Everything about Aamir Khan is incredible and when he makes his debut on television, it again has to be very special and this is the way it has turned out to be.
It is learnt from the sources that as the first episode of the superstar's debut TV show Satyamev Jayate was aired, about 100,000 people dialed in to speak to him to initiate a serious discussion on social issues facing the nation.
Out of approximately 100,000 people who made the effort of calling in to share their views about the show through the Airtel Talk2me, only around 10 or 11 were actually able to speak to Aamir due to time constraints, said a source from telecom company Airtel, which is facilitating the SMS and dial-in procedures for Satyamev Jayate. Revenue from each SMS will be donated to charity.
Nevertheless, Aamir engaged in quality discussions with the callers. He shared views on social activist Anna Hazare's movement against corruption, took up issues regarding female foeticide - the doctors who conduct sex determination tests and abort the girl child, and how the medical system of the country fails to take any action against such law breakers.
Though a lot of people tuned in to watch the show, and subsequently took to social networking platforms to share their views on it, Aamir says Television Rating Points (TRPs) do not matter.
