Crime
journalist committed to social cause
Gurgaon, November 20
We all know him well as a crime journalist-cum-anchor with long hair and beard,
screaming “chain se sona hai to jaag jayiye" (with his typical twist of
hands), on his show,” Sansani: Jaago...Sone Waalon”, aired on Star News,
where he is always trying to show us the real face of criminals. But only a few
people know that other than anchoring a crime-based show, Shrivardhan Trivedi
feels strongly for the poor children. He is trying to teach them through acting
and many of his students even got a chance to act in Bollywood movies like
“Omkara” and “Blue Umbrella”. |
