is
making
his
television
debut

TV
series
of
the
same
name.
The

will
be

and
Saturday
at

pm

"I
am
getting
nervous
to
announce
the
show
date.
It
is
a
great
moment
of
my
life.
There
is
excitment....
I
am
thankful,
grateful
to
all
actors,
technicians
and
others.
They
all
have
given
their
sweat
and
blood," Kapoor
told
reporters.
When
asked
if
Sonam
Kapoor
might
act
in
the
show,
Anil
said,
"
Sonam
Kpaoor
might
do
24
show
season
2.
If
she
fits
the
character
he
will
ask
her
and
if
she
wants
she
can
be
the
part
of
the
show.
But
he
also
said
just
because
of
him
Sonam
will
not
do
the
show.
Only
of
she
thinks
she
wants
to
do
it
then
only
she
will
say
yes."
Raj
Nayak,
CEO
of
Colors
channel,
revealed
that
Kapoor
was
nervous
about
the
press
conference
today
as
he
had
earlier
sent
him
a
message,
asking
to
push
it
off
by
a
week.
"We
had
to
drop
shows
for
'24'.
We
feel
this
show
suits
weekend
slot,"
he
added.
"I
have
had
a
lot
of
peaks
in
my
career,
but
there
are
certain
moments
that
you
want
to
soak
in
and
this
is
that
moment.
I
feel
this
is
the
greatest
moment
of
my
life,"
said
the
actor.
"We
thought
weekend
slot
should
be
good.
All
the
working
people
can
come
home
and
watch
it.
It
was
a
strategy
to
get
both
Salman
Khan
(as
'Bigg
Boss
7' host)
and
Anil
Kapoor
back
to
back,"
Raj
Nayak,
chief
executive-Colors,
