Down south, Nimbus has capitalised on the success of its show Nagamma
which has entered its third year of telecast on Gemini TV. The
socio mythological, launched on a Sunday night slot, traditionally
a low viewership timeband, has been among the top three three shows
on Gemini for some time, says Nimbus MD and CEO Akash Khurana.
The success of Nagamma in Telugu prompted Nimbus to remake
the show in Kannada for Udaya TV. The show, on air for over 12 weeks
now, has also made it to the top three shows on the channel, says
Khurana. The production house now plans to remake the programme
in Tamil and Malayalam to be aired on the Tamil language Sun TV
and Malayalam language Surya TV.
Nimbus, which plans to take up the comedy genre on television seriously
in the near future, has launched My Dear Bhootam with Sa
Re Ga Ma on Sun TV in the 6.30 pm slot and managed to fetch the
highest ratings for any show in that slot on Sun. Nimbus and Sa
Re Ga Ma now plan to make a Telugu version of My Dear Bhootam
for Gemini TV shortly.
On the terrestrial front, Nimbus is also present in the DD Thiruvanthapuram
channel with its highest rated daily, Allakal, claims the
company.
