Speaking at the launch, the makers share their intent behind the show. “We understand that a lot of striking faces hail from different cities of our country, but aren’t equipped with means to groom or conduct themselves. Glam Fame is a step towards turning their dreams into reality,” says Joshi.
Neil, who joins the show in the capacity as a judge says, When I started out in my career, I was not a very confident young person. I had reservations and doubts coming my way. But, I believe that for a person, the most important factor in grooming is confidence. If you’re confident enough, you can easily carry yourself well and present yourself in a room full of people.”
Dabboo, who shot the initial portfolios of Hrithik Roshan, John Abraham and Katrina Kaif, speaks about coming on-board as a mentor. He says, “I love interacting with younger people as it gives me a perspective and I’m able to share constructive views with them.”
The show also sees Sunny Leone and Esha Gupta join Neil as co-judges on the show.
Glam Fame Season 1 will officially premiere on OTT soon.
