Nagaland girl, Temsutula Imsong to feature in TV show hosted by Amitabh Bachchan

The best kind of joy is in being recognized for your efforts and the perfect paragon is Nagaland girl, Temsutula Imsong.
After having received adulation from none other than Prime Minister Narendra Modi for her endless efforts to clean Prabhu ghat, Imsong is all set to feature in a weekly popular show hosted by Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan, for bringing in a change in society and working as an inspiration for others.The episode is expected to go on air on December 6 (Sunday).
Talking to TOI on Wednesday, Imsong said, “The very theme of the show which celebrates the initiatives of ordinary people towards the society and showcases their journey is commendable. When our team 'Mission Parijat' (earlier called Mission Prabhu ghat) was approached by the crew members of the show in mid-October, we were exhilarated. The shooting in the city spanned two days and all the places undertaken by us including Chet Singh ghat, Prabhu ghat, Babua Pandey ghat, Sonebhadra kund were all covered in the shoot.”

Imsong had started off with Mission Prabhu Ghat in March this year, as a part of which, a team of youth volunteers carried out massive cleanliness drives at Prabhu Ghat situated along the Ganga. Their efforts had also helped them garner appreciation from PM Narendra Modi on his social networking page on April 1.
Recalling her 'dream-come-true' moment and the rendezvous with megastar Amitabh Bachchan in city of dreams, Mumbai, Imsong said, “It feels like I am still dreaming. The feeling is yet to sink in. I, along with a fellow team member Vishal Singh, had flown to Mumbai on November 24 to shoot the episode with Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan. Initially, the whole ambiance made me jittery but as I set the foot on stage, Amitabhji (Amitabh Bachchan) made us comfortable and at home.”
It was an altogether different experience as we were filled with acute nostalgia and relived those initial days when we would sweat it out on ghats and continue to do so even today, she added. Shishir Bajpai and Kalpana Ravi from Mumbai, who have been associated with Imsong and team Parijat via social media platform, also gave company to her in Mumbai. The episode will also feature a television celebrity on the show, shared Imsong.
Terming this feat as a motivating force for her team members, Imsong said, “Meeting our inspiration, Modiji (PM Narendra Modi) here at Diesel Locomotive Works (DLW) in September was what felt like an accomplishment to all of us. And, now getting attention from megastar himself is what lifts our spirits to keep us focused on what we have been doing and continue it to make a difference in society.”
We have been receiving great response from everyone via social media platforms and people, especially youths, from over 30 cities have joined in our campaign for a cleaner Varanasi and cleaner India.
