After having made various successful experiments, Star Network will now try out a Gujarati band on Star One to test waters for a new channel they want to launch.

As we know, a complete revamp of Star One is being worked upon. The new look channel which is expected to take shape in a couple of months will no more have the youth oriented flavour. The shows to be launched on Star One will be family dramas and saas bahu sagas, mostly of the flavour of Colors and Zee TV.

In addition to the new Hindi shows to be launched, Star One will also have 3 Gujarati dailies running, which will be an experiment of sorts.If this works out, Star network plans to start a dedicated channel for Gujarati programming like Star Pravah and Star Jalsa.

A little birdie tells us, "To begin with, there will be three Gujarati dailies on Star One. Jamnadas Majethia's Hats Off Productions and Jay Productions are likely to produce a Gujarati show each on the channel".

When contacted,Jamnadas Majethia told us, "The show is in a very initial stage. I am leaving for a vacation and would be able to talk on it once I get back".

Jay Mehta of Jay Productions though was unavailable for comment.

It is believed that all the existing shows on Star One will wrap up before the new set of programming makes its way.

Let's see what lies in store for the already depleted Star One in terms of ratings..

STAR ONE REVAMPING: A Dynamic Channel Remains Powerful when its receipients are Dynamic - and in this case, the Receiving End is the YOUTH with the evergrowing Indian & International Flavor.

There are so many channels spicing up saas-bahu sagas, and these are satiating those fans who love that...theres multi-intellectually, sensually & emotionally satisfying channels for every viewer...availabe with the click of a remote...

WHY MESS WITH STAR ONE OR REVAMP ITS TRUE DIRECTION, IT ORIGINALLY PROJECTED...

So MOST EMPHATICALLY, allow Star One to remain YOUTH CENTRIC.

Cheers. AL K-Villa

what the hell do think they are doing? Please even if they introduce three gujratis shows thats perfectly awlry, but let Pyaar Ki Yeh Ek Kahaani and Geet Huwein Sab Se Parayyi on air. They rate 3rd and 1st respectively on I-F's Chaska Meter. No PKYEK and GHSP no Star One.:X

Please Don't End GHSP ! Its The Most Awesome Show On TV ! Star One Will Loose All Its Fans If GHSP Ends. They Are Millions Of Maaneet \ Gurti Fans. Don't Break Our Hearts. I Think Star One Should Recall What Happened To LNMDJ. The TRP's Of Youth Oriented, Romantic Comedies Are Much Higher Than Family Drama's. Even Star Plus Is Loosing All Its Fans Because Of Family Drama's. Please Star One Team, Don't End GHSP !
