I have never been happier to see Baba Ramdev’s grin. I just didn’t want the channel to go back to Zara. Of course, nobody cared about what I wanted. Within minutes, Arijit was back, this time with something he called ‘an esteemed’ panel.

How do they line up so many jobless people from different areas of expertise so fast?
