Our source reveals, "Rajeev Khandelwal will host the show. Shooting for the initial episodes has begun in Madrid, Spain.
The contestants on the show will be celebrities; actors, politicians and sportspersons among others.
Interestingly, the contestants on the international version are people who lead ordinary lives."
Strength-testerSays Siddharth Basu, "Pre-production of the Indian version of Moment of Truth is on by Big Synergy for Star Plus, and will shortly go on the floors.
A pilot was shot in Madrid, on the sets of the Spanish version of the show, and focus tested here in India.
We are looking for candidates, celebrities or otherwise, who have lived a full life, and who are open, courageous, and honest enough to see how far they can go with the truth.
Ours is a truly revealing show going into the hearts and minds of those brave enough to face the truth of their thoughts and actions.
The questions are very personal and will test the strength of a person's honesty, values and relationships."
When asked if SRK showed an interest in doing the show (as some reports stated), he replies, "If Shah Rukh showed interest in hosting the show, I'm not aware of it."
On being prodded about the prize money on offer, he cryptically states, "The rewards for telling the truth on difficult questions are handsome."
He remains tightlipped about other details surrounding the show, only adding, "The host, size of the prize, time and schedule of telecast will be announced in due course of time by the channel."
Our source says the show is expected to air sometime early June, this year. It is also learnt that the contestants on the opening episode will include Vinod Kambli and Urvashi Dholakia.
