A New trend on TV!!! Pets on TV Soaps to add freshness to the Story.
Do you remember the real hero of classic Hum Aapke Hain Kaun - the sweet little pup named Tuffy? I just adored him and wondered if any such cuties will appear on our idiot box as well. Guess the thoughts knocked some minds and amidst the iconic Saas-Bahu saga and hate-love-hate equations; it is a refreshing break to have new members joining us at prime time. We are not talking about some animal planet type shows or shows for children. We are talking about our very own dailies.
It never felt out of league when Naksh demanded for a pet dog. His family, just like many of ours, had their reservations for the same. But than no reservations could stand tall when charming Puchki Goldy entered the sets of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai.
Even Kokila ben of Saath Nibhana Saathiya had to bow down to accept cutie pups Champin her house. Rashi became proud mother of these puppies. They could sense the upcoming danger and warned Rashi to save Meera from it. Though their onscreen presence was fleeting, yet their cameo had added a new vibrancy in the tale.
If Champ can sense danger, Chiku from the show Anamika can sense paranormal activities more easily than the rest of the crew on the show. He is the real superstar of the show…. Ooops …..I mean the super dog of the show. This cuddly black dog gets enough footage onscreen to keep the viewers glued to their screens.
Sheru track in Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah not just added another comedy tadka in the track but was also propitious for the show. With this track the TRP of the show surged landing it in top 3 show slots. Sheru became a family member of evergreen Gokuldham society, so much so that the family did not even hesitate in declaring prize money for their lost dog.
And last but not the least; it is raining dogs on the sets of Chhanchhan. Be it dhyan mein magnn Dhyanchand, cadenced Anarkali, royal Jahapana or the cutest of the lotPuchpuch…..Oh man … the team indeed did an outstanding job in their selection. We hear that the casting of the show got delayed because of the stretched out dog auditions.
The producer claims that two of the canines can actually even cry. Who the hell wants to see them crying? We toh love them for bringing in fun n frolic in the scenes by stirring up fights between Chhanchhan and the male lead of the show. Right readers?
Any successful formula soon becomes a trend in our TV industry. Guess now it's time for pet tales on the shows. They not only bring in a new kind of relationship in the existing equations but are proving healthy for the TRPs. Let's wait for the next new pet on our TV.
