"Home
Shanti
as
a
family
drama
takes
a
close
look
at
the
emotional
journey
a
family
makes
while
building
their
dream
home.
It
is
a
breezy,
uplifting
and
humorous
drama
that
will
make
the
viewer
fall
in
love
with
the
Joshis
and
root
for
them
till
the
last
brick
has
been
laid.
I
feel
incredibly
grateful
for
Supriya
Pathak
and
Manoj
Pahwa,
who
brought
their
wondrous
synergy
to
the
drama.
Their
on-screen
chemistry
pulled
at
my
heartstrings
and
I
am
sure
they
will
cast
the
same
spell
on
the
audience.
We've
got
some
talented
actors,
Chakori
Dwivedi
and
Poojan
Chabbra
as
the
Joshi
siblings
who
have
made
the
characters
so
loveable.
Happy
Ranajit
as
the
contractor
is
spot
on!
Infact
the
entire
cast
of
Home
Shanti
feels
like
a
fun
ensemble
and
the
characters
grow
on
you.
Can't
wait
to
see
the
audience's
reaction
to
this
emotional
cushion
of
a
drama."
Actor
Manoj
Pahwa
said
,
"I
feel
extremely
proud
to
be
a
part
of
a
special
project
like
Home
Shanti.
I
fell
in
love
with
the
show's
storyline
of
a
heartfelt
and
endearing
drama.
Viewers
can
expect
a
fun,
easy
watch
that
touches
their
heart
with
its
simple
story
and
its
even
simpler
characters.
However,
playing
these
simple
characters
is
what
gets
me
motivated
as
an
actor.
Getting
back
on
the
sets
with
Supirya
ji
was
like
slipping
into
comfortable
waters
for
me.
I
must
applaud
the
new
talents
as
well
as
they
have
been
such
an
easy
flock
to
work
and
laugh
with.
I
can't
wait
to
see
how
the
audience
responds
to
the
show."
Actor
Supriya
Pathak
said,
"Home
Shanti
is
a
heartfelt
family
drama
that
makes
you
step
back
and
take
note
of
those
little
intimacies
shared
in
a
family.
The
relatability
factor
of
this
drama
is
very
high
for
we
all
know
of
families
who
dream
of
owning
a
house
one
day.
I
had
an
absolute
gala
time
working
on
this
series,
especially
getting
to
rekindle
Manoj
and
my
chemistry
had
me
super
excited.
At
times,
the
set
felt
like
an
extension
of
a
family."
The
Joshis
encounter
a
dilemma
when
their
matriarch,
Sarla
Joshi
decides
to
take
voluntary
retirement
from
her
government
school
job
instead
of
accepting
a
transfer
halfway
across
the
country.
The
family,
based
in
Dehradun,
now
face
the
predicament
of
finding
a
house
following
the
short
notice
to
vacate
their
comfortable
government
allocated
quarters
where
they
have
been
residing
for
the
past
20
years.
With
limited
time
to
vacate
their
present,
the
family
of
four
set
out
on
the
arduous
quest
of
building
a
new
home
on
a
small
piece
of
ancestral
land.
Home
Shanti
is
a
light-hearted
family
drama,
about
the
humorous
situations
a
family
encounters
while
building
their
dream
home.
