Infotainment fare with conservation message
Petroleum Conservation Research Association (PCRA), an apex body under the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gases, has recently produced a 13-episode infotainment TV programme, ‘Khel Khel Me Badalo Duniya’, to convey the message of oil conservation to the masses.
The various aspects of petroleum exploration, refining, research and usage, as well as the different aspects of its conservation have been well discussed and depicted in order to sensitise the people on this vital issue and motivate them to actively conserve precious resources in their day to day life.
In the programme, participants have been asked to choose a topic on the theme of oil conservation and address it in their own special way. Participants include schools and colleges students from different parts of the country. There are some episodes in which teachers and students, young and old, males and females, self-employed professionals and government employed professionals also compete with each other for better idea.
The programme is divided into four segments. The first segment, ‘Kuch Kar Diikhana Hai’, is a performance based round where the participating teams are free to perform dance, drama, mimicry, parody, etc. on the theme of oil conservation.
The second segment, ‘Duniya Badalne Ki Baat’, covers success stories of organisations and persons who have made a difference in the life of others through their determination and sustained efforts.
It is aimed at motivating the youths to emulate and excel in life. Rajendra Singh, who is involved in water harvesting projects in Rajasthan, is featured as one of the success stories.
In the third segment ‘Aakde Bolte Hai’, the participants are shown interesting facts and figures based on energy conservation.
The programme ends with ‘Ek Choti Si Baat’, in which eminent personalities including Jagjit Singh, Swapan Sundari, Sudhir Tailang, Javed Akhatar deliver a message on the theme of oil conservation. The whole programme has been conceptualised by a well-known TV producer Leena Mehendale.
The main anchor of the programme is Kishen Bhutani, a well-known name in the audio-visual circuit.
