Perfect teamwork

Former Indian cricketer Sourav Ganguly's straight-talk is legendary. On Sunday, he was in his elements after the first episode of the reality TV show to encourage start-ups in West Bengal, Egiye Bangla, was aired.

"Dada (Ganguly) and Didi (Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee) are the best team. Dada is a little better," he said. Produced by Banerjee's government, the show is her brainchild to spur talent at home as big industry is proving elusive. Ganguly is the brand ambassador of the show.
