Channel V goes for dance fiction show

New Delhi: While most entertainment channels focus on dance reality shows, Channel V is set to launch the first ever dance fiction show called "D3: Dil Dostii Dance" with "Dance India Dance" winner Shakti Mohan in the lead. "Dance is a genre that has witnessed the greatest spike in viewership across the industry. `Dil Dostii Dance` is the first ever fiction on dance that will re-invent the fiction genre in the country," Prem Kamath, Channel V general manager, said in a statement.

"While `D3` simply tells a story of a girl and her love for dance, the show actually displays the passion and determination of the today`s youth. It is their belief that a dream chased religiously can bring you immense success and personal satisfaction," Kamath added. "Dil Dostii Dance" tells the story of a girl who fights against all odds and convention to pursue her biggest passion - dance. It also stars Kunwar Amar, again of "Dance India Dance" fame opposite Shakti. The show goes on air Saturday night. IANS
