Was forced to see Humsafar once (The TV remote too was in Wife's hand) and wasn't bad, considering i absolutely loathe soaps.
btw i've would've loved some old Pakistani Comic theater of 80s and 90s from Umer Sharif, real rib ticklers.

Agree with Short is Sweet part Arsalan bhai. The grand old lady Baa in one of longest running Ekta kapoor crap (kyonki Saas bhi kabhi...) perhaps lived for close to 250 years.

WHAT HINDI SERIALS TEACH US
1.FASHION SENSE
It doesnt matter whether its a funeral or some severe mourning scene in a hospital,the GHAR KI BAHU( bride of the house) will be wearing 24 carat thick gold necklaces and heavy saree with kantha embroidery.
2.DESTINY TESTS TRUE LOVE
The college lover of your husband who had gone back to NYC 20 years ago,and had ditched your husband for unknown reasons,will come back 20 years later only to get her love back,and your marraige will be put to "agni pareeksha" with lots of tabla beats in the background.
3.THE INFIDELITY OF INDIAN MEN
Your husband will definitely have a secret love child,which will be revealed at a later stage in life when your kid and that love child will end up coincidently being classmates.
4.THAT RNA INTERFERENCE IS NOT NEEDED TO STOP AGING
No matter how old your kids grow up,and how old their kids grow up,you will still look the same like you did when you first got married,only with 2 or 3 grey hair in the front of your head.
5.CONCEPTS OF REBIRTH
You shouldn't worry if you lost your husband,in some days he will come back taking a "punar janam"(re-birth).And this time with louder tabla beats playing in the background.
6.MEMORY LOSS CAN BE CURED BY TRUE LOVE
If you love some one too much,in the right time he will lose his memory and wont give you a damn.But if you keep "VISHWAAS IN SACCHA PYAAR"(faith in true love),the whole universe will conspire,and his memory will return.But till then you would already be having another man in your life.More test of true love...to be continued :|
7.HOW TO BE IMMORTAL
That if you want to be immortal,you have to compulsorily be the BAA of the family
8.THAT YOU CAN CHECK IF YOUR "DEVRAANI" IS EVIL
The villain will always make faces and smirk like a bitch while thinking of an evil plan,so that you know she is a villian.But the irony is,you still wont know,cause you are too "adarsh"(ideal) to think of anything so evil about your "APNEY"(own).
