Sony Entertainment Television is back again, bringing refreshing content for its viewers with ‘Jagannath aur Purvi’ Ki “Dosti Anokhi”.

So, whether it’s the earthy look and feel of the ghats or the breathtaking visuals of Ganges, it will be a treat for all viewers. The show will take the audience on an endearing journey of an elderly gentleman, Jagannath Mishra finding his lost sense of life’s purpose through a young stranger-turned-friend Purvi. Now, how they meet is quite a story in itself. As shown in the promo, impulsive Purvi takes a jump into the river in an attempt to end her life, however, Jagannath ji sees her and tries to save her from drowning.

Apparently, shooting this scene is a remarkable memory for actor Rajendra Gupta, who shares, “On the very first day of our shoot, Ismeet and I had to jump in the Ganges, for the promo sequence. The water was mind-numbing cold, as it was probably 6-7 degrees then. We were super nervous initially and were preparing ourselves mentally, but when the scene got over…it was just exhilarating. It was a very calming and serene experience. By the end of it, it was all just worth it. Not to mention, shooting this scene was the best ‘ice-breaker’, as all of, the entire cast and crew had the best time during this shot.”
