A new series, Gangaa, will be premiering on
Zee World this October. It starts a day after Begusarai ends on October
18.
The story of Gangaa also known as Sagar
Ki Gangaa is an inspirational story
about a young girl named "Gangaa" who becomes a widow on the same day
as her marriage when her husband and her father, with whom she was very close,
are killed in a riot on the bank of river Ganges in Varanasi.
The show follows young Gangaa’s struggle for her
right to live happily, opposing all the restrictions placed upon widows by
society as she is blamed for the death of her husband whom she never met or
knew, despite being at an age where she didn't know the meaning of marriage.
However, she is adopted by Lawyer Niranjan Chaturvedi and his wife Madhvi who
soon treat her like their own daughter and like their two other kids, Pulkit
the elder one and Sagar, the youngest one, despite the objection of Niranjan's
mother, Ammaji.
However Gangaa was raised by Ammaji who
treated her like a widowed servant who although know that she is not only a
widow but also a child. Gangaa was taught all the rules and ways that a widow
should live like much to her dislike. But she still loved Ammaji and never
refused her.
The story develops on Ganga and Sagar's childhood
friendship where he always stands by her side. One day, Sagar had to apply
vermillion on Gangaa's forehead so as to save his life as told by Ammaji as
Sagar had a hole in his heart. However Sagar and Ganga are separated as Sagar
moves to London to study in a boarding school. This was planned by Madhvi and
Ammaji as they thought that Sagar would be away from them if he continued
living with Gangaa. Gangaa believed that she is only Sagar ki Gangaa (Sagar's
bride and the true love of his heart.)
But the question is, for how long will she wait for
Sagar? Will he ever return to her?
In 2015, the show won the award for Best
Programme with a Social Message at the Indian Telly Awards, as well as a Best
Child Actress award for Ruhana
Khanna as young Gangaa.
