Sarabhai Vs. Sarabhai

at a time when watching a hindi general entertainment channnel is nothing short of pure torture, there are a few programmes that are like a whiff of fresh air. one of them is the comedy on the star one channel named Sarabhai Vs. Sarabhai. it is surprisingly witty without any hint of crudity in it.
story is good, plot is well executed coupled with great acting by satish shah and ratna pathak that manages to get the laughs out of us.
the plot line is basically influenced from a comedy called Dharma and Greg that played on star world a few years back though the operationalization is purely indian. it is about a gujarati family of husband and wife played by satish shah and ratna pathak, they have two sons one of them is a doctor and the younger one is a spoilt mommas boy, a lovable oaf that takes a great delight in torturing his family with silly poems except his doting mother of course.
the mother is a snobbish upper middle class women and the trouble starts when her elder son falls in love with a lower middle class punjaabi girl and brings her home. it is really a laugh riot.
star one incidently when it started came up with really good youth oriented programmes. remix, nach baliye, laughter challenge and sarabhais were good programmes. now it is falling into a rut too..
