New Delhi, Jan 19: COLORS’ new fiction drama ‘Agnisakshi… Ek Samjhauta’ traces the life of a couple whose marriage has an expiry date.
It’s the journey of Jeevika (played by Shivika Pathak) whose dream of building a whole new life with her husband Satvik (played by Aashay Mishra) is shattered on the first night of their marriage. Will their love story end before it gets a fair chance?
Manisha Sharma, Chief Content Officer, Hindi Mass Entertainment, Viacom18, said, “We, at COLORS, are driven by the endeavour to create and present content that is diverse and engaging. With ‘Agnisakshi… Ek Samjhauta’, we hope to underline how the traditions related to matrimony are embedded in our cultural fabric. This unique tale begins with a divorce rather than love. It will be interesting to watch the journey of characters as they traverse through the grey areas of marriage. We are happy to collaborate with Pichchar Studio for this show and we hope that this complex, yet interesting journey of Jeevika and Satvik will touch a chord with the audience.”
‘Agnisakshi… Ek Samjhauta’ is a story that chronicles the lives of Jeevika Rane and Satvik Bhosle, two distinctly opposite individuals, who are struck by fate and coaxed into a matrimonial union by their families. Unlike Jeevika, who is happy about the union, Satvik is against it and in a shocking turn of events he hands over the divorce papers to his spouse on the first night of their marriage.
Jeevika is a dreamer, who wants a fairy-tale love story and to build a family with the person she loves. Satvik, on the other hand, has already given up on the idea of love and happiness, his only dream in life is to fulfil his father’s wishes. It will be interesting to watch the story of these two opposites as they get married and are to be divorced on the same day.
Producer Srividya Raj from Pichchar Studio added, “We usually see marriages that start with love but Agnisakshi… Ek Samjhauta is a unique love story which starts with divorce. We are excited about collaborating with COLORS for a story that explores the nuances of marriage and familial relations. What sets the show apart is the unpredictable turn of events that unfold after the marriage and divorce.”
Talking about his character, Aashay says, “Satvik’s character is an extremely intriguing one as there are several shades to it. Our show Agnisakshi is all about a marital bond between Satvik and Jeevika and how their relationship blossoms over a period balancing the unevenness between them is something worth watching for our audience. I am delighted to join the COLORS family and I hope the viewers will support us in this brand-new journey.”
Talking about her debut, Shivika commented, “I am extremely grateful to mark my debut with COLORS and bag such a dynamic role in Agnisakshi. My character Jeevika is a very simple family-oriented girl, full of life who believes in the institution of marriage and desires to have a happy one. The show trails a unique love story of Satvik and Jeevika which begins after a life-altering decision of divorce. I hope the audiences connect and become a part of this splendid journey and shower their love always.”
Produced by Pichchar Studio, the show will premiere on January 23, and will air Monday to Friday at 9 PM on COLORS.
