‘Yeh Vaada Raha’ pushes out ‘Satrangee Sasural’ out of ZEE TV primetime

ZEE TV’s new fiction ‘Yeh Vaada Raha’ has pushed ‘Satrangee Sasural’ out of the primetime slot.

Set in Mumbai, the show has a distinct flavour of Maharashtra’s rich and vibrant culture. Playing a pivotal role in the show is the talented Rinku Karmakar, who returns to television after a gap of nearly two years. She plays the character of the local don’s wife – Taayi – a loud, feisty, formidable figure who enjoys her power and manoeuvres everything as per her whims. With a sharp wit and an incisive sense of humour, she is an immensely entertaining Maharashtrian character, quite unlike any other seen on Indian television. Playing the lead protagonist Kartik, Ankush Arora makes his debut as a lead on television with this show while the noted child artiste Roshni Walia plays the role of Survi. Other prominent names include actors Pankaj Vishnu essaying the role of Survi’s father, Shrikant and Ajay Paul who will be seen as the local don Bhau.

The show is produced by Trishula Productions. Concept Creator Vivek Bahl said, ‘Ye Vaada Raha’ explores the innocent world of Kartik & Survi – They may appear to have precious little in common being born a decade apart, yet they form a bond so strong that Survi will always look out for Kartik, and he, in turn, will go all out to protect Survi from the big, bad world at all times. What lies ahead for both is a journey of hope, fears, pressures, responsibilities towards one’s families, love and above all, a promise that must be honoured at all costs! The show has renowned actors like Rinku Karmarkar and Pankaj Vishnu in pivotal roles while Ankush and Roshni playing the lead protagonists are very aptly cast for their respective roles. It’s a show set in Mumbai and the central characters are Maharashtrians, so we’ve looked into the finer aspects of getting the cultural nuances and tonality right. We look forward to a great response from the audience!�۝

‘Yeh Vaada Raha’ launches on Tuesday 22nd September in the UK. ‘Satrangee Sasural’ will move from the 22:00 slot to 13:00 (repeat at 23:00).
