Two new shows on Aakash Aath, Modhur Hawa and Bou Churi in Sahityer Shera Shomoy, are inspired from the works of renowned Bengali authors, Pracheto Gupta and Prabhat Kumar Gupta, respectively.

Modhur Hawa tells the story of Sanyal family where four generations live together under the same roof. Niharanjan Sanyal, a school teacher and an ardent fan of the actress Kanan Devi lives in the nostalgia of his era, worshipping her beauty and creativity skills. On the other hand, through the characters of Niharanjan Babu’s wife, her children and their third generation, one witnesses the bittersweet chemistry of a family where there’s joy, sorrow, conflict and the painful picture of the changing dynamics of family relationships due to the generation gap and today’s tech-savvy social lifestyle.

Modhur Hawa is an engaging family drama with romance and humour whereas Bou Churi is a romantic comedy which revolves around the lives of three young people. We are hopeful that the audience will enjoy both the stories,” said Priyanka Bardia, director, Aakash Aath.

“The show Modhur Hawa is undoubtedly going to create a different appeal amongst the viewers. The romantic yet jovial bonding of Kiranmoyee and Niharanjan will make the audience watch the mega with enthusiasm and interest. Every character in this show will reveal the realities of a common man’s family, and society. The story is full of comedy, romance and interesting twists and turns,” said the actors Arijit Guha and Gopa Nandi, the lead cast of the mega serial, Modhur Hawa.

Modhur Hawa, directed by Anindya Sarkar, features the actors, Arijit Guha, Gopa Nandi, Subhasish Banerjee, Mousumi Chakbraborty, Subhojit Banerjee, Shatabdi Nag, Swarup Dey, Shreyoshi Biswas, Pritam Das, Aarna Dhar, Sabuj Bardhan, Jayitri Banerjee, Shekhar Pal, Saikat Das, Riya Das, Ayshree Mukherjee, David Mitra and Montu Das in the lead roles.

The three main characters of Bou Churi are Mandakini, Anath and Indubala. The story revolves around a young bride who finds herself entangled in a web of deception and intrigue. As the story unfolds, the viewers will see that true love wins over every impediment.

“The story of Bou Churi actually reflects the era when our society and the individuals residing in it were yet to undergo the biggest evolution of modernism and development. Reviving a picture of that particular period on the television screen is a daunting challenge for the director as well as the actors who are an integral part of it. The characters of Indubala and Anath are two contrasting shades of personalities who have different desires from life and the future. It is definitely a privilege for both of us to play an onscreen role influenced from the rich treasure trove of Bengali literature,” said the actors Riaz Laskar and Tanishka Tiwari, the lead cast of Bou Churi.

Bou Churi, directed by Bijoy Jana, features Ayanna Chatterjee, Riaz Laskar, Rajarshi Mukherjee, Bonhi Chakraborty, Tanishka Tiwari, Deepanjali Mukherjee, Keshav Mukherjee, Sangita Ghosh, Ayush Majumdar and Parboni Burman.

Modhur Hawa and Bou Churi air on Aakash Aath, Monday through Saturday, at 7pm and 7.30 pm respectively.
