Shemaroo celebrates the comic Hungama of Paresh Rawal
MUMBAI: Continuing its efforts to offer value for money packs to its consumers, home video firm Shemaroo has launched its latest VCD pack containing three hits of Paresh Rawal- Hera Pheri, Awara Paagal Deewana and Hulchul.
The company says that at a time when the sequel to Hera Pheri is topping the box office collection charts, this pack will definitely become popular among Paresh Rawal fans.
The company says that the pack costs Rs 349 against the regular price of Rs 447.
Shemaroo has also released two other comedy packs in the past namely Non Stop Comedy Vol. 1 and 2. The first volume contains Golmaal, Chupke Chupke and Chasme Budoor and the second volume contains Masti, Style and Awara Paagal Deewana. Shemaroo plans to release many such value for money packs in future also.
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.
