Denver Naicker’s Get Real Talk Show moves to DStv

KwaZulu-Natal talk show host Denver Naicker is expanding his popular program, The Get Real Talk Show, to a predominantly African channel on DStv. The move marks a significant shift for the seven-year-old show, which began as an Indian-focused platform. Naicker, a retail manager from Chatsworth now residing in Morningside, has been working in the media industry for over eight years.

The show, which focuses on influential people, inspirational stories, and the journeys of successful individuals, will retain its core identity while expanding its audience. Naicker hopes the shift will allow him to become a voice for empowerment and motivation in KwaZulu-Natal and South Africa. The programme will also introduce more isiZulu into its content to connect with its expanded audience.

Naicker sees the move as a milestone, both personally and for the show, and believes it will bring different cultures together. He is proud to introduce a taste of Indian culture to the African audience, while promoting the diversity of South Africa. The transition has been in the works for some time and follows the conclusion of the show's seven-year journey.

Naicker said the show's existing team would remain in place, and the programme will continue to encourage viewers to speak out about issues affecting them.
