Banijay Asia has been instrumental in bringing audiences engaging and unique content. The leading content production company adds one more feather to its cap as it is set to expand its content library with its upcoming Kannada show, Rani - ಮಾತು ಒರಟು... ಮನಸು ಕ್ಯೂ ಟು.

As part of a multi-title and multi-platform deal with KS Ramji, this show is just the beginning of Banijay Asia expanding its foothold in the regional markets. Rani is set to air on Star Suvarna, starting April 3. The show stars Chandana M. Rao and Praveen KC in pivotal roles.

Set in a village, Rani traces the story of a young, lovable girl who has a hearing disability due to an accident in her childhood. A certain turn of unforeseen events alters the course of Rani's life when her mother and brother die. As she grows up, Rani forms a special bond with her beloved goat, Cherry, who is her constant companion through every hurdle. Into her simple life enters the dashing Arjun, a scion to an extremely rich family, and it's love at first sight for him when he sees Rani. Posed with many challenges and hardships, Rani sets out to seek justice and avenge the deaths of her mother and brother.

In the last couple of years, Banijay Asia has cemented its position as a leading content production company, and with Rani, they are set to expand their content library and set foot in the Kannada region. With a vision to expand its audience base, cater to diverse tastes, and entertain the masses with unique and gripping content, Rani promises to inspire audiences with a story like never before.
