Whenever Sajan falls in doubt by Kashmira, Kashmira’s Dadi’s spirit haunts Sajan. It results in Sajan and mummy ji hiding in the bathroom, while Dadi catches Bhupesh and beats him to pulp.
Back in office, Sajan starts daydreaming about Sanjana the moment he gets free time or she comes across him. Sajan and Sanjana’s office scenes get funny as he misunderstands her words mostly. Sanjana’s intentions are not like Sajan interprets. Sanjana’s father was a peon Chedi lal earlier in same office, and then his past is known. Chedi lal has won a lottery and bought this company.. then Chedi lal converted into the boss Mr. Hiteshi. The role swapping of peon Chedi lal and boss Hiteshi is comical and seen a lot of times. Later on, Sajan falls in trouble during a meeting where Sajan works for lipstick ad campaign. He gives an idea to Sanjana. She improvises it and to make it practical, she applies her lipstick mark on Sajan’s shirt.
Sajan gets hugely worried thinking Kashmira’s Dadi will beat him up. He calls his friend Khiloni and asks for a new shirt. Sajan covers up the shirt matter for sometime. Sanjana calls him up and asks for the marked shirt again. Sajan gets to know Khiloni has thrown it in neighbor’s house and a series of funny scenes begin. Neighbors Raj Kishore Bhaiya and Kanchan Bhabhi ji get into the frame. While Sajan goes to Raj Kishore’s house and comes back, Kashmira’s Dadi catches him coming home late at night.
Sajan climbs a pole seeing Dadi and runs to hide in bathroom, along with his mother in law. Sajan and mummy ji have arguments in bathroom. Bhupesh gets beaten by Dadi again and blames Sajan’s wrong activities for his state. Sajan stops Raj Kishore from telling Kashmira about the shirt. Raj Kishore returns the shirt to Sajan just before the meeting and saves Sajan at nick of the time. Kashmira sees a tv show against men, where anchor tells about men’s mentality. Anchor tells about knowing men’s loyalty and checking by few tests.
Kashmira follows that show and thinks to test Sajan. Mummy ji suggests Kashmira to ask Sajan about their engagement day. Sajan fails to answer it. Sajan carries Sanjana’s saree at home. Sanjana requested him to pick it from laundry service. Kashmira misunderstands that Sajan got it as gift for her. She tells mummy ji that Sajan very well remembers the anniversary. Kashmira wears the saree and shocks Sajan. Sajan had seen Sanjana’s emotional side for the first time and really wants to return the saree to her. He thinks how to get back saree from Kashmira. Sanjana calls Sajan and asks him to deliver the saree on the same day. Sajan starts lying to Sanjana and falls in the web of lies as Sanjana targets many questions on him. Sajan is stuck again in unavoidable matter. He has to keep Kashmira and Sanjana happy.
Our Take:
As per the show title and tagline, the show concept sticks to the man’s problems at home and hurdles at office. When the person gets a attractive female boss, his work looks simple. The story brings a man’s imaginations which turn funnier and entertaining at times. The show succeeds in expressing what cooks in a man’s mind. The concept is clear and hilarious by the double meaning one liners added. Sandeep is superb as Sajan, while Sapna and Neha too are good in their portrayals. Anup Updhyay as Chedilal/Hiteshi brings a comic delight by swapping in his roles and dialogues. The background songs added on Sanjana’s entry and Sajan’s fantasies add more humor to the scenes. Sajan’s inlaws bring more comic spice to the story. Overall, good character sketches as per the story requirements. Well paced story without any dragging. It is entertaining without any dramatic three times shocker expressions. Actors need a mention to bring more spark in the concept. Well maintained comic timings in the scenes make the show more watchable.
Overall:
One would enjoy the show to take a break from over dramatic saas-bahu and non progressive love stories running across other channels. Life Ok has made a good attempt to introduce comedy serials at prime time slots. For all Sab TV fans and viewers of Bhabhi ji Ghar Pe Hai show, this one is specially tailor made for comic buffs.
