Abhishek Malik, who plays the role of Neel Paranjape in the show Jamai No. 1, says the show gives a fresh perspective on the age-old saas-damaad drama. “It’s a male-centric show, which is rare on TV. Most shows revolve around women, but Jamai No. 1 brings a fresh perspective with its focus on the saas-damaad drama. Neel, my character, is genuine, spiritual and values his roots, but he’s also a jugadu who knows how to set things right. This unique dynamic with his mother-in-law sets the show apart,” he says.

He adds, “Male-centric shows are every actor’s dream since TV is mostly dominated by saas-bahu dramas.”

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
