MUMBAI: Sony Pictures Television International (SPTI) has acquired a Russian reality show How to Build Your Love from Turner Network Television (TNT). This is the first time that an American company has picked up a format from this territory.

How To Build Your Love is the English version of House-2. The show, first showcased at 2004 Mipcom, has been airing on TNT for over a year.

The series sees 15 young men and women forming romantic relationships as they work together to create a love nest in which to start a family. The winning couple claims the newly-erected $120,000 home.

SPTI has purchased the rights on production of the reality-show in Latin America and Spanish-speaking US states.
