Diya Aur Baati Hum, Sandhya
Mumbai, October 29: Two years, over 500 riveting episodes and the struggle continued for the protagonist of Diya Aur Baati Hum, Sandhya. A strong icon and role model for the women of the country, Sandhya has won many hearts through the journey of the popular TV show. Women everywhere relate with her dilemma – of being torn to pursue a career and fighting the opposition of a family, namely her mother-in-law Bhabho that opposed her dream. But this week things are about to change. Star Plus’ No. 1 show, Diya Aur Baati Hum, is going through a game-changing track – Bhabho finally giving Sandhya permission to pursue her dream of becoming an IPS officer!
The show has beautifully encapsulated Sandhya’s journey so far; she got married young to a man, Sooraj, who she didn’t know and to a family that didn’t allow her to study further. Sooraj, who is a simple man, runs a sweet shop, and didn’t know about her dreams of wanting to be an IPS officer. But the journey of the couple has been most humbling – where Sandhya has helped Sooraj realise his dream of being the World’s Top Cook in Singapore and Sooraj’s support has become Sandhya’s strength over time. Together, they have shaken up the usual norm to achieve more and do more with their lives. Despite all odds, Sooraj always stood by Sandhya & it is his faith which has got Bhabho to accept Sandhya’s dream. Theshow is now moving into its next phase with Sandhya’s getting Bhabho’s approval to pursue herIPS dream on a condition that her duties will always be towards her family first.
“From Bhabho’s point of view, she only wanted the best for her son and family therefore was not approving of Sandhya’s’s career so far. However she has realised and agreed to let her daughter in law follow her IPS dream and also manage the house. It isn’t easy for many to alter their ways of thinkingbut with changing timesone must learn to accept and adapt the new. I hope Bhabho’s move inspires many families to support their daughters and daughter in laws.” says actor Neelu Vaghela who plays the character Bhabho.
“Following your dream is never easy like in the case of Sandhya. Obstacles are part of the journey, but you have to be strong to go after what you believe and adapt to changing circumstances. It’s a great moment for us in the show with Sandhya starting a new journey that will hopefully encourage many women like her to step out.,” says Deepika Singh aka Sandhya.
Diya Aur Baati Hum is going to take an exciting turn ahead and breathe a whole new life. Will things be as smooth for Sandhya from now on, or is this just the beginning of her struggle to achieve her dream? Will she find it difficult to fulfil both roles of being a good wife and daughter-in-law while pursuing a career that is demanding?
