Suryavamsam is a contemporary family drama, which has a refreshing take on the conflict between a tradition and love between different cultures. It brings back nostalgia for the days when joint families were still predominant in society. It is the story of Samantha (played by Niktha Rajesh) who is on a mission to reunite her mother Kalyani (played by Sandhana) with her estranged family. The other lead actors in this show are Poornima Bhagyaraj, playing the grandmother Annammal, and Aashish Chakravarthy, playing Surya, the love interest of Samantha. Starting 21 September Suryavamsam will air from Monday – Saturday, at 7:00 pm.
Coming soon to the Zee Tamil audience is Puratchiyalar Dr.Ambedkar, a serial based on the real-life story of Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar. Due to the prevalence of regressive practices of untouchability and the caste system, Ambedkar and his family are treated poorly by the people belonging to the upper castes. Bhim, however, studies diligently and works hard to educate himself, ultimately becoming the bastion, flag bearer, and almost synonymous with ‘social justice’ in India. The promo of this show running currently on TV and social media has already created waves and a very high interest amongst Tamil viewers
Among its non-fiction offerings, Zee Tamil will soon be launching a show called Zee Super Family– a reality game show hosted by Archana and RJ Vijay wherein artists of Zee Tamil shows will come together for this one of a kind game show to offer 120 minutes of non-stop entertainment through a series of fun filled tasks.

This is a story of love, of friendship, of revenge – the ultimate emotional potpourri!
