Balaji Telefilms' first daily soap on
COLORS, 'Bhairi Piya' is a story set in the suburbs of Vidharbh in Maharashtra, wherein the farmers eagerly wait for the rains to give them the much needed money and food. And the show also deals with the pitiable state of the farmers who are often deprived of rains, which leads to many of them committing suicide. Amidst this back drop is set a love story.
The show was earlier to be based on a Rajasthani concept, but will now revolve around two families, a Marwari and a Maharashtrian family.
According to our source, "The shoot for the show was expected to start on September 1st, but due to the delay in finalizing the main cast, the shoot dates have been postponed. The show is now expected to launch in early October".
