Doordarshan Mumbai has been in the forefront
of creating events/ programs which are
meaningful and connect with the society at

Agriculture, Education, Information &
Entertainment programs form a part of
Doordarshan’s DNA. Sahyadri has been
creating potential program content on girl
child education, women empowerment, health
awareness, inspirational programs for the
youth and Informative programs designed to
strengthen the farmers in rural India.
For the first time in the history of Indian
Television DD Sahyadri has decided to launch a
unique program to create understanding
among the people on the noble cause of
“ORGAN DONATION”. The channel intends to
create awareness among the masses towards
the concept of cadaver & live organ donation.
The following participant’s experiences and
their life changing stories apart from Doctor’s,
NGO’s and others who are connected in this
entire chain of organ donation forms a major
part of this awareness program. Special AV’s
have been created of the organ recipients’ &
donor’s participating in this program.
1) Prashant Jain, Nisha Jain – cadaver Donor
2) Ratnadeep Motiwale – Cadaver Recipient
3) Manoj Patel – Liver Recipient - (Cousin
Brother) Manilal Patel – Liver Donor (Live)
4) Abhimanyu Salunkhe – Cadaver Donor
5) Bhimrao Patil – Cadaver Recipient
6) Dynaraj Patkar – Kidney Recipient -

The innovative program has been
conceptualized and designed by Shri Mukesh
Sharma, Addl. DG – DD Mumbai “who believes
that sensitizing people and educating them to
donate organs is the need of the hour and is
himself pledged to donate his organs for the
cause of humanity”.
The program is greatly supported by the entire
ZTCC (Zonal Transplant Co-ordination Centre,
Mumbai) Team, especially Dr. Gustad B. Daver,
President of ZTCC & Dr. Sujata Patwradan.
Actor, Amir Khan who himself had pledged to
donate all his usable organs came specially at
DD Mumbai to record his appeal on organ

the occasion as the Chief Guests for this
evening. And had also extended her support by
associating LIC with this program as the title
sponsor.
