This is such a chilled out concept and something that has never been done before in India. The sheer simplicity of the idea and the fact that this show is highly interactive is what attracted me to it. The idea here is that it's a show which is to be enjoyed by relaxing! That's why we came up with the concept of Aaram Classes...we want people to chill out and play this game. There's no stress, no tension involved at all! So tune in to learn 'aaram' and get ready for Bingo"
