Speaking on the announcement, Mr. Siju Prabhakaran, South Cluster Head, Zee Entertainment Enterprises Limited said, “The 3 shows – Poove Poochudava, Yaaradi Nee Mohini and Sembarathi have proved to be very fruitful for us in terms of audience engagement and ratings – with one show such as Yaaradi Nee Mohini breaking the clutter with its nail-biting content, and a new-comer Sembaruthi with off-the-roof TVRs in less than a year.
