After making some popular saas-bahu fiction shows, Ekta Kapoor has moved on to real life stories.
She has made a conscious move from the ostentatious drawing rooms and lavish bungalows to villages, slums and traffic signals. The focus is on real people, even as Ekta gears up for her two prime time shows on Sony TV — Bayttaab Dil Kee Tamanna Hai and Pyaar Ka Bandhan. Both the shows are very different. One is dark, harsh and real. The other has the capacity to tug your heart strings.
There was a time when Ektas shows always had protagonists who were very positive and almost perfect. But this time its the opposite. The protagonist in Bayttaab is far from perfect; in fact she is projected as the first anti-heroine of tellyland. Bayttaabs protagonist is determined to fight all odds to fulfill her dream, says Ekta adding, Its a show that deals with relationships. It is when you life is stuck between survival and reality.
She calls it a modern day Deewar. It can be termed as the story of three sisters who struggle to achieve their goals, but in their own way. This is what will differentiate them from each other. One believes there is no shortcut to success while another believes that there is only a short cut. The story also shows the ambitions of these three sisters and their journey for the same, she says.
In the case of Pyaar Ka Bandhan, theres a mix of emotions and drama. Its the story of a mother who is ill and has her four kids adopted by different families. This show can be termed as a retro type for Balaji, which is a mixture of films like Waqt and Yaadon Ki Baarat, says Ekta.
Bayttaab... goes on air on October 6 while Pyaar Ka Bandhan starts on October 7.
