Sarvopari Swaminarayan, which launched on COLORS will now be seen on NDTV Imagine from October 4th...
Sarvopari Swaminarayan, the weekly Sagar Pictures production on the life of the above well known spiritual figure which till now was being telecasted on Sunday mornings on COLORS will shift to NDTV Imagine from the 4th of October.
Vinay Rohira better known as Ranbir of Ranbir Rano who plays the lead role confirmed the news saying, "Yes we will shift channel from the 4th October. Earlier when we aired on COLORS, there was a problem with the time slot. But now we have been given a confirmed time slot of 9AM.
Moti Sagar of Sagar Pictures too confirmed this development. "Yes we have shifted channel and we will air fresh episodes on NDTV Imagine from the first Sunday of next month. It was a business decision. COLORS and we mutually agreed to part ways".
Readers will remember that Swaminarayan and Kahaaniyan Vikram Betaal Ki of Sagar Arts, heralded the entry of the COLORS weekend morning band from 17th May.
Vinay said, "The decision of switching came as welcome news, for at first we had heard that the show was not doing well and hence might be taken off."
Meenakshi Sagar of Sagar Pictures however tells us that, "The contract with COLORS ended, and we wanted to go ahead with the story of Swaminarayan as the best phase is yet to come. Hence we decided to switch channels. All the actors will remain the same, we will just be moving ahead with the second part of the story".
Besides Vinay, this show does not have any other well known face and is a compilation of weekly episodic stories on the life of the Swami Narayan
We sent a text message to Shailja Kejriwal and to the COLORS officials, but did not get any response till filing of this story.
