Alia Bhatt says, “What convinced me to associate with Star Plus is the similarity the brand & I share. We both give a lot of importance to our families, friends and relationships etc. and understand their importance”.

Shows like Mariam Khan-Reporting Live, Kullfi Kumarr Bajewala and Krishna Chali London highlight relationships and emotions, while Sabse Smart Kaun is a unique concept which celebrates common people who use common sense. With these am sure Star Plus will continue to touch our lives in the same way like it has been doing for the last two decades.”

Sung by Sunidhi Chauhan and Chaandni RMW, the Star Plus song has been composed by Ram Sampath and written by national award winning lyricist Swanand Kirkire.

The brand signature tune has been composed by A R Rahman, Oscar winner. “While composing the sound identity for Star Plus, I kept in mind the need to create something memorable, inventive and creating a sense of warmth. The tone had to be young, uplifting and joyous while capturing the beautiful journeys of the variety of characters showcased on Star Plus,” Rahman says.
