This is a serial that explores human relationships. Each hourly episode is different, and more than often the stories are good ones. The performances too are upto par.Last weeks episode was a good one too. This time it was unique in a way. The story is of a young man who lands up in mumbai to become a star. he happens to meet a eunuch, who takes him up and tcares for him. This eunuch does everything for the boy, right from nursing him to health, to feeding him to getting his portfolio shot. When folks try to give a name to this relationship, the eunuch explains that she thinks of the boy as her brother. As a result of wwhat she is, she was unable to bless her real brother at his wedding.
Well, the eunuch has a contact with a film director, who looks upon her as a person whose blessings bring him luck. To this person, she asks a favor. She asks him to give a chance to the boy. without letting him know the true facts.
On getting the break, the boy leaves the eunuch and further on denies knowing the eunuch.
All this breaks the eunuch's heart.. She goes to see him for one last time. She feels intuitively that she'd possibly se him on the road. Alas, however, she is knocked down by a speeding truck. The boy is caught in the resulting traffic with the director. When he mentions his disgust at the mess caused by the eunuchs death., the director is furious. And reprimands him and tells him, that the success wave he is riding on, is actually as a result of the eunuch ( Ramkali).
Ah the fickleness of human nature. people do have a tendency of forgetting good deeds done unto them.
