Comedy general entertainment channel (GEC) SAB TV has added vibrant colours and new motifs to its channel and show packaging, which went on air from 9 pm onwards on 21 June.

Argentinian design studio Steinbranding was hired for the revamp.

"Our new look signifies renewed freshness and a positive move into the future, truly articulating the spirit of 'Asli Mazaa SAB Ke Saath Aata Hai'. We have only changed the clothing of the show, but retained the content, concept and basic colours. We have also added more designs which is relayed between soaps," said SAB TV EVP & business head Anooj Kapoor at a conference held at JW Marriot Hotel.

And in order to further propagate the fact that it has a fresher and peppier look it has put together quite a few promotional films on the lines of its existing 'Sab Ka Wakt Ata Hai' called "Saas-bahu," "Mooch" and "Hands-Up."

The channel's management announced that it is going the whole hog on digital with online games and applications. One of these is 'Sabarbia', a one of its kind social game, which has attracted 75,000 people in the past two months.

The channel has also launched a loyalty program called 'Sab ki Sawari', through which viewers are rewarded for watching its shows for longer durations: they get a chance to meet their favourite actors on the sets of different Sab shows. "Then we have school programmes called Sab ki Paathshala that aims to engage with a younger audience by providing them with interactive learning experience," added Kapoor.

Then SabTV has integrated free applications including, SAB Ke Comics - a mobile app available on iOS and Android smart phones. The application has over 100 comic strips of six shows cracking jokes on five popular characters of Sab.
