Artcle:Dheeraj Kumar readies GKLB for zee

The plucky producer, Dheeraj Kumar, who was the man behind the recent topnotch shows like, Jodee Kamaal Ki (Star Plus) and Man Mein Hain Vishwaas (Sony), is gearing up with a latest offering - Ghar Ki Laxmi Betiyaan, which is slated for Zee TV.

This daily promises to infuse a lineup of new stars in the industry. The channel is already flashing the promos of this social saga, which is most likely to be telecast in the 8.30 band on Zee TV.

The crux of the story is the age old Indian concept of the girl child being considered a bojh (liability) by the orthodox mentality. It revolves around the lives of four sisters who grow up with the sordid reality of their parents' craving for a boy child. But, interestingly the soap will also move on to explore how they build their own empires and carve a niche for themselves in the male dominated world.

Speaking exclusively to Tellychakkar.com, veteran actor-turned-producer Dheeraj Kumar says, "People are saturated with the saas bahu tales. I strongly believe that soaps have to portray the social reality in the real sense of the term. It gives hope to people by helping them deal with day-to-day situations in life."

He adds, ""Everyday one hears and reads about the heinous crime of the female foetuses being killed in the womb. Indian families still consider a girl child to be a burden and keep craving for a son. Ghar Ki…will revolve around one such family, which is bestowed with everything, but laments the fact that they have to bear the burden of four daughters."

So, will Ghar Ki ... ride on the fervour created by Saat Phere and Kasamh Se? Lets wait and watch !
