Mumbai: Shemaroo Umang has launched its latest venture in collaboration with producer Gul Khan. This dynamic partnership introduces the supernatural saga, Shamshaan Champa, a show that promises an epic journey of wonder and unexpected twists. The show debuted on 20 August 2024 and will air every Monday to Saturday at 9:00 PM exclusively on Shemaroo Umang. The show features actress Monalisa as Mohini, and the talented actors Trupti Mishra and Aayush Srivastava as Champa and Vikram respectively. The ensemble also includes actors such as Mohammad Nazim, Tia Gandwani, Indrajeet Modi, and Yash Bhatia in pivotal roles in this narrative.
Gul Khan, celebrated for her work in the desi fantasy and supernatural genres, lends her visionary expertise to Shamshaan Champa. Created under the banner of Four Lions Films, the series chronicles the life of Champa, a kind-hearted small-town girl whose life takes a mysterious turn when a twist of fate leads her to revive as a powerful daayan. What unfolds is a narrative in which, against all odds, she chooses to use her newfound powers for good. With its blend of fantasy, romance, and compelling storytelling, the show is set to enchant the audiences.
Shemaroo Entertainment COO- Broadcasting Business Sandeep Gupta shared, “We are excited to partner with Gul Khan for the launch of Shamshaan Champa. The supernatural genre has always captivated audiences, and Gul Khan, renowned as a trailblazer in this space, brings her creativity to this project. With its fresh take on the genre, this show will be a significant addition to Shemaroo Umang’s diverse programming lineup. Our goal is to present content with mass appeal, and we believe viewers will connect with the show.”
Producer Gul Khan said, “I am excited to return to the supernatural genre with ‘Shamshaan Champa.’ The show offers a new take on the concept of a daayan—a term traditionally viewed negatively. Champa, a sweet and helpful girl, due to the twists of fate is revived as a daayan. We have put great thought into the casting to bring this vision to life. Monalisa returns in a bold new role, offering a powerful portrayal of her character, while Trupti Mishra perfectly embodies the innocence required for Champa. Aayush Srivastav brings a dynamic, modern edge to Vikram, contrasting effectively with the traditional elements of the story. I am confident that the audience will be captivated by both the engaging narrative and the exceptional cast.”
