A transgender’s struggle for her identity, the trials and tribulations of a misunderstood God, making ‘Indiawale’ the true heroes of the country and introducing an app-based LIVE singing reality show. This is just a fraction of the different narratives unleashed by COLORS in 2016 which have received strong audience support. The leading Hindi General Entertainment Channel has, over the past year, unlocked entertainment avenues through its path-breaking line-up of fiction and non-fiction offerings.
