Production

[edit]

The series premiered and aired on StarPlus in prime time slot until January 2007. On 22 January 2007, it was shifted to Star One due to the programming changes of StarPlus for its flagship show Kaun Banega Crorepati's premiere and also as the series did not garner expected ratings in Star Plus.[5][6]

The series was made with a high budget of ₹ 20 crores.[7]
