Channel V goes for dance fiction show
April 8th, 2011 - 5:48 pm ICT by IANSNew Delhi, April 8 (IANS) While most entertainment channels focus on dance reality shows, Channel V is set to launch the first ever dance fiction show called “D3: Dil Dostii Dance” with “Dance India Dance” winner Shakti Mohan in the lead.
“Dance is a genre that has witnessed the greatest spike in viewership across the industry. ‘Dil Dostii Dance’ is the first ever fiction on dance that will re-invent the fiction genre in the country,” Prem Kamath, Channel V general manager, said in a statement.
“While ‘D3′ simply tells a story of a girl and her love for dance, the show actually displays the passion and determination of the today’s youth. It is their belief that a dream chased religiously can bring you immense success and personal satisfaction,” Kamath added.
“Dil Dostii Dance” tells the story of a girl who fights against all odds and convention to pursue her biggest passion - dance. It also stars Kunwar Amar, again of “Dance India Dance” fame opposite Shakti.
