Hindi TV Serial – Uttaran – The truth about Tapasya comes out, and she is kicked out of the house by both sides

On August 28, 2010 in Colors, Crime, Despair, Drama, Family, Hindi Serial, Marriage, TV, Uttaran

Uttaran moved towards a major resolution of some of the issues that have been present in the serial till now, with Tapasya continuing to conspire against Ichcha, culminating in the suicide of Vansh when he was provoked by Tapasya; he was anyhow ill due to his long drug use, was not so healthy overall mentally, and when Tapasya brought up his guilt complex, the pressure was too much for him to bear and he finally turned the gun on himself.
For some time Ichcha blamed Veer for this, but it finally came about that Vansh had committed suicide, and with Tapasya willing to give this testimony, Veer was free of the accusation that he had killed his own elder brother. However, Veer knew that somebody else was involved in this, and put in a lot of effort to try and figure out who was responsible. Soon enough his suspicions fell on Tapasya, and he started playing on her emotions to try and get her to admit more.
But the end seemed a bit contrived, since it was shown that Veer took the help of Siddharth, who was blaming Tapasya for everything gone wrong in his life, and when Tapasya finally managed to collect the money to give to Siddharth, Veer took a CD containing the video of what happened. He then called both sets of families together, and after some initial praise, made the entire issue open, showing the video, and blaming Tapasya for everything. Tapasya got angry at this, and refused to accept any blame for the death of Vansh. Finally Veer kicked Tapasya out of the house, and when she came back to her parents house, Jogi Thakur kicked Tapasya out of the house. In fact, when Nani tried to stop him, he told her that she was free to go with Tapasya as well, at which Nani removed her hand from Tapasya’s hand and abandoned her.

Hindi TV Serial – Na Aana Is Des Ladoo – The elections are near, and Sia is also expecting a baby

On August 19, 2010 in Colors, Crime, Drama, Family, Hindi Serial, Na Aana Iss Desh Ladoo, Ruthless, Saas-Bahu, Society

The scene is cast in Na Aana Is Des Ladoo. After a long period where it seemed that Sia had given up the fight, she is back in the bitter fight against Ammaji and is standing up against her in the local elections. Something that is troubling Ammaji to a large extent, since she believes that the women of the village would vote for Sia and make things difficult for her.
Raghav is providing full support to Sia in this, and standing up to his mother, something for which she blames Sia, believing that Sia has taken her son away from her. Further, Raghav was a strong person she had, and so this is causing her more problems. Attempts were made to get Raghav away from the campaign, including by attacking him and causing injuries that would prevent him for supporting Sia. However, all this does not deter Raghav and he decides to continue to stand by the side of Sia, including when aspersions were cast on her.
Sia is trying to empower the women of the village, so that they can fight the injustices being done on them, and some of this message is starting to get through to the women, in a couple of cases, women are shown as standing up to their husbands.
Further, the police presence in the village is troubling Ammaji, since the police is preventing injustice being done, and preventing people such as Joginder from causing problems and doing vote fraud. However, Ammaji has one last card up her sleeve. She goes out and claims that she would want people to vote for Sia, especially since Sia is expecting Raghav’s child, and she hopes that his action will make sure that all the menfolk will vote for Ammaji, and make them also prevent their wives from going out to vote.

Hindi TV Serial – Bandini – The plans of Megha are finally defeated, with her truth being revealed

On August 08, 2010 in Character, Child, Drama, Family, Hindi Serial, Marriage, Mother, NDTV Imagine, TV

Bandini suddenly saw one of the mini-series within the serial coming to and end. The entire drama of Dr. Megha and Vishal has come to an end, with her being exposed as a fraud, and with Santu being restored to her former position. The last 2 episodes caused this entire transformation, and made everything right again.
Dr. Megha was on her way to marry DM (although how DM could marry again since he had not yet divorced Santu was something that no one bothered to explain) based on the fact that DM had a son by her, Vishal. And even though DM refused to believe that he had any relation with her, the DNA evidence was there that Vishal was indeed DM’s son; and when Santu came to know of this, she left DM and forced him to marry DM. However, a chance encounter with a nurse from 10 years back revealed to Santu that Vishal was actually her and DM’s son, and that Megha was upto something, she comes back to defeat that plan.
For some time, it seems that Santu is not able to do anything much, since Megha has stolen the letter, and then when Santu gets a DNA test done in order to prove that she is the rightful mother of Vishal, she does so after telling Megha, and in turn, Megha works with the doctor doing the test to change the report. Then, at the actual time of the marriage, Megha and Sarang (who Megha takes as an ally) plot to kidnap Santu and take her away from the house; however, in the end, they show that it is indeed Santu who gets married to DM (or re-married as they say), and when the truth is revealed, it is Motiben who assaults Megha, and asks the police to take her away.
However, Vishal is very distresses that Megha is going away, and maybe that will form the basis for the next mini-story.

Hindi TV Serial – Bandini – Santu realizes the truth about Megha, comes back to challenge her and take her place back

On August 01, 2010 in Bandini, Character, Child, Drama, Family, Hindi Serial, Marriage, NDTV Imagine, Romance, Saas-Bahu, TV

The show is getting real weird. It keeps on showing the central character of Santu suffering problems (sometimes of her own making, including when she believes anything without adequate proof, and consequently, suffers later) and then overcoming them over a period of time. The current situation in the show is something similar.
Around 6 months back, the show suffered a major problem when there was shown to be a past relationship between DM and Megha, with DNA tests showing that Vishal was the son of DM (even though DM denied that there was ever a relationship between him and Megha). When Santu sees this, she breaks up with DM and wants DM to give Vishal his due as well as the proper rights for Megha (although by her logic, Santu should continue to be the one who should get the most rights from DM).
However, even when DM goes to get her back, Santu refuses to go back, and then, based on the perception that people may feel wrong about DM and Megha, DM agrees to marry Megha. And then it happens. Santu comes across some evidence that indicated that there is a lot of wrong in the claims made by Megha, and comes back to confront Megha. However, the evidence that she had is no longer available, most likely taken by Megha.
Now, the family is against her, and DM also is not in her favor, but Santu is used to such odds in the past. Megha is conspiring with Motiben to cause lots of problems for Santu, and now, there are rumours that the show may go in for another time shift in the future. If something like that happens, then it would seem really odd.
