08th June:- What happens when one cannot
differentiate between reel life and real life? What happens when the drama that
unfolds on the television screen also becomes the drama of your life? Caught
in-between reality and fiction is television serial producer and protagonist
Rajeev Gupta (Karanveer Mehra) in Sony SAB’s new comedy drama TV, Biwi Aur Main. The show will take
the audience through the daily wonders and blunders of the television industry.
Premiering on Tuesday, 13th of
June, every Monday to Friday at 21:30 hours, TV,
Biwi Aur Main will present a fresh perspective on a producer’s
stressful yet amusing life.
The plot revolves around the daily
struggles of a 32-year-old daily soap producer Rajeev Gupta, played by Karan Veer Mehra. Rajeev lives with
his educated, modern and practical wife Priya, played by Shruti Seth. Together, they have a son
Gappu, played by child actor Siddharth
Dubey. Priya strongly dislikes ‘saas-bahu’ dramas and
believes them to be regressive and a waste of time. On the other hand, his mother
played by Madhuri Sanjeev, lives
and breathes television and its daily soaps. She is very proud of her son, whom
she considers a big celebrity and ever-so-often likes to flaunt his photographs
which appear in the tabloids. So immersed is she in the world of
make-belief that she tends to live her life in accordance to the TV shows. In
addition, Rajeev’s mother also enjoys dominating her husband, played by Ashok Lokhande and her
daughter-in-law Priya.
Rajeev is the producer of the popular
TV show ‘Bindiya, Shringar Ek Suhagan Ka’ where the lead character of Bindiya is
played by the on-screen actress, Naina Sharma. The role is essayed by
actor Tanvi Thakkar.
Naina/Bindiya is the typical sanskaari-bahu pretty,
well-maintained, and a melodrama queen! She is India’s favorite bahu and
the ideal daughter-in-law for all eligible bachelors. The male lead of the
daily show is Kushal essayed by Karan
Goddwani and Naina cannot tolerate him. She leaves no opportunity
to make it obvious that he is the replaceable one in the show and not her.
Bindiya’s
greatest fan is Rajeev’s Amma. She watches the show so religiously that she is
convinced of Bindiya being a real person. She and her friends treat her as the
epitome of all daughter-in-laws and very often gives lectures to her real bahu
Priya to behave like her. No matter, how much, Priya tries to make her believe,
that Bindiya’s not a real person, she always discards her opinion by saying,
that she’s obviously jealous of Bindiya. This camaraderie between mom-in-law
and daughter-in-law will leave the audience in splits.

Vyas, Sr. EVP & Head, Channel SAB and MAX cluster of channels,
commented that TV, Biwi Aur Main reveals a very different
perspective of an Indian television producer’s life. It shows the daily
struggles of our protagonist as he manages to juggle between his professional

the comedy genre through our shows. Stealing the real and integrating it into
reel always makes for a multitude of lighter moments.

show is very close to me as in a way it's going to show the life TV producers
