Chhoti Bahu to air for an hour on Mondays

Chhoti Bahu is unarguably the driver show of Zee TV as it has changed the viewing pattern of the early evening band. The show broke all records and became one of the top rated shows on TRP charts. As a result, the channel has decided to reward the show by extending it by half an hour every Monday. The show that earlier aired at 7:30 pm for half an hour will now air till 8:30 pm every Monday. This would mark an end to Creative Eye’s long running show Maayka. The time slot will be taken over by Contiloe’s Jhansi Ki rani starting 18 August which will air from Tuesday to Friday. So does it mean extra pressure for the actors? An excited Avinash Sachdeva who plays the role of Dev in the show says, “This is not extra pressure but it’s indeed pleasing to know that the channel trusts you and believes that you have the potential to sustain the TRPS and hold the viewers for an hour. 7:30 pm has already been included in the prime time band and new shows are coming up with bright and innovative concepts which have the potential to grab the attention of the viewers. There are new twists and turns in the offing and I guarantee complete entertainment to our viewers.”
