Newly Launched TV Show Karmphal Data Shani On Colors Is A STAR Plus Reject!

SpotboyE.com told you yesterday how Colors' latest mythological offering-Karmphal Data Shani is meant for the ones who follow mythology closely. The show has overall not left a great impression (TV SHOW REVIEW: Karmphal Data Shani Will Only Click With Mythology Buffs, 8 Nov 2016).

And now we bring you another update on the show. Karmphal Data Shani which is currently being aired on Colors TV was originally in the lap of its rival channel-STAR Plus.

Siddharth Kumar Tewary, the producer of the show, had taken the script of the show to STAR Plus initially. However, STAR kept Tewary hanging for a long time. At first, they said they will consider it. Then they told Siddharth Kumar that they need time. Finally after keeping him on wait, one day they just called him to say that the channel will not be going ahead with the show. The reasons were-STAR Plus feared the show will not garner great TRPs.

Dejected Siddharth then knocked the doors of Colors TV only to get the good news that they will air his mythological drama. Well yes, for reasons best known to Colors TV, they agreed to come on board.

SpotboyE.com has also learnt that had STAR Plus not kept Siddharth Kumar Tewary hanging for a long time, the show would have gone on air much before as it was ready months back. The show which finally premiered on Television on Nov 7 stars Salil Ankola( Surya), Juhi Parmar (Sangya) and Kartikeya Malviya( Shani).
