MUMBAI: Zee TV driver show Saath Phere producer Sphere Origins has now teamed up with Star One for a prime time soap. The serial Saathi Re will launch in October.
"We are planning to launch Saathi Re in October. The plan is to let Nach Baliye 2 (launching on 25 September) get settled and then follow the big launch with this soap. Saathi Re will be a daily soap," states Star India senior creative director Shailja Kejriwal.
Saathi Re is the story of Suman, an ideal Indian girl, who is torn between her family and love life. The soap stars Arjun Punjj, newcomer Parakh Madan, Neena Gupta, Kiran Karmarkar and Amir Dalvi doing the key roles.
"Just because the heroine has someone else also, other than her husband, in her life, it doesn't mean that Saathi Re is a tale of adultery. The subject has been handled in such a way that, it will appeal to the whole family," says Kejriwal.
