Former
Miss LA India, Reshma Dordi began her career while attending
college with the launch of Palken Radio, featuring South
Asian music and
entertainment. This program continues to dominate
airwaves in Southern
California. After graduating with a degree in Communications
with an emphasis in Broadcast Journalism, she joined CNN’s
Showbiz Today, where she learned the ropes of producing and
directing a television show. Pearl Entertainment Inc., was
established in the same year under her supervision.
Thereafter, she worked with
the Disney channel as a producer/writer
during their launch in Asia. Since then, Pearl
Entertainment Inc., has hosted
events such as movie premiers, beauty pageants, and
charitable events such as “Great Stars for a Great Cause.”
This upscale cruise was attended by
Bollywood Superstars, Amitabh Bachchan, Sanjay Dutt, Suniel
Shetty and other prominent personalities, raising funds for
the children of the victims of the September 11th tragedy.
Reshma was the first NRI to
host the prestigious Femina Miss India
Beauty Pageant, which was telecast live for the first time
in its history to a
viewership of over 30 million. This was the historical
year Sushmita Sen and Aishwarya Rai were felicitated. She
returned to host the following year where she interviewed
international supermodel Cindy Crawford.
In 1998, she launched
Showbiz India Television, a magazine
entertainment show on Bollywood. Now over a decade
later, Showbiz India
Television has become a leader in South Asian Entertainment,
airing nationwide and now globally. Since then the
company has grown to producer other television series such
Showbiz India Extreme airing on Zee TV in India, a
successful offshoot with original content. Pearl
Entertainment continues to expand its production division
with creation and production of high-end commercials for
nationwide corporate clients and has recently incorporated a
PR Division servicing select clients and organizations.
