Sony Entertainment Television to axe Ladies Special

There is nothing new in general entertainment channels pulling the plug on low-performing shows and make way for upcoming content. The latest show which is set to bid adieu to audiences soon is Sony Entertainment Television’s Ladies Special.

Produced by Optimystix Entertainment, Ladies Special premiered on 27th November, 2019. It revolves around three working women coming from different walks of life. They meet in a Mumbai ladies special local train and become good friends in no time.


Though launched with much fanfare, the show just failed to replicate the success of its predecessor and never garnered good TRPs. According to some reports, megastar Amitabh Bachchan’s Kaun Banega Crorepati will replace Ladies Special. The eleventh season of the popular game reality show is expected to start in August.

Ladies Special, which currently airs at 9.30 PM, will make its exit from the programming of the channel, while Patiala Babes, which airs at 9 PM, will be allotted a different time slot. KBC will be broadcast from 9 to 10 PM.

Anoushka Shankar has called out Air India after discovering her sitar badly cracked when she opened the case after a recent flight. She posted a video online showing the split running across the lower end of the instrument. The clip raised quick questions about how the airline handled it, especially since she said she paid the handling fee and used the same protective cases she always travels with.

Shankar said it was her first time choosing Air India in years, and that made the discovery harder to accept. She added that the sitar had travelled safely for more than a decade on other carriers without even a peg slipping.
