Betiyaan Apni Yaa... PARAAYA DHAN!

Get ready for an intense social drama on STAR ONE starting October 10, 2006 at 9 pm.

Betiyaan apni yaa… Paraaya Dhan is a high-intensity social drama set in Rajkot, Gujarat - a city rooted in its culture and traditions. It is the story of 6 daughters and 1 son born into a Zamindar family of Neelkanth Chanda Rana.

Neelkanth is a father who rebukes his daughters and considers them more a burden. They have come into his life only for the want of a son. Krishna, the eldest daughter and the protagonist, is based on Lord Krishna's character and personifies his depth of wisdom and breath of understanding. A simple, honest and principled girl, she is the balancing factor amongst her sisters. Betiyaan... may be considered the story of many a home in India where the daughter is a curse and the son, a blessing. Where it is believed that a son will take the family name further and a daughter is only a burden.

What happens to the daughters of the family? Do they succumb to the pressures of society? Do they stand up against all odds for their identity... Find out more this, only on STAR One!
