New Delhi: After lighting up over 55 villages in India through TERI's Lighting a Billion Lives initiative, NDTV Greenathon is back with its second edition to provide solar lanterns to villages that would otherwise be without electricity for a decade or more.

It's the first of its kind green initiative for the environment. India's first ever 24-hour live event, The Greenathon, will be telecast across all NDTV channels from March 6-7 to raise awareness about the environment and find ways to create a cleaner, greener tomorrow. The event starts at 7 pm today.

NDTV's Vikram Chandra, Cyrus Brocha and our Green ambassador for this year, Priyanka Chopra, will host the show, which promises a whole lot star performances, including a 100-km run by Milind Soman. (Watch: Priyanka Chopra: Fashionably Green) | (Irrfan's Green mile)
