    Zee TV has collaborated with actor, writer and stand-up comedy star Mallika Dua to produce exclusive content for a digital campaign to promote the launch of its new fiction offering ‘Hamari Bahu Silk’. The show highlights the story of a young girl Pakhi who signs up for a job of a voice-over artist for sensuous films so that she can financially support her family.

     

    Said Prathyusha Agarwal, Chief Marketing Officer, Zee: “Hamari Bahu Silk touches upon the subject of unconventional career choices, the judgements they draw from amongst one’s own inner circle and the filters of Log Kya Kahenge that come in the way of taking up these jobs. But with the show addressing the issue in a light-hearted manner, we took a humorous approach to build the digital surround for its launch. Mallika Dua, widely applauded for her spot-on observations and irreverent takes on social phenomena makes for a fine fit for us to collaborate with on a campaign like #KaamBadnaam where we celebrate oddly satisfying jobs like the one taken up by our protagonist of Hamari Bahu Silk.”
