Excited
about the latest venture Ajit Thakur, EVP & GM, Life OK, says, “We at Life OK have offered bold and
innovative content to our viewers. With the launch of AjeebDaastaanHain Ye, we
intend to raise the bar even higher. This show will be one of our biggest
launches since it brings together three powerful forces, Ekta, Sonali and the
story of an extremely strong female protagonist. We are confident the viewers
will enjoy the show as much as we enjoyed making it.The show is definitely
something you should watch for its extremely well defined characters and a
compelling story. It's a journey of a woman from being a content homemaker to displaying the courage to step out and gain financial
independence in order to secure the lives of her loved ones, her children.”
Speaking
about her new project, Ekta Kapoor from Balaji Telefilms says,
“Relatable characters and diverse concepts are two key ingredients of all my
shows. AjeebDaataanHain Ye captures the story of Shobha who becomes a ‘hero’
for her family after she surmounts harshrealities of life. I am looking forward
to my association with Life OK to bring forth this grand venture through an
interesting storyline”
An
elatedSonaliBendre, whose debut
is the talk of the town says, “Initially I was a little sceptical about
taking up a fiction show until Ekta narrated Shobha’s character to me and
I agreed instantly. The strength of the character and how she faces her life
head on is what appealed to me .The fact that instead of being treated like a
doormat she picks up her life and decides to have a fresh start is what
resonated with me. I Hope the audience accepts me in the new role and supports
me in this endeavour.”
AjeebDaastaanHain
Yealso touches upon the secluded issue
of infidelity. It highlights the tryst of a woman who is estranged by her
husband and is made to break out of her inhibitions in quest of finding
