The other Indians who featured on the cover included Mahatma Gandhi, Sania Mirza, Indira Gandhi, Rajiv Gandhi and Narendra Modi. Mahatma Gandhi had made it to the cover three times. Aamir Khan’s show ‘Satyamev Jayate’ has been grabbing plenty of attention due to its sensitive subjects every week. The show even garnered plenty of TRPs and the impact on the audience has been noteworthy. Aamir started off the show with the issue of female foeticide and then continued to bring out new subjects which were otherwise not new to the society.
