Hindi TV Serial – Na Aana Iss Des Ladoo – Ammaji attacked during the horse race by some people in black
On April 15, 2010 in Colors, Crime, Drama, Family, Hindi Serial, Marriage, Na Aana Iss Desh Ladoo, TV, Video
Santosh is in real trouble. After trying to run away, she is brought back by Ammaji’s men who also kill her relative (but not before Santosh has already met another man). When she is brought back to the house, Ammaji insists on the same thing, that Raghav will be the one who will have physical relations with Santosh so that she can have a baby and there will be no question marks on Jogi after that (it’s very simplistic to assume that one night of physical relations would result in pregnancy, that too when the situation is very emotionally traumatic). However, Raghav, even though he knew that he never would do such a thing to his bhabhi, agrees to Ammaji and decides to go to Santosh’s room. At this, Sia and the other female members of the house are shocked. However, Raghav becomes fully drunk and later tells Santosh that he would never think of touching her, and in the morning, Santosh also tells Sia that everything is fine and that they did not do anything (but at the same time, telling Ammaji that it had happened).
Soon after, Ammaji decides to take part in the horse race, since that is a matter of great pride for her that she is able to defeat the men in the village in the horse race and is shadowed by her men to ensure her safety. However, there are some people in black who are also pursuing her (a new twist in the story), and when Ammaji is in the lead, a rider in black tries to capture Ammaji (at which Raghav manages to save her). In the next, they show a whole gang discussing about how to capture Ammaji, and otherwise trying to capture her children. When Raghav goes to file a report in the police station, he is indeed captured by the same gang, something that shocks the entire household. Now what will happen ?
Hindi Serial – Bandini – Santu exposes the truth behind Moullick and Sandeep, and tries to bring together Kaddu and Shashank
On April 02, 2010 in Bandini, Character, Crime, Drama, Family, Hindi Serial, NDTV Imagine, TV, Values
In Bandini on NDTV Imagine, Santu is going all out to reveal all those are doing bad things behind the cloak of the rich and influential family, and she does not mind if she is blamed for exposing matters. Anyhow, she has a mission to try and bring the family together (but ever since she started out on this mission, she has exposed 3 family members who were upto no good; however, 3 of them have been penalized).
First Santu had exposed Khemi as the person who was trying to prevent the birth of more heirs in the family (she would use poisons to try and kill the baby in the womb so that her son would always be supreme). Once she was exposed, she lost her strong position in the household.
Next was the major doings by the 2 person duo of Sandeep and Moullick. Sandeep was a strong person in the household by virtue of his marriage to Kaddu (who had divorced Shashank to marry Sandeep); this was not something that Santu ever liked since she knew that Shashank was a very good individual while Sandeep was more of a villain. However, until Kaddu could be convinced of this, it would not matter since she was a strong supported of her husband.
Santu got a chance to prove things to Kaddu when she discovered that it was Sandeep and Moullick who were behind the kidnapping and exploitation of women in the area; they earned huge amounts of money from this but it was a dastardly crime that they were carrying out, with the potential of sullying the family name if it ever came out that they were involved. Santu once catches them in the act, and to convince Kaddu, she places Kaddu in a situation where their evil nature was exposed to Kaddu. Now, they are exposed before the family, and the family has placed them before the police. DM also tells both of them that their real punishment from the family is yet to come, and that Sandeep should forget about his wife, Kaddu. He is also starting to re-discover that Santu is maybe the one bright person who is cleaning up the household (inspired by Baa).
Hindi Serial – Crime Patrol – A depiction of crimes in society along with the police-work and motives behind the crime
On March 30, 2010 in Crime, Crime Patrol, Detective, Hindi Serial, Police, Sony, TV
TV news channels have specialized in taking any bit of news and making it into a full fledged drama, such that when any crime happens, it is instantly popularized as breaking news; further, the makers of such news reports are competing with each other to sensationalize these crimes. You will not get to hear an even-handed portrayal of the motives behind such crimes, and very rarely do you get to know more details of how such crimes were solved (or as in the case of kidnappings, what were the procedures adopted by the police to stop such crimes).
Sony has started a serial called ‘Crime Patrol’ (actually it was first introduced in 2003, and then restarted in 2010 – the current year). The purpose of the serial is to get two anchors (the popular television stars Sakshi Tanwar and Anoop Soni) to present how the police investigates and prevents crime; it also shows the method of police investigations. The show started on January 26, 2010, and appears at 8:30 PM everyday.
The serial continues to promise that it will not sensationalize crime, instead presenting the crime as it was, in a simple format that will enable the viewers to understand the actual facts of the crime. The serial is not attempting to create fictional stories, and will instead get the anchors to go to the actual scene of the crime, see the real people involved. The show will not only look at the police force, but even try to determine cases where the BSF, CRPF, ITBP, and other such security organizations are involved. The show attempts to look at domestic crimes rather than terrorist crimes, looking at cases such as kidnapping, theft, robbery, murder, etc.
Hindi Serial – 12/24 Karol Bagh – Simi finally exposes the story of Anuj and how Rajeev Bhalla was also involved
On March 27, 2010 in 12/24 Karol Bagh, Crime, Drama, Family, Hindi Serial, Marriage, TV, Values, Zee
The serial on Zee TV, 12/24 Karol Bagh is starting to move in Simi’s favor. Till just a couple of episodes back, she was in severe trouble. Her marriage with Abhi (who is 8 years her junior) caused a huge amount of shock in all her relations. Except for one of her sisters (Mili) and her father, everybody else was against her. Her mother had publicly disassociated herself from Simi, and her brother Anuj always felt that their father always favored Simi, and that now he would look after himself. Her sister Neetu felt that Simi was behind the capture of her lover, and hence she hated Simi. Her mother felt very strongly that Simi had caused her an incredible amount of public embarassment, and did not want to talk to her anymore. And on the other side, Abhi’s father had also broken off relations and turned out Abhi.
But Simi persisted in trying to do good for her family, and this now came to exposing the wrong-doings of Anuj and Anita. Anuj had started to associate with Rajeev Bhalla and go against his family, including getting the house transferred in his name. Their mother Manju refused to believe that her son Anuj could be causing any of this problem, believing that Simi was trying to defame Anuj. Still, Abhi and Mili went to the bank and tried to find out what Anuj was upto, and also why was there apparently a false notice served to get some fees on the family shop.
And then there was a 1 hour episode of the serial on Saturday (27 March 2010) where it finally became clear to everybody that Anuj was the one who was doing the change in trying to get the house transferred to his name. Bhalla was also pushing him by threatening to reveal that Anuj was the one who pushed his father down the stairs. Finally their mother Manju realized the truth, and has now pushed Anuj out of the house, and out of her life, and to jail.
