Another Bengali serial is set to bite the dust before Durga Puja this year. A popular Bengali television channel is gearing up to conclude a prime time TV serial at the end of September. This time, it’s Rezwan Rabbani Sheikh and Jyotirmoyee Kundu starrer ‘Bodhua’ that’s wrapping up. The Bengali TV serial that started its journey earlier this year is only 6 months old. However, the rating of the serial hasn’t been promising and that reportedly is the reason behind the show’s conclusion.
‘Bodhua’ began with a story that delved into the struggles of Pekham, a modern, independent woman with a daunting past.She dealt with complex emotions, hiding her pain from those close to her. Pekham faced immense challenges as her inner struggles took centre stage and she preferred to live discretely with her parents, away from the crowd. On the other hand, Abir, who was deeply, madly and unconditionally in love with Pekham, lived in a close-knit big fat joint family.
After their marriage, Pekham found it extremely difficult to come close to her husband Abir and confide in him or even have a normal conjugal life. While Abir didn’t understand the reason for such a dilemma, he promised to stand by her as a steadfast source of strength and love. He tried to bridge the emotional gap between them with his unwavering support for Pekham.
‘Bodhua’ also posed a few compelling questions which included Pekham’s capability to be able to break her shackles and confide in her husband Abir. The storyline of the show charted the course where Abir was seen practising acceptance for Pekham and her past trauma and continuing loving her.
Although ‘Bodhua’ began with a promising storyline, the show failed to pull in the audience and keep up with a consistent rating. After a run for 6 months, the Bengali serial is set to go off-air. Newbie Jyotirmoyee Kundu played the character of Pekham and Abir was played by Rezwan Rabbani Sheikh.
