पारूल बुधराजा,  सत्यमेव जयते, जी हां इसी नाम से बॉलीवुड के मिस्टर परफेक्शनिस्ट के नाम से मशहूर आमिर खान ने स्टार  टीवी के साथ मिलकर एक प्रोग्राम बनाया है जिसकी शुरुआत 6 मई को होगी | आमिर खान का कहना है कि पहले स्टार टीवी ने उनके सामने एक गेम शो का प्रस्ताव रखा था पर वे कहते है कि वे रटी रटाई बातें नहीं करना चाहते और ना ही उनका लक्ष्य पैसा कमाना है | आमिर ने यह बताया कि " मैं सिर्फ बताए हुए सवालों पर ही दर्शकों से बात नहीं करना चाहता था गेम शो को मैं इतना एंजॉय नहीं कर पाता जितना इस शो को कर  पाउंगा। मुझे भी मजा आता है लोगों को हारते या जीतते हुए देखकर लेकिन मुझे नहीं लगता कि बार-बार एक जैसे सवाल पूछना कोई मजेदार काम है। इसीलिए मैंने उस वक्त गेम शो के लिए मना कर दिया था।" इस शो को बनाने का उनका मकसद समाज में कुछ सार्थक बदलाव लाने का है । जब चैनल वालो ने मुझसे पुछा के मैं क्या करना चाहता हूँ तब मैंने कई महीने सोचने के बाद अपनी एक टीम बनाई  और चल पड़ा अपने सफ़र पर | मैं उस वक्त आश्वस्त नहीं था कि यह टीवी शो बन पाएगा या नहीं। लेकिन मैंने खुद से कहा इसी बहाने हमें भारत की विभिन्न संस्कृतियों से रुबरू होने और नई जगह देखने का मौका मिलेगा जो हमें बहुत कुछ सिखाएगा।  जब इस शो कि तैयारी शुरू हुई  तब आमिर ने  तीन चीजें मांगी पहली यह कि यह अलग-अलग भाषाओं में हो। क्योंकि अगर हमें लोगों के दिल को छूना है तो उनकी भाषा में बात करनी होगी। मेरी कोशिश यह होनी चाहिए कि यह लोगों तक उनकी जुबान में पहुंचे। दूसरी यह कि यह प्रोग्राम दूरदर्शन पर भी आना चाहिए क्योंकि हिंदुस्तान में बहुत सी ऐसी भी जगह हैं जहां सिर्फ दूरदर्शन ही पहुंचता है। और आखिर में आमिर ने कहा कि इस कार्यक्रम को मैं प्राइम टाइम पर नहीं बल्कि रविवार को सुबह ग्यारह बजे दिखाना चाहता हूं| मैं चाहता था कि परिवार इस शो को एक साथ मिलकर देखे, सुकून से बैठकर। आखिर रामायण और महाभारत जैसे मेगा सीरियल भी इसी समय चलते थे और सड़कों पर सन्नाटा छा जाता था।

Then Natu kaka is hard of hearing and works at Jetha’s shop. The story is about the incidents in their lives and how all this affects other inhabitants of the building.
