The story of Vikram and Betaal was known to masses, but the youth and kids of present age were still unaware of their legendary tales. We brought our version of Vikram and Betaal, with a modern twist and some breath taking visual effects for our viewers. Unfortunately the show will pull off air and the last episode will be aired on the 24th of May, 2019. The other good news is that our show Paramavatar Shri Krishna will take Vikram Betaal’s space and will air for an hour, Monday to Friday till Mid June post which it will take its original slot back.”
