Jhilmil Sitaaron Ka Aangan Hoga[1] is an Indian soap opera about a poor boy, Akash, and a rich girl, Angana, who fall in love and get married. Due to family tradition, Akash is forced to be a ghar jamai, or live-in son-in-law in Angana's parents' house, and feels humiliated by it. The title relates to a popular song of the same name sung by Lata Mangeshkar and Mohammed Rafi. The show started on 27 February 2012.

Plot

Kalyani Devi Raichand gets her three daughters married, and their husbands move in with her family instead of taking their wives away to their homes (which is customary in Indian society). When Kalyani and Raghuveer Raichand's youngest daughter, Angana, decides to marry Akash Sharma, Akash bids farewell to his family and becomes a ghar jamai at the Raichands' home. The young couple experiences much adversity, but Akash eventually wins respect from everyone in Angana's family, including the hard-to-please Kalyani.

Just as this conflict is resolved, tragedy strikes: Akash dies, leaving Angana shell-shocked. Soon after, the Raichands come into contact with the Chauhan family and their middle son Saumya. Saumya is a divorcé with two children; the children and Angana take a mutual liking to each other, which makes the Chauhans and the Raichands think that Angana and Saumya would be a perfect match. Under pressure from the two families, Angana and Saumya enter a loveless marriage, and Angana starts living at the Chauhan house. Within a few days, she discovers that she is pregnant with Akash's child. Saumya is shocked, but decides to stand by Angana, accepting the child as his own. But the Chauhan family learns of Angana's pregnancy. During Soumya's brother Tejas's wedding, the family discovers the truth, but they too accept the child as theirs. Love blossoms between Soumya and Angana; just then, Soumya's alcoholic ex-wife, also named Angana (also called Angie) reappears. After learning the truth, Angana brings Angie home. Angie overcomes her addiction, and Charu plots to bring her and Soumya together. However, when Soumya's friend Sameer returns from London, he and Angie fall in love and marry. After a few months, Angana gives birth to a son, Akash.

Reception

Kshama Rao, of The Indian Express, said:

"The show had an interesting premise of daughters staying back at their parents' home while their husbands come to them. It could have been a light-hearted, tongue-in-cheek look at the concept of ghar jamais but then we are talking Barjatyas here, for them to even endorse such a thought is sacrilege. Sigh!"

Awards and nomination

Raghvendra Singh was nominated for the Indian Television Academy Awards (ITA Awards), 2013 in the "best lyrics" category.
