Widening its bouquet of fiction offerings, the channel will present an epic fantasy with a unique andaaz Vikram Betaal Ki Rahasya Gaatha. One of its most ambitious projects, the show promises great grandeur, a visual extravaganza in a conceptually never-seen-before avatar. In a larger-than-life narrative of the captivating worlds of the courageous King Vikramaditya, wise Betaal, the show will bring back classic stories with a modern take, making it relevant to current times and portraying the universal tussle between good and evil. Upping the uniqueness is the introduction of the epitome of evil, Bhadrakaal – a television first.
Vishnu Shankar, Head, &TV said, “As society develops and people’s ethos progress, we capture the change and reflect this sentiment in the entertainment we provide to our audience. Ever since its inception, we at &TV believe in psychographics, not demographics – targeting a contemporary blooming mindset. Our new brand campaign pays tribute to today’s &dian. As we move forward, we will present Khaas stories and engage our viewers in our unique Andaaz, in line with the brand motto.
As &TV grows onwards and upwards, the channel identity will reflect in its content design and exciting line-up in the months to come.
