ZEE’s ‘Betiyaan’ row over; STAR renames show

The row that sparked earlier this month over the title of ZEE TV’s new social drama ‘Ghar Ki Lakshmi…Betiyaan’ has been resolved.

ZEE had sent a legal notice to rival STAR Entertainment on 7th September 2006, challenging the latter on the ground that it was also producing a show titled ��Ghar Ki Lakshmi��_ Betiyaan�۪.

STAR had countered saying that the writer of the show, Rekha Modi, who is developing the show for STAR, had registered the show a few months before ZEE Telefilms had.

STAR One’s show has now been renamed to ��Betiyaan Apni Yaa��_ Paraya Dhan�۪. It begins in October.

ZEE�۪s show ��Ghar Ki Lakshmi��_ Betiyaan�۪, will debut on Monday 25th September (India), Monday 16th October (UK).
