Saibaba Studio’s new music reality show Suron Ka Eklavya is currently being telecast on Doordarshan. The show aims to pay a tribute to the three pillars of playback singing from the music industry — the legendary Mohammad Rafi, Kishore Kumar and Lata Mangeshkar — with gharanas named after them. The judges have finally selected eight participants for each of their teams. However, Ismail Darbar could only select six!

Ismal Darbar shares, “They are all very talented singers and extremely dedicated to music, but I have a specific criteria which they could not fulfill.”

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
