There have been talk-shows scheduled for the new venture, with programs such as ‘Zindagi Shaadi Se Pehle Shaadi Ke Baad’, which will be hosted by popular TV actor Manini De. These shows will last for one half hour. The channel will feature shows which are only related to marriage and will also try to play matchmaker.
Yash, one of the stars who will appear on a show said, “We relived our courtship period and the frenzy leading to the marriage. The channel had also got some candid pictures of ours through our friends”. ‘Shagun’ will also feature shows like ‘Kundali’ and ‘Baat Pakki Hai’, which will be hosted by Richa Soni.
