'Chhayageet' gets a facelift

After Chitrahar, the film song based programme, DD Mumbai has now given a facelift to that other eternal favourite of the golden DD days - Chhayageet.

Chhayageet in its new avatar, is anchored by former FM radio jockey Anupama singh. 

Mumbai Doordarshan Kendra director Mukesh Sharma justifies Chhayageet's relaunch thus: "If DD wants to survive, in today's competitive programming scenario, we need to have good packaging and presentation. Consequently, we consistently need to improve the look of our popular programmes." 

In the new format, Chhayageet will have the anchor interspersing the songs with questions about famous film personalities. Screen magazine editor Bhavana Somaya is handling the research for the show.

Says Sharma: "Chitrahaar's TRPs shot up from six to 11 after its relaunch. The same can probably be expected of Chhayageet."
