It was no surprise when NDTV Imagine’s newly appointed chief Sameer Nair showed up at the premiere of Vikram Bhatt’s “Life Mein Kabhi Kabhie”. After all, it is his sister-in-law Anjori Alagh’s debut film.

Anjori is the younger sister of his wife Sawari.

“Actually, I was watching the film for the second time. And I enjoyed it even more. Anjori is a surprise. She’s been abroad all her life. But she fits in so well with the Bollywood grammar. And I am not saying this because she’s my sister-in-law,” Nair told IANS.

Nair also appreciated Sammir Dattani’s performance in the film.

“The other performance that took me by surprise was Sammir - very confident and intense. We had been trying to get him to do things on STAR for a long time. It’s interesting to see talent like Anjori and Sammir emerge as the future.”

And yes, Nair will be using the two for film-based software on NTDV Imagine.

Not only that, Nair wants to direct a film. That’s how much he loves movies. And it is a known fact that the high-profile Nair has a deep filmy connection.

If we go by the buzz Shah Rukh Khan and Nair bonded so well over “Kaun Banega Crorepati” at STAR, the enterprising Nair is now planning something really big at NDTV with the superstar. That Karan Johar is also part of the channel will certainly help.
