Have seen some Pakistani shows decades ago and were beautifully executed with brilliant acting and that time in India also we had DD,s and start of Z channel , Star Plus , which came with quality shows , had substance . Many were backed by famous authors with crisp script , meaningful dialogues and no dragging . But somewhere those days of meaningful shows lost their way and came the glycerine factories , with stories which took turns to adjust the TRP , so the creativity lost somewhere . If one formula was success in one show then after some time other shows started looking replica of each other . I lost interest in Hindi shows , rarely watched . If some good story comes with strong contents then does not find viewers and is axed . Recently two shows hooked me , one is still in running as it has no dragging , logical and no crap in the name of nonsense . Its work of Sharat Chandra,s Tumhari Paakhi which is subtle , not loud , meaningful dialogues with brilliant acting .
Zindgi channel came as a fresh air . as i was in to English shows . Four of its starting shows were having the gripping stories . never felt that its something from behind the line , it was stories from around us . characters were from real world . ZGH is mature story with touch of light moments in college life which are part of every ones. Meaningful dialogues , as could not stop myself , watching the next ones , its so beautifully done scenes between the two . and really Hats off to makers . And then KMTBNH has touched me , so many people are forced to compromise with life due to poverty . this one is very real . All are just the emotions which are common bonding between the people . And KGBH reminds me the shows on Life OK and Sony which have similar kind of real incidents .

Neerjaa, I think there is a BIG difference in KGBH and Indian shows (I suppose you are hinting to Savdhaan India & Crime Patrol).
KGBH leaves you pondering about how and why people dealt with a situation in a certain way, while the Indian format is more like warning and making audience aware of probable criminal set up.

This reminds me of Shekhar Suman's REPORTER (from early 90's) which was kind of mid-ground when compared to these two extremes of show format. It was fiction addressing societal crime with an impressive representation of non-sensational, responsible and quite conscious press. I still remember, it covered a story similar to 2013's well-known and still going-on sexual assault case.

Yes i was pointing to those programmes but i rarely watch . yes there is big difference as its based on Womaen as whole and liked the way Kiron Kher is sutradhar of this show and leaves with thought provoking questions .Is not these kind of stories around us ?

Yes many of its stories are . These stories are simple and dealt with sensitivities .

Infact i do not watch these Hindi shows knowing based on real incidents .

Even I don't watch them. Just have watched couple of random episodes of SI and that was it! Instead of thought provoking it's more of awareness, which is certainly good. However, shows like KGBH will be a supplementary approach to the cause.

My personal preference is KGBH as it's not preachy but highlighting simple yet significant incidents (had mentioned this on KGBH thread also, but people don't discuss about this show much).
