Anupamaa on Star Plus is a progressive approach on not just women empowerment but also Indian Bahus

We live in a day and age where content is truly the king and it is only that, which makes and breaks a show. And one such show, that has managed to prove the same is Anupamaa. It is a show that has made people cry, relate to the characters on-screen, and feel many other emotions through what they see. Anupamaa's recent sequence did bring many to tears.

Anupamaa (played by Rupali Ganguly), who is no longer the daughter-in-law to the Shah family anymore, but her Babuji (Arvind Vaidya) has always treated her as her daughter. And hence, when he split the property, he did so between both Vanjra and Dolly, and also Anupama. And that is just about proof of how the stories have evolved to cater to contemporary times, but also doing so keeping traditions in mind. One can sure trust Star Plus to do so with its bunch of shows that empower women, highlight various relevant subjects, and also showing the Indian Bahus ins a different light.

The series is showcasing a very compelling yet often neglected theme, the one that says- bahu bhi beti hoti hai. With people across the country watching the television from their homes, shows like these bring the viewers and their family members to realize that women too deserve to be treated with love and respect, regardless of their status or the roles they play. 

Other shows on the channel continue to set the bar high with the likes of Imlie, Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin, Saath Nibhaana Saathiya 2, among others. From targeting people on the way they think to try to change mindsets while going after patriarchy, Anupamaa has managed to do all those things and a lot more. 

With that and so many other shows, Star Plus continues to align with its tagline of ‘Rishta Wahi, Baat Nayi’.
