&TV’s Doosri Maa Celebrates the Essence of Motherhood with a Heartwarming On-Screen Bond Between Yashoda and Krishna
Ahmedabad (Gujarat) [India], May 17: The bond between a mother and child is often portrayed as eternal, selfless, and unconditional. However, in the case of Doosri Maa on &TV, the beautiful journey of motherhood takes a unique twist. The show showcases Yashoda (played by Neha Joshi), a woman living in Uttar Pradesh with her husband Ashok (Mohit Dagga), their two daughters, and in-laws. Her family’s peaceful life is turned upside down when she unknowingly adopts her husband’s illegitimate son, Krishna (Aayudh Bhanushali).
While the theme of motherhood has been portrayed in various ways on television and in films, Yashoda’s character stands out due to her ability to balance maternal instincts with the pain of being betrayed by her husband. Her courageous journey to come to terms with his past and her unwavering support for Krishna, despite the societal pressures, has made Doosri Maa one of the most beloved family dramas on Indian television.
This Mother’s Day, Neha Joshi (Yashoda) and Aayudh Bhanushali (Krishna) sat down in Jaipur to discuss their characters and the deep on-screen bond they share. Neha Joshi expressed, “Doosri Maa is a show that celebrates the profound feeling of motherhood. Yashoda’s love for her children knows no bounds. She fights for Krishna, her son, as fiercely as any mother would for her biological children. Her ability to treat all her children equally, despite the complexities of her family situation, makes her a strong, nurturing figure.”
Neha added, “Playing this role has made me experience the essence of motherhood. Off-screen, the bond with my on-screen children is very special. We spend time together not just on set but off-set too, exploring Jaipur and sharing moments of joy. The kids bring so much warmth to my heart, and I treat them like my own.”
Aayudh Bhanushali, who portrays Krishna, shared, “The bond between Krishna and Yashoda is something truly special. Yashoda’s unconditional love and support for Krishna, despite the family’s rejection, showcases the true meaning of motherhood. Off-screen, Neha Joshi Ji is like a mother to me. I call her ‘Aai’ (mother), and she has always been protective and caring towards me. We share a great camaraderie on set, and I feel at home with her around.”
Catch the heartwarming portrayal of motherhood on Doosri Maa every Monday to Friday at 8:00 PM on &TV, and celebrate the power of maternal love that transcends all boundaries.
