The prime-time show will go to air on May 19th and is dedicated to the booming real estate market in the UAE and GCC.
Commenting on this development, Yogesh Radhakrishnan, Managing Director and CEO of Real Media-Zee Network said: "Habitat is our latest concept for local programming that we have customized especially for this region. The real estate industries in the UAE and GCC are some of the most dynamic and innovative in the world. Habitat is a guide amidst the fast changing trends that affect all aspects of this industry from technology to design. I think a show like this was long overdue and I am thrilled that Zee TV has taken the lead in developing this programming concept".
Targeting Asian audiences, the half-hour weekly show has been positioned for prime-time viewing, and will be aired every Saturday at 1930 hrs with repeat telecast on Thursdays at 2230 hrs and on Fridays at 1300 hrs. It will have several segments including tips on the do's and don'ts of buying property, as well as views from builders, developers, financiers, architects, interior designers, brokers, and investors on the best deals in town. In addition, the show will have a special segment to showcase a property of the week, whereby the Habitat team will give an in-depth analysis on the features, amenities, promised lifestyle and value of a specific property.
Manoj Mathew VP - Marketing & Corporate Communications Real Media - Zee Network added: "The show deepens our exciting line-up of local programming across our different channels, from Sa Re Ga Ma Pa- Middle East Challenge on Zee TV, to reality shows like the VJ Hunt on Zee Arabiya, the network's youth TV channel. Habitat will add to this colorful gambit and tell audiences everything they ever wanted to know about their dream home, office or real estate deal. From rotating towers to flying villas to smart homes, we will give you the low-down on it all".
With its state-of-the-art production team and programming concept, Habitat is set to provide an exciting platform for today's key stakeholders in the real estate industry to discuss, analyse and promote this critical and undeniably crucial economic sector.
