Bade Achhe Lagte Hain (English: It Seems So Beautiful; Hindi: बड़े अच्छे लगते हैं ; pronounced [bəɽˈeː ətʃˈtʃʰeː ləɡət̪ˈeː ɦɛː ̃]) is a Hindi-language Indian television soap opera which was broadcast by Sony Entertainment Television India from 30 May 2011[4][5][9][10][11][12][13] to 10 July 2014, when it ended its run after telecasting 644 episodes.[4][5][14] Based on the Gujarati play Patrani by Imtiaz Patel,[15][16] the soap opera was created by Ekta Kapoor and was produced by her production company Balaji Telefilms.[4][5][13][17][18][19][20] The name of the soap opera, along with its title track, was inspired by the song of the same name, composed by R.D. Burman, from the soundtrack of the 1976 Bollywood film Balika Badhu.[4][5][18][19][21] Ekta Kapoor had got the name, Bade Achhe Lagte Hain, registered about six years before the soap opera premiered.[19] Bade Achhe Lagte Hain is the seventh most watched television show of 2011, in India.[22]

The show explores the worlds of its protagonists Priya Sharma (Sakshi Tanwar) and Ram Kapoor (Ram Kapoor), who accidentally discover love after getting married.[8][4][5][11][12][13][14][20][20][22][23][24] After the storyline moved five years ahead in June 2012, many new actors and characters, including Samir Kochhar and Amrita Mukherjee who played the roles of Rajat Kapur and Peehu respectively, were introduced.[6][4][5][25]

Sakshi Tanwar and Ram Kappor received the Dadasaheb Phalke Academy Award for portraying their respective roles in the soap opera while Ekta Kapoor received the Best Producer award.[26] Bade Achhe Lagte Hain has also won the Kalakar Award for the Best Serial in 2012.[27] It was also voted the Most Inspiring Soap in 2013, receiving a vote count of 43.68%.[11]

Bade Achhe Lagte Hain was dubbed in Telugu and broadcast on Gemini TV as Nuvvu Nachhavu, premiering on 9 April 2012.[28][29] It ended its run on 31 August 2012 after airing 105 episodes. Bade Achhe Lagte Hain was also dubbed in Tamil and is broadcast by Polimer TV as Ullam Kollai Poguthada. It premiered on 10 December 2012.[30] An English dubbed version also premiered in Jamaica under the title It Seems So Beautiful on CVM TV on 11 August 2014.[31]

Plot

Ram Kapoor (Ram Kapoor) is a well-reputed, rich and powerful businessman in his early 40s. Priya Sharma (Sakshi Tanwar), who is in her late 30s, comes from a middle-class family. She is sensible, philosophical and more mature than Ram. The story begins when Ram's younger step sister Natasha (Sumona Chakravarti) and Priya's younger brother Kartik (Mohit Malhotra), who fall in love with each other. Kartik does not think he should marry before his older sister marries. To solve this problem, Ram agrees to marry Priya to allow Kartik and Natasha marry. Initially, Ram and Priya dislike each other but enter into a compromise marriage for their family.

Their marriage begins with an initial dislike towards each other. Ram's stepmother Niharika, her brother Shiney and Ram's stepbrother Siddhant plot against Priya to keep Ram and Priya apart. However, every time their trust and respect for each other grows stronger after encountering many hurdles in their relationship. As time passes, they spend more time with one another and they begin to love each other. However, their relationship remains difficult — every time Priya and Ram grow closer, problems arise and drive them apart. Priya shows the true colors of Niharika to Ram. Ram doesn't believes her but later comes to know about it.

A leap of five years happens. Ram and Priya have separated. Priya is in Dubai and happy with her daughter, Pihu. Ram on the other hand is unaware of his wife and daughter's existence. Ram is married to Priya' sister Ayesha for the sake of her son Khush, because Siddhant left her after her pregnancy. Ram's real mother Krishna has returned to the Kapoor mansion and started living with Ram. After many hits and misses, Ram and Priya finally meet in Mumbai where Ram is shocked to find out the love of his life is alive. He is livid with Priya for keeping herself and his daughter away from him for five years. Ayesha starts plotting against Priya. Ram files for custody case of Pihu. Rajat Kapur, who is Ram's friend in Dubai who is in love with Priya, helps her to fight the case. After a lot of misunderstandings, their love emerges true. Ram and Priya are united yet again. Ayesha leaves Ram's life. Soon Priya gets pregnant with twin daughters Myra and Pari. Ayesha's son Khush now lives with Ram and Priya. They treat him as their own son and he respects them as his own parents.

As the story progresses, several antagonists are introduced and the narrative moves between discontinuous time periods. After a leap of 15 years, Ram and Priya's life continues with their grown-up children and they live together happily ever after; their true love for each other wins.

Cast

Production

Bade Achhe Lagte Hain was initially intended to run for 150 episodes but as its popularity increased it went on to telecast a total of 644 episodes. Bade Achhe Lagte Hain went off-air after completing a run of 3 years, 3 months and 11 days.[4][5][14][32][33][34][35][36]

Shooting

Bade Achhe Lagte Hain is one of the soap operas in India which broke the monotone of endless indoors-only sequences.[37] Most of its filming was done in India, but many episodes were shot in foreign locales. Sixteen (episodes 102-117) were shot in Australia over 14 days, in partnership with Tourism Australia, in late 2011, to portray the honeymoon of Ram (Ram Kapoor) and Priya (Sakshi Tanwar). Bade Achhe Lagte Hain also received support from Destination New South Wales, Sony Entertainment Television India and Balaji Telefilms.[7][4][5][37][38][39]

During the summer of 2012, Ekta Kapoor introduced a five-year leap in the narrative.[40] After this leap, thirty six episodes of the show (episodes 235-270) had content which was shot in Dubai, UAE over a period of 10 days.[4][5][25][32][39][41] These episodes showed Priya (Sakshi Tanwar) living with her five-year-old daughter Peehu (Amrita Mukherjee) in the city until she has to return to Mumbai, India. The production team failed to obtain the correct permits to shoot in Dubai and had to briefly stop shooting until the paperwork was processed.[41][42][43][44]

Music

The title track of the soap opera was inspired by the song "Bade Achhe Lagte Hain", composed by R.D. Burman, from the 1976 Bollywood movie, Balika Badhu.[4][5] The lyrics of the soap opera's title track were written by Nawab Arzoo, and it was sung by Shreya Ghoshal and Trijayh Dey. Lalit Sen provided the music to the title track.[15] The background music or the incidental music of the soap opera was provided by Abhishek Singh and Mintu Jha.[15] It also includes songs from the soundtrack albums of a few Bollywood movies.

Dubs and rebroadcasts

Bade Achhe Lagte Hain was dubbed in Telugu and broadcast on Gemini TV as Nuvvu Nachhavu, an afternoon soap opera, premiering on 9 April 2012.[28][29][45] Nuvvu Nachhavu ended its run on 31 August 2012 after airing 105 episodes. Bade Achhe Lagte Hain was also dubbed in Tamil and airs on Polimer TV as Ullam Kollai Poguthada, with some of the characters' names changed. Ullam Kollai Poguthada premiered on 10 December 2012.[30]

An English dubbed version of Bade Achhe Lagte Hain premiered in Jamaica under the title It Seems So Beautiful on CVM TV (free-to-air) on 11 August 2014. It is shown Monday to Friday at 1:00pm and a repeat marathon on Saturdays at 12:00pm of the five episodes is shown during the week.[46][31]

Reception

Response

Bade Achhe Lagte Hain was the fifth most-watched television show in the thirty-fourth week (14–20 August) of 2011 in India, helping propel the broadcasting channel, Sony Entertainment Television India, to number two in the rankings of the Hindi general entertainment television channels.[57] The soap opera had a television viewer rating of 3.7 that week while Sony Entertainment Television India recorded a gross rating point of 245.[57]

In the forty-eighth week of 2011 (25 November – 1 December), the soap opera became the fourth most-watched television show in India, with a TVR of 4.30,[58] and was the seventh most-watched of 2011.[22]

Episode 166 of Bade Achhe Lagte Hain, directed by Anil V. Kumar[15] and telecast on 12 March 2012, was much hyped and anticipated. It showed the protagonists consummating their marriage.[10][59][60][61][62][63] India Today described the episode as "aesthetically shot". It was backed by a teaser which drew the required hype and interest.[60] The consummation sequence was so much anticipated that within minutes of the episode's telecast, the episode went viral on YouTube with nearly 150,630 hits and counting.[9][59][61][62] The lovemaking scene also trended on social networking and microblogging sites such as Twitter.[9][10][59][61] The Times of India described the episode as "action packed".[61] Many viewers made fun of the episode and the overweight Ram Kapoor.[9][10][64]

IBN Live stated, "Indian television is still a good few decades immature when it comes to sex on the TV screen. So much for all the matured relationships and relevant themes – love making on Indian TV is as painful and archaic as the shaking flowers replacing actors on screen when they kiss or make love. A small sigh of relief and Ekta Kapoor and the director can congratulate themselves for the real onscreen peck on the lips."[10]

The episode was so hyped as a couple on an Indian television had never before been so bold.[9][9][61][64][65] The episode worried certain viewers who did not want to watch the episode with their children.[60][63] Emirates 24/7 called it a "shocker to the Indian families".[9] India Today described the episode as a "big surprise for the audiences" while Times of India rated it as the Top Intimate Moment on TV.[59][60][65] The last couple who had kissed on Indian television was Aditya Jakhar (Raqesh Vashisht) and Priya Jakhar (Riddhi Dogra) in the STAR Plus soap opera Maryada...Lekin Kab Tak? in 2010.[61] Following the telecast of the episode, Kapoor tweeted a thank you.[61]

Bade Achhe Lagte Hain was the second most-watched fictional Hindi television show in the weekdays of the twenty-ninth week of 2012 (15–21 July) with a Television Rating Point (TRP) of 4.2, which was 0.5 points up from the TRP of the previous week (8–14 July) when the show had a TRP of 3.7.[66] In early January 2013, the soap opera's TRP went down to 2.3.[67]

In a poll conducted by Shaadi.com, Ram and Priya were voted the Favourite TV Couple by 42.3% of Indians.[11][68] Fans dubbed the on-screen couple Raya (also written as RaYa), which is a linguistic blend of the pair's names.[4][5][69] Ram Kapoor was called "the Indian husband we love" by a Sunday publication in 2012.[10]

Accolades

Sakshi Tanwar and Ram Kapoor received the Dadasaheb Phalke Academy Award for portraying their respective roles in Bade Achhe Lagte Hain, while Ekta Kapoor received the Best Producer award.[26] Bade Achhe Lagte Hain also won the Kalakar Award for the Best Serial in 2012.[27] In addition, the show has won six Indian Television Academy Awards,[70] three Star Guild Awards,[71] five Indian Telly Awards, three FICCI Frames Excellence Honours and two People's Choice Awards.[72]

Gone are the days when television was looked down upon as playing second fiddle to Bollywood. Soap stars, too, are now as much household names in India as their Bollywood counterparts. Typically, they are associated with their screen names and personas. Thus, Tulsi in Kyunki (Smriti Irani); Parvati in Kahaani and now in her new avatar as Priya in Bade Achhe Lagte Hain (Sakshi Tanwar); Ram Kapoor, the eponymous protagonist in Bade Achhe Lagte Hain... all have achieved iconic status and are instantly recognizable...the actors often become so strongly associated with an image that audiences are unable to accept them in other kinds of roles. Thus, when Sakshi Tanwar, the dutiful and always upright Parvati bhabi from Kahaani, played a cameo as Teepri, a home-breaker in Balika Vadhu (episodes in 2010), it did not go down well with audiences, who were unable to accept their role model as a negative character. Tanwar has since successfully morphed into her role as the thirty-something Priya who marries the rich tycoon in his forties, Ram Kapoor, in Sony's top-rated soap opera about finding love in an arranged marriage, titled Bade Achhe Lagte Hain
