 Favorite on-screen ‘Moms’ of Television

Throughout Indian television's history, it has portrayed some of the most remarkable female characters in various shows, depicting mothers as the embodiment of love, care, compassion, and sacrifice. These small-screen mothers have made a lasting impression on viewers' minds. &TV artists, on this Mother's Day talk about playing different shades of doting mothers onscreen. These include Neha Joshi (Yashoda, Doosri Maa), Kamna Pathak (Rajesh, Happu Ki Ultan Paltan), and Soma Rathod (Amma Ji, Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai). Neha Joshi, aka Yashoda from Doosri Maa, shares, “Doosri Maa is a show that celebrates the incomparable feeling of motherhood. Yashoda, the main character, demonstrates unwavering support for her children through life's challenges. 

Her love for her children transcends blood relations, and she fights against all odds to protect Krishna, her son. Yashoda embodies fierce, nurturing motherhood and will go to great lengths to ensure the safety and wellbeing of her three children: Krishna (Aayudh Bhanushali), Astha (Aadvika Sharma), and Noopur (Anya Galwan). Yashoda treats all her children equally and impartially, instilling good values and fostering a united family. She is an independent, strong-willed woman whose children are her world, making her an exemplary mother.”

 

Kamna Pathak, aka Rajesh Singh from Happu Ki Ultan Paltan, shares, “In my show, I play the role of a mother to nine children, each with their distinct personalities. Whether it's Hritik (Aryan Prajapati), Chamchi (Zaara Warsi), Kate Singh (Gazal Sood), Ranbir (Somya Azad), or Malaika (Sonal Panwar), my love for them is equal, even if I sometimes have to resort to "Pyaar and maar" (laughs). My character Rajesh knows how to keep all her children happy and will do anything to fulfill their wishes. She is the family's pillar, providing strength and support to her children. Rajesh is like the family's police officer, ensuring that everything is under control. Without her, the house would be in chaos. She never tires of performing her motherly duties, making her the perfect supermom. Although she can be strict, setting rules for her family to follow, her primary goal is to keep her children happy.” Soma Rathod, aka Amma Ji from Bhabhiji Ghar Par Hai, shares, “Amma Ji is a joyful, free-spirited, and vibrant individual who commands respect from everyone, including her son Manmohan Tiwari (Rohitashv Gour). She provides unwavering support to her daughter-in-law, Angoori (Shubhangi Atre), always offering sound advice and standing by her side when needed. Her affectionate and supportive nature towards Angoori makes her an exceptional mother and mother-in-law. Interestingly, Amma Ji is probably the only Saasu Maa on Indian television who loves her daughter-in-law more than her son (laughs). Despite her traditional appearance, Amma Ji is a forward-thinking problem-solver, making her an exceptional mother and mother-in-law.”
