GEC Colors is set to air its first singing reality show ‘Rising Star’ from 4 February, every Saturday and Sunday, at 9 pm.
It will replace ‘Bigg Boss S10 Weekend Ka Vaar’. Produced by Optimystix Entertainment, the channel has acquired the format rights to the reality show ‘Rising Star’ from Keshet International.
Viacom18 Hindi mass entertainment CEO Raj Nayak said, “Earlier, we had broadcast Sahar’s singing show ‘Sur Kshetra’, but we never produced a singing reality show as we wanted to do the show that is different.
We didn’t want to do what everyone is doing. It took us around a year to finalise all the details and create ‘Rising Star’. When we found about this format, we were excited as no one had done this format before.
But now we are nervous as it is a ‘live’ show and there will be no room for errors but that is the reality of live.” ‘Rising Star’ will face competition from the existing reality shows on other major GECs such as Sony’s ‘Indian Idol 9’, Star Plus’ ‘Dil Hai Hindustani’ and &TV’s ‘The Voice’.
So, what will make ‘Rising Star’ connect with its viewers and what will be the major differentiator?
