TV SHOW 'KHICHDI' TO START MID APRIL

The comedy serial Khichdi is all set to return to the Tv screens next month. The show will air from April 14, every Saturday and Sunday for an hour. The producers are willing to launch the shows during the IPL session as JD Majethia feels that cricket entertainment will actually benefit his show.

Producer JD Majethia says;  “I believe that IPL will bring in a new audience for my show. Cricket and comedy can co-exist. Whenever there is a break in the match or it gets boring, people like to tune in to comedy shows. I know usually there is a drop of 10-15 per cent during IPL, but since we are on the same network that will telecast the matches, it will work for us."

Majethia also talks about the crazy family comprising Supriya Pathak, Rajeev Mehta, Vandana Pathak and Anang Desai and says they will be funnier this time. “The Parekhs have shifted into a new house and they are in trouble. That is the premise of the show and it will have some known names from the television world like Renuka Shahane and Deepshikha Nagpal making walk-in appearances in every episode.”

“Khichdi has a great brand recall value. While Sarabhai Vs Sarabhai had more loyal viewers, Khichdi was watched by a large number of audience. Even a film was made based on it and people loved it. Whenever the film is aired on TV, it does well. So, these are all the advantages we have and I think it will work well for us,” he signs off.
