Star India just announced that TED Talks will officially be a thing in India. Titled ‘TED Talks India: Nayi Soch’, the show is created in partnership with TED, which is a non-profit devoted to ‘ideas worth sharing’. This new Hindi version of the show will follow the format of the original one with short and powerful talks and will be hosted by none other than Shah Rukh Khan.

‘TED Talks India: Nayi Soch’ will be the first time that TED Talks will be broadcast in a language other than English in a collaboration with a major network and a mega-star.
