Star Pravah dedicates one-hour slot to mythology programming

18 October 2013

?Marathi GEC Star Pravah has announced the launch of ‘Mahaparv’, a special programming initiative in the mythology genre. Star Pravah is the first Marathi GEC to foray into the mythology genre. The channel has already established its supremacy across genres like comedy, family drama, crime shows, and political thrillers.

Star Pravah, starting October 21, will telecast two highly successful shows from the Star Network – ‘Devon Ke Dev…Mahadev’ and the currently on-air ‘Mahabharat’ – from Monday to Friday at 6 PM and 6.30 PM, respectively, dubbed in Marathi.

Jayesh Patil, Programming Head, Star Pravah, said, “Star Pravah has always tried to present a variety of entertainment to its viewers and mythology, as a genre, was missing across all Marathi GECs. Mahadev and Mahabharat are two extremely successful shows and therefore we decided to enter the genre with their dubbed versions.”

High hopes for ‘Satyamev Jayate 2’

With a tagline that reads: ‘Jinhe Desh Ki Fikar Hai’, season two promises hard-hitting content like before but the format will be different.

Star Plus' rejigged programming pays off

Gaurav Bannerjee, Head, Star Plus explains, “While it is true that the increase in ratings is a result of extendng the weekday strategy to Saturday, I also believe it is because of the stickiness of our content. Our weekday prime time has 11 shows out of which almost 5 to 6 are in the top ten every week. So our content, which we have worked very hard to suit the contemporary Indian woman across geographies, has found a hook with our audience."

The tussle over live cricket scores

Ajit Mohan, Head, New Media, Star India said, “Digital should be an incremental leap in the way people consume sports. But if you look at the current crop of digital sports service companies, it has been a huge regressive step backwards, because essentially you’re trying to describe a match through text commentary."
