Ram Kapoor will be back on the small screen hosting a new show, Zindagi Ke Crossroads. The show will air from 6th June 2018 and on Wednesdays to Fridays. In fact, Salman Khan's Dus Ka Dum 3 will also be going on air from 4th June 2018 but will only air on Mondays and Tuesdays. Ram's show got the 8.30 pm slot. The Bade Achhe Lagte Hai actor spoke to the media at the launch and said, "Before I compare myself to Salman, I think I will just shoot myself (laughs), but honestly, it’s not even crossed my mind. In all the roles that I’ve done till date, I’ve made my audiences laugh, cry and smile; this is the first time that I get audiences to think and converse. This show is bigger than anyone of us. While I would refrain from giving opinions, I will do get the people to share their views openly."

Speaking about hosting the show, he said, "I really love doing it because anchoring is the time, when I can just be me and not try to portray a character. And that really excites me. I like being spontaneous. I don’t follow any scripts too much and just go with the flow. I think that’s my strength because an anchor should be spontaneous and build that connect with the viewers."

He added, "My weakness is that I don’t have a command on the language like Amitabh Bachchan Sir has it. When he speaks, you just want to hear him forever and ever, and I wish I could do that." Ram also said that he would love to have his kids watch the show, too. He said, "I am very excited, proud and nervous because this is a very different concept. Also, kids very often watch my shows and I like that because it gives me nice positive feeling. This is one show that I will get my own children to watch as the stories are lessons for life." What are your thoughts on this? Tell us in the comments below and stay tuned with us for more.
