MUMBAI: Star Jalsha, a Bengali general entertainment channel (GEC), has planned to launch a new fiction show—Koler Bou that is produced by Blues production house. The new show is slated to be aired from 27 May, every Monday to Friday in the 9.30 pm time slot.

 The show is the story of Tepi, a poor simple village girl who loves to eat gets married to Deep and enters a lavish household.

Star Jalsha and Jalsha Movies EVP and channel head Sagnik Ghosh said, “Star Jalsha has been a pioneer in introducing iconic love stories on Bengali television. Koler Bou is one such love story which is sure to make you smile. We promise you a memorable adventure as we delve into the lives of Deep and Tepi and of course the Robot Wife.”

Snehasish Chakraborty, the director, producer-cum-writer said, “Koler Bou is a very unique concept which has never been seen on Bengali television. It tells a very distinctive love story which is a combination of several genres, romance, comedy and science fiction. The show explores the story of a scientist who invents a robot to save his wife’s honour and hide her flaws in front of his family. Keeping in line with Jalsha’s endeavour of ‘Chalo Paltai’, we hope that the viewers also enjoy the changing dynamics of modern Bengali television.”
