Balika vadhu

Balika vadhu The show is set in rural India and portrays, among other prevailing social ills, the practice of child marriage. Basant, the elder son, is a widower.

It features Anandi (Avika Gor), married at age 8 to Jagdish (Avinash Mukherjee). Anandi's schoolteacher Sandhya (Sadiya Siddique) tries to prevent the child marriage but is unsuccessful. Jagdish is the only grandson of Kalyani Devi (Surekha Sikri), the strict conservative matriarch of a traditional Rajasthani family living in the village of Jetsar. Kalyani Devi treats her two daughters in-law and

her grand-daughter-in-law tyrannically. She has two sons, Bhairon (Anup Soni) and Basant (Satyajit Sharma). Gehna (Neha Marda), daughter of parents heavily in debt to Kalyani Devi, is forcibly married to him. Initially, there are many differences between the couple due to the age gap and incompatibility but they have a son named Nandu. Bhairon, the second son, is married to Sumitra (Smita Bansal) and has two children, Jagdish and Suguna (Vibha Anand). Suguna, also a child bride, loses her husband Pratap (Jehangir Vakil) and is made to follow the hard life of a widow at the age of 18. She later marries Shyam (Vikrant Massey) in the face of much social opposition. Suguna's in-laws, Radha (Asmita Sharma) and Madan Singh (Amar Sharma) initially do not accept her but later realize their mistake. Anandi's parents, Bhagwati (Bhairavi Raichura) and Khajan Singh (Chaitanya Adib) earn their living by farming. They often face problems but are always helped by Bhairon.
