FIR to go bi-weekly; Tu Mere Agal Bagal to take its slot on SAB TV

With the launch of SAB TV’s upcoming show Tu Mere Agal Bagal Hai (Frames Productions) from 7 July, the channel’s longest running comedy show FIR (Edit II Productions) will once again see a change in timeslot applicable from 5 July. As per reports coming in, Tu Mere… will take up FIR’s current 10.30pm slot. It will air every Monday to Friday. So what happens to FIR? Cuts in a source: “The Kavita Kaushik starrer serial will become a bi-weekly and will air every Saturday and Sunday at 9pm for an hour. Yes, it will be given more airtime from coming July.” Confirming the development, Producer Sanjay Kohli (EDIT II) said, “I think this is one show which has managed to constantly maintain a good response despite so many scheduling changes, unlike any other serial. If I go on to analyse, FIR has had time slot changes at least 3 times every year. I would like to thank SAB TV for giving us the opportunity to try and increase the channel viewership on weekends. I want to wish luck to the makers of Tu Mere as 10.30pm is an important slot for the channel. I am sure it will entertain viewers and gift them lot of laughter.” We contacted channel head Anooj Kapoor, who asked us to call later. We wish both the shows all the very best as they embark on a new journey!!!
