Kool comedy debuts on Zee today
After Hum Paanch, comes another comedy from the Balaji stable on Zee.
Ganga and Jamuna with the younger generation of the Champanaria family
Kitne Kool Hain Hum, if the hoardings all over Mumbai are to be believed, is a comedy in the glorious tradition of Hum Paanch. Positioned in the 8 pm slot, the storyline of KKHH revolves around a family that inherits a lot of money and moves from the interiors of Gujarat to the manic madness that’s Mumbai.
