hello ji 🤗 i think making a topic after long .. donno know how long 😆 so here it goes

"One of the first things he did was sever ties with Balaji. That signalled the beginning of a transition that is still going on. Several experiments later, came a slew of shows that resonate better ' Satyamev Jayate or Saathiya." quote unquote from Uday Shankar's interview with business standard

http://www.business-standard.com/india/news/teabs-uday-shankar/478435/

We wondered or atleast I wondered Why Saathiya is on the same platform or why it is even con-jointed with the likes of Satyameva Jayathe. While SNS is pure fictional.. and Satyameva is a mirror of the real situation.. the phrase "Several experiments later, came a slew of shows that resonate better ' Satyamev Jayate or Saathiya." when people read this.. they will be taken aback, why did they mention Saathiya, out of all the shows (many thought it to be because of actor replacement ...hell No) with Satyameva.. what is the underlying connection between these two shows...

Well., here is what I feel.. SNS, which people see as just another saas bahu drama, is such a show, which for the first time, since 2000, the inception of Balaji Era.., is dealing with or highlighting the social, day-to-day, civic issues in a cinematic way which reaches out to the people... if we keep counting about the issues they have touched, we will be astounded ' because none of the show dare touch it.. and SNS surely fits the Nayi Soch .. or I would say.. it was not like this during the first 2 years of SNS... but in the recent past .. they are moulding the show so creatively that they added the element of social TV (social TV is TV programs reflecting the social issues...be it pratigya or ruk jaana nahin...according to Uday Shankar Ji )

Let me try to put them together..

1. Education of female - irrespective of age or marital status they encouraged education of a girl/Woman...
2. Women empowerment through home based achaar business
3. Dealing with the middle men like the shah caterers who intoxicate food with articficical color and also make sure you are alert in business
4. Gopi raising voice for the improvement of jail conditions
5. showing how fatal can the open bore well pits be.. which is illegal
6. Doctors operating or treating for extra money, never trust one doctor, always go in for a second opinion ,. it is not your option .,. but your right
7. Doctors negligence of forgetting items inside the patient's body during the surgery ..
8. Not to believe in fake and false babas or sages (as shown in kinjal didi track)
9. Don't harm the birds during the kite flying with the string.. by pasting the string with the glass pieces
10. You can't escape paying taxes forever.. pay your taxes regularly (Savita ben track)
11, and how to handle the conmans and beware of conmans like RGB
12. Avoid air and noise pollution by having a diwali free of fireworks and crackers
13. Modis adopting Gandhigiri towards the docs... social change.. violence does not work for sure... nonviolence has the GUARANTEE


and we can many more to it..(as i don't remember all ...blame it on my poor brain)... with the new direction the show is getting .. it is well beyond the dhoklas and the theplas... washing clothes or kneading the dough

so coming back to the topic.. Satyameva Jayathe highlighted the MAJOR social issues which were crumpling the society .. SNS is highlighting the same social issues through the fictional stories and fictional characters...
SNS is, no more about KKs .. or about Saas-Bahu.. it is well above that ..

I think no show in recent time touched the real social issues like SNS did.. it reminds me of the show RAJINI by priya tendulkar.. it was on similar lines with regards to the everyday issues

Unlike, Satyameva Jayathe.. here in SNS, the these issues are touched through characters like Gopi, Rashi, Urmi or Koki and tell a story which makes you think about it..but people feel the borewell track.. the achaar track boring ':((... these issues raised in the show, can make u to relate to something you read in the newspaper or u can relate the event to a person around the corner of your street .. that is the beauty of SNS.. which in the last few months have taken a clear and definitive change to the storyline.. which represents the SOCIAL TV '

Are you proud of watching SNS.. are you not happy to see SNS which is on the renewed path well over dhokla and thepla.😆


Kudos to SP and SNS 👏⭐️👏

Good post Munni👏
SP has changed its ways from the Ekta days. While I did enjoy Ekta serials for their drama, they were usually spun so out of reality or what is reality in circles around me.. (extra marital affairs are not cool in my dictionary😊)
Again, dramas like SNS is just fiction. We should not except them to be real or for that matter even want them to depict 'reality'.. We have reality all day long. Fiction is supposed to take to away from reality for those minutes.. But the concept that if it is too unreal, then we cannot connect to it is what makes the drama depicts DILs, MILs, SILs , spouses and emotions.

No drama teaches you something on its own. It is our interpretation of what is shown that is important. For example, in the ME, they show how the Modis bring fraudulent doctors to justice but then they also show how doctors can easily fool patients. As a viewer, I decide what is right and take that or I do not take anything out of the serial. It is a choice and the decision is with the viewer.

I know it is derisively said that serials like SNS are Saas bahu ones, have nothing but kitchen politics in them. Unfortunately or fortunately all houses have kitchens and politics comes with it😆 Added to that everyday occurrence is also small social messages.. Not just education.. Also things like don't waste water, animals should not be caged in the name of pets, avoid drinking, eat outside less for your health.. Things that moms say all day long and we listen and yet not listen to😊

Whether 2 years before or now, I think serials have handled social issues including domestic violence.. When we are indignant at the way Gopi was treated, I think a social message was given... Never stand for domestic violence. Stand up against it. As I said the perspective is all that matters..

But I agree that currently, these messages have been added more in SNS.. And also other serials in SP. For example I saw a track dealing with how families should support old age elders at home, there was also a message of how woman should stand up against corruption and violence at home..
Some tracks make it obvious and some do not. We can take pleasure in the silliness as some call it or try to see the good side.. The glass is always half full.. 😛 I

Again... No fiction is reality.. So never expect to see 'real' in dramas.. Heck... Not even reality shows are real😆

Koki was great...she was the heroine of the show today...
angry ahemji wasa delight...he looked like he would happily strangle doc ...so lovely..to watch..
gopi was calm whenothers were ruffled...promoting true and right path...love her when she is so confident and courageous..
I knew it Gandhigiri can not be rashi's doing it has to be Gopi's brainwave...
