MUMBAI: Continuing its legacy of presenting groundbreaking non-fiction formats that celebrate India’s diversity and emotional depth, Zee TV is set to launch Chhoriyan Chali Gaon. This refreshingly unique reality show brings together the worlds of “India” and “Bharat”. Under the channel’s refreshed brand identity, ‘Aapka Apna ZEE’, this upcoming show promises to take viewers on a heartfelt journey of transformation, cultural immersion, and human connection.
12 renowned independent, urban women will leave behind the fast-paced comforts of their city lives to spend over 60+ day living in a rural Indian village. Without gadgets, luxuries, or shortcuts, they’ll take on real village chores, navigate daily life, and embrace the simplicity and wisdom of age-old customs. The show’s storytelling is anchored in three strong pillars: Rural Survival & Adaptation, Cultural Immersion & Emotional Growth, and Competition & Social Strategy. From lighting a chulha to forming deep bonds with villagers, each episode will serve up a powerful blend of laughter, conflict, insight, and inspiration.
Adding authenticity and warmth to the format is television personality and youth icon Rannvijay Singha, who comes on board as the host. More than just a presenter, Rannvijay takes on a multifaceted role as a mentor, motivator, guide, and storyteller as well as the voice of the villagers. His grounded presence and deep-rooted connection to real India make him the ideal voice to lead both the contestants and the audience through this eye-opening experience.
Speaking about joining the show, Rannvijay shared, “The moment I heard the concept of Chhoriyan Chali Gaon, I was instantly drawn to it. As someone who has grown up with both the comforts of city life and a deep connection to the soil, this format spoke to me on a personal level. It’s not just another reality show — it’s a journey, a mindset shift. In today’s world of instant gratification, where everything from food to comfort is just a click away, this show challenges that convenience. The contestants will truly understand what it means to earn a single meal through sheer effort and hard work. Hosting it gives me the chance to witness real change, raw emotion, and untapped resilience. I’m excited to be part of something so rooted, meaningful, and entertaining at the same time. I believe audiences won’t just watch this show — they’ll feel it, and perhaps, rediscover a part of themselves in the process.”
As Chhoriyan Chali Gaon gears up to premiere soon, viewers will watch a rare blend of rural life, real emotion, and raw strength, as 12 women step out of their comfort zones, with Rannvijay by their side.
Stay tuned to Zee TV for Chhoriyan Chali Gaon – where the fast-paced city meets the soulful village, and real stories unfold!
