The show airs on STAR One & STAR World from 9pm to 10pm on Sundays.
The show is noted for its fresh and witty appeal, and it is very popular with the younger audiences. The show began to air in 2004 and was a huge success. The first episode aired on November 19, 2004 and the first season ended on May 27, 2005.
