Over its journey of two years, Life Ok’s flagship crime docu-drama ‘Savdhaan India’ has set a strong foothold in the crime genre with riveting depiction of real life incidents. The show, which launched in April 2012, went on to complete 1000 episodes on November 12.

From alerting viewers, to inspiring them and showcasing the 100 best fight-backs in its past season, the show has implemented various innovative initiatives to reach out to the viewers and encourage them to fight against crime.
At the completion of 1000 episodes, the show will undergo an overhaul and return with a new season ‘Savdhaan India– Fight Back Now’. The new season will capture the current mood of the nation where people are agitated with increasing incidents of crime around them, and cannot take it lying down anymore. The show aims to empower its viewers through gripping stories of common people of India who have faced crime and emerged victorious. ‘Fight Back Now’ is all about the determination of the victims to overcome difficult situations and defeat the criminals.

Speaking about the show’s successful run on the channel, Ajit Thakur, EVP and General Manager, Life Ok, said, “‘Savdhaan India’ has been one of our remarkable shows. It is a proud moment for us to witness ‘Savdhaan India’ reach the 1000 episodes mark in such a short time span.

It aims to motivate a common Indian to be resilient and fight against crime. Through our efforts, we hope to have transformed a few lives, and look forward to take this to the next level in our new season ‘Fight Back Now’.”
