Same old storylines...

Apart from, Zindagi Gulzar hai, Aik Nayee Cinderella, Tanhaiyan and Kahi un Kahi, , if you look at the past 2-3 years, you would find the same formula being repeated over and over again .

A Mother wants his Laadla, Naazon pala, Iklota Son to marry her niece or daughter of rich man however the son wants to marry someone else. And after the marriage the story gets focused to saas ka zulm and baho ki khamoshi.

Two Sisters/Two friends, one of them is not so good looking but very mature and sober, the other one is the patakha kind with everything a man could dream of.

The boyfriend the patakha kind, who happens to be very mature and well educated falling for the sober girl and the patakha girl saying “usnay meri Mohabbat par daaka daala hai , Main Uska ghar nahi basne dungi” Type of dialogues.
Haseenain , Malkaayen and Betiyan having Stupid and cheap affair with Mohallay , gali Ka Loafer Larka , Having Meanwhile the father of one of them having affair with the lashkaray wali aunties in the area.

Different breed of *Fathers, One who may be a Molvi or Eemandaar Government officer having three or four Daughters , with a Mother or a Sister constantly reminding him “Kitni Betiyan Paida Hogayin hain , Betiyan Nahi Bojh Hain , bara Bojh” , Or the kind of Fathers who are very strict , Beating Wife and Slapping or Taunting Daughters are their Favorite Hobbies

An elder daughter who is not getting married because she has to look after her family.

Re: Same old storylines…

:hmmm: as i have said earlier and will say it again that the reason the same old stories come out is because our mango people “AAM AWAAM” wants to see them :meeno: again and again!!!

Re: Same old storylines…

The stories are all so similar but I still watch loads of dramas.:clown:
yeah it’s usually either :

  1. evil behen kahani
  2. evil saas doing zulm on poor daughter in law.
  3. son/ daughter in love with someone else. parents get forced marriage to cousin.
  4. no rishtas are coming for daughter ( due to some situation ) parents get her married to an old man who is really bad.
