Contiloe Pictures to reboot their historical series Jhansi Ki Rani for Colors

According to reports, Contiloe Pictures is set to reboot one of their most popular shows, Jhansi Ki Rani.

The historical drama, based on the life of Queen of Jhansi and great freedom fighter Lakshmi Bai, originally aired on ZEE TV in 2009-2011 and was one of the top-rated shows on the network.


Now, almost 8 years later, Contiloe Pictures has decided to launch a new version of the much-loved series. However, the new show will not air on ZEE TV. The production house has, reportedly, collaborated with Colors for the same.

The makers will introduce a few changes in the storyline and an entirely new star cast is to be put in place to star in the project.

If reports are to be believed, the production house is planning to begin production in January or February, next year.

When Jhansi Ki Rani hit the small screen almost a decade ago, the VFX quality of Indian shows was not up to the mark. But a lot has changed over the years. We believe that the makers are going to use the best technology and manpower to make a highly entertaining and visually appealing series.

More details are awaited.

When Ramayana producer Namit Malhotra sat down with spiritual leader Sadhguru to discuss the much-awaited mythological film, things took a light turn. The conversation, meant to be about the making of the film, turned into an unscripted moment when Sadhguru asked why a “handsome man like Yash” had been cast as the villain Ravana.
