This is the first time a fiction show is being aired on two channels.

After Satyamev Jayate and Zee TV's Ramayan, it is time for Saraswatichandra to follow suit. Sanjay Leela Bhansali's debut TV show is being aired in Star Plus and Doordashan simultaneously.


"This makes it the first ever fiction show on Indian television which is being telecast on two channels. It is a very big thing," said the shows lead Gautam Rode.


The director of the show, Arvind Babbal is very happy. "This way the show will reach more viewers, as Doordarshan has a lot of loyal viewers. What makes me more happy and proud is that I started my career with Doordarshan and worked with the channel from 1989 to 98, before I shifted to Mumbai. So it is like homecoming for me," he said, adding that his mother-in-law — who has no cable connection — was happy to see the show on Doordarshan.


"She is not fond of television as such. O it made me all the more happy when she called to say that she saw it and liked it. The story of the serial is such that it should reach the masses," he said.

 

While the show will be aired at Star Plus at 7.30 pm and 11 pm, it will be shown on Doordarshan at 9.30 pm.
