Pravishth Mishra says his role in 'Bareilly Ke Bachchan' talks about the 'weird comfort people have with dysfunction'

Actor Pravishth Mishra discusses his character Krishna in the new satirical dramedy Bareilly Ke Bachchan, exploring flawed family dynamics and comfort with dysfunction.

"Krishna represents that weird comfort some of us have with dysfunction. - Pravishth Mishra"

Mumbai, April 18

Colors TV is all set to present their upcoming show Bareilly ake Bachchan.

Actor Pravishth Mishra , who is all set to essay the role of Krishna, spoke on taking up the role.

Pravishth Mishra said, "Krishna represents that weird comfort some of us have with dysfunction. He believes his house is warm, loving, and perfectly normal. That delusion is what makes this a satirical dramedy - his confidence clashes with Sangam's clarity, and that contrast fuels the comedy."

He added, "What he sells as togetherness is a house that has forgotten how to coexist, where unresolved issues have taken over. As audience, you will laugh at him and then realise you have seen this version of normal before."

The show Bareilly Ke Bachchan, whose promo dropped in recently, revolves around how every family is flawed in its own way, and how only a rare few are willing to confront the cracks in their carefully maintained façade.

The show has been set in the bustling lanes of Bareilly, and is a satirical slice-of-life dramedy that looks at what a household turns into when it has lived for years without a woman.

Starring Pravishth Mishra as Krishna, the show promises combustible family dynamics, and comedy that lands because it feels uncomfortably familiar.

The ensemble cast along with Pravishth Mishra, also features Ramneek Kataria as Sangam, Yashpal Sharma as Ajab Singh, Kinshuk Mahajan as Ganga, Ansh Manuja as Satluj, Sachin Jeet Singh as Mahi.

Pravishth's explanation is spot on. The "weird comfort with dysfunction" is a very real thing in our joint families. We laugh at it on screen because we've lived it. Hope the writing does justice to the concept.

Finally, a show that doesn't just show saas-bahu drama or unrealistic romance. A satirical look at family dynamics? Count me in. The cast looks promising too, especially Yashpal Sharma.

As someone who has lived in India for a few years now, the family dynamics described here are fascinating. The idea of a "carefully maintained façade" is universal, but it seems to have a particular flavor in the Indian context. Will watch with my Indian friends!

Respectfully, I hope this isn't just another show that makes fun of small-town families for cheap laughs. The premise is good, but execution is key. Colors TV has a mixed record with such concepts. Fingers crossed they handle the satire with heart and not just mockery.

"A household that has lived for years without a woman" – this is such a specific and interesting setup. It will be great to see how they explore the absence and the resulting dysfunction. More power to slice-of-life shows! 🙌
