In two separate incidents, alleged activists of Shiv Sena and a little-known outfit Swaraj Sena have attacked the offices of Colors channel in suburban Andheri and Vile Parle, objecting to its new musical reality show featuring Pakistani artists.

The reality show Sur Kshetra is scheduled to start from Saturday night and will be aired on Colors TV and Sahara One.

According to the police, 15 alleged Shiv Sena activists stormed into the Colors channel's office in Andheri, Mumbai, and smashed it with rods on Thursday night.

A little later, around midnight, the network's Vile Parle office was pelted with stones by two bike-borne men, allegedly belonging to a group called Swaraj Sena, police said.
