Aasia Kazi, Bandini on NDTV Imagine

After all, a story about a young girl forced into a marriage of convenience with a man twice her age makes for a better story than squabbling and scheming sass and bahus. Plus, Aasia is really talented.
Dilip Joshi and Disha Wakani, Tarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashma on Sab TV
