A film on TV sting journalism is releasing on October 5. Aaj Tak covered it in detail, and had a panel discussion on it. The channel kept stressing that Koel Purie played the main role. They might have told us in the interests of disclosure that she was Aaj Tak proprietor Aroon Purie's daughter. It brought back memories of the film Amu being promoted on NDTV. The director of that film, Shonali Bose, is a niece of proprietor Prannoy Roy, whose sister-in-law, Brinda Karat, also starred in the film. (courtesy www.thehoot.org)
