Inspiring a Billion Imaginations, Changing lives and Touching hearts, the new season of Satyamev Jayate promises all that and builds on the momentum of the wheels of change started in season 1.
Star India and Aamir Khan, the brightest star of Indian cinema, are returning with the intense, spell-binding Satyamev Jayate that redefined television entertainment in 2012.
Having created new records for viewership and viewer engagement in 2012, which was watched by over 500 million Indians and elicited responses from over 843 cities, 1.5 billion impressions online and a collection of more than Rs. 22 crores in donations, Satyamev Jayate’s newest season will renew its tryst with Indians with a premiere on Sunday, March 2 at 11 am. This will be simulcast in 6 languages across STAR Plus, STAR World, STAR Pravah, STAR Vijay, Asianet, STAR Utsav, Doordarshan and a deferred telecast at 1.00 pm on ETV Telegu. The first tranche in March will see 5 episodes being aired, giving viewers the time to soak in and help create a larger emphasis for the cause.
Mr. Uday Shankar, CEO of Star India, says "When we look back at season 1 and the response it evinced, you can see a new culture of hope for change emerge. Satyamev Jayate truly reflects the aspirations and concerns of the country. In that it has the strength of a nation behind it. We look forward to the support of our audience to take the message of the show far and wide.”
Aamir Khan says, “I am excited about the new season of Satyamev Jayate, a show that is extremely close to my heart. It was a journey of learning and revelation, a tough one for me to tread on but am extremely happy with what we have managed to do this season, in bringing forward relevant and key social issues that matter to the people of this country. With a partner like STAR India, we look forward to taking forward the cause of Satyamev Jayate and enabling more participative and action oriented change this season across India.”
The new season of Satyamev Jayate as the marketing campaign declares is for all those who care for their country “Jinhe Desh Ki Fikr Hai”. It will educate, engage and empower audiences to participate in an action-oriented change, and will be seen running through the year with an innovative programming approach that includes episodes in tranches.
The issues that the show will address this season are those that concern and impact every citizen of India whether they are from Mumbai, Delhi, Cochin or Kolkata. South Indian Superstar Mohanlal comes on board as a brand ambassador for the show in the south. His association will help carry the show's message to a larger audience segment.
The show is supported by a compelling and visible marketing campaign with Star network taking the lead and Press, Outdoor, Digital & Radio providing the immersive surround. Another key element integral to the campaign are the series of on-ground activations with ambient touch-points called “Fikr Touch points” created across the country to take forward the campaign message.
The first season of Satyamev Jayate broke all records in the digital space and was the most talked about show online. The upcoming season will see greater emphasis on digital media using an integrated approach through various digital touch points – Mobile, Social Media, Website etc being amplified throughout the year. There is a special Satyamev Jayate website www.satyamevjayate.in with the goal of engaging and empowering a community of Satyamev Jayate change agents. Airtel has come on-board as the title sponsor and Axis bank as the powered by sponsor for the new season of Satyamev Jayate. Reliance Foundation is the philanthropic partner on the show.
