Star Bharat’s ‘Ayushman Bhava’ to go off air within four months

Grabbing the attention of the audience in a time when there are hundreds of other entertainment options available is certainly not easy. Makers of Star Bharat’s recently launched show, Ayushman Bhava, can understand this far better than anyone else at the moment. The show, which went on air on the revamped version of Like OK, failed to draw audiences and now reports are coming in that the channel has decided to pull the plug on it. Yes, Ayushman Bhava is going off air within months of starting its journey.

On one hand, shows like Nimki Mukhiya, Jiji Maa and Kya Haal Mr Panchaal have turned around the fortune of Star Bharat. On the other hand, shows like Ayushman Bhava and a couple of more have failed to live up to the expectations.


Ayushman Bhava started with Avinash Sachdev, Manish Goel and Megha Gupta in lead roles. Soon, it took a leap, enabling the entry of actor, Summit Bhardwaj in the lead role as the grown-up Krish. However, nothing could help the show to improve its performance on the TRP charts and now it is ending.

Ayushman Bhava will bid adieu by 30th December 2017 after completing a run of four months.

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.
