/Ek Ghar Banaunga\
*Story*
Over time, the values, traditions and the way of life in society have
changed. In today's day and age, a small family has become the accepted
norm. But this norm of a small and happy family with no more than two
children has also raised some serious questions. Post marriage, girl is
expected to leave her parental home and take care of her in-laws. In
such a scenario what happens to parents who have no son? Should such
parents spend the last years of their lives in an old age home or should
they live a helpless life when they need help the most? Addressing this
issue in our society is this subject of our show, Ek Ghar Banaunga.
The protagonist of the story, Poonam is faced with the dilemma of how to
provide for her parents when she is not around and her only brother is
in the U.S. As luck would have it, a solution arises when she is
helpless. Her parents are left alone to cope with their situation when
her husband, our male protagonist Aakash sees her concern and decides to
bring her parents' home. The problem starts when both parents and the
in-laws of the protagonists start staying together. Will this
arrangement be smooth for everyone or will it lead to souring of
relationships, brewing of troubles and questioning by society. Ek Ghar
Banaunga elaborates on this very topic.
