Sony Entertainment Television is launching two new fiction shows - Mose Chhal Kiye Jaaye and Jagannath Aur Purvi Ki Dosti Anokhi starting February 7, every Monday to Friday at 9 pm and 9.30 pm, respectively. Both the shows will trace the journeys of everyday individuals, as they forge relationships, and go through the twists and turns of human emotions.
Set against the backdrop of Mumbai, Mose Chhal Kiye Jaaye produced by Shashi Mittal & Sumeet Mittal, will chart the journey of a couple - Soumya Verma portrayed by Vidhi Pandya and her husband Armaan Oberoi portrayed by Vijayendra Kumeria. Soumya is an ambitious & struggling TV writer and Armaan Oberoi, a charming and successful TV producer. On the surface, their relationship seems perfect. For Soumya, her marriage with Armaan feels that of equals, with her husband supporting her ambitions but he has a deceitful side to him that no one knows of. Will Soumya realise she’s being manipulated by Armaan?
Jagannath Aur Purvi Ki Dosti Anokhi produced by Katha Kottage, on the other hand, portrays unique and innocent friendship cemented between two individuals - a millennial and an elderly gentleman. As they juggle through different worldviews and experiences to forge a sweet and iron-clad camaraderie, the show traces the nuanced facades of human experience. One through the vivacious, impulsive, and carefree Purvi essayed by debutante Ismeet Kohli - a millennial adamant on living on her terms; and the elderly, experienced Jaganath Mishra played by veteran actor Rajendra Gupta, who has seen the umpteen rolls of dice played out by life. The show will also see talented actor Sushmita Mukherjee essay the character of Kusum, Jaganath’s wife. Set against the backdrop of the charming ghats of Banaras, the show takes the viewers on a beautiful yet endearing journey of Jaganath Mishra finding his lost sense of life’s purpose through a young stranger-turned-friend Purvi.
Ashish Golwalkar, Head – Content, Sony Entertainment Television & Digital Business, said, “Sony Entertainment Television has been a trendsetter when it comes to defining television content. We have been consistent in introducing relatable characters and have touched upon a range of narratives that have found a place in the hearts of the audience. Both Mose Chhal Kiye Jaaye and Jagannath Aur Purvi Ki Dosti Anokhi are unique concepts in their own way that bring out a progressive perspective through the characters. With Mose Chhal Kiye Jaaye, we have tried to show a narcissistic and manipulative side of an individual that drives his behaviour and how his wife, an aspiring writer stands up for herself and her individuality. Jagannath Aur Purvi Ki Dosti Anokhi, on the other hand, is a refreshing story of an unusual yet beautiful bond of friendship between two individuals from different generations that you don’t see often. We hope viewers resonate with both the shows and find them relatable.”
Shashi & Sumeet Mittal, Producers, Mose Chhal Kiye Jaaye, said, “We are very excited to present a show like Mose Chhal Kiye Jaaye. However unfortunate, the turmoil of marital relationships is a reality. While Soumya aspires to pursue her ambition of becoming a successful TV writer and with the support of her husband Armaan Oberoi further wishes to fulfill her dream, it will be interesting to see how the dynamics change for her completely post marriage with Armaan. There is a deceitful side to him that no one knows of. It will be a revelation for the viewers to witness how Armaan manipulates his relationships as the show progresses. We are delighted to have on board actors Vidhi Pandya and Vijayendra Kumeria and hope the show strikes a chord with the viewers.”
Rajita Sharma and Vivek Budakoti, Katha Kottage Production LLP, Producers, Jagannath Aur Purvi Ki Dosti Anokhi, said, “In a world that is constantly fighting pain and sadness, stories like Jagannath Aur Purvi Ki Dosti Anokhi will bring about a smile on the face of our viewers. We talk about different kinds of friendships, but they mostly center around people in the same age group. How often do we come across such an endearing bond between a young girl and an elderly man? Well, Jagannath aur Purvi Ki Dosti Anokhi brings to light a unique friendship between an old couple and a young girl Purvi; and how they learn different things about life from each other. The story is vivacious, unique, and leaves us relishing the sweet and tangy flavours of relationships. And there was no better platform than Sony Entertainment Television, that has always supported us in bringing alive impactful human centric stories. Rajendra ji and Sushmita ji are evergreen actors who reinvent themselves with their roles; it’s just amazing to see them on-screen. Ismeet on the other hand shines through her debut with a maturity not seen often. It has been an absolute pleasure bringing these characters alive.”
