Zee TV's next huge historical venture, Jai Somnath will now be produced by Indra Media...
Zee TV
was planning to allot the slot of Jhansi Ki Rani to their next
historical venture, titled Jai Somnath. The story set in the 11th
century in Somnath, Gujarat will explore the relationship between Raja
Jai Singh and Mohammad Ghaznavi, who were the prominent Rajput and
Mughal rulers in that era.
The show was initially to be produced
by Contiloe Telefilms, and the shoot of the same was to commence in
Aamgaon in December 2010. Jai Somnath was to replace Contiloe's
presently running show Jhansi K Rani. However, the latest news on this
is that Contiloe is no more producing this show.
Our source
states, "The show has now been passed over to Indra Media who is
presently co-producing Sanjog Se Bani Sangini along with DJ's Creative
Unit. Indra Media will join hands with Candle Stick Media to produce
this spectacular historical show, Jai Somnath. The show will now go on
floor in February. Presently, the casting process is being worked upon".
Veteran actor of Bollywood Sadashiv Amrapurkar had earlier been
roped in by Contiloe Telefilms to play a prominent role. We hear that
certain chopping and changing of the cast is happening as of now.
A
source from Indra Media did confirm to us that Jai Somnath will be
produced by them. Vikas Kapoor of Candle Stick Media will be the
Creative Producer.
We hear that due to the delay in the launch of Jai Somnath,
Zee TV is planning to place Hats Off Productions' new show, Zindagi Gale Lagaalegi once Jhansi Ki Rani sees it climax..
We tried contacting Sukesh Motwani, Fiction Head,
Zee TV for a confirmation, but could not get thro' to him..
Let's wait to know more on Jai Somnath, Zee's next biggest venture coming in the New Year..
