Staying true to its commitment to offering
refreshing and relatable family entertainment, &TV is set to expand its
fiction slate with its new show, Gharwali Pedwali. The show brings together an
exciting star cast featuring Paras Arora as (Jeetu Pandey), Seerat Kapoor as
Savi (Gharwali), and Priyamvada Kant as Latika (Pedwali), along with a talented
ensemble of seasoned actors including Richa Soni (Reeta Pandey), Geeta Bisht
(Geeta Pandey), Harsh Vashisht (Ramesh Pandey), Brij Bhushan Shukla (Suresh Pandey)
and Amitabh Ghanekar (Panoti Mama) in pivotal roles. Produced by Peninsula
Productions, the show will premiere on December 15 at 10:00 PM, airing every
Monday to Friday. A vibrant family entertainer, Gharwali Pedwali blends
slice-of-life humour with a quirky supernatural twist, promising viewers a
joyful, laughter-filled viewing experience.
At the heart of this delightful show is Prithvi
Mishra, fondly known as Jeetu, whose life has always been shaped by unexpected
“twos”, two mothers, two fathers, two bosses, and now, by destiny’s strangest
turn, two wives. What begins as a simple dream of marital bliss with his real
wife, Savi, soon transforms into comic chaos when an astrological hurdle leads
to a symbolic tree marriage. The harmless ritual takes an unforeseen turn when
Latika, a spirited ghost from another era, enters Jeetu’s life believing
herself to be his rightful bride. What follows is a hilarious tug-of-war
between his grounded Gharwali and his whimsical Pedwali, doubling the drama,
doubling the mischief, and doubling the fun.
Set in Varanasi, Gharwali Pedwali presents a unique
world where the warmth of family life meets magical unpredictability. As Jeetu
navigates the daily madness created by his practical, modern Savi and the
playful, old-world Latika, he finds himself caught between love, loyalty, and
supernatural hilarity. Their contrasting personalities bring endless comedic
clashes, unexpected emotional moments, and a daily rollercoaster that keeps the
audience constantly entertained.
Talking about the show, Kaveri Das-Chief Channel
Officer &TV, Business Head - Hindi Z5 says, “At &TV, we strive to
introduce concepts that surprise, entertain, and emotionally connect with our
audiences. ‘Gharwali Pedwali’ is a refreshing and imaginative take on family
comedy. A genre loved across Indian households yet rarely explored in new,
innovative ways. The contrast between a modern, independent young wife and a
spirited ghost bride brings limitless possibilities for humour and storytelling.
The show beautifully captures everyday family emotions while adding a magical
layer that makes it truly distinctive. With its quirky premise, rooted
characters and warmth, we believe the show will bring wholesome joy to our
viewers every night.”
Peninsula Productions adds, “What excited us most
about ‘Gharwali Pedwali’ is its ability to deliver clean, joyful entertainment
with a novel twist. The supernatural element does not merely add humour to it,
it builds emotion, conflict and laughter in ways that feel fresh and
meaningful. Jeetu’s world, divided between two wives from two different realms,
lends itself to endless comedic possibilities while keeping the narrative
heartfelt and relatable. We are grateful to &TV for their belief in such innovative
storytelling, and we are confident that viewers will embrace this show for its
originality, warmth, and sheer entertainment value.”
Talking about his role as Jeetu, Paras Arora says,
“Jeetu is a beautifully relatable character, someone who wants a simple,
peaceful life but always ends up in complicated situations. Playing a man
balancing two wives, one real and one supernatural, is both hilarious and
creatively challenging. What drew me to this role was its innocence and
unpredictability. Comedy as a genre is incredibly rewarding, and this script
instantly connects with me because it offers humour rooted in emotion. I am
excited for viewers to see Jeetu’s confusion, charm and journey as he navigates
this utterly chaotic double life.”
Speaking about her role as Latika, Priyamvada Kant
shares, “My character Latika is the heart of the show dramatic, affectionate,
old-worldly and delightfully mischievous. As a spirit who genuinely believes
Jeetu belongs to her, her emotions and actions drive much of the show’s humour
and warmth. Supernatural comedy is such an unexplored genre on Indian
television, and that’s exactly what drew me to this project. Latika is layered,
expressive and funny, and playing her allows me to blend comedy with emotional
depth. I’m thrilled to return to television with a role this unique.”
Adding about her role as Savi, Seerat Kapoor adds,
“Savi is a vibrant, modern Gen Z girl who believes in love, family and honest
relationships. Her world completely flips when she discovers that her husband
now has a second ‘wife’, who happens to be a ghost! The contrast between Savi’s
contemporary personality and Latika’s old-school charm creates some of the most
humorous and emotional moments in the show. I love Savi’s strength and her
ability to find humour even in the most chaotic situations. This show is unlike
anything I have done before, and I am sure the audience will enjoy this
magical, comedic, and emotional rollercoaster.”
With its refreshing storytelling, endearing
characters, and a delightful blend of realism and fantasy, Gharwali Pedwali’ is
all set to offer viewers a heartfelt, humorous, and thoroughly entertaining
family drama.
