Sony SAB to launch new show ‘Super Sisters’
MUMBAI: Sony SAB is all set to launch a new show named Super Sisters. The show will premiere on 6 August and will air every Monday to Friday at 7:30 pm. The show tells an extraordinary story of the undying love between two sisters and their secret enchanted life.
Talking about the show Sony SAB, PAL, Hindi movies and music business Head Neeraj Vyas said, “We strive to provide our viewers with fresh, innovative content across genres and formats. Strengthening our core brand belief of Haste Raho India, with Super Sisters, Sony SAB is venturing into the realm of super powers and the enchanted. This show will appeal to all age groups with its heart-rending nuance of sibling relationships, forbidden love and ironically, also the urge to be good and do well.”
Super Sisters highlights a very resilient relationship between two sisters, Shivani and Siddhi. Shivani, played by Vaishali Takkar, is a kind hearted, innocent yet brave girl. Being the elder sister, she is the more responsible one and protective of her younger sister, Siddhi, played by Muskaan Bamne. Siddhi, on the other hand, is feisty and tom boy like in her mannerisms. Having lost their parents early in life, both sisters stand by and support each other in everything they do. Love walks into Shivani’s life in the form of Ashmit Oberoi, portrayed by Gaurav Wadhwa, a young business tycoon. While both fall in love with each other, Shivani runs away from any opportunity of them being together due to a secret that she has guarded, which restricts her from falling in love.
Optimystix Entertainment Media Ltd founding chairman & MD Vipul D Shah said, “Once in a while, there comes a show that allows us, as creators, to put on our creative hats and present a no-holds-barred spectacle that will entertain viewers like never before. Super Sisters is one such show. We are glad to be its creators, partnering with Sony SAB on yet another exciting project.”
