Press ReleaseFree South Asian/Indian Dating Web Site Announces Casting Call for Dating Reality SeriesHOUSTON, Jan. 29, 2008 -- Mastidating.com is not only a place where South Asian and Indian singles can meet, it's a site filled with contests, events and multimedia. Think of it as online dating meets Bollywood, "Extreme Makeover" and "Blind Date."Unlike other online dating sites, Mastidating.com is free. "By keeping the site free," said co-founder Edwin Dantas, "more people have a chance to find love and try the convenience of online dating." He explains that "masti" is a Hindi word meaning "fun and innocent mischief." Dantas, 30, launched the site in 2007, along with Joseph Pothen and Anish Elam. "We were couple of guys looking for love in all the wrong places," commented Elam, "so we decided to build the right place." He emphasizes that, while Mastidating.com attracts singles, its focus is on the adventure and excitement of dating. "We're also developing video seminars and articles on dating etiquette," he said. Free membership at Mastidating.com includes: -- Exclusive access to Mastidating.com events -- Member rewards -- Prize giveaways -- VIP Nights -- Destination dates In 2007, Mastidating.com sponsored three member events in Houston, each attracting 200-300 people. This year, events are planned for New York, Chicago, Dallas, Las Vegas. Its VIP Nights include group dates for five men and five women, dating packages and access to exclusive events. Destination dates bring together members from two different regions in a surprise locale to learn about each other and to experience the exotic locale's culture and entertainment. This year, however, Mastidating.com promises to give a select group of its members the ultimate exposure to potential mates via a reality series. The series will air online, and launch on TV on some of the premiere South Asian networks as well. Set to begin filming early this year, the series will feature cast members from the site's database. Series participants - starting with one couple for the first episode - will receive a $5,000 prize package including: -- A fashion makeover -- Spa treatment -- Dinner at a 5-star restaurant -- First-class flights -- Limousine transportation -- 4-star hotel accommodations "The online dating industry is still evolving," concluded Dantas. "Singles are moving away from paid online dating sites toward free alternatives like Mastidating." Contact: Joseph Pothen http://www.Mastidating.com info@mastidating.com |
