Colors has announced the launch of its new fantasy fiction show titled ‘Bekaaboo’. Produced by Ekta Kapoor’s Balaji Telefilms, the show will premiere on 18th March and air every Saturday and Sunday at 9 PM.
Starring Shalin Bhanot, Eisha Singh and Monalisa in the roles of rakshas, pari and an antagonist, the fantasy drama captures the journey of a pari and rakshas, who share an ancestral enmity, but unpredictably fall in love. The show also stars popular actors Zain Imam and Shivangi Joshi in pivotal roles.
‘Bekaaboo’ revolves around a college-going girl Bela (Eisha Singh) with telepathic powers whose life changes as she meets a shy boy Ranav (Shalin Bhanot). Oblivious to their mystical legacies, both are caught in the age-old rivalry between the families of two powerful forces – pari and rakshas. After discovering their true identities as descendants of pari and rakshas, Bela and Ranav are torn between their love for each other and their quest to navigate the complexities of the multiverse.
