Parag Milk Foods’ Gowardhan Ghee partners with KBC 14
Mumbai: Gowardhan Ghee from the house of Parag Milk Foods has collaborated with Sony Entertainment Television’s show Kaun Banega Crorepati Season 14 to launch its new communication initiative, #GARVSEGOWARDHAN.
The campaign kicks off across multiple consumer touch-points, such as television, out-of-home, digital, and experiential activations. It is an attempt to convey the mutual feeling of pride felt by millions of customers, farmers, and the Parag Milk family.
Following this partnership, whenever a contestant on the hot seat reaches the second “Padaav” of the game, i.e., wins a minimum of Rs 3.20 lakh, they will also attain the prize of yearly supplies of Gowardhan Ghee.
Host Amitabh Bachchan will mention “Gauravshali Uphar,” which adds to the contestants’ achievements. This association is a step towards celebrating the brand’s purity while embracing its glorious years in the market.
Commenting on the collaboration, Parag Milk Foods senior vice president strategy, sales, and marketing Akshali Shah said, “Associating with Kaun Banega Crorepati is a logical extension of our brand and product category Gowardhan ghee, as traditionally ghee has been considered a brain tonic for memory enhancement. It is said to promote all three aspects of mental functioning-learning, memory, and recall—which are essential to performing well on the hot seat. We are also very thrilled with this association as the legendary Amitabh Bachchanji serves as the host. His charming personality and humility bring an unwavering fanfare to this game show. It has a successful track record of reaching a captive audience, delivering stupendous results, and garnering favourable reviews across India. The mention of “aapko milta hai Gowardhan Ghee ki taraf se Gauravshali uphar” by Amitabh Bachchan ji has enormous appeal and would aid in extending our pride in #GARVSEGOWARDHAN to the next level.”
MUMBAI: Lights, camera… connection because this time, the game isn’t just about winning, it’s about who’s with you. Sony Pictures Networks India is gearing up to launch a new reality game show, Tum Ho Naa, expanding its unscripted slate with a format that promises both emotion and engagement.
The show will premiere soon on Sony Entertainment Television and stream on Sony LIV, with Rajeev Khandelwal stepping in as host. Known for his measured screen presence and selective choices, Khandelwal’s return to television adds a layer of familiarity and credibility to the upcoming format.
While specific details of the gameplay remain under wraps, the positioning suggests a reality format that leans as much on emotional resonance as it does on competition, an increasingly popular blend in Indian television, where audiences are gravitating towards content that offers both stakes and storytelling.
Khandelwal, reflecting on his return, noted that his choices have often been guided by instinct rather than convention, describing Tum Ho Naa as a project that feels “close to the heart”. His association also signals Sony’s continued focus on anchoring new formats with recognisable faces who bring both relatability and depth.
The launch comes at a time when broadcasters are doubling down on original non-fiction formats to drive appointment viewing, even as digital platforms expand parallel reach. By placing the show across both linear television and OTT, Sony appears to be aiming for a dual-audience strategy capturing traditional viewers while engaging digital-first consumers.
As the countdown to premiere begins, Tum Ho Naa positions itself not just as another game show, but as a reminder that sometimes, the biggest prize on screen isn’t the jackpot, it’s the journey shared along the way.
