MUMBAI: Sony BBC Earth, India’s premium infotainment channel, is all set to premiere ‘Serengeti’, a 6-part series set in the popular national park of Africa, by the same name. Shot across the lush grasslands of the national park, this pioneering series follows the interconnected stories of a cast of the most iconic savannah animals and premieres on September 9 at 9 PM. All episodes, full of real-life drama, fast-paced intensity and nail-biting tension, will be available in English, Hindi, Tamil and Telugu, only on Sony BBC Earth.
For the first time, Sony BBC Earth organized screenings at iconic and culturally rich places to give a ‘feel-alive’ experience to the audience. While the screening at DakshinaChitra, Chennai’s best heritage museum, was for less privileged children of Uthandi Government School, the screening at India Habitat Centre, Delhi’s premium multi-purpose convention centre, will be open for all.
The exclusive screenings of the first episode of Serengeti is piquing the interest of the audience, capturing their imagination and providing an experience like never-before, leading them to watch the remaining episodes on Sony BBC Earth. Even on social media, the engagement is high as users are treated with mind blowing facts and gripping videos, giving a sneak-peek into the extraordinary stories from the series.
Narrated by the award-winning British actor (of Star Wars fame) John Boyega, Serengeti is about love and loss, jealousy and rivalry, tragedy and triumph, as the lives of these animals entangle and dramatically unfold in the heart of Africa. Using ground-breaking filming techniques and an original music score to put you at the heart of the action, Serengeti brings natural drama to the screen in an intimate and breath-taking detail.
