    &pictures brings the Full On Ishq film festival for Valentines week

    MUMBAI: Love is in the air, and &pictures is turning up the romance dial with its Full On Ishq Film Festival—a cinematic extravaganza celebrating love in its most dramatic, passionate, and unpredictable forms. Running from 9- 14 February, this special lineup brings viewers a daily dose of heartwarming love stories, leading up to the highly anticipated channel premiere of Kisko Tha Pata on Valentine’s day at 2 pm. Because what’s Valentine’s without a little bit of love, longing, and drama?

    Kisko Tha Pata, directed by Ratnaa Sinha, is a deep dive into the unpredictable world of romance, exploring love, passion, and obsession set against the charming backdrop of Raipur. Starring Ashnoor Kaur, Akshay Oberoi, and Aadil Khan, the film promises an emotional rollercoaster ride.

    Following the journey of Shreya (Ashnoor Kaur), a young woman navigating complex emotions, the story also introduces Devansh (Akshay Oberoi), a man whose world is shattered by heartbreak, and Dhairya (Aadil Khan), a free-spirited biker who believes in living in the moment. This tale of love and destiny is bound to leave a lasting impact on audiences.

    Sinha shares, “Kisko Tha Pata is a story that dives deep into the unpredictability of love. It’s about choices, emotions, and how destiny plays a role in shaping our relationships. Love isn’t always easy, and this film beautifully captures its raw, unfiltered essence. I’m thrilled that audiences will get to experience this poignant tale on &pictures this Valentine’s Day.”

    Kaur adds, “Shreya’s journey is one of self-discovery, heartbreak, and resilience. She’s a character that will remind many of their own experiences with love—whether it’s the euphoria of falling in love or the agony of watching it slip away. Kisko Tha Pata is a story that will stay with you long after the credits roll.”

    Oberoi, who plays Devansh, shares, “Devansh’s story is about heartbreak, healing, and finding redemption. He’s someone who loved deeply, lost painfully, and is struggling to put himself back together. Valentine’s Day is all about love, and Kisko Tha Pata shows that love isn’t always perfect, but it’s always worth it.”

    Khan, portraying Dhairya, comments, “Dhairya’s character brings refreshing energy to the film. He is someone who sees love in its most free-spirited form—without boundaries or expectations. His journey is about embracing the moment, about hope, and about finding happiness even in the face of uncertainty.”

  • COLORS presents new show ‘Suman Indori’ premiering on 3 September

    COLORS presents new show ‘Suman Indori’ premiering on 3 September

    Mumbai: Family dynamics often involve a subtle struggle for control within the household. COLORS introduces “Suman Indori,” a family drama that explores the tension between an elder sister-in-law and her younger counterpart. The show centers on the power dynamics between Devika, the elder sister-in-law, and Suman, the younger sister-in-law, who marries Teerth, a member of a prominent family. Starring Ashnoor Kaur as Suman, Zain Imam as Teerth and Anita Hassanandani as Devika, and produced by Pratik Sharma of Studio LSD, ‘Suman Indori’ premieres on the 3 September and will air daily at 6:30 pm on COLORS.

    Set in Indore, “Suman Indori” tells the story of Suman, a street food vendor whose life changes when she marries Teerth, an aspiring politician from a powerful family. As she navigates her new role as a daughter-in-law, she encounters opposition from her elder sister-in-law, Devika. The two women find themselves in a continuous power struggle. Teerth, meanwhile, views his marriage to Suman as a means to advance his political career. The show follows their interactions and the resulting shifts in household dynamics.

    Talking about boarding the show, Anita Hassanandani said, “With Suman Indori, I’m stepping into the role of Devika, a tez-tarrar Jethani of a powerful political family. Devika’s the queen bee who loves calling the shots, whether it’s deciding the dinner menu, or controlling the family business. To the world, her devrani, Suman, is just the new bahu, but to Devika, she’s a ticking time bomb with that annoying charm of winning people over without even trying. What follows is a classic devrani-jethani showdown packed with power plays and mind games. Here’s hoping that viewers will rally behind the show by showering it with love!”

    Excited to essay the role of Suman, Ashnoor Kaur said, “I’m thrilled a show like Suman Indori marks my comeback on television and it is my third collaboration with COLORS. I’ll be seen embodying Suman, a resilient young woman, the breadwinner of her family, who goes from being the ‘beti’ of her city’s chaat kingdom in Sarafa bazaar to a daughter-in-law of a powerful family after a reluctant marriage. That’s when the tashan begins, between her and her jethani, who sees her as a potential usurper of her dominion over the household. But Suman being Suman, is prepared to dish out all the hurdles Devika throws her way. What I love about my character is that in a world where everyone is chasing power, she is feisty and remains true to her values.”

    Sharing his thoughts about essaying the role of Teerth, Zain Imam said, “It’s incredible to be back with COLORS for a show as special as Suman Indori. I will be seen portraying Teerth, an opportunistic politician who’s always calculating his next play to attract goodwill. He marries Suman as a stunt that will get him brownie points in people’s view. I’ve spent countless hours observing the nuances of how politicians conduct themselves. This role allows me to showcase my acting range, and I can’t wait for audiences to see what I’ve brought to the screen.  Among all the shows out there, the beauty of Suman Indori is that it captures the corridors of power within a family.”

    Get ready to witness the drama in ‘Suman Indori’ premiering on 3 September and thereafter every day at 6:30 pm only on COLORS.
