Where there is love, there is a much crazier approach to get approval from your parents. Such has been the journey for Pancham and Elaichi from Sony SAB’s Jijaji Chhat Per Hain. Elaichi, a street-smart, unabashed girl from Chandni Chowk, is known for her clever pranks and totally crazy ideas to have her father, Murari, approve of Pancham. Elaichi hides her love affair while ‘almost’ living under the same roof as Pancham, has brewed some exciting and hilarious ideas to make Murari, who is a principled and a controlling father, accept Pancham as her partner.
Some hilarious moments when Elaichi put the ‘CRAZY’ in her ideas:
- ‘Pichhale janam ke premi iss janam mein’
When the past life manifested itself in Elaichi’s life. Elaichi and Pancham who were allegedly ‘Pichale Janam Ke Premi’ take over the characters from their past life where Pancham is a handsome firangi babu while Elaichi is a shy desi kudi. The duo create a dramatic scene and a performance sticking to their characters, to convince Murari to approve of them given their past connection.
- Pintoo ko chudel le gayi
A chilling rumour was making rounds in Chandni Chowk. There was a vicious Chudel in the neighbourhood who would abduct people at night. Elaichi had the perfect idea to use this rumour in her favour. She figured, if she creates her own rumour saying, Pintoo has been abducted by the witch. This gave her an opportunity to present Pancham in front of Murari as a prospective widower.
- When Pancham’s ‘fake’ father visits Murari
To create an ideal image for Pancham and his family, Elaichi disguises a man as Pancham’s father, who then visits Murari. Elaichi presents the Pancham’s father as a rich and a wealthy man who doesn’t approve of ‘Pintoo’ as Pancham’s wife and offers a marriage proposal for Elaichi and his son Pancham. The plan seemed foolproof but Elaichi was taken aback when Murari openly shares his dislike towards Pancham and their alliance.
- Pancham’s double role as Pancham’s twin
If Elaichi can’t marry Jijaji, she can certainly marry Jijaji’s twin. One of her clever schemes where Elaichi disguises Pancham as his identical twin and tries to get Murari’s approval.
- Nani Jijaji ki responsibility hain
In an attempt to portray Pancham as an ideal man who takes over the responsibility of getting Naniji home safe, Elaichi proposes to Murari that Pancham should get Nani home safely. Little did they know that Pancham loses Naniji on their way instead.
Did any of these ideas inspire the crazy in you?
