Mandira to play 'Deal Ya No Deal' with dabbawalas
After railway porters, traffic policemen and auto rickshaw drivers, Sony TV's game show "Deal Ya No Deal" has invited Mumbai's famous 'dabbawalas' to play the game with Mandira Bedi.
Sudhir Dabbawala will play the game and his 22 colleagues will enjoy the fun and thrills as part of the audience at 9 p.m. Feb 24.
The dabbawalas are members of the labour-intensive firm called Nutan Mumbai Tiffin Box Suppliers Association. Around 5,000 semi-literate people work with this group to transport 175,000 lunch boxes in a three-hour period every day.
They use public transportation over 25 km and the process involves multiple transfer points at a high level of quality.
The dabbawalas even impressed Prince Charles with their innocence and commitment to work. This time round, they will please Indian viewers on the game show.
The second series of "Deal Ya No Deal" with Mandira has given the show greater interactivity and made it a complete reality game show.
The show will continue with its simple and easy format. No difficult questions, no muscle power, only one mantra - Deal Ya No Deal.
