Mumbai, August 26, 2017: The matriarch of the
family who is often the mastermind of kitchen politics is the most crucial
ingredient of any family show on TV. For decades we have watched the saas
plotting away to glory to have her own way. But what about a Saas whose
obsession for the perfect bride gets her into trouble? For the first time ever, a Saas gets tested
by God on this side-splitting comedy and is the one in a tight spot.
In
India, even the most sensible of mothers become unreasonable when it comes to
finding a bride for their sons. Most mothers believe that their sons are
perfect and the 21st century mother-in-law demands a bride who is not just
beautiful but also a great cook and religious. She needs her daughter-in-law to
be highly educated, driven and romantic enough to keep her son engaged.
To
address this mindset head on in a light and humorous manner, Star Bharat (Life
OK – rebranded) in association with Optimystix
brings ‘Kya Haal Mr. Paanchal’, a
rib-tickling sitcom starring Kanchan
Gupta, as the over-demanding Saas and Manindar
Singh as the compliant son.
The
show follows the consequences that a mother faces when her desperate prayer for
the perfect bride with all 5 qualities finally gets answered but with a strange
twist. The sitcom revolves around a saas’ plight, when, instead of getting 1
bride with 5 qualities she gets 5 bahus with 1 quality each. The bizarre
situation makes for a series of uproarious events, reminding us that we should
always be careful of what we wish for! The show is a sitcom which conveys a powerful
message that when you want more, it doesn’t always turn out to be good. The
show highlights the fact that greed for perfection is bad and one should not
have unrealistic expectations from their daughters-in-law.
The lead actor and
protagonist Kanchan Gupta said, “The show is a satirical yet amusing take on
how mothers are obsessed with finding the perfect girl for their son because
they feel their sons are the best and they deserve nothing but the best. The
narrative is very tongue-in-cheek and relatable - I am sure the audiences will
love the show”
Vipul D Shah, Chairman&
MD of Optimystix Entertainment- added his views on the new show, “For the first time ever on
Indian television, a saas will have to give agnipariksha! We realized it was
time to turn the table and put the saas on the hot seat. The show hilariously
captures the chaos that arises in mundane daily situations when a saas has to
deal with 5 bahus each with their unique quirks.”

become the victim of her own greed in this hilarious sitcom every Monday to
Friday at 8.00 p.m. only on Star Bharat
