ndian television where every second show was based on a Gujarati family. With this show came an era of 'theplas' and 'garba' and not to forget the eternally loving BAA.After Kyunki ended, atleast Star Plus stopped too many gujrati families from entering their shows. ( Though lot of shows across various channels still loved gujju families. In fact SAB should rename its own channel as SAB-GUJRATI.)
But dear Gujju lovers do not be sad. Star Plus has re- embraced the gujju culture. And trust me it has worked again. Back is the typical gujju accent (which is used only periodically as if just to remind viewers that we are watching a gujrati family) and back is Kinjal ben as well as Gopi Vau.
We are talking about the new family on Star Plus called Saathiya Saath Nibhana. The show has nothing new in terms of story or treatment. But yes it has enough drama to keep the audience hooked to the show. And seeing the show do really well one thing is for sure, Shaadi can always be a high point in an indian television show.
Currently the track in the show is focusing on Kinjal Ben's shaadi as well as poor Gopi Vau becoming the bali ki bechaari bakri. What sells for this show is the cast which seems to be just perfect in the characters that they are playing. Gopi Vau as a timid and sanskaari bahu of Modi family has enough sheen to gather the sympathy of the female audiences. Also Rashi though is not the typical adarsh bahu, yet she looks adorable on screen. Also the plot of the show is kept simple, yet it provides enough masala to keep the drama element intact. Therefore there is nothing surprising that the show is working.
If this was not enough there is a third show on Star Plus called GULAL which is again based in Kutch region of Gujrat. So there is more of gujrat yet to come on Star Plus. And lets hope that the Gujratis once again make Star Plus the number one channel in the country.
Who told only sex and shahruk sell in India. There are Gurjatis as well....!!!
