Ram Kapoor

as: Ram Kapoor

He is the eldest son of his family. After his father’s death it’s he who had to take the responsibility of the business as well as home. A very straight, no nonsense guy. Ram has his ideologies of life clearly laid down. Is in his early 40’s and has this notion that he isn’t fit to marry now as now he is too comfortable with his own company and doesn’t need anyone to share his space with. Is into his business and looks after every little thing that his family need. A complete metropolitan rich bachelor. He is shrewd and a little cold at times not because he is not sensitive to other people’s feeling but more because he hasn’t opened up to anyone apart from his childhood friend. Doesn’t have too many friends. Doesn’t believe in socializing at page three parties rather he believes in escalating his business empire to unreachable heights. Puts his family before everything. His mother is at the center of his life. Not a typical Mamma’s boy but rather respects his mother to the heights of devotion and cannot say no to her.

Deepak Qazir Kejriwal
Deepak Qazir Kejriwal

as: Raghav Sahay

Mamaji is the negative character of the show, who is what we call as the toady to niharika. He is comical in his ways, for the fact that that he is a kleptomaniac, has a tendency to steal every little flashy thing, from a perfume to even salt cellars. Also, to the audience's surprise, he always raves about his American tours and exotic vacations, which stand as a foil to his petty habits of stealing. We can see his 'double standards' personality trait, in his conversations with Niharika, where, he makes fun of priya and calls her a hag...juxtaposed to, at the same moment, he praises her of being simple and elegant. On surface he is light - heart and comical, but his evil ways unravel, when he insinuates Nihaarika about how to rule over ram forever. He is pivotal in getting ram and priya married, as he packages, and convinces Nihaarika on the entire idea having an undying rule over the kapoor empire(both for herself and her children) , as controlling a naive, middle class girl would be a lot easy, than controlling a rich up-market, street smart girl.
