    Elephant family and me

    Wildlife cameraman Gordon Buchanan travels to the spectacular Tsavo wilderness in Kenya to try to get closer than ever before to a wild elephant family. African elephants are one of the most dangerous animals in the world, killing more people than lions or any other predator.

In this series, Gordon follows the struggles of first-time mother Wendi and her spoilt new baby, Wiva. He walks with some of the largest tusked elephants on Earth and sees what it takes for an elephant family to survive in today’s Africa.

Grauer’s gorillas are beautiful yet little known giants living in the foothills of the Virunga volcanoes.

When Gordon and the baby gorillas of the troop get caught up in an epic battle between Chimunka and his huge brooding rival Mugaruka, the lives of the family hang in the balance.

    Colors Infinity launches limited-edition ‘Shark Fin Sippers’ to create buzz around Shark Tank 10

    MUMBAI: Colors Infinity came out with an out-of-the-box experimental marketing campaign for the premier of the 10th season of its famous show ‘Shark Tank’ in India. The campaign did not talk about the show but used an interesting made up energy drink and sipper, ‘Shark Fin Sipper’, to create buzz around the show.

    Known for its absurd promotional campaigns, energy drinks cater to a saturated market and it would have been really difficult for the brand to disrupt this market. Therefore, it worked with an agenda to cause disruption in the viewers’ minds and intrigue the audience.

    Colors Infinity introduced Shark Fin Sipper as a revolutionary new sipper/energy drink that doesn’t give you wings but works as a magical potion that gives you mind-blowing business-worthy ideas to resolve any problem. Starting with the most common street problem, witnessed by every citizen, Paan (beetle leaf)–spitting on walls, it launched a video campaign on social media promising an unconventional solution to the problem in form of a special wall paint that bounces the spit back at the perpetrator.

    The product was introduced as a limited-edition property, and the video garnered an overwhelming response from the viewers who could then share the weirdest problems to win the merchandise. A lucky few also received a thunderbolt, when they opened the package and found a message-in-a-sipper – “Ideas don’t come out of a faucet, but for more inspirations and crazy ideas tune in to SHARK TANK.”

    Garnering an exceptional number of entries, the sippers went out of stock within a few days of the portal going live. The campaign also managed to attract a lot of attention on social media in terms of mentions, interactions, and shares.

So, we’re not bragging when we announce that you can ONLY watch the latest episodes of your favourite legal-drama SUITS exclusively on COLORS INFINITY and no place else. Airing at the same time as the US, COLORS INFINITY presents Instant Premiere of the much-awaited finale season of SUITS every Thursday at 12pm.

    It’s time to suit up one last time, as we bid adieu to our favourite team of super-lawyers – Harvey Specter (Gabriel Macht), Donna Paulsen (Sarah Rafferty), Louis Litt (Rick Hoffman), Samantha Wheeler (Katherine Heigl), Alex Williams (Dulé Hill), Katrina Bennett (Amanda Schull) and Patrick J Adams playing Mike Ross (yes, he’s back) as the show culminates in an epic climax.

    Opining on the latest Instant Premiere, Hashim D’Souza – Head of Programming, English Entertainment, Viacom18, said, “Standing atop in the list of legal-dramas, SUITS is a bona fide sensation that’s created a fanbase across the world as well as in India, with a gripping story and unimpeachable performances by an ensemble cast. Through Instant Premieres, COLORS INFINITY remains as the only platform that brings to viewers in India the drama and excitement of this iconic show at the same time as viewers across the world. Making the finale season its biggest and best yet with Mike’s return, Harvey & Donna’s inevitable romance and a new indomitable threat to the firm, Suits will undoubtedly keep viewers at the edge of their seats.”

    Season 9 marks the end of the road for the show, and here’s a few reasons why you just cannot miss the extraordinary finale season;

    Exhibiting paternal instincts in his very own quirky form, Louis has countless times expressed his wish to father nurture and raise a child, looks like his wishes will finally come true as Sheila is expecting a child. Name on the firm’s wall, Managing Partner & now soon to be dad; seems like everything is going perfectly well for Louis, or is it?

    · Is it’s still ‘Zane Specter Litt Wheeler Williams’ now?

    With Robert taking the fall for Harvey and Donna in the finale of season 8, forcing him into an early retirement and unsettling the volatile Samantha, it is now up to the new subsumed name partners to take up the mantle.

    · There’s a mysterious new boss

    When all seemed well in the firm finally, a new threat looms over the future of Specter Litt Wheeler Williams. A mystery lady has gained control over the firm, created rifts amongst partners, installed watchdogs and asked for Harvey’s resignation.

    There’s all this and much more, as SUITS shows how to really do a finale!
