A multi-media high-impact campaign with a stellar programming line-up have been planned to create a strong viewer portfolio. The channel will focus on bringing interesting and inspiring stories to the audience from September 20.
Helmed by its culturally rooted slogan, ‘Har Pal Aviral’, Zee Ganga aims to bring alive the innate unstoppable Bhojpuri spirit. The brand is built around the consumer truth of the region that Bhojpuriyas never stop in the face of hardships and carve their path to future with courage and tenacity. Bringing Nirahua on board is a strategic step in the direction to strike the right chord with the viewers and further the message of togetherness and aspiration.
Elated upon the launch, Samrat Ghosh, Cluster Head, East, Zee Entertainment Enterprises Limited (ZEEL), said, “Zee Ganga is epithet of the rising aspiration of the Bhojpuri audiences. The brand and the content philosophy reflect the progressive Bhojpuri dreams and aspirations keeping the culture and rootedness intact. Refreshed and rebranded Zee Ganga is true reflection of these core values. We are excited to partner Nirahua as the brand ambassador of Zee Ganga and this partnership further strengthens the same brand promise. This is in line with our efforts to build a wholesome Bhojpuri family entertainer, a platform that celebrates Bhojpuriyat in the true sense along with resonating the voice of the evolving mind set within the region.”
Commenting on it, Amarpreet Singh Saini, Sr. Vice-President, Bhojpuri Cluster, said, “In a region like Bihar, Jharkhand and Poorvanchal, where people have learned to thrive irrespective of lack of resources and have limited opportunities, family values hold great significance. It hence becomes imperative that we acknowledge and bring forward these values and tales with which audience can relate to. Hence, Nirahua is an appropriate choice for the brand. He is the perfect example of everything Zee Ganga represents, i.e., hard work, family values, resilience and above all unstoppable Bhojpuri spirit. And with such an icon introducing our original content and new line-up, we are more than confident that our viewers will instantly connect to and feel rejuvenated with the change.”
