While all her projects are important to her, Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai happens to be the most special. She says that everything from the dialogue to the characters, everything has worked well. “Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai is my favourite serial. Every character in it is humorous, and there’s a family-oriented atmosphere. One character is innocent, while another is smart. Angoori’s dialogues have become iconic, they are like catchphrases now,” she says. Ask her what kind of reactions people give after watching her shows, and she says, “One hospital recommends our serial to every patient. One day, Joy Mukherjeeji’s wife came to my house with a plate, decorated with a Ganesh idol and lamps. I didn’t even recognise her at first. She told me, “I was ill in the hospital, and the doctors were giving me injections, which caused blisters in my mouth. I didn’t even want to take the medicine. Seeing my condition, the doctor turned on the TV and started our serial, Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai. He told me to watch this serial. I watched it for the entire time I was in the hospital, day and night. Some people even told me that in their offices, this serial is playing too. You might not believe this, but the actors of Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai send messages to cancer patients, telling them to get better soon so that they can come to visit us on set.”
She says that fans like to come and visit them on the set too. “Many people have come to visit us on the set. Unlike other shows, we don’t charge anyone for visiting. We invite everyone during lunchtime and offer them lunch with the cast. After visiting the set, people often tell us that they bring happiness to everyone’s faces. People believe that watching our serial brings them peace, relieves their stress, and makes them happy. Our actors send personalized messages to sick people, telling them to get well soon and then come visit us on the set,” she says. The producer also adds that content that makes people happy is their priority. “Our goal is to make people laugh. All of our characters are regular people. Angoori Bhabi’s jewellery consists of traditional Indian earrings, while Gori Ma’am’s jewellery is Western. We also dressed Heeba Nawab (in JiJa Ji Chhat Pe Hai) in a salwar kameez with a signature dupatta.” She adds, “In our serial Bhabi Ji Ghar Par Hai or even in Rajan Shahi’s Anupama, women are portrayed positively. Even ordinary women like Angoori Bhabi and Anupama are encouraged by the men in their lives to start something on their own. Bhabi Ji always tries to do different things, whether it’s dancing or acting, and she is always supported in her endeavours. Himani Shivpuri Ji has been working with us for quite a while. She worked with us on Hum Aapke Hain Woh. Himani Ji is very cute, both in the way she talks and when she gets angry.”
