They rule the telly screens and occupy the minds of viewers. As the traditional salwar kameez and sari clad women, they become the care takers of their families and become the force that holds the family together. They’re strong, courageous, docile, meek, loving and in many cases unreal! Yes, we’re talking about the Indian bahu portrayed by famous actresses on the small screen!
Giaa Manek became a household name as Gopi Bahu in Star Plus’ Saath Nibhana Saathiya. But what made her famous overnight is when she quit the show to join a rival channel’s popular dance reality show. Giaa went public with her statements where she said that her previous employer was trying to clip her wings!
She’s the most loved and popular bahu of the small screen. Pratyusha Banerjee as the older Anandi had a tough task before her as she stepped into Avika Gor’s shoes who played the young Anandi. But she did a brilliant job, making Balika Vadhu one of the most loved shows on television.
Ankita Lokhande as Archana plays not only the perfect daughter and mother, but also the perfect bahu who is respectful, obedient and family oriented. Ankita Lokhande and partner Sushant Singh’s love story also blossomed on the sets of Pavitra Rishta.
She is the courageous bahu of television who had no choice but to take things into her own hands when her husband left her for the other woman. An obedient Mona is more like a daughter than a bahu for her in-laws on the show Kya Huaa Tera Vaada, complying to her in-law’s every wish and being the doting mother, friend and daughter in law who loves her in-laws perhaps a little more than she loves her own parents!
Pooja Gor as Pratigya in Mann Kee Awaaz Pratigya catapulted to fame with the show’s launch. She’s also the perfect bahu who sets the example for all in her family. She’s the typical north Indian bahu who stands for justice always! She believes that education is the only way to life and every person should walk the path of non violence.
As the cute Akshara in Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, Hina Khan tasted success as her show always rates high on the TRP charts. The beautiful actress had other ambitions before she chose acting as a profession. But it seemed to work for her because viewers have embraced her character with love and she’s the one bahu people love to adore!
As Aarti / Arpita in Zee TV’s second most popular show, Punar Vivah, Kratika Sengar is a docile and homely bahu but at the same time emanates strength and courage and tries to woo her husband with love.
She’s perhaps the meekest bahu on television and she’s ever obedient. Yes, we’re talking about Deepika Samson who plays Simar in Colors TV’s Sasural Simar Ka. She’s the bahu who keeps her family’s name intact, protecting each and every member and agreeing to mata ji’s every wish. Only if bahus like her existed in real life!
She was the cute and concerned bahu of the Chaturvedi family in SONY Entertainment Television’s Saas Bina Sasural. Aishwarya Sakhuja as Toasty played peace maker between the brothers and father in law. As the only bahu of the household (initially) she brought her womanly charm to the house, making her an instant hit with audiences! Unfortunately, with her illness came he ending of a much loved show!
Deepika Singh as Sandhya has proved her mettle in Star Plus’ Diya Aur Baati Hum. As she makes her entry in the show, she faces opposition from her mother in law and even has her differences with her husband Sooraj and manages to win both over. She is educated and dreams big of becoming an IPS officer one day! Sandhya’s fighting spirit keeps her going and she cherishes her dream in her heart!
