‘Doree’ airing every day at 9:00PM on COLORS
TIL Desk Entertainment/ COLORS’ recently launched show ‘Doree’ has shed light on girl-child abandonment by tracing the tale of Ganga Prasad’s foster daughter Doree, who challenges patriarchal norms. Set in Varanasi, the thought-provoking drama revolves around the six-year-old girl standing up against the regressive mindset of Kailashi Devi Thakur, a matriarch who owns the biggest handloom empire in Varanasi and holds stern control over the Thakur household. Starring Sudhaa Chandran as Kailashi Devi Thakur, Amar Upadhyay as Ganga Prasad, and Mahi Bhanushali as Doree, the story is garnering love for showcasing the clash of regressive and progressive thoughts. ‘Doree’ airing every day at 9:00PM on COLORS.
In its current storyline, Doree’s biological mother, Mansi is certain that her abandoned daughter is alive. On the other hand, Doree wants her father Ganga Prasad to earn recognition as a talented weaver of the Bunkar community and get credit for his unique saree design against Kailashi Devi’s wishes. While Ganga wants the best of everything for Doree, she wants her father’s skill as a weaver to shine in the spotlight. Against the cunning intentions of Kailashi Devi, will Doree’s resilience earn her father the much-deserved appreciation? Watch this endearing duo of father and daughter on ‘Doree’ airing daily at 9:00 pm only on COLORS.
Sharing her thoughts on promoting the show in Lucknow, Sudhaa Chandran says, “I thoroughly enjoyed my time exploring Lucknow and promoting Doree, a thought-provoking drama that opened to tremendous love from the viewers. The story of the show is set in Uttar Pradesh and spreading the word about it in this beautiful state feels incredible. It underlines the issue of girl-child abandonment while shedding light on the chhoti soch that plagues our society. I thank the audience for adoring my character as Kailashi Devi, a matriarch who tragically believes that daughters can’t carry forward a family’s legacy. I hope this show serves as an inspiration for many Dorees in the country to challenge this chhoti soch.” Stay tuned to ‘Doree’ airing every day at 9:00 pm only on COLORS.
