Saath Nibhaana Saathiya (transl. Stand by Me, Partner) is an Indian Hindi-language television series produced by Rashmi Sharma under Rashmi Sharma Telefilms.[4] It premiered on 3 May 2010 on Star Plus and became one of the longest running television series in India.[5] The series starred Giaa Manek (later replaced by Devoleena Bhattacharjee), Rucha Hasabnis, Rupal Patel, Mohammad Nazim, Vishal Singh, Loveleen Kaur Sasan respectively.[6]

The series filmed the Modi family, exploring morals and values of a typical Gujarati joint family. Initially, it focused on cousins Gopi and Rashi and their life in Modi Mansion after marrying Modis' sons Ahem and Jigar, respectively. After a leap, the series focused on Gopi's daughters, Meera and Vidya. Further leap focused on Ramakanth, Gopi's son and Sita.[7] The storyline constantly skips forward in time: a year in June 2013,[8] eight years in February 2014,[9] ten years in February 2015,[10] four years in May 2016,[11] and three months in March 2017. The series ended on 23 July 2017, completing 2,181 episodes.[12][13]

The second season of the series, Saath Nibhaana Saathiya 2, premiered on 19 October 2020 on Star Plus starring cameo celebrities Devoleena Bhattacharjee, Rupal Patel, Mohammad Nazim, as well as Sneha Jain and Harsh Nagar (later replaced by Gautam Singh Vig) as protagonists.[14]

Plot

Gopi is an orphan who lives with her aunt Urmila Shah, uncle Jeetu Shah, and cousin Rashi. Kokila Modi decides to get her son Ahem Modi married to Gopi. Urmila and Rashi plot to get Rashi married to Jigar. Soon Ahem-Gopi and Jigar-Rashi get married. Kokila trains and supports Gopi to become self-confident and educated. Ahem's sister Kinjal is married to Urmila's nephew, Dhaval Desai. Rashi often tries to create trouble for Gopi but later regrets, while Ahem, who initially berates Gopi for her illiteracy, later realizes her worth, and rejects his girlfriend, Anita. Soon, Gopi has a daughter, Meera, while Rashi has twin sons, Sahir and Samar. Gopi's long-lost parents, Madhu and Jayantilal reunite with Gopi's sister Radha. Radha marries Kinjal's ex-boyfriend, Umang Mehta, whose first wife Tripti murders him. Tripti blames Gopi for Umang's death which Radha believes. However, Kokila works together with Gopi and Rashi to find out the truth and later reveals Umang and Tripti's intentions to Radha, thus, sentencing Tripti to eight years of imprisonment. Gopi finds out she is pregnant again. Yet again, Tripti brainwashes Radha against Gopi. When the family is out for a picnic, Radha schemes an accident to kill Meera which results in Gopi accidentally slipping and throwing baby Meera in the river. Kokila holds Gopi responsible for Meera's death and a guilty Gopi leaves the Modi house.

8 years later

Gopi raises her second daughter, Vidya, single-handedly. Kokila decides to get Ahem married to Radha. On the day of the marriage, Rashi finds Gopi and with the help of Samar, Sahir, Pappu, and Vidya, they make a plan to remarry Ahem and Gopi and are successful in doing so. Gopi reveals to the family that Vidya is their daughter. Kokila finds out that Meera is alive and was ill-treated by Radha and made to grow up as an orphan in a temple. Kokila decides to expose them but Tripti causes her accident which leads to her losing her partial memory. Gopi and Ahem bring a girl Gauri to the house who turns out to be Meera. Kokila regains her memory and the whole family is reunited after Radha's crimes are revealed, and she is sent to jail along with Tripti for trying to kill her and Meera.

Rashi's maternal cousin, Paridhi, enters the Modi house. Rashi sacrifices her life to save Gopi from the latter's obsessed colleague, Anurag Joshi. Jigar goes into depression due to Rashi's demise. He marries Paridhi after being forced by his family. Radha returns and tricks Jigar into sleeping with her and gets pregnant. She delivers a daughter who is named after Rashi and threatens the Modis to kill her. Realizing that Radha will never reform, Gopi stabs her with a trishul repeatedly to save Rashi, killing her. She is then sentenced to 14 years of imprisonment.

10 years later

Gopi is released from jail after a reduction of 4 years in her sentence and is shocked to learn that Kokila does not live in the Modi house anymore and is a maid at a fakely-mentally-ill Urmila's house. Paridhi refuses to foster Rashi and does not let her stay at the Modi House. Ahem has broken all ties with the Modis and lives with Meera, Vidya, and a woman, Mansi Raheja (caretaker of Meera and Vidya) in Bandra, Mumbai. He runs a bakery shop called MV (after Meera-Vidya). Kinjal separates from Dhaval and lives at Modi's house after an argument which causes Urmila's fake memory loss. Gopi's mother Madhu escapes after failing to take Rashi Jr. with her.

Gopi, Jigar, and Kokila travel to Mumbai to bring back Ahem and Meera-Vidya. After many failed attempts, they finally reunite the family. Vidya's marriage is fixed with Shravan, whose grandmother, Gaura, is Kokila's childhood friend. Gaura, who wants revenge on Kokila for her brother's death, secretly gets Meera married to her son, Dharam. Madhu returns with her adopted daughter, Sona, seeking revenge against the Modis for Radha's death. While trying to stab Kokila, Madhu accidentally stabs Gopi. Guilt-ridden after getting slapped by Sona, she runs away and jumps into a lake. Gopi survives and Sahir marries Sona, which is not accepted by Paridhi. Dharam and Meera gradually fall in love and they get remarried. But their happiness is short-lived as Ahem dies due to a car accident.

4 years later

Gopi has been in depression since Ahem's demise and has not talked in years. Paridhi has thrown Sahir and Sona out of the Modi mansion and got Samar married to a rich girl named Monica. Baa, Chirag, Hetal, and Parag have moved to America for Baa's treatment. While Dhaval, Kinjal, and Pappu have moved to London. Vidya has a 4-year-old daughter with Shravan, Priyal. Kokila fixes Gopi's marriage with her therapist and doctor, Krishna Raheja, who turns out to be Mansi's brother and wants to take revenge on Gopi for separating Mansi and Ahem. Soon, Gopi and Kokila meet Ahem's look-alike, Jaggi, and request him to save Gopi from Krishna's evil plans. Later, it is revealed that Jaggi is Parag and Urvashi's illegitimate son.

Gopi learns from her friend, Antara, who is on her deathbed, that she gave birth to a son, and that Vidya is not Gopi's daughter. Antara had cheated on Gopi by swapping her daughter with Gopi’s son. Gopi's long-lost son, Ramakant, has now grown into a spoiled and selfish young man. Gopi and Jaggi bring Ramakant to live with Modis. Later, the Modis arrange his marriage to Sita. Ricky runs away from his marriage with Sita and marries Anita's daughter, Sameera. Later, after he reforms, he divorces Sameera and marries Sita.

Production

Casting

In May 2012, lead Giaa Manek signed on to appear on the reality show Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa on rival network Colors TV.[16] Saathiya producers objected, noting that Manek was under contract with their network and that doing a reality series could tarnish her onscreen image as a soft-spoken character.[17] The producers took their complaints to the Association of Motion Pictures and TV Programme Producers (AMPTPP) and to Cine and TV Artistes’ Association (CINTAA) for arbitration. Members of CINTAA had meetings with Manek and asked her to quit the reality show. Manek declined and Star replaced her with Devoleena Bhattacharjee.[17]

In January 2014, Rucha Hasabnis playing Rashi confirmed that she planned to quit the series any time in that year.[18] However, she decided to quit acting and left with her character being killed.[19]

In September 2015, Lovey Sasan playing Paridhi quit the series as she did not want to play the role of a mother.[20] However, after sometime when the makers approached her, she agreed and returned in March 2016.[21]

In May 2016, Mohammed Nazim as Ahem quit the show because of one member of the production crew stating:[22]

"Since the existing key actors aired their reservations about playing grandparents, the creatives had no option but to put the time leap on hold. Something drastic needed to be done to liven up the storyline. After brainstorming, the best idea seemed to bump off Ahem's character, so a new man could be introduced in protagonist Gopi's life to take the story forward,"

Khalid Siddiqui was cast opposite Bhattacharjee as Krishna in May 2016.[23] As their story decreased in ratings, in July 2016, Nazim was made to re-enter the series as Jaggi, a look-a-like of Ahem's illegitimate twin half-brother. The story now focused on him and Bhattacharjee.[24]

Filming

Set in Gujarat, the series was mainly filmed at sets in Mira Road near Mumbai. The outside shell of the Modi Mansion shown in the episodes was of the Shubham Villa located on Madh Island.[25][26] In December 2012, a sequence was shot at Bhuj, Gujarat, for 10 days.[27]

Some episodes were also filmed at foreign locations, including Switzerland in May 2011 and Singapore in February and March 2017.[28][29] Earlier, the United States was considered, but was cancelled and replaced with Singapore due to the studio's budget.[30]

Reboot series

On 26 May 2021, Shoonya Square Productions announced a reboot of Saathiya on Star Plus's Sister channel Star Bharat with similar cast figures including Giaa Manek, Mohammad Nazim, Rupal Patel and Vandana Vithlani reprising their roles.[31][32] Along with these actors, there were several new characters with similar concepts of a Gujarati Joint-Family.[33] The show aired on Star Bharat, the sister channel of StarPlus.[34] In early July 2021, the title was finalized as Tera Mera Saath Rahe.[35] On 25 July 2021, the first promo was released featuring Giaa Manek and Rupal Patel.[36] The reboot version was broadcast from 16 August 2021 to 17 June 2022.

It was also broadcast in Romanian as Suflete Tradate which aired on National TV (Romania).[45][46][47] Saath Nibhaana Saathiya aired in Pakistan on Urdu 1 and H Now Entertainment but was later discontinued due to the censorship of Indian content.[48] It also aired in Sri Lanka dubbed in Sinhala as Mage Sanda Obai on Swarnavahini.[49][50]

Reception

Criticism

Hindustan Times appreciated the series for the majority of the cast being newcomers; however, they criticised the series as "The loud clothes and backward settings induce a pukey sensation. There's serious amount of overacting involved by the actors, whether they play protagonists or mums and dads. It’s too old fashioned and boring".[52]
