New Delhi: Now that Naagin is set to go off air, we are all set to await an all new show that matches with the entertainment level of Naagin and there’s something that Colors channel have got for us! From June 11, a new show called Kawach.. Kaali Shaktiyon Se is all set to entertain the audiences with its hatke context. It’s a story of love, passion and obsession and the characters look well engrossed in the same. The leads are played by the cool Vivek Dahiya as Rajbir, Mona Singh as Paridhi and Mehack Chahal as Manjulika. Mona Singh. So it goes like this. The show dwells into the lives of a loving couple- Paridhi and Rajbir and his fanatical lover Manjulika’s unfulfilled soul! So, the show focuses on the elements of supernatural occurrences and exorcism.
Commenting on Rajbir's character, actor Vivek Dahiya said, “As a story of love and obsession, Kawach will take viewers on a spine-tingling ride. Rajbir doesn’t believe in supernatural powers, but is a strong believer in the power of love and uses it to fight evil spirits when his wife Paridhi is possessed by Manjulika’s soul. His misfortune and failure at protecting his wife causes him to take many decisions that shape their future and existence. But how Rajbir and Paridhi’s love fights through all odds forms the crux of this story.”
Speaking about her character, Mona Singh, who essays the role of Paridhi said, “Paridhi is a modern women who is well educated, is an archaeologist by profession and doesn’t believe in supernatural occurrences. But, she is willing to go to any length to protect her husband from the clutches of evil. She will get possessed by Manjulika's spirit, but even this will not deter her from her goals. Paridhi considers love supreme and will chart her course to her destiny with that one goal in mind."
Upon being casted in her first ever fiction role as Manjulika, Maheck Chahal said, “Manjulika is a dark and sexy seductress. She tries to win Rajbir's heart but fails. Her return from the dead is a mark of power and passion, and she will do all it takes – including inhabiting Paridhi’s untainted and loving soul – to own the man who she believes is rightfully hers."
Commenting on the launch of the show, Raj Nayak, CEO – COLORS said, “The numero uno show of Indian television is going to be replaced by a new entrant which has the potential to become another trendsetter in the industry. The success of Naagin has led us to believe that the Indian viewers have a huge appetite for stories which dangle on the realms of the unknown. Going by the efficacy of this research, we bring to the viewers, Kawach – a show that talks about love, demonic possession and exorcism. COLORS has set a benchmark of sorts in the finite fiction series space and we hope to continue the same trend now with Kawach. The show will definitely create ripples, is our belief.”
The show will go on-air starting 11th June 2016, and will air every Saturday and Sunday at 8:00 PM on COLORS.
