Premiering on February 22 on News9 and News9 Plus, the series will bring thought-provoking conversations where both the host and the guest challenge accepted ideas and norms to surface fresh perspectives.
Season 3 promises to be a compelling watch, according to a media statement yesterday from TV9 group, featuring an eclectic mix of visionaries, industry leaders and cultural icons.

Speaking about the return of ‘Duologue’, TV9 Network MD and show host Das said, “‘Duologue’ is not an interview, it is a cerebral exchange of ideas that goes beyond the headlines. It is a deep dive into the minds of visionaries, thought leaders, and changemakers who shape our world. This series is designed to spark thought-provoking discussions that challenge conventions, unravel new perspectives, and inspire meaningful dialogue.
“With Season 3, we continue this pursuit, curating an ensemble of luminaries whose insights shape industries, societies, and ideologies. These conversations extend beyond personal journeys into the realm of transformative thought, exploring the philosophies and convictions that drive human progress. At TV9 Network, we remain steadfast in our mission to cultivate intellectually stimulating narratives that inform, inspire, and ignite critical discourse.”
Amar Sinha, the Chief Operating Officer of Radico Khaitan Limited, a sponsor, stated, “We’re thrilled to be teaming up with ‘Duologue and Barun Das’ for the second time. The conversations in this series are far from ordinary; they push boundaries and provide Radico with a chance to connect with a diverse audience.”
The show will be amplified through an extensive promotional campaign across News9 Live, News9 Plus and regional channels of the TV9 Network, ensuring maximum impact.
