With new shows being launched every other day,it's become difficult to keep track of them, which is why channels are coming up with interesting, innovative, clutter-breaking promos. No longer is it a cut and paste job, promos are shot separately, especially when a show is about to be launched, has a highpoint or a twist. "A promo is supposed to evoke curiosity. Naturally we need to shoot it separately as a story-line. It is like any other commercial that is made for fast-moving consumer products. For instance in Kairi, we have shot a promo where the three bahus are getting together to teach their saas a lesson, but the track has not even started yet," explains Sumeet Mittal, producer.
Another producer points out that a lot of thought and money is being invested in a promo, because it has to grab eyeballs not just for three hours but hopefully for a year.
