Mumbai: Announced in August this year, &TV’s brand-new mythological "Baal Shiv" is all set to premiere on 23 November. The show depicting the eternal bond between the mother and son - Mahasati Anusuya and Baal Shiv - will air every Monday to Friday at 8 p.m.

Produced by Zee Studios, "Baal Shiv" features Aan Tiwari as Baal Shiv, Mouli Ganguly as Mahasati Anusuya, Siddharth Arora as Mahadev, Shivya Pathania as Devi Parvati, Krrip Kapur Suri as Asur Andhak, Praneet Bhatt as Narad Muni, Danish Akhtar Saifi as Nandi, Dakssh Ajit Singh as Indra, Anjita Poonia as Indrani, Ravi Khanvilkar as Archarya Dandpani, Rajeev Bhardwaj as Rishi Atri, and Pallavi Pradhan as Maina Devi, amongst others.

Lord Shiva had taken several avatars but never experienced childhood and mother's love. Even though his marriage to Parvati helped him in finding a balance between his detached and householder self, his hermit nature often concerned Parvati as she felt that he lacked an understanding of domiciliary duties. To fulfil this wish, Lord Shiva took the Baal Roop (child form), becoming the dutiful son of Mahasati Anusuya, said the channel in a statement.

Commenting on the show launch, &TV business head Vishnu Shankar said, “Indian mythology is a treasure trove of extraordinary tales and our fascination with them is limitless. Among these are the legends of Lord Shiva and his various avatars. However there is one ‘roop’ which is rarely spoken about and that is his ‘Baal Roop’. At &TV we are proud to present for the first time on Indian television this untold, unseen story through our show 'Baal Shiv'. We invite all our viewers and Lord Shiva’s ardent devotees to watch and enjoy it wholeheartedly.”
