Aap Ki Kacheri extended by 52 episodes

Breaking all previous records, the common man's lok adalat on the television screen Aap Ki Kachehri Kiran Ke Saath gets the vote and rules the charts in the 10.30 p.m. slot among all Hindi GECs. And keeping its popularity in mind, the channel has decided to extend Aap Ki Kachehri Kiran Ke Saath by another 52 episodes.

Launched on December 1, 2008, Aap Ki Kachehri is the biggest weekday prime time launch of 2008. Initially it was believed that the show would only bring in female viewers but recent figures show that almost half the viewers are in fact male. The show has created ripples with markets like Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh and Rajasthan delivering phenomenally well.

Aap Ki Kachehri Kiran Ke Saath features real people, real cases and real situations with an aim to educate and entertain. It gets disputing parties on the small screen to discuss their issues, examine probable solutions and solve matters amicably, while educating viewers on the legal aspects of such situations. A unique format of a reality show, Aap Ki Kachehri Kiran Ke Saath, has provided television viewers in India a sneak peak into what life would be if there was an out-of-court arbitrator to solve day to day disputes that people find themselves involved in.

Siddhartha Basu, the producer of the show, is overjoyed with his show’s success. "This is Ghar Ghar Ki Kahani (every household's tale) with the difference that nothing is fake or scripted, yet it touches many chords as the human interest is high. This is real life courtroom drama of conflict and resolution, dealing with common disputes and dilemmas that everyone can relate to. At the same time, it is an eye opener for many on relevant laws, rights, duties, and issues of balance, harmony and equity,” he says.

Aap Ki Kachehri airs on STAR Plus at 10.30 pm, every Monday to Thursday.
