MUMBAI: Star Plus' two prime time shows namely Tu Mera Hero and Tere Sheher Mein are going off air from 14 November.

Produced by Shashi Sumeet Productions, Tu Mera Hero will be replaced by Nikhil Sinha’s show Siya Ke Ram in the 8 pm time band from 16 November onwards.

The last episode of the show Tu Mera Hero, which launched on 22 December, 2014, will be aired on 14 November.

A source close to the development informed Indiantelevision.com that the reason the show is going off air is because it failed to generate sustainable ratings and the channel wanted to air the show in the same time slot.

As earlier reported by this website, Siya Ke Ram, produced by Triangle Film Company, has been conceptualised by Aniruddh Pathak, who brought Lord Shiva’s legend to TV through Mahadev.

Siya Ke Ram will offer viewers a fresh perspective on Ramayan. The story has been envisioned and created by some well-known writers namely - the best-selling author of Asura and Ajaya, Anand Neelakantan and Subrat Sinha – along with creative consultant Devdutt Pattanaik.

Star Plus’ other show Tere Sheher Mein will also air its last episode on 14 November. Produced by Directors’ Kut,Tere Sheher Mein was launched on 2 March, 2015 and aired from Monday - Saturday at 10:30 pm.  

Another source informed that an upcoming show from Rashmi Sharma Telefilms’ titled Saajan might replace Tere Sheher Mein in the 10:30 pm slot on Star Plus.

Rashmi Sharma’s existing show Saath Nibhaana Saathiya on Star Plus is among the top five programmes in the Hindi general entertainment channels (GECs) space according to Broadcast Audience Research Council (BARC) India ratings.

Saajan is a triangle love story, which also focus on issues of the youth. The official date and time is not yet revealed by the channel.
