Mumbai: Gujarati general entertainment channel Colors Gujarati has announced a new show “Maru Mann Mohi Gayu” that premieres on 27 September at 7:30 p.m from Monday to Saturday.

Produced by Kalp Media, the show is an adaption of Colors Marathi TV series “Sundara Manamadhye Bharali." It features Dhwani Upadhyay and Harshil Desai in the lead and challenges societal definitions of beauty.

“Maru Mann Mohi Gayu beautifully captures the rigid definitions of beauty and shape through the journey of Anokhi,” said Colors Gujarati, programming head, Darshil Bhatt. “Placing the central focus on an overweight lady is unconventional enough to begin with, and Dhwani Upadhyay meets the challenge by owning every moment. The show brings together exceptionally strong characters, outstanding chemistry, and an extremely interesting storyline.”

Colors Gujarati has an eclectic mix of fiction and non-fiction shows. Their flagship fiction shows include “Rasoi show,” “Rashi Rikshawali," “Abhilasha," “Chhuta Chheda," “1760 Sasuma," and “Suri." Their non-fiction shows include “Daily Bonus," “Naach Maari Saathe," “Bola Keta Taka," and “Khadkhadaat."
