While reality shows and talent hunt contests is the norm of television these days, an initiative started by a city-based researcher and social worker wants to discover hidden talents among the underprivileged.
For the past one year, Praveen Prem Shukla, a 30-year-old clinical researcher has been actively driving Being Social, an organisation that operates in seven cities and caters to the lesser privileged in areas such as as safety and hygiene. In the past one year, the voluntary base has grown to over 500 in Bengaluru.
