Fremantle Media ventures into fiction with a 'counsel based show' titled 'Lifeline' for a leading GEC

Fremantle Media, makers of the super-successful Indian Idol series now venture into fiction with a very unique concept which provides the much-needed ‘ray of hope’ to individuals who have lost the faith in life. The show presently holds a tentative title of ‘Lifeline’ and is being made for one of the leading GECs. We hear that Fremantle is working on the show which will be a weekly with the episodic concept. It will deal with real-life cases of people who desire to commit suicide or get into depression for certain reasons. The team of doctors (who will be the permanent cast in the show) will counsel such patients and show them the right path to live life happily. Every episodic story will come out with a moral wherein a person who is dejected to the extent of ending his life for some or the other reason will be rejuvenated to the extent of beginning life afresh. The casting for this show is presently on and it is heard that quite a lot of celebrities will be a part of the episodic series. We tried contacting Anupama Mandloi from Fremantle Media, but could not reach through to her. Fremantle Media is presently producing Aamna Saamna Investigative for Colors and is on the verge of coming up with Indian Idol Juniors. Watch this space for more updates…
