MILONI MOVIEZ Productions new show KHUSHIYON KI GULLAK AASHI is all set to go on air from Monday 1^st September 10pm onwards every Monday to Thursday on new Channel Sony Pal.

Khushiyon Ki Gullak – Aashi is a never-seen-before concept in the history of Indian Television. This feel good show promises to enthral viewers with the story that traces the journey of a simple bubbly and cheerful Aashi (Hally Shah) who adopts new parents in a search of parental love. Naren Kumar and Susheel Pandey of Miloni Moviez recently finished an extensive outdoor schedule at real-locations in Jabalpur capturing the essence of the city and its local flavour. Apart from Ashi (Hally Shah) in the show will be also seen Tv’s popular chocolate boy Naman Shaw,Abhishek Sharma, Rohitash Gaur and Nishigandha Wad are part of this daily being directed by Pratik Shah and written by Bhavna Vyas.

The concept revolves around the life of 22 year old Aashi, a bubbly cheerful girl who spreads happiness but is a lonely within. Aashi always longed for her parent’s attention and love but they on the other hand have been always busy in pursuing their career and work.

Circumstances have made Aashi a little mature and emotional person. She has learnt to take all her decisions on her own at a tender age of twenty. And one of her decision turns out to be so revolutionary that it shakes the very social and belief system of our land. Can a girl adopt a new set of parents when her biological parents have failed to perform their duties and roles? To fulfill her vision- she faces much opposition, but she is not bothered about them, she wants to go ahead and do what she believes in.

Talking about the show producer Naren Kumar said, “Miloni Moviez has always associated with offbeat concepts and exploring new genres and unique story line, Khushiyon Ki Gullak – Aashi is mine and Sushil’s personal conviction that reflects in the show. The positivity that the characters bring forward in the show, the ease and complexity at the same time of Aashi’s character needed a very delicate treatment. When we met Hally things just fell in place & we think it couldn’t have been anybody else who could play Aashi better. Its a multi layered script and will have parallel track on various aspects of Aashi’s life that adds to the excitement. It’s a story of a small town girl, her ambition, compassion, her love life & the refreshing approach towards life that shape the character of Aashi.

Punkaj Challaani's MAMACHYA GAVALA JAAOO YAA gives new perspective to Marathi cinema

Kids these days are born geniuses! The way they handle modern gadgets gives
us a feel that they are IT experts. No wonder they are born in the era of
Information Technology, but the continuous exposure to smart phones,
tablets and computers has only led to many diseases at a very young age.
Even the physical activity of children has greatly reduced due to
technology.
Until some years ago, trips were planned to maternal uncle's place long
before the holidays arrived. There was a different fun which the age-old
song rightly said 'JAAOO... MAMACHYA GAVALA JAAOO' (Let's go to maternal
uncle's place). But these days, kids seem to have forgotten the song. In
addition to this, nuclear family systems have resulted in kids being
distant from their grandparents and thus missing out the important things
required for their upbringing. Parents engrossed in corporate lifestyle
hardly spend quality time with their children, thereby creating gaps in
relationships. So to close the widening gap between relationships and to
again bring people close to nature, Pune based Punkaj Challaani thought of
producing MAMACHYA GAVALA JAAOO YAA.
Punkaj hails from the finance background. But the sheer love of the Marathi
language and interest towards cinema encouraged him to produce Marathi
films. Having earlier co-produced DHAGEDORE, he had the confidence and thus
he decided to produce MAMACHYA GAVALA JAAOO YAA as an independent producer.
"Love, hatred and revenge are the orthodox factors on which majority of
Marathi films are based. The audience is bored of watching such oft
repeated content. But when writer-director Sameer Joshi came to me with the
script of MAMACHYA GAVALA JAAOO YAA, I immediately said yes. There were two
reasons why this film touched my heart. One, the film has the content which
is a complete family entertainer and two; the film revolves around the
emotional world of kids. I was confident that I could give an all-round
entertainment to the viewers," opines Punkaj Challaani.
Marathi Family Entertainment Film set in forest by Punkaj Challaani,
MAMACHYA GAVALA JAAOO YAA is shot in a Satara jungle near Pune for 30 days
and will also see Abhijeet Khandkekar and Mrunmayee Deshpande in pivotal
roles. The film is being distributed by Pickle Entertainment all across
Maharashtra.
