Colors lines up Bigg Boss 8 for 9 pm; Beintehaa' to open 11 pm band
MUMBAI: One of the most awaited and just as controversial reality shows on Indian television, Bigg Boss 8 will debut on Colors on 21 September. Consequently, the channel's fiction show Beintehaa' will open up the 11 pm band as it moves to accommodate the reality show.
After much speculation, it has now been confirmed that the reality show will air daily at 9 pm. The show will occupy the slot of Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa' on weekends, as the dance reality show airs its finale on 20 September. Meanwhile, the weekdays will see a bit of restructuring to accommodate the show.
While love story Rangrasiya' will go off air on 19 September, the 9 pm love story Beintehaa' will be shifted to 11 pm Monday to Friday from 22 September, opening up a new time band for the channel.
Confirming the news, Colors CEO Raj Nayak told TelevisionPost.com, "We have got good feedback for Beintehaa', with the show displaying an upward trend and the characters being loved by the masses. Honestly, it's been only one year since the show launched and the tracks are really opening up now. So a good show should be given another lease of life, and the nature of the show is such that it is more metro-oriented. We feel that if the audiences are watching it at 9 pm, there is a loyal viewership for it and they will continue to come and watch it at 11 pm." πRead more at:
