Barjatiyas remain humble despite successes

Monday, June 11, 2007

'Woh Rehne Wali Mehlon Ki' recently celebrated its 500th episode party with great ethics at Hare Rama Hare Krishna temple. Present at the party were the entire cast and crew of the serial, including producers Sooraj and Kavita Barjatiya and their family members.

This show is Rajshri production's first daily soap and was launched on May 30, 2005. Not only has it brought fame to the Barjatiya's, but also made Reena Kapoor aka Pari a household name.

The family had been in the film industry in the field of production ever since the times of Sooraj's grandfather Tarachand Barjatiya and the legacy has continued. The Barjatiyas have got everything today. What they do not have is an ego in spite of being such big names.

The 500th episode celebration party seemed more like a family affair than a media event. The media was given full attention rather than asking for some. Even Kavita's mother was attending each journalist individually.

The event began with offerings to the God at the temple. It was followed by a press interview with the cast and crew of the serial. Then the lead of the show Reena and Amir introduced the rest of the family members. Introduction of the crew was done by Kavita herself. So humble was the family that they made sure that their guests, which included the media, had lunch before they did.

Hats off to you Barjatiyas! All this goes to show the reason for your success.
