Balika Vadhu

I am forced to watch this one while my MIL runs it on full blast. how do you accept the divorced woman staying in the house with her ex and his new wife? the damn guy has a third wife. it goes on and on with some idiotic theme where the old lady (albiet a good actress) has great teenage grandchildren and is still unchanged....i cannot believe the bunch of idiots who can watch this trash for years and years. Absolutely bad script. It started with some substance but then went into a cesspool. How can people watch this crappy soap. Waiting for the day when this folds up. How non creative these writers are i cannot imagine.

.....

Actually I watched this show last year when it was retelcasted.... & then I became fan of #SidharthShukla for the second time... 1st time when he was in Bigg Boss.... I loved your chemistry with late pratyusha....

love you #SidharthShukla.

This serial promots child marrige,dont shows the disadvantage of child marrige..

In the witness box, Anandi tells the court that Jagdish's attitude towards women is impeccable!!!!!!!!!! This from a woman who has been treated so shabbily as a wife does not ring true AT ALL. She should have been more sincere about her past experience with Jagdish. Her statement was in poor taste and not fair to Shiv who saw her through her bad times with Jagdish. The write up at the end of the episode praising Anandi for her truthfulness is rather misleading. Granted Jagdish is making an effort to change, but he still has to go a long way to prove himself. Just by treating a few sick patients will not wipe away his behavior in the past - it is the duty of every doctor to do so!

Balika Vadhu was probably the first show on Indian television that broke away from the traditional saas-bahu stories and focused on a real social issue. A brilliant star cast helped this show become the longest running show at the time and the show also helped catapult them to super-stardom.

Avika Gor, Avinash Mukherjee, Anup Soni, Smita Bansal, Pratyusha Banerjee, Sidharth Shukla, Shashank Vyas, Neha Marda, Satyajit Sharma, Amar Sharma, Vikrant Massey, Veebha Anand and most importantly Surekha Sikri play their parts to perfection!

I grew up watching this show and even though they really dragged it towards the end, I was teary eyed when the show ended. It was truly the end of an era.

The love the show has received really shows given the fact that even the re-runs are topping the TRP charts. Balika Vadhu will definitely be written down in history.
