India set for Ukrainian first

India’s Zee Entertainment Enterprises has picked up four drama series from Scandinavian distributor Eccho Rights for its entertainment channel Zindagi.

Ukrainian series Snowdrop

The package includes Ukrainian series Snowdrop, which will launch on Zindagi this week, making it the first show from the country to be broadcast in India.

Produced by Front Cinema Production for TRK in Ukraine, the series is based on the original format Ice Adonis from South Korean producers CJ E&M and follows two step-sisters divided by love and business interests.

The Turkish titles that form the rest of the deal have not been revealed but come from producers Endemol Shine and Ay Yapim. Previous Turkish titles such as Fatmagul and Kuzey Guney have performed well on Zindagi.
