The Saga of A Sorceress In Love
The supernatural fantasy drama premieres on 27th November, airs every Monday to Friday at 7.30 PM

Mumbai, 26th November 2018: As Indians, most of us have grown up hearing folklore about witches. For generations, we’ve seen them as wicked, cunning practitioners of the occult. Are they the manifestation of our sub-conscious fears or do they exist somewhere in the dark alleys of India’s hinterlands? While we’ll never really know, just imagine all the drama that will unfold if a witch fell in love! Breaking stereotypes about witches and presenting aspects of their persona never explored on Indian television, Zee TV’s next primetime offering Manmohini will take audiences on a trip of edgy fantasy. It tells the story of an enchanting sorceress, her unrequited love, desire, obsession, revenge, re-birth and everything in between. Produced by LSD Films, Manmohini will premiere on 27th November 2018 and air every Monday to Friday at 7.30 pm on Zee TV.
Set against the vibrant canvas of Rajasthan, where every grain of the desert sand tells a story, the show will chronicle the saga of Manmohini, an unfulfilled soul who has been longing to reunite with her love Rana Sa for 500 years and comes back from the past to haunt his contemporary incarnation Ram and his wife Siya. The show captures Siya’s unconditional love for Ram and her spirited battle against an immortal force as fierce as Mohini in order to keep her man.  In this unusual combat between two women, one a selfless modern day mortal and the other an obsessive, immortal spirit who resorts to the power of Bhura Jaadu to win back her love, audiences will find themselves rooting for both Siya and Mohini from time to time. Tune into Manmohini to find out who will emerge victorious in this war of love!
Aparna Bhosle, Business Head, Zee TV said, Fantasy or supernatural thrillers find an instant connect as they offer viewers the relief of escapism. They transport audiences into an alternate reality away from the rigmarole of their daily routine. What sets Manmohini apart within the genre is that it is the first ever to explore the concept of Bhura Jaadu – a lesser known form of witchcraft that draws its power from the desert sands. The objective is not to propagate witchcraft or spread superstition but to tell a fascinating story of love against a surreal, larger-than-life backdrop. Mohini’s love for her man is deep and genuine, it is only her methods that are questionable. So, the audiences will alternate between empathising with her and rooting for Siya in their quest for Ram. With this differentiated offering, the idea is to add variety to our content mix and introduce a new flavour to our weekday primetime.”   

Prateek Sharma, Producer of LSD films, said, “Supernatural fantasy dramas are the flavor of the season and this genre has always excited me. Apart from layers of fantasy, Manmohini, at its core,  is a love story set against the backdrop of Bhura Jaadu. Viewers have been conditioned to perceiving a witch as fearsome and dreary but haven’t envisioned her in love. The show will present Mohini as a woman so helplessly in love that she resorts to witchcraft to win her love. We have gone to great lengths in researching for the show through rare scriptures and the folk-lore from Rajasthan that has references of the traditional Ghagra Paltan cult having practiced this form of witchcraft. As a result, we have been able to nuance our characters in terms of their styling, dialect, their mannerisms and their cultural sensibilities to ensure authenticity in our narrative.  The canvas of the show gives us a lot of creative liberty to explore and experiment with riveting visuals of magic conjured from sand. To give the audiences a sense of authenticity, the show has been shot at some truly fascinating locales of Rajasthan, some of them known to be haunted. Manmohini is backed by strong VFX work that will make it visually spectacular. We feel honored to be associated with Zee TV and we hope to strengthen our association with the channel through this new intriguing offering.”
The ravishing Reyhna Pandit, who plays the role of the mystical Mohini plans to give the idea of witches a whole new definition. She said, “Mohini is not your stereotypical witch. She is a woman in love, desperate for reciprocation from her man. So, she isn’t to be mistaken for an evil spirit. There is integrity and sincerity in the way she loves Rana Sa and comes back to claim his reincarnation Ram who she believes is rightfully her’s. It is her methods of winning him over, through Bhura Jaadu, that are questionable. Witches are historically considered hideous and frightful and the look is usually not easy on the eyes. But, Mohini is unlike any of these, in fact, she is beautiful, powerful and her obsessive streak to get her true love will fascinate viewers and there will be times they will root for her even more than they root for Siya to win Ram. All these factors drew me to the character and I am very excited to bring alive a different side of witches and witchcraft to the television screen.”
The handsome Ankit Siwach, who will be seen as Ram said, “Manmohini will weave magic with its intricate maze of mystery, love, paranormal powers and above all, a gripping narrative. My character, Ram, is a young dynamic businessman from London with a royal linage, a king in his previous birth now reincarnated as an extremely affluent, polished young turk. The show will have flashbacks and shuffles between Ram’s previous birth and his present day while narrating the story of two women at war over him,  Siya - a modern day mortal and the other an immortal spirit Mohini. He finds himself trapped in the web of Mohini’s love which changes the course of his life forever. A lot of hard work has gone into essaying this character and I am happy, excited and nervous all at once.”.
The fresh faced newcomer Garima Singh Rathore is excited to debut as a mainstream television actress with this show. She said, “I couldn’t have asked for a better debut on television than Manmohini and I have a lot of expectations from the show. My character, Siya, is a simple girl who loves her husband a lot and can go to any extent to save him from Mohini’s evil ploys. It is her devotion to Ram that will set her up in a war against Mohini - an immortal spirit who has returned from her husband’s previous life to haunt them with Bhura Jadu. The show is based in Rajasthan and I am originally from Jaipur. Hence, I could relate to a lot of elements and  I hope that the viewers enjoy the show and appreciate me in the character of Siya.”
The show also features actors Vandana Pathak, Neeta Mohindra, Vaishali Nazareth and others in pivotal roles.

Will Siya’s affection or Mohini’s obsession emerge triumphant in this timeless battle of love?
To find out, watch Manmohini starting 27th November, Monday to Friday at 7.30 pm only on Zee TV

The new Porsche 911: more powerful, faster, with a new design

Mumbai. Entering the eighth generation, the new Porsche 911 celebrated its world premiere on the eve of this year’s L.A. Auto Show, with the reveal of the 911 Carrera S and 4S Coupé models. The brand’s icon continues to set the standard when it comes to exclusive sportiness. Unmistakably committed to the Porsche design DNA with a more muscular look and an interior featuring a 10.9-inch touchscreen monitor, the new 911 is timeless and modern. Intelligent control and chassis elements as well as innovative assistance systems enhance the masterfully uncompromising dynamism that the classic rear-engine sports car is famed for.

The next generation of flat-six turbocharged engines has been further developed and is more powerful than ever before, resulting in a performance of 450 hp (331 kW) in the 911 Carrera S and 4S. An improved injection process and a new layout for the turbochargers and charge air cooling system enhance drive efficiency even further. The power is delivered by a newly developed eight-speed Porsche Doppelkupplung (dual-clutch transmission). Additional highlights include new assistance systems, such as the Porsche Wet mode to make driving even safer, Night Vision Assist with thermal imaging camera, as well as comprehensive connectivity now also using swarm intelligence. 

911 Carrera S models start from 450 hp
The turbocharged flat-six engine of the 911 Carrera S* and 911 Carrera 4S* now produces 450 hp (331 kW). This corresponds to an increase of 30 hp (22 kW) compared with the previous generation. Both 911 models beat the four-second mark for acceleration from zero to 100 km/h: the rear-wheel-drive 911 Carrera S needs 3.7 seconds and the 911 Carrera 4S, with all-wheel drive, just 3.6 seconds. This makes both cars 0.4 seconds faster than their predecessors. The optional Sport Chrono Package reduces the sprint by a further 0.2 seconds. The top speed has been measured at 308 km/h for the 911 Carrera S and 306 km/h for the all-wheel-drive version. The fuel consumption (NEDC-correlated) of the 911 Carrera S is 8.9 l/100 km, while the 911 Carrera 4S records this figure as 9.0 l/100 km.

Clear design language, unmistakable identity
The exterior design is completely new and emphasises the leap in performance for the 911 internally coded as 992. Significantly wider wheel housings arch over the 20-inch front wheels and 21-inch rear wheels. The rear end is now the same width across all models, highlighting the slimline centre section. At the front, the body is 45 mm wider. Electrical pop-out handles in the doors emphasise the tapered and smooth side contour, while a bonnet with a pronounced recess evokes the design of the first 911 generations. At the rear, all models feature a rear significantly wider, variable-position rear spoiler and the seamless, elegant light strip. Apart from the front and rear sections, the entire outer shell is now made from aluminium.

The completely new interior is characterised by the clear and straight lines of the dashboard with recessed instruments, inspired by the 911 models from the 1970s. Alongside the central rev counter – typical for Porsche – two thin, frameless displays supply information to the driver. The centre screen of the Porsche Communication Management (PCM) is now 10.9 inches, and can be operated easily and without distraction thanks to the new interior design. Located underneath this there is a compact switch unit with five buttons for direct access to important vehicle functions. In terms of digitalisation, the 911 takes the next step into the future with permanent connectivity as well as new functions and services. The standard PCM features include navigation as well as Porsche Connect Plus. 

New assistance systems increase safety and comfort
In a world first, Porsche has developed the Wet mode, included as standard. This function detects water on the road, preconditions the control systems accordingly and warns the driver, who can then set up the vehicle for enhanced safety, by simply pushing a button or using the mode switch on the steering wheel (Sport Chrono Package). The warning and brake assist system, also fitted as standard, detects the risk of collisions with moving objects and initiates emergency braking if necessary. Night Vision Assist with a thermal imaging camera is optionally available for the 911 for the first time. The adaptive cruise control option includes automatic distance control, stop-and-go function, reversible occupant protection and an innovative autonomous Emergency Assist function.

The 911 Carrera S and 4S models are available for order now. First deliveries are expected mid next year. For country specific model information, pricing and market arrival date, please contact the local Porsche Centre.
