Star Plus has come up with the launch of some amazing concepts in the recent past!! Anupamaa which launched last year amid the pandemic scare has really done well for the channel. There have been many other shows that have been adapted from the regional market, which have seen success.
If Anupamaa has been the best launch for the channel in 2020, it will not be wrong if we say that Zindagi Mere Ghar Aana has to be the best launch in 2021 for the channel!!
When the whole world is striving to get some happiness amid the struggles that the pandemic has offered, here comes a show which is full of positivity!! Zindagi Mere Ghar Aana is a show that will show viewers the huge ray of light that is present at the end of the dark tunnel.
Sakhuja family, which forms the premise of the tale of Zindagi Mere Ghar Aana, will surely teach us how to live life in a happy manner. It is not that the Sakhuja family has not seen sorrow. They have lost a life, the life of their breadwinner, a warrior who fought to save lives by putting on his doctor’s coat. Even after going through this deep loss, they are making every second count, trying to allow the ray of happiness to enter their lives and make them cheerful all over again.
The beauty of the show lies in the way in which every character has been written and executed on screen. Starting from the grandparents of the house (Sudhir Pandey and Sulbha Arya), to the youngest in the family, Kabir (Ishaan Dhawan) and Sonia (Dolly Chawla), every character sparkles to the core and adds value to the main plot.
It is a delight to see veteran actors Sudhir Pandey and Sulbha Arya bring their experience into their characters of Sukhbir and Santo Sakhuja.
The first week totally belongs to the emotions brought into display by the ladies of the house, Nimmo (Swati Shah) and Amrita (Esha Kansara). Nimmo has lost her son while Amrita has lost the love of her life, her husband. The scene where Nimmo blasts the officer asking for her son’s ashes indeed created goosebumps. Her sudden aggression when the neighbour who had earlier stopped the family from interacting with their doctor son who was treating COVID patients, was executed in a very natural manner.
Amrita on the other hand, inspires her family to look beyond the sorrow that they have faced. To see such a woman on TV, only talks about how progressive we should be in our thoughts, especially when situations we face are gloomy.
The makers have brought in the perfect blend of happiness and pain in their narrative. The manner in which the Sakhuja’s fight their pain to smile again, has been very well captured.
The dialogues and the depth with which they have been written, is simply amazing. The one line that touched our heart was the one wherein Amrita said, “Karan abhi bhi zinda hai, bas mere dil se nikalke mere khok main aagaye hain”. It shows the pain with which a wife has accepted the death of her husband and looks forward to seeing his reflection in the child she is carrying.
The show has a very good mix of experience as well as youth. Actors like Sudhir Pandey, Sulbha Arya, Adarsh Gautam, Swati Shah, Kiran Karmarkar, Shubhangi Latkar, Shweta Gautam show the way for the younger and lesser experienced artists to make a mark through the show.
Another amazing aspect about the show is its title song. The motivation the song gives, its unique lyrics, the recall value of it, is exceptional.
Nakul Vaid and Esha Kansara as the lovey dovey couple Karan and Amrita look really cute. The makers have given a well-scripted premise for the dead character of Karan to appear frequently in the show. As the family says, Karan lives on in the memory of all the family members!!
The hero of the show, Hasan Zaidi has just entered and we have seen glimpses of his character Pritam being a ruffian, probably involved in notorious activities. However, with time, the good side of him will truly mesmerize the viewers.
A special mention for actor Ishaan Dhawan who plays the role of Kabir. Amazing exuberance, he brings into his character. A street-smart play boy, with a heart of gold!!
The other actors Ankit Narang, Cheshta Mehta, Shubhangi Latkar, Kiran Karmarkar have a lot to offer and look their roles.
Producer Zama Habib (Qissago Telefilms) who is a renowned Writer is a visionary, who studies situations and premises to the T and puts them into execution in the best way possible. After his cult show Nimki Mukhiya, which got him rave reviews, Zindagi Mere Ghar Aana is a brilliant concept to come up with, especially in the times that we are in today.
Many families have faced tragedies and personal losses during this Covid-hit phase. Zindagi Mere Ghar Aana is the story of one such family which has seen the worst possible days, but is motivated to look at life with a bright perspective, with a smile on their faces!!
We credit 4 out of 5 stars to this show.
