Madhavan
Will
Question
&
Explore
The
Stars'
Lives
The
agenda
of
the
show
with
a
new
format
is
to
explore
the
lives
of
prominent
personalities,
in
order
to
understand
whether
they
were
to
be
different
or
have
risen
to
great
heights
from
real-life
experiences.
Madhavan
will
be
helped
by
scientists
and
psychoanalysts
to
achieve
the
same.
He
Explains
Further
"We
enjoy
watching
each
ball
rushing
towards
the
fence
from
Virat's
bat.
And
the
excellence
that
Kamal
Hassan
brings
to
the
silver
screen.
But
sometimes,
we
all
sit
back
and
wonder
--
what
really
has
made
these
Icons
what
they
are
today?
Were
these
personalities
just
born
to
be
great,
and
their
success
defined
from
day
one?
Or
did
their
journey
through
life,
their
experiences
and
hard
work,
really
shape
them
into
the
giants
we
revere."
He
Is
Excited
Madhavan
told
India
TV
in
a
statement,
"I
am
excited
to
join
National
Geographic
to
decode
this
mystery,
and
bring
to
viewers
a
completely
new
and
incredible
perspective
of
what
really
goes
into
making
an
Icon."
Shruti
Takulia
Confirms
Shruti
Takulia,
the
head
of
Productions,
National
Geographic
and
Fox
Networks,
said,
"With
Mega
Icons,
we
aim
to
dive
deep
into
the
lives
of
India's
most
exalted
men
and
women
to
find
the
answer
to
an
elusive
question
--
are
geniuses
born
or
made?
To
start
this
conversation,
we
are
glad
to
bring
R.
Madhavan
on
board
as
the
host
for
the
series."
She
Praised
Madhavan
"Having
appeared
in
films
from
seven
different
languages
donned
multiple
hats
of
actor,
writer,
producer
and
television
host,
Madhavan
has
a
national
appeal
and
an
astute
and
curious
mind.
We
are
certain
that
he,
along
with
the
scientists
and
experts
featured
in
our
series,
will
be
able
to
feed
the
curiosity
of
our
viewers,
who
are
always
on
a
lookout
for
unique
ways
to
comprehend
the
power
of
science
and
exploration."
