Mature love stories, divorces, remarriages — the small-screen has been dealing

with all these hitherto taboo topics for the

last two years. The latest issue to catch

the fancy of makers is the battle for child

custody between warring partners. Punar

Vivaah on Zee has protagonist Aarti's ex-husband

Prashant fighting for the

custody of his son Ansh.

In Bade Acche Laggte Hai

(Sony), Ram and Priya are having a tug-ofwar over who will take care of their daughter Pihu and in Parichay, Siddhi and Abhay

have been at loggerheads over the custody

of their twin boys.

Prashant Bhatt, weekday programming

Head, Colors says that it's a reflection of

the real world. "It's not just the theme of

child custody gaining importance on television, this is happening all around us. TV is

only a medium to relay the story. We are trying to highlight real life situations through

our shows like Parichay. There are many

homes where parents have separated and

are fighting for custody of their children.

We want to highlight the state of the child

trapped between feuding adults. Viewers connect easily with children and that

helps build context." Sumeet Mittal who is

producing Punar Vivaah and has just shot

a melodramatic court scene avers, "We

are dealing with a socially relevant subject

where this kind of marital disharmony is

common, specially if a child is involved

in a broken marriage. We are trying

to convey a message that children's

emotional stability is most important and they must not be traumatised."

Pyschologist Seema Hingoranny is all for television creating

awareness about sensitive issues.

"The medium is picking up what I call lifestyle issues that audiences can relate to. It

is good to the point of raising awareness

but in most cases it becomes melodramatic.

The negativity and mud-slinging between

the protagonists can send a wrong message

because viewers look at them as role models," she warns.

However, Vivek Bahl, Chief Creative Director, Sony, assures that while the aim is

to reflect society, "the effort is to underline

hope, learning and positivity through the

same." We hope so too!

Its a wonderful concept that they are picking up n highlighting. Reality is shown in a good wat but showing a woman striking deals to save her husband kids is some thing which sounds absurd where the society gives her a name of mistress n characterless no mater what just for the drama quotient no one has got right to show women so cheap n men playing with their emotions

we men emerge from women we r nothing without. Them In our childhood as a mother.sister, later as a wife friend guide ...woman play many roles in a mans life

such a high dignity gender portrayal should always fighting n winning or if failing to win her man should be shown supportive...but should not be showing th striking deals becoming. Sacrificing lambs

The role a man plays in a mans life... Is respectable n remarkable and man plays a role of womans life in reality

makers should realize the sensitivity of the tracks which they come up keeping in mind that their shows will have a remarkable impact in the viewers

fans at times gets obsessed with their celebrity and go head over heels they want what they wanna see they can't take anything against their fav stars some drool mire than needed these are personal perceptions and in their obsession they go to extent of insulting and hurting others badly... I have seen this in another forum which I followed... In that aspect balh forum is a very friendly one m sweet took

chaya thanks for the article and tanu thanks for posting...
