how to achieve and maintain it? Millions of people now realize that
health just doesn't come from prescribed medicines but requires
a lot more dedication and willingness to make changes in one's lifestyle.
Our wellness band is going to provide such programming which will
further encourage our viewers to live a complete, healthy and natural
lifestyle but with lot of fun. The innovative programming will showcase
a mix of good food, fun workouts, rejuvenating spas, recognizing

of work, stress, relationships, financial pressures, health crisis
and "expectation overload" from all quarters...uncontrollable
anger leading to hypertension, diabetes, spinal problems, loss in
eyesight and a receding hairline. With such a hectic lifestyle,
it's easy to lose track of the small things that can make a difference
and prevent future health and lifestyle problems. Men must wake
up and acknowledge that THERE IS A PROBLEM and MUST DO something
about it, STARTING NOW! Watch Men's HQ with actor Samir Kochhar
who with his dry, subtle yet distinct sense of humour and well chiseled
body takes on a journey with ordinary men who have transformed their

their attitude, efficiency and relationships.... both at work and
