## History

[edit]

The channel was rebranded under the Viacom18 Colors franchise on 22 March 2015 with the tagline "Saaj Nava, Rang Nava" (translation: New Trappings, New Colour). It again rebranded itself on 27 July 2015 with a new tagline "Rang Marathi, Gandh Marathi" (translation: Colour Marathi, Fragrance Marathi). After that, it again rebranded itself in 2019 with the current tagline "Jagnyache Rang Marathi" (translation: Life's Colour is Marathi).[3][4] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, they stopped their current programming on 21 March 2020 and resumed programming on 21 July 2020 after four months.
