So much hard work goes into promoting our shows, particularly when we are competing against much larger companies that have more resources and brand visibility in the market. Our approach is always driven by our slogan "Zara Hatke"...a little offbeat and out of the ordinary. This motto drives our brand, our programming, our marketing and our execution. We look forward to more rewards and accolades, but mostly to bringing more great content to a new generation of Young Indians that they will both enjoy and participate with".
