“'Memsaab No1' is a marquee property for us," stated Zeel chief channel officer - Bhojpuri cluster Amarpreet Singh Saini. "Given how we have had the love of our audience over nine seasons now, we felt it was time to reinvent. And that’s how the new format has been conceptualised and we’re able to invent Bhojpuri’s first non-scripted reality show. The opening thumping response is testament and evidence of the idea has resonated with the audiences and consumers.”
