THE Emmy-nominated show Top Chef returns with all-brand new episodes in a second season on AXN every Thursday at 8 pm. This hit reality-competition series brings you into the highly competitive environment of world-class restaurant kitchens. This season, the scene shifts to the frenetically paced, diverse cuisine destination of Los Angeles. Descending on the city are 15 chefs, considered to be the brightest up-and-coming talents in the culinary world. Their skills are put to the test for the chance to earn them $100,000 and the prestigious title of "Top Chef". Hosting the show is the beautiful Indian supermodel Padma Lakshmi. She will introduce the challenges to the contestants and judge the show.

Jungle tales

Sanjaya Malakar, the Indian who almost became an American Idol, is back in the most buzzed-about reality series, I’m a Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here! The show, being aired on Monday 9 pm on Star World, is based on the popular UK series Fear Factor. A group of stars from Hollywood is dropped into the Costa Rican jungle and forced to fend for themselves. The stars compete in a series of stomach-churning challenges to win luxury items, avoid elimination and earn public votes. The viewers decide who will be crowned the winner. The show’s timing seems bit curious as it has started airing around the same time as Sony’s similar show in Hindi, Is Jungle Se Mujhe Bachao being shot in a Malaysian jungle. NF
