Today, the Indian finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman presented the Union Budget 2023-24 and even before the she started her speech, debates and discussions were taking place on many news channels as to what can be the highlights of the budget 2023-24.
Nowadays the news channels don’t miss a chance to conduct debates and discussions on even small issues so how they could have missed the opportunity of conducting debates on budget but Aaj Tak went a step further and did something which nobody even imagined. While all the other news channels will be having debates in their studios, Aaj Tak has booked the complete seating of FlyDining Restaurant which is in Noida and their team comprising of anchors, panelists and camerapersons will shoot their show Budget ki Udaan at the height of 160 feet above the ground.
FlyDining restaurant gives a unique experience of dining above several feet above the ground and this must be the first time that the country’s budget will be discussed at such a height.
Anjana Om Kashyap, the senior executive editor and news anchor at Aaj Tak, shared the promotional video on her Twitter handle with the caption, “ऐसा शो आपने कभी नहीं देखा होगा! आजतक पर सबसे पहले! बजट की उड़ान!”

गज़ब का मजाक बना दिया है ब्रॉडकास्ट मीडिया ने न्यूज़ को! ऐसी तिगड्म से ध्यान खींचने और रिकॉर्ड बनाने से ज्यादा अच्छा: सरलतम तरीके से बजट से आकांक्षायें और जुड़े सवाल पर चर्चा हो। क्योंकि ऐसा ही ट्रेंड चला तो एंकर की जगह स्टंटमैन और प्रोड्यूसर की जगह मदारी भर्ती करने होंगे।

No one will laugh, this is the national journalism of democratic @aajtak. Discussion on the budget in the heights of the sky! 🤦🏻♂️

पत्रकारिता कम होती जा रही है और नौटंकी बढ़ती जा रही है। दर्शकों को अलग फील कराने की कोशिश होती है। जबकि कोशिश उनतक अधिक से अधिक जानकारी पहुंचाने की होनी चाहिए।

When the standards of journalism are down below the ground, such things need to be done to make it look high. Well tried.
