The content offering will further see a ramp up across genres including fiction and non fiction. The channel plans to launch an array of new programmes which includes two weekend non-fiction shows and a new fiction show which will be unveiled in the next few weeks.

A new team of experts has been roped in to ensure the production values and making of the shows are of impeccable standards.

Star Suvarna business head Ashok Namboodiri said, “Suvarna has always offered differentiated and innovative content to the Kannada viewers. With the new brand name and proposition, we plan to significantly scale up our offerings which will be on par with international standards. As we enter this new phase, we will continue to delight our consumers with new stories and new programs that will redefine general entertainment.”
