The plot seems interesting but I hope they don't make it too melodramatic like most Indian TV shows these days. Sumbul is a talented actress though - she deserves better scripts than the usual saas-bahu dramas.

As someone who lost my mother young, I really appreciate shows that portray strong female characters taking care of their families. Hope they handle this sensitive topic with maturity. All the best to Sumbul!

Saw her in Bigg Boss - she came across as very genuine. Glad to see her focusing on acting again rather than reality shows. Indian television needs more fresh faces and stories like this.

The promo looks promising! But I hope they don't drag the story for years like other shows. These days good concepts get ruined by unnecessary track extensions. Fingers crossed 🤞

Mumbai vibe + strong female lead + family drama = perfect recipe for an Indian TV hit. Hope the execution matches the potential. Sumbul has grown so much as an actress since her Imlie days.
