The anticipation has reached its peak as Colors channel unveils one of its most anticipated shows of the year, “Lakshmi Narayan.” Following the success of “Shiv Shakti-Tap Tyaag Tandav,” the leading General Entertainment Channel (GEC) introduces another captivating mythological drama to enrich its weekday programming.
Replacing “Pracchand Ashok” in the coveted 10 PM slot, “Lakshmi Narayan” marks a significant shift in the channel’s lineup. The decision to bring “Lakshmi Narayan” onboard came after “Pracchand Ashok,” starring Adnan Khan and Mallika Singh, faced challenges with low TRP ratings, ultimately leading to its discontinuation.
An industry insider shared exclusive insights with Filmibeat, shedding light on the dynamics behind the channel’s decision. Despite boasting a stellar cast and an extensive promotional campaign, “Pracchand Ashok” failed to resonate with the audience, reflected in its disappointing opening TRP. This decline in viewership, a common trend post-Bigg Boss seasons, posed concerns for Colors TV.
Fans eagerly awaited the unveiling of “Lakshmi Narayan” ever since the release of its first promo. Colors TV, in collaboration with Siddharth Kumar Tewary, returns with another mythological masterpiece following the success of “Shiv Shakti.” The new show delves into the divine narrative of Lord Vishnu and Goddess Lakshmi, exploring their timeless bond and significance in Hindu mythology.
Siddharth Kumar Tewary, expressing his enthusiasm for the project, emphasized the profound impact of Laxmi’s presence on Narayan’s stature, symbolizing divine grace. He highlighted the creative fulfillment in partnering with COLORS once again to celebrate the revered couple and reinforce the mythology genre in television.
The spotlight falls on the main leads of “Lakshmi Narayan”: Shivya Pathania and Srikant Dwivedi take on the pivotal roles of Goddess Lakshmi and Lord Vishnu, respectively. Joining them are Tarun Khanna as Indra and Puneet Vashisht as Narad, adding depth and intrigue to the ensemble cast.
With “Lakshmi Narayan,” Colors channel embarks on a journey to captivate audiences with its rich storytelling and immersive portrayal of Hindu mythology. As viewers brace themselves for this enthralling saga, the stage is set for yet another landmark production in the realm of Indian television.
