Both shows are placed strategically, one a little before the Karishma
show, and the other immediately after, presumably to keep the viewer
engaged and hooked for more. Kisse Apna Kahein replaces the
year old family saga Virasat, while Gilli Danda replaces
the Ruby Bhatia anchored Hello.
Sahara TV programming head V Basav Raj says: "Just like its
namesake local Indian game 'gilli-danda', the kids programme scheduled
to air on Thursdays at 7 pm is a good old fashion entertainment
for kids."
The storyline explores the relationship between Gulshan aka 'Gilli'
and the next-door retired neighbour Mr. Dhandha, 'Danda uncle'.
Produced under the Sushriya Arts banner, by the Tu Tu Main Main
director and Chalti ka naam antakshari anchor, the show,
claims an official release, is fictional story minus any special
effects.
Kisse apna kahein, meanwhile, is a daily that has been in
the pipeline for some time now. Starting on 18 May, the programme
is a prime time daily soap tentatively scheduled to air at 9:30
pm, just after the big ticket Karisma Kapoor show. Based on the
trial and tribulations of a Muslim family, the show promises to
offer something different than the previous ones based on Muslim
families.
