MUMBAI: NDTV's upcoming Hindi general entertainment channel will hit the television screens on Monday 21 January from 7 pm onwards with a reality show Nachle Ve with Saroj Khan.

NDTV Imagine has a line up of shows across genres ranging from light-hearted family soaps to period dramas and from music-based shows to the glamorous events of the industry.

For the new Hindi GEC on the block, its prime time weekday shows will run Monday through to Friday. NDTV Imagine will start its prime time at 7 pm with SOL's Nachle Ve… which according to NDTV Imagine programming head Shailja Kejriwal is a dance school coming to audiences.

"7 pm is the time when women and children can watch and learn dance at home in a simplified manner from Saroj Khan. It's like a dancing school coming to home," avers Kejriwal.

The half hour slot from 8 pm has been given to Sagar Art's Dharam Veer, followed by the celebrity reality show Say Shava Shava at 8:30 pm. Say Shava…, has two USPs to its credit - a continuous 11-day run and celeb judges Karan Johar and Simi Garewal together for the first time on the small screen.

Once it gets over, the shows like Radha Ki Betiyan Kuch Kar Dikhayengi (Monday), Ek Packet Umeed (Tuesday) Raajkumar Aaryyan (Wednesday) Dhoom Macha De (Friday and Saturday) will follow the same one hour time slot.

Imagine has given the 9:30 pm slot to the Sagar Arts' mythological Ramayan. The mytho that had television audiences spellbound 20 years ago is back, reconditioned and refurbished.

In weekdays at 10 pm Jassuben Jayantilal Joshi Ki Joint Family (Hats Off Productions) will be followed by Rajshri films' Main Teri Parchhain Hoon - a fiction based drama.

As reported already reported by Indiantelevision.com, weekends have been kept for films and event-based content. Additionally, the afternoon band has not been announced yet.

"We are concentrating on launching our channel. Once it establishes, we will introduce the afternoon band," says Kejriwal.
