Saabki Laadli Bebo on Star Plus – Bebo finally gets Raano to admit to the truth and get back her claim
On May 19, 2010 in Character, Drama, Family, Hindi Serial, Marriage, Romance, Sabki Laadli Bebo, Star Plus, TV, Values
Who would have thought that Bebo would be capable of doing this kind of planning. After all, Bebo was the more honest one (although in the previous occasion when she revealed the truth behind Goldie and Gursheel’s behavior, she had also done a lot of planning to break up the team) and one would have thought somebody like Raano would have been more capable of detecting such falsehood and not getting caught up in this trap. After all, planning to get Raano to shoot Babloo with a planted pistol (with fake bullets), getting Babloo out of the shallow grave, and then using Babloo to scare Raano at regular intervals (where Raano feels that she is seeing the ghost of Babloo and nobody else is able to see either Babloo or the items he leaves such as blood or mud) is the mark of a devious mind.
Finally when the police has come to take away Raano, she reveals the truth that she is actually Raano and not Bebo, so that the police will arrest Bebo rather than her (which is actually what Bebo wanted, she wanted Raano to say the truth about who Bebo is, and who is Raano). However, Bebo has a bigger plan. She really does not want Raano to be arrested (after all she has learnt that Raano is actually her sister, since Bebo has been adopted), so even the police is fake. And in the end, in front of everybody, she tells Raano that she has forgiven Raano for whatever Raano has done. This forgiving is something that Raano is not able to tolerate, given that she just learnt that Bebo outsmarted her and broke her chance of settling in with the family and replacing Bebo.
Hindi TV Serial – Behnein on Star Plus – the fight of 4 sisters against many odds
On May 17, 2010 in Behnein, Character, Child, Drama, Family, Hindi Serial, Saas-Bahu, Star Plus, TV
As usual, for any serial, there has to be drama, there has to be intrigue, there has to be relatives plotting to steal money and property, and there has to be tension between a daughter-in-law and mother-in-law, with the husband getting stuck in between.
In the case of this serial, it is a serial that takes the life of 4 sisters, whose parents died in a fire caused by a short circuit. However, this fire would not have taken their lives, except for the case of the aunt of the girls, their father’s sister, who hid the key to the room in which the parents were. The sister, Nimma Fai, had decided that the fire should let the parents die, and so it happened when the parents die. Now she wants the sisters to get married off so that she can take the property for herself.
The sisters are basically straight, but it is not necessary that all of them are fully strong, as the second eldest sister Smriti is weak in the head, and this gets further enhanced when her mother-in-law hides the medication she needs. Smriti has given birth to a baby Prem, but when it seems that her mental health could cause problems, her mother-in-law Kamini forces her to go to a mental health institution; at this, eventually the husband, Mihir would be marrying another girl Mansi to give care to Prem. However, Mansi is after his wealth, and to prevent this, Smriti’s elder sister (Purvi) married Mihir (one wonders how she could get married since Smriti’s marriage was not dissolved) to the shock of Amar, with whom Purvi was supposed to be married to.
Hindi TV Serial – Bebo on Star Plus – Bebo (raano) getting caught up in the murder of Babloo
On May 16, 2010 in Drama, Family, Hindi Serial, Marriage, Romance, Sabki Laadli Bebo, Star Plus, TV, Values
This serial is getting pretty confusing, with the fight between the doubles getting very confusing to describe (so let us call the original as Bebo and her double as Raano, although now Raano is acting as Bebo, and Bebo is being forced to act as Raano). Raano actually killed Babloo, the brother of Gursheel, even though both Gursheel and Raano are both on the same side. And the evidence is slowly piling up against Raano, to the extent that the police have come once to arrest Raano but Amrit stops them by asking for the proof; he manages to evade the arrest for some time. Now Raano is in a loop since she keeps on seeing Babloo (dead, in terms of either the body or some other signs of the murder – obviously somebody trying to scare her), and yet when anybody else comes there, the signs are gone (could Bebo be doing this ? A bit hard to believe that Bebo could be doing this).
Goldie is about to get married to King (an actor playing the role of King), although it is all make believe; then a mother to King is introduced so as to stop the marriage, and it works; she claims that she will not allow the marriage since Goldie does not have divorce and also has a child; if she wants to get married, then she needs to get the divorce papers and lose her child (a tactic to get rid of her and get the child back).
Bebo arrives at the house and claims that she has the memory of Raano back, and will leave the house and go back; she is sorry for whatever she has done till now. Raano is shocked at this and confronts her in a market about what new tactic is this. Bebo wants to now do a plan where Raano will be so problem afflicted at being Bebo that she will herself claim that she is indeed Raano, and will thus make the truth known in front of everyone.
Hindi TV Serials – Mann Ki Awaaz Pratigya – Pratigya fights for the rights of her elder sister-in-law Kesar
On May 11, 2010 in Character, Drama, Family, Hindi Serial, Marriage, Pratigya, Saas-Bahu, Star Plus, TV
Now Pratigya is married into the household of Krishna, with Sajjan Singh being the head of the family. This is a family that is very less cultured, very much unlike her own family, and further, she continues to have issues with Krishna since she had to marry him pretty much under force. However, Krishna is trying to have a lot of patience, since he is not used to the idea of somebody refusing him like this, and is also standing up for her in the family (to the extent that his mother taunts him that he is always standing up for Pratigya, and does not have the same independent attitude that he used to have earlier).
After the honeymoon (where Pratigya refused to let Krishna touch her, something that he does not like and does get frustrated over), Pratigya is back in the house, and starts observing some stuff happening in the house that she does not like. This is primarily related to the relationship between Krishna’s elder brother Shakti Singh and his wife Kesar. Kesar is dark complexioned, and Shakti Singh torments her for the same, to the extent that he refuses to let her give birth to a child since he worries about the dark complexion getting passed on. For this purpose, he has forced Kesar to get aborted three times already, something that is hidden from the family members; they in turn torment Kesar as being incapable of giving birth since they do not know the truth.
Now Pratigya is going to stand up for Kesar and ensure that the household knows about the truth, that Kesar is again pregnant and Shakti Singh is forcing her to get an abortion. This is also critical since the family wants to get a heir, and does not believe that Kesar will be able to provide such a heir; the important thing is that Pratigya would be able to provide the moral support that Kesar needs to stand up to her husband.
