The first-of-its-kind property allows celebrities from different walks of life to leverage their fame for the benefit of the common man. The show is a dramatic entertainment offering, from the channel, which conveys a strong social message to audiences. Mission Sapne will showcase India’s most loved Bollywood Entertainers as they step into the shoes of the aam aadmi for a day, and face hardships to raise funds for those who struggle to make ends meet. The show is set to hit airwaves in Summer 2014.
Top celebrities from across Bollywood, television, sports and music will be volunteering in this Mission including actors Salman Khan and Varun Dhawan,cricketer Harbhajan Singh, and singer Mika Singh among others. True to the person he is helping, the celebrity will move away from their comfort zone to drive a taxi, sell fish or become a door-to-door salesman for the very first time. These celebrities will be required to use their talent, wit and star persona to ensure that business continues to boom for the people they are supporting and change their ordinary and tough life to an extraordinary one. Audiences will get a chance to see the various difficulties faced by those who bring comfort to our lives.

With everything that our audiences have given us in making COLORS a household name, Mission Sapne is our endeavour to give back to the society by bringing the life of a common man to the limelight and sharing their story for the world to behold. We would like to thank the celebrities associated with Mission Sapne for extending their support and helping us lighten the burden of a tough life from some less fortunate shoulders by raising funds for their welfare.”
