MPKK:About the show

As the saying goes, it's amidst the nastiest muck that lotuses bloom, Mitwaa Phool Kamal Ka is an innocent love story amidst the menacing traditions and caste issues where people are ready to pull swords to protect their pretentious honor.

This take is set in rural UP' against the ultra-traditional backdrop of an upper caste Hindu family, led by Maamchand Choudhry, so hideously conservative that pregnant mothers are made to undergo illegal sonographies to figure out if the child is a boy or a girl and girls are dropped'

It is such a world where caste and creed decides not only everyone's fate but their life as well. The traditions are so rigid that any deviations from the set caste rules end up in honor killing. Maamchand Choudhry and his sons are the ones who set such rules.

It's in this family that a newly-wed bride, Sargam finds herself'

It's here that she sees her elder jethani is forced to quietly undergo an abortion of her girl child'

It's here that, when Sargam discovers through a sonography that her child is a girl, she decides to lie and say it's a boy and still give birth to it

It's here that Sargam furiously & meticulously tries to hide the child's identity even as her husband, Raghav while the entire family is preparing for the celebrations for the birth of a boy'

But, for how long can she pull on this dangerous charade'?

Mitwa - Phool Kamal Ke is the story of Sargam's young girl child, Bela who, after being discovered, was sequestered & brought up in isolation, so that the family didn't lose face in society on having lied about the birth of a boy'!

It's also the story of a harassed, wronged, angry young lower caste guy, who has vowed to avenge his parent's death; his parents were victim of the heinous caste system too. His father, a lowly man and his mother had upper caste blood in her veins. Their only sin was that they defied the caste system and fell in love. Their punishment was death in the name of honor. He grew up breeding tremendous hatred inside him against the society where honor killing is the answer to love.

What happens when pure hate meets pure love'?

Emerges the ultimate, most innocent love story, set against the backdrop of the dirty secrets of our bias against the unborn girl child

Will society doom the relationship from the start?

Or, will love be able to surmount all odds, & bloom, just as a lotus does surrounded by muck?
