CONCEPT & STORY

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...

CHARACTERS

Full Name: Neelkanth Chanda Rana (Father)
Real Name: Rajiv Verma
Age: 45 years

An autocrat zamindar who has lost all his zamindari. Paisa nahi hai, par rutbe mein aaj bhi koi kami nahi hai... He is a man of few words. He seldom loses his temper because no one has the audacity to stand up against him but if by mistake, anyone crosses his path, God help that person!

"Jo keh diya so keh diya..." That's his attitude! His word must be the final one! He shares a warm relationship with his wife but talks to his daughters only when required. He thinks they are "Parayi amanat, jinko ek din apna ghar jana hai." He loves his son Nirvaan who he feels, will bring back the lost glory to the family.

Neelkanth has 4 sisters. He is the man who has lost a lot due to his sisters. Hurt by his sisters, he has not educated his daughters above SSLC. Does not give them any kind of freedom and has tied them to home. His insecurity makes him a strict father!

Full Name: Nutan Chanda Rana (Mother)
Real Name:
Age: 38 years

Neelkanth's wife. She loves her husband and her husband's word is the final word for her yet manages to get round him tactfully for her daughters. to some extent, she is a help to the daughters but loves and pampers her son to the extent of spoiling him!

She is a typical 'Gujju' housewife, tolerant, always smiling. She shares a very special relationship with her eldest daughter, Krishna.

All her life, she has been the ever obedient wife, very supportive to her husband even though she disagreed on many things because she thinks 'her pati is a parmeshwar' but there are times when she puts her foot down and says: "BAS". A signal to her husband to step back!

Full Name: Krishna (eldest daughter)
Real Name: Gauri Negudkar
Age: 24 years

The eldest among the eldest daughters. Krishna's character is a female version of Lord Krishna. Like Lord Krishna, she uses all the weapons of Saam Daam Dandh Bhed for the good of the
family. She is a devotee of lord Krishna and shares her inner feelings and dilemmas with him and gains strength by interacting with lord Krishna.

Whenever she is in a problem, she seeks solution from lord Krishna. She doesn't except defeat easily. She is a fighter in life and wins against all odds. She is a saviour for her brother Nirvaan and all younger sisters.

A simple girl with 'a girl next door' image. She stands up for her principals in life. Though she herself gets trapped into by situation, comes out of it unscathed. She believes in Karma and is a Karmyogini. Her being a Manglik has caused a hurdle in getting married.

After Parth's death she goes in a state of shock but recovers back slowly.

Full Name: Chaand (Second daughter)
Real Name: Jyoti Makker
Age: 24 years

Dark complexioned and wearing specs... Channd is not a very good looking girl. She has a complex about her looks, no matter how much her sisters and mother try to console her. But God has his ways, he did not give her looks but gave her the brains! She is the most intelligent of all the sisters.

An introvert by nature and a sentimental and emotional person, she cries at the drop of the hat. She never talks abput her problems to anyone in the family and broods all by her self. The only thing she does is writing it down in a diary and vents out all her feelings.

One habit that is a part of her character: Whenever she is tensed or lost in thoughts, the first thing she does is take off her specs and start cleaning the lens with her handkerchief. She is very fond of making Rangoli and tries to fill her colourless life with the colours of rangoli.

Chand loves Parth. Her world is shattered when she is raped & later its revealed that Veer is behind it.  She marries a man who is twice her age & has a daughter from his first marriage, with whom she falls in love.

Full Name: Veera (third daughter)
Real Name: Shilpa Shinde
Age: 22 years

Strong willed and extremely short tempered, she is fondly called the 'Jhansi ki Rani.' No one can win an argument with her as she always proves her point with logics.

Sabse badi baat yeh hai ki Veera ki haazir jawaabi se koi nahi jeet saka .!!

She loves her brother but does not cover up for his mistakes. In fact, she feels that her sisters and mother are spoiling his life. She always confronts him whenever he does something wrong.
An extrovert by nature, she has the habit of clenching her fists whenever in an argument. Sometimes, she bangs the table/wall/
pillow/palm of her hand with her fists when she tries to prove her point (but not when she speaks to her father as she can hardly speak before him)

Her dream is to become a lawyer. She has secretly done her graduation through correspondence course. And is planning to fill the forms to do law. Only her sisters know about it. Her parents are not aware of it.

She is pursuing Law education and the one who enters her life is a Law Breaker... Vedant.

Full Name: Gunjan (fourth daughter)
Real Name: Atishree Sarkar
Age: 21 years

Bubbly and chirpy just like Preity Zinta. She is in love with life! She has no particular ambition in life and loves to talk!

A big chatterbox, she is always the centre of attraction once she starts talking but just that she always goes off-track once she starts talking and eventually forgets the main issue that can actually be told in just a single line!

Gunjan and Parth love each other but none are aware of this. Krishna also loves Parth… Now will Gunjan sacrifice her love for her sister.

Full Name: Sanwari (fifth daughter)
Real Name:
Age: 20 years

The most beautiful of all the 6 sisters, she is a rebel by nature. Her only ambition in life is to become a film actress. No wonder she is love with her looks and is always in front of her mirror.

She is one daughter who has the guts to talk her mind to her father who refuses to listen to her: "An Actress?? NO WAY!!"

Posters torn from film magazines hidden by calendars or other pictures or within her cupboard… That's al what you will find in her room. She loves reading magazines and has the habit of imitating all lead actresses. A good mimic, she watches TV all the time.

She is fond of singing filmy songs and dancing to them. She is in a world of her own. Chalti kam hai, naachti zyada! Aur nakhraa? Hai allah!!

Full Name: Koyel (sixth daughter)
Real Name: Itishree Singh
Age: 19 years

The youngest of the sisters who is pampered by all of them, especially Krishna. She is gorgeous and stunningly beautiful, but then, blind!

But, God has compensated for this loss by giving her melodious Voice. She is a good singer. But then, whenever she is asked to sing during family functions, her father does not allow her.

She accepts life as it comes. Sweet natured with a lot of patience… she never argues with anyone but is emotionally dependent on Krishna. Krishna too is over protective of her.

One guy hears Koyel singing.. and he becomes fan of her.. he always come to hear her song but he doesn't know that she is blind… And one day, he comes with a marriage proposal at the Haveli… Will he still marry her, when he realises that Koyel is blind?

He is a big time liar and often lands up in a mess. Later on its revealed that he is not the blood of Neelkanth Chanda Rana & is shattered & levaes his house. He faces the harsh truth of life & has a complete heart change & comes back to his house Satyug to stay with his family.
