Dear friends,

Recently i read an article about DSDDSB in TOI where the show was lavished with praise and there was also a mention that this show is a remake of telegu show called Shravanthi. Since curiosity was killing the cat, the cat ( read me!) decided to do some research on this Shravanthi show. What I read disgusted me to the core. ๐Ÿ˜ฒ Ofc, I know that DSDDSB can never be like that one but the production house, UTV should not have likened it to Shravanthi.๐Ÿ˜ก

Here goes the story of Shravanthi. Shravanthi is a young middle class girl, who like her peers aspires to have a happy married life with a man who will love and understand her. All her dreams come crashing as one day, a prince charming, a rich and a stylish man approaches the family to ask for her hand in marriage. After the wedding, Shravanthi's nightmare begins and she realises that she is trapped in a golden cage. Her husband turns out to be a wolf in sheep's clothing. Her cup of sorrow and disgust (mine too) spilleth over when her husband wants her to go and please his business partner. Shravanthi plots her own death and escapes. She reaches another city where she meets n auto wallah. She finally feels settled in life till the auto driver sells her to a brothel owner. ...

I cannot carry on, my head is reeling. Why did UTV had to say that DSDDSB is based on Shravanthi?๐Ÿ˜•

Why ? am sure that this show will not plummet to such an abyss but in future such a misinformation should be avoided.

Eww! ๐Ÿ˜• I'd read this article yesterday too and was wondering what 'Shravanthi' in Telugu meant?

But the story.. we have seen how possessive he can be so business partner thing would not happen I feel. ๐Ÿค” Infact, there is nothing about pregnancy in that story too? Even super-Daadi..

I am quiet sure that the story will be different here what with the psycho aspect. But why mention Shravanthi in that article.

I am sure KV is enacting a grey role and not a totally black one. Fingers crossed!

Agreed!!! They should've written that the show is inspired or the theme is inspired by the telugu show.. but no waysss V will never ever let go of Jhan to his business partner or anyone..๐Ÿ˜† infact that reminded me of Sanju in Jail..๐Ÿ˜Š but yes UTV producers should've diplomatically avoided such informations.

Just read a plot-summary of the Telegu show. It is an adaptation of 'Sleeping with the Enemy', complete with a 'Saviour' who rescues the heroine from abusive husbands, pandering autowalas et al! Unlike the husband in SWTE(and Viraj), the husband here is not a pathological case, but a villain out and out. Not by any means an aggressive and possessive 'lover'. Also, he doesn't seem to have been the central figure in this narrative that focuses more on the trials and tribulations of the female lead...and then there is a 'positive' man also who helps her out in the end.

So, it's a different premise altogether...or so it seems! From what we have seen till now, it is not possible for Viraj to do that kind of a thing.
Then why did UTV compare DSDDSB with 'Shravanthi'?
