In a continuation of its press-the-panic-button-react-in-a-kneejerk manner Zee TV has given veteran actor Anupam Kher marching orders from its game show Sawal Dus Crore Ka. The management is reportedly pointing fingers at Kher for the game show's not so impressive ratings and has hence shown him the door. Replacing him is Hindi-belt actor Ashutosh Rana as the show's co-host with actress Manisha Koirala. 

Observers say the Zee programming and production team and senior management are behaving like a fish gasping for its last breath and flailing out in a bid to stay alive. But they should remember panic in a difficult situation never did anyone any good.
