20 Daily Soaps Of The 21st Century That Moved The Nation Hindi Article

Hundreds of daily soaps have come and gone from our television screens. Some we followed religiously, some we ignored while some we hoped would go off air soon. Among these were those soaps that gained national and international popularity, and made their place among the best soaps of the century till now. We hope to see their future seasons unlike soaps that have been stretching on and on, so much so that we just wish that its makers would put an end to it. Here we present 20 serials that have engraved their place in our hearts and left us wanting more.

1. Sarabhai Vs Sarabhai

The Sarabhai family very quickly found their way in our living rooms. It was impossible to miss a single episode. Their raw comedy and constant snaps at each other was like a breath of fresh air amidst the constant tears of the tortured daughter-in-law. Perhaps that is why, when the news broke that there may be a possible second season of the show, the entire country waited in eagerness. However, now it has been confirmed that it will be a web series rather than another season.

With various new concepts like stage comedy, involvement of the audience, and so on merged together, the show soon became a national favorite. However, it was not as good as the next show on this list.

4. The Kapil Sharma Show

If there was anyone who benefitted exceedingly from Kapil’s feud with his channel associates, it was Sony TV. The new show had better concept, more characters, and more comedy. We might as well say that ‘Comedy Night With Kapil’ was going downhill, but this show gave Kapil the stardom that he was close to losing.

If for a minute we ignore the grandeur of the show, the many new aspects of Ramayana that it is bringing forward to us and the perfect star cast, I still cannot ignore what is the true gist of this show. This is Ramayana, for the very first time, is presented from Sita’s point of view. She is not a meek, surrendering victim, she is fearless, curious woman who has been brought up with love and freedom and whose love is her God, and her God is her love, which gives her the courage to believe in the power of Dharma.

There have been accusations stating that all the money that is donated to the show is actually going towards promoting terrorism. But we can be sure that they are false, because the organisations that feature on the show are real organisations that have been fighting against injustice long before ‘ Aamir Khan Aamir Khan or Mohammed Aamir Hussain Khan is Bolly >> Read More... ’s team promoted them on their show. The issues they show are those that are eating up our society like termites and the least we can do is appreciate them.

9. Kuch Rang Pyar Ke Aise Bhi

The show has blatantly presented to Indian audience the Oedipus complex between a mother and her son in its most extreme form. The mother commits suicide as soon as she feels her son is being snatched away from her, and then the obvious happens, the son must let go of his love. Although the show has not yet been on air for long, the popularity of the actors and the ease with which the audience can relate to it is a testimony to how far the show can go.

In Indian society, everyone talks about how women should be empowered, how they should fulfill their aspirations, but most women just end up becoming housewives and mothers. In Dhara, we met a woman who not only dared to fulfill her dreams, but also take the huge step of leaving a husband who did not respect her and her goals.

11. Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon

A huge reason why the show still enjoys so much popularity is that it did not stretch on like other daily soaps. It came, garnered the love of its audience and left them wanting more. The storyline was not very unique, but its portrayal was. The writers took great caution to make sure that the audience loved the characters and the characters tried their best to return the love of their audience. Perhaps that is why, the actors like Barun Sobti Barun Sobti is a Commercial Model, Film and TV act >> Read More... and Sanaya Irani Sanaya Irani is an Indian actress who majorly acts >> Read More... are loved most for this show.

12. Bhabi Ji Ghar Par Hai

Another show that enjoys high viewership, hugely because it is relatable.

When this show was running, it did not have fans, it had devotees. And these devotees acted as though it was a crime to not watch is show. In their defence, the lead pair did have sizzling chemistry, and the show, with all the romance and drama, always kept its viewers at the edge of their seats. Moreover, the show was just the perfect length, which left scope for a second season, albeit it followed a different track.
