When was balika vadhu started

For me, Anandi is a character who really inspires me. Even then, Anandi continued to inspire me. I think I looked at her as Anandi and not Avika hence I am just excited and there are no negative emotions. With the same set of people involved, I am really looking forward to the new season. Why do you think Balika Vadhu 2 will work? The way of saying the story, and reaching out is quite different.

Also, the way the characters have been built, with a completely new family. This time the show is based out of Gujarat, and hence the audience will be in for a few cultural shocks.

And I had seen the excitement when the show had a rerun on Rishtey and even Colors, during the lockdown. There are so many reasons, and I hope the new season also manages to have the same bonding.

I remember there was a track where I was shot in the head, and it was a Friday episode. People in Nashik stopped eating and were waiting till Monday to find out if Anandi survives.

There were no social media back then but the buzz has always been loud around the show. I think this time it would be easier for the makers to build that attachment. A post shared by Avika Gor avikagor. I would love to. This show has given me everything. I have reached here because of Balika Vadhu. This show means a lot to me, and I also have a soft corner for Colors.

So if an opportunity comes, I would definitely say yes. Over the years, you have worked on the ground with people. Do you think television shows have the power to impact audiences and bring about social change? Honestly, I hope so, and also people need to understand what we are trying to say. They however survive and are put into an orphanage. They are separated when Shivam is arrested for murdering a man who tried to rape Nandini.

The second part is set 15 years after the end of Part 1. Nandini is a physician, driven by a promise to her dying mother to provide medical treatment throughout Rajasthan. She marries medical student Krish Malhotra, who she later learns is the stepson of Kundan. She also finds that the groom she approved for her adoptive sister Sudha is actually Shivam, who has become a gangster.

She reunites with him. Kundan kidnaps her to force her to remarry him, but is killed by the police. In the epilogue, she summarizes her family history from Anandi's childhood to her present in a book titled Balika Vadhu.

Balika Vadhu s premiere had a very low rating of 0. This helped the newly launched channel to gain first position in the TRP chart, breaking the nine-year run of Star Plus.
