New Delhi: Times Now’s coveted 8pm show is all set to get a new host as Pranesh Kumar Roy gets ready to take the helm of “IndiaUpfront.” Starting today, viewers can catch Roy every weeknight at 8 PM as he brings his extensive experience and sharp journalistic acumen to the forefront.
Changing of the Guard
“IndiaUpfront” has seen a series of high-profile changes in its hosting lineup over the past few months. Initially anchored by Rahul Shivshankar, the show gained a reputation for its dynamic and uncompromising style. However, Shivshankar’s departure to join CNN-News18 marked the beginning of a transitional phase for the program. Following his exit, Padmaja Joshi stepped in as the host, continuing the legacy of incisive reporting and compelling debates. Joshi’s tenure, though impactful, was short-lived as she too parted ways with Times Now last week.
A Familiar Face Returns
Pranesh Kumar Roy’s appointment as the new host of “IndiaUpfront” brings a sense of familiarity and continuity to the program. Roy, who has been a part of the Times Now family for a significant period, is no stranger to the channel’s audience. His previous stints, including his work with NewsX, have established him as a seasoned journalist with a knack for deep analysis and engaging presentation.
