Sasural Genda Phool going off air on starplus soon
Sasural Genda Phool is a TV show that premiered on March 1, 2010 and is on Star Plus. It falls into the category of a soap opera, romantic comedy and a drama. Sasural Genda Phool is set in the colourful alleys of Old Delhi. The aesthetic portrayal of Purani Dilli is the unique selling proposition of the show. It is a remake of a popular Bengali show Ogo Bodhu Shundori which airs on Star Jalsha. Sasural Genda PhoolTV Asia. is currently re-airing on


The title of the drama is inspired by the song "Genda Phool" from the film Delhi 6, which is also the show's theme song. The show has done very good and managed to get up to 500+ episodes and has got 2.8 trps.
Set in the beautiful alleys of Old Delhi, Sasural Genda Phool is a heart-rending story of two unlikely characters – Suhana and Ishaan. It is a love story of two strangers who fall in love after marriage.
Suhana is the lovely, spirited daughter of Kamal Kumar Bajpai. She hails from a palatial house with a plethora of servants to service her cravings. Having lost her mother at a very young age, she grows up as a very lonely person. Despite his best efforts, Kamal Kumar Bajpai is not able to give his daughter enough time. Denied a mother’s love and a father’s attention, Suhana has grown up to have a legendary temper - but equally legendary is her kindness. Everyone who has seen her grow up – her family, her servants and her friends – know her to be an honest, upright person, never shying away from calling a spade a spade. Unfortunately, Suhana loses in that most important game of all, love. In a flick of instinctive defiance, she agrees to marry whoever her father decides is a suitable groom.
Ishaan, on the other hand, is a gentle, good natured IT professional. Surprisingly for a person whose career is on the rise, he does not have a girlfriend. He asks his family members to look for a bride for him. As one girl after another rejects him, he gives up and decides that he will marry whosoever they decide is a proper match for him. They decide on Suhana. Thus, Suhana and Ishaan are wed.
The marriage, however, starts on a disastrous note. Suhana, who is raw from a recent break up, makes it clear to Ishaan that she is not in love with him. Epitomising the nice guy that he is, he decides to give her time for her wounds to heal. And then, something happens to Suhana. Call it the power of the marriage vows or the ritual of living under the same roof, magic happens. It starts with inconsequential things - choosing a shirt for him, packing his tiffin or personally picking the flowers Ishaan likes best. Suhana slowly begins to discover her husband. Each new day, she discovers a new facet of her husband. Each new day makes Ishaan more endearing to Suhana. And before she knows it, she has fallen in love with him – a love which is deep and solid; a love that will truly stand the test of time.
But Sasural Genda Phool is not only about Suhana’s discovery of love, it is also about her discovery of a family. Unlike Suhana, Ishaan comes from a large joint family. Individuals in this family subordinate their selfish desires for needs of the common good. It is in this family that Suhana discovers the true wealth of living – she gains the love of a mother, of a Dadima, of Chachas and Chachis and of Brothers and Sisters she never had. She learns to never make a distinction between rich and poor, between the intelligent and the not-so-intelligent – to be equal to all and never to be judgmental.
The family Suhana weds into is where the major drama and emotion of Sasural Genda Phool takes place. This affable family is located in the heart of Old Delhi, a place where the mohalla lives by the motto 'one for all and all for one'. It is a place where the women of the household bond, not just with themselves, but with the entire neighbourhood. For a girl who has spent all her life closeted in privacy, Suhana will evolve from her initial culture shock to understanding the importance of the smaller things in life. The audience of the soap will revel in the aesthetic portrayal of Purani Dilli.
The story itself will unfold in the style of a Hrishikesh Mukherjee film – laced with warmth, kindness and humour – where the human soul comes out shining brightly as a true winner.
It is in the angans and gallis of this beautiful city that Suhana will discover family, love and life.

While he loves both his daughters unconditionally, he usually holds Suhana at fault when there are issues concerning her at the Kashyap house feeling that she doesn't have the tact or responsibility she needs. He wants his daughter to realize the difference in living with the people you love, as opposed to living For them.
