I am very hopeful that the cult shows will surely bring back strong nostalgic values and take viewers back in their good old days and enhance quality family time and help them sail through this difficult phase.”

  • Zee Keralam to launch in Q3 FY19

    Zee Keralam to launch in Q3 FY19

    MUMBAI: Though the general notion has been that Hindi GECs are the most watched shows across the nation, the truth is far from that. Over time, broadcasters have realised that if they want to rule India, they must cater to the various languages.

    Some strong regional TV consumers are in the southern part of the country. When it comes to Zee Entertainment Enterprises Ltd (Zeel), it witnessed a 19.1 per cent viewership share (CY 18 YTD), while in South it stands at 31.8 per cent growth share over the last fiscal. The network has achieved dominance in metro markets including Bangalore and Hyderabad. Having four dedicated channels in the South market, the network is now set to expand its footprint by launching its fifth channel, Zee Keralam, in the general entertainment channel (GEC) space. In terms of consumption power, the market stands exceptionally with 81 per cent HH’s in NCCS ABC, which is highest in the country.

    The Kerala market contributes 3.7 per cent of national viewership, where Malayalam GECs bag 57 per cent of total viewership. The sector is jam-packed but Zeel sees scope to grow with 90 per cent TV ownership and people’s willingness to take pay channels.

    Zeel south cluster head and Zee Tamil business head Siju Prabhakaran said, “Any market you enter, there has to be a competition. But we have seen that whenever we have great content and if you give the right kind of content, the POT of those markets has actually grown. The best case was in Tamil where there was Sun TV and Vijay TV, and general assumption was that people were very happy with whatever the content is being served to them but then there comes Zee Tamil at a market share of 20.7 per cent in the year 2018-19. In the case of Zee Keralam, we will offer original content.”

    The channel, launching in Q3 of FY19, has a programming line-up of seven fiction shows, two non-fiction shows, one afternoon game show and one morning show. In addition, the channel has also conceptualised a cinema-based speed news show.

    With south contributing to the 33 per cent of viewership and overall share in the industry, the network claims to have 25 per cent of the viewership raking in from its south channels. Zeel CMO Pratyusha Agarwal said, “South contributes 33 per cent of viewership share and overall also. But on ad revenue, it is still at 23 per cent of the market share and there is a huge scope for the category to grow there. In terms of viewership, south contributes four hours of viewership and national for about two hours of viewership.”

    Prabhakaran added that in the past two years, it has been the largest contribution as a cluster along with the Hindi movie channels. “The growth has been primarily on the basis of growth, where Zee Telugu is a strong number two player with 688 GRPs and 25.7 per cent genre share in the urban GEC segment. Fiction contributes around 56 per cent (382 GRPs) to total Zee Telugu viewership of  688.” Telugu movies have been a great success for the network to break even within a year, he said.

    Some of the tentpole shows in the Telugu umbrella are Mudda Mandaram, Kalyana Vaibhogam, Maate Mantramu and Sa Re Ga Ma Pa. Talking about the upcoming attractions, fiction show – Prema and non-fiction shows like Aata Juniors, Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Li’l Champs are in the pipeline.  

    Also, its Telugu movie channel, Zee Cinemalu commenced with 122 GRPs and 22 per cent genre share in urban areas. It stood at number two in urban with 182 GRPs and 26.5 per cent genre share and number one in Hyderabad with 229 GRPs and 30.3 per cent genre share in FY19.

    When it comes to the Kannada segment, it is on an aggressive growth path since week 20 of 2018 with an increased market share from 24 per cent to 30 per cent gradually. The network claims to have grown from an average of 295 GRPs channel in FY16 to 546 GRPs in FY 19 (Wk 39) U+R which is a growth of 85 per cent, where the other players have witnessed a stagnation or decrease. Its flagship shows includes Naagini, Kamali, Comedy Khiladigalu, Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Li’l Champs (season 14) and its upcoming programs include fiction show launches – Shree Vishnu Dashavatara, Paru, Aatma Bandhana and Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Season 15, Drama Juniors Season 3 as the non-fiction shows.

    Zee Tamil has seen a 92 per cent growth in 18 months with an average of 542 GRPs at a market share of 20.7 per cent in the year 2018-19. The major reason for Zee Tamil’s growth has been its fiction and is at second position with a 26 per cent genre share.

    Agarwal said that in the Tamil market, it rated more than Bigg Boss on its finale. “Bigg Boss was a great success for Vijay TV in season 1 and season 2 was also coming and we were also gearing up and thinking what to do next. So it was obviously no point in bringing big show content at the same time. We had great traction in fiction shows and as a result, planned to extend our 3 fiction shows during the weekend.”

    Shree Vishnu Dashavataram, Sathya, Sembaruthi high-point (live wedding shoot) – fiction shows and ThamizhaThamizha, Super Mom and Dance Jodi Dance Juniors – non-fiction shows are on the cards for the Tamil viewers.

  • The latest season celebrates music as the biggest propeller for mankind; One that discards discrimination and recognizes only talent

    The latest season celebrates music as the biggest propeller for mankind; One that discards discrimination and recognizes only talent

    MUMBAI: Some shows become popular, a few others attain cult status, but very rarely does a show become an institution in itself. Zee TV’s Sa Re Ga Ma Pa is one such prestigious platform that has pioneered and revolutionized the landscape of talent-based reality, as a genre, on Indian television. Having lived the channel’s philosophy Aaj Likhenge Kal even before it was articulated, the show has given generations after generations of aspiring singers a lifetime opportunity to showcase their golden voices and build extraordinary careers in the world of music. Be it Sonu Nigam, Shreya Ghoshal, Shekhar Ravjiani, Kunal Ganjawala, Sanjivani, Ranjeet Rajwada, Kamaal Khan or Amanat Ali, each of these music luminaries attribute their first break and their glorious success to this grand mecca of singing. Season after season, the show has not only reinvented music but brought the entire nation together to celebrate pure, unadulterated singing. After the raging success of Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Li’l Champs last year, Zee TV is back with an exciting new season of its most iconic singing reality show. With the core thought of music for all – #MusicSeBaneHum, the new season will celebrate music as the one universal language that unites mankind and propels it towards growth. Sending out a strong message of all-inclusiveness and standing up against discrimination over caste, creed, colour, community, religion and sexuality, Sa Re Ga Ma Pa will focus its spotlight on talent alone. This philosophy of the show is brought alive through its catchy, clutter-breaking jingle ‘Harega Harega’ that declares discrimination to be the prerogative of losers and music as the only winning proposition that looks beyond these trappings and recognizes true talent.  Produced by Essel Vision, Sa Re Ga Ma Pa will premiere on 13th October and air every Saturday and Sunday at 9:00 PM only on Zee TV

    Zee TV Business Head Aparna Bhosle said, “With the end of our immensely popular children’s acting talent hunt- India’s Best Dramebaaz, we now present viewers with the latest season of Sa Re Ga Ma Pa, a platform people look up to for setting the golden standards of excellence in singing. The show has earned its stature and credibility through consistency in providing the country a pool of only the most exceptional singers. In its newest season, Sa Re Ga Ma Pa focuses on rising above discrimination and uniting everyone with music as a universal language through its core proposition #MusicSeBaneHum. While letting go of discriminating barriers, we have let gone of the age criterion this season. The unanimous selection of gay icon Sushant Divgikar as one of the contestants by our judges, based purely on merit of his vocal abilities beautifully embodies the all-inclusive spirit of the season. We have a hard-hitting marketing campaign that goes one step further and announces the formation of the first-of-its-kind all-India parody political party called the ‘Rashtriya Sangeet Party’,  the manifesto of which is to discard labels that discriminate and bring people together to celebrate their talent and love for music.  The show’s judges have extended their support by flagging off the campaign, putting out powerful tweets representing the party’s core ethos.”

    Guiding and grooming the young talents in their journey to become India’s musical doyens will be three supremely talented mentors who have been instrumental in taking Bollywood music to unforeseen heights. The multi-talented singer Sona Mohapatra will be making her judging debut with this season alongside Sa Re Ga Ma Pa veterans – the widely popular singer-composer Wajid Khan and the charismatic singer-composer-actor Shekhar Ravjiani. Along with the mentors, an esteemed panel of 15 music connoisseurs- experts from the music fraternity, will play the role of jury and assess the aspiring singers right from the audition stage and help mentors in selecting only the best. Returning as the host for this season will be young and dynamic singing heart-throb Aditya Narayan who never fails to charm the audiences with his wit and easygoing camaraderie with the mentors.

    Mentor Sona Mohapatra said, “Sa Re Ga Ma Pa is special for me as I am making my foray into TV as a judge and extremely proud to be associated with the most prestigious and definitive singing platform on Indian television. What’s more, I’m proud to be the first woman to be a part of the panel of judges in all these years. And, I am even more happy to be part of a season that transcends cultural and social differences and presents music as a universal language that unites all. I am also joining hands with my fellow judges as a representative of ‘Rashtriya Sangeet Party’, a nationwide movement that demands acceptance of only music, setting aside any judgments or discriminations. The soul of the show will be bringing together people of different castes, creed, sexuality or gender and binding them with the power of music. On the judging panel, I will be looking for a combination of passion, authenticity and well-honed craft amongst the participants of the show.”

    Mentor Wajid Khan said, “I have been associated with Sa Re Ga Ma Pa for three seasons and I am looking forward to being of part of this season as well. The show has been instrumental in giving a platform to singers across the country to come forth and display their talents and I am excited to listen to the emerging voices of today’s generation. With music evolving year on year, the contestants must take an extra step in presenting themselves and sharpening their skills to the fullest. Moreover, this season of Sa Re Ga Ma Pa focuses on music’s ability to rise above discrimination and bring about universal harmony. With this season we tend to raise the bar a notch higher and I hope for another successful season of the show.”

    Mentor Shekhar Ravjiani said, “Sa Re Ga Ma Pa is very close to my heart and I have wonderful memories attached to the show. I look forward to creating new ones, listening to and mentoring the musical future of India.  Each one of the past seasons that I have judged has always been trailblazers, especially the 2007 season when the show went on to make history. I look forward to being part of this next chapter of Sa Re Ga Ma Pa as it continues to ignite a passion for music in India through another pathbreaking season in 2018 and bring forth talents as we have never seen before.” 

    With the auditions being conducted in cities like Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata, Guwahati, Ranchi, Itanagar,  Patna, Jaipur, Amritsar, Chandigarh, Lucknow, Bangalore, Indore, Ahmedabad, the show has left no stone unturned in scouting the best of singing talent. The shortlisted contestants will get the golden opportunity to perform in front of the mentor's panel and live out their passion for music in front of the entire nation.

  • Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Unveils the Rashtriya Sangeet Party

    Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Unveils the Rashtriya Sangeet Party

    Monday, 4th October 2018- Some shows become popular, some attain cult status, but only a few become an institution. Zee TV’s pioneer show Sa Re Ga Ma Pa is one such prestigious platform that has given nation’s aspiring singers an opportunity to showcase their golden voices and build an extraordinary career in the world of music. Season after season, the show has not only reinvented music but also brought the entire nation together to celebrate music in its purest form. In fine sync with the channel’s philosophy Aaj Likhenge Kal, the new season of Sa Re Ga Ma Pa will stand up for music being the greatest leveller, an all-embracing medium that values only talent and does not discriminate basis a person’s identity. In fact, Zee TV’s hard-hitting marketing campaign goes one step further and announces the formation of the first-of-its-kind all-India parody political party called the ‘Rashtriya Sangeet Party’, that demands the discarding of labels based on caste, creed, background, gender, sexuality and brings people together to celebrate their talent and love for music. With the core thought of music for all #MusicSeBaneHum, the new season of Sa Re Ga Ma Pa focuses its spotlight on talent alone, sending out a strong message of all-inclusiveness. The show’s judges Sona Mahapatra and Wajid Khan have extended their support by flagging off the campaign, putting out powerful tweets representing the party’s manifesto.

    Since its inception on 28th October 2018, the Rashtriya Sangeet Party’s microsite and subsequent social media platforms (twitter, facebook and Instagram) have been creating awareness about its propaganda through strong and impactful creatives bringing alive the power of music. The naara #HaregaBhaiHarega has been used to create a war cry against discrimination. Apart from urging celebrities connected to the music world to join this movement, the campaign has also been targeting and tapping into current issues and linking it to music, populating the #HareBhaiHarega. It has generated thousands of conversations on various social media platforms and trended for almost 3 hours a day after its inception.

    Aparna Bhosle, Business Head, Zee TV, said, “At Zee TV, it has always been about devising an inventive approach to establish the core premise of our content propositions in an engaging manner. In the recent past, through high-impact ideas like #ChangeHerNot for Kaleerein and ‘Talaq Talaq Talaq, Galat Galat Galat’ for Ishq Subhan Allah, we set new benchmarks in creative viewer engagement. While we are growing on multiple fronts to become a progressive nation, identity politics continues to take center stage and is palpable not just in India but worldwide. Knowingly or unknowingly, people choose to identify themselves with a certain colour, race, caste, creed, community, region, religion or on the basis of their sexuality. With music being a strong unifier, we thought of addressing the cultural tension and discrimination head-on by launching a campaign ‘Music Se Bane Hum’ that celebrates the all-inclusive power of music, supported by the creation of Rashtriya Sangeet Party where people only identify with ‘Music’ without any labels. The campaign not only breaks clutter but also reinforces the perception of Sa Re Ga Ma Pa as a dynamic brand that moves with the times and Zee TV as an industry pioneer.”

    The campaign ‘Music Se Bane Hum’ is spread across different mediums and will reach out to the viewers through several initiatives propagating Rashtriya Sangeet Party’s agenda. The logo of the party- a symbol of the harmonium, stands for what is right and what is right is only music. A strong social media outreach has been planned to drive conversations on twitter, facebook and Instagram through proactive and reactive posts and gifs that present music as a solution to topical problems society faces. The campaign will also have musical rallies and morchas making it a larger-than-life and differentiated marketing phenomenon.
