Star Plus & Balaji’s new fiction show set in Jamshedpur to launch on 28 September
MUMBAI: Balaji Telefilms and Star Plus are all set to launch a new fiction show set in the steel city of Jamshedpur. The show called Kuch Toh Hai Tere Mere Darmiyaan will go on air from 28 September and will be telecast from Monday – Saturday at 8.30 pm.
The love story builds on the fact that if it’s not mad, extra ordinary and passionate love, then it’s not love at all. Kuch Toh Hai Tere Mere Darmiyaan is the coming of an age story of three friends – Koyal, Raj and Madhavan, each different from the other yet connected by the bond of friendship.
The show is set in Jamshedpur, exploring the colour and life style of a small town, where almost everyone works in the same steel industry and lives a simple, routine life. Jamshedpur and the steel factory culture will bring a unique colour to the show, as it explores the story of three families, one Bengali, one Punjabi and one South Indian, all related to each other through their place of work and profession.
Kuch Toh Hai Tere Mere Darmiyaan stars Shritama Mukherjee as the protagonist playing the role of Koyal. She will be paired opposite two lead actors, Vibhav Roy and Gautam Gupta playing the role of Raj and Madhvan respectively.
