When
Madhubala - Ek Ishq Ek Junoon was about to go on air, everyone was worried and confused. Is it based on Madhubala, the actress? Is it a memoir? A tribute? The makers screamed themselves hoarse - this isn't about Madhubalaji, it's about the trials and tribulations of junior artistes in cinema, it's about the industry. What they should have said, was that it was just another show about kitchen politics. Because our damsel in distress junior artiste first married her tyrannical senior artiste (in a
shaadi with just
chaar phere, not
saat, hence the husband dismisses the marriage in every second episode) and since then, has been fighting to win the respect of her mother-in-law, while battling her elder sister-in-law who is also her husband's ex. We're getting a bit concerned here. What is with damsels marrying the distress-causers? Masochistic much?
