She loves emulating all Bollywood heroines dance moves that translated into her becoming a dancer. Her life throws another curveball at her when she gets married to an affluent businessman Yug Pratap Singh as her life takes a strange turn magnifying her trouble.

The character of Chamcham, a Nachaniya from Bihar, her journey to find love and respect, and the chemistry between two striking personalities is what sets the tone of the show and makes it stand out. We are excited to associate with Gul Khan who has done some incredible work in the past, and look forward to entertaining our viewers with exceptional storytelling.”
