Divyanka Tripathi to debut as television host with The Voice India

Currently seen in the Ekta Kapoor-produced top-rated daily soap Yeh Hai Mohabbatein, one of the highest paid Indian television actresses Divyanka Tripathi is set to add yet another feather to her creative cap.

If reports are to be believed, the television star has been signed on to host Star Plus’ upcoming singing reality show The Voice India. While Divyanka has appeared on a couple of reality shows as a contestant, this is going to be the first time when she turns the host for any such series.


The Voice India, based on the original Dutch version of the program created by John de Mol, was until now telecast on &TV, a Hindi language entertainment channel owned by Zee Entertainment Enterprises. But the latest season of the singing reality show will hit the airwaves on Star Plus.

The channel is planning to launch the show in February. Adnan Sami, Armaan Malik, Harshdeep Kaur and Kanika Kapoor have joined forces to judge the show. Buzz has it that Academy Award-winner A.R. Rahman is also a part of the show as a super judge.

More details are awaited.
