Colors Tamil, the youngest GEC of Tamil Nadu, on Wednesday announced the launch of its brand new spoof comedy show, ‘Kanni Theevu Ullasa Ulagam 2.0’.
As per the company’s press release, the show will follow the story of King Jalsanandha (actor Robo Shankar) and various rib-tickling acts that happen in his castaway island – Kanni Theevu Ullasa Ulagam 2.0. With a slew of stars anticipating their turn to visit the island, the launch episode will see the gorgeous, expression queen Varalaxmi Sarathkumar as a guest.
Recreating the feel of an exotic island, the sets of ‘Kanni Theevu’, with their unparalleled grandeur, are sure to transport the audience to a whole new world. The show is spread across four segments, each funnier than the other. Along with actor-comedian Robo Shankar, the show will also present popular television artists and actor Madhumita in a fun-new avatar Baby Matha and renowned actor Shakeela as Raja Matha. Joining the comedy club every Sunday is also All Access Rajaguru essayed by Dindugal Saravanan, comedy duo Mullai and Gothandam the R&D scientists of the island, and Amuthavanan who performs skits to keep the king entertained.
Commenting on the launch of the show, Anup Chandrasekharan, Business Head, Colors Tamil, said, “We are thrilled to be launching ‘Kanni Theevu Ullasa Ulagam 2.0’. With the who’s who of the comedy world roped in to perform under one roof, this show will set a new benchmark in the Tamil GEC space.
