New Show on Zee

Come 9 January and Zee TV will start its new show Mamta. The show, produced by Shobhana Desai, highlights the turmoils of surrogate motherhood.

The story of Mamta takes off when a young surrogate mother is told that her child is still born and she later comes to know that her baby is actually alive and is at the mercy of scrupulous intentions.

"Mamta is a gripping and an intense drama series. Zee TV has always taken the initiative to experiment with new story lines. Mamta is another effort in this direction. The audiences have supported our endeavors thus far and we are optimistic of their continued support," says Ashvini Yardi, programming head, Zee TV.

Neha Mehta (Mamta), Anand Suryavanshi (Akshay Shrivastav) and Preeti Puri (Tanisha) play the lead in the serial. The youngest member and the central character of the serial is the 1.5-year toddler Krish, who has been in the news lately for his starry tantrums.

The show forms a part of the afternoon programming, and will air Monday to Friday at 1 pm on Zee TV.
