Colors, Life OK to clash over ‘Chandrakanta’
Doordarshan’s hit show ‘Chandrakanta’, which aired between 1994 and 1996, is making a comeback on television. It will be a double treat for the viewers, as two major Hindi GECs, Viacom18’s Colors and Star India’s Life Ok, are set to bring different versions of this popular show on their respective channels.
The original ‘Chandrakanta’ was an adaptation of the popular novel of the same title. The version that will be aired on Colors is being produced by Balaji Teleflims and the one on Life OK is being produced by Nikhil Sinha.
While Colors has retained the original title ‘Chandrakanta’ for its show, Life Ok has renamed the show as ‘Prem Ya Paheli Chandrakanta’. Both the channels have released first teasers of the shows. Colors’ 10-second promo features random arrows being shot at a target. The channel has not revealed much about the show as it is in the development stage.
On the other hand, Life OK’s first look promo is 15 seconds long and features a woman, possibly princess Chandrakanta, overlooking her burning kingdom. The channel has not revealed the identity of the woman, showing only the back of the actress.
According to a source close to the channel, the show is being developed and the final cast is yet to be decided. The plan is to launch the show by the end of February 2017 or early March 2017. Sinha, the producer of the show, had earlier produced hit series ‘Siya Ke Ram’ for the channel.
