What happens when society turns its back on a woman for not giving birth to a son? Most would expect her to break—but not Ganga Mai. Zee TV’s upcoming drama Ganga Mai Ki Betiyan is here to redefine resilience, dignity, and the quiet power of motherhood. And leading this emotionally powerful story is the incredibly talented Shubhangi Latkar, playing the titular role of Ganga Mai.

A Story Rooted in Reality and Strength

Adapted from the popular Kannada show Puttakana Makkalu, Ganga Mai Ki Betiyan isn’t just another television serial—it’s a movement. It tells the story of a woman abandoned by her husband simply because she couldn’t bear a son. But instead of crumbling under societal pressure, she holds her head high and chooses to live life on her own terms.

Set in Varanasi, the story beautifully captures Ganga Mai’s journey as she raises her three daughters single-handedly. From running a modest mess to being the moral compass for her family and community, Ganga Mai’s life is a masterclass in strength, self-respect, and maternal love.

Shubhangi Latkar: A Perfect Fit for Ganga Mai

Let’s be honest—there are very few actresses who can bring emotional depth and raw honesty to a role like Shubhangi Latkar. Speaking about her character, Shubhangi says:

When I first heard the narration, I was moved by the raw honesty of Ganga Mai’s character. She is real, grounded, and has faced the harshest realities with so much grace. I said yes almost instantly because roles like these are rare and so fulfilling as an actor.

And we totally get why. Ganga Mai is not your usual television mother—she’s layered, emotionally intelligent, and full of silent strength. With no formal education, but an ocean of wisdom, she becomes the emotional backbone of her daughters and her community.

Produced by Dreamiyata Dramaa: Expect High-Quality Storytelling

This show comes from the house of Dreamiyata Dramaa, the production company owned by Ravi Dubey and Sargun Mehta. Given their track record of emotionally gripping and socially relevant content, expectations are sky-high—and Ganga Mai Ki Betiyan looks like it will deliver on all fronts.

Why This Show Matters

In a world where women’s worth is still too often tied to bearing sons, Ganga Mai Ki Betiyan is a bold, necessary, and timely narrative. It’s a story of everyday courage—the kind that doesn’t shout but speaks volumes.

Whether you’re a fan of meaningful storytelling, strong female characters, or just looking for a show with heart and soul, this one should be on your watchlist.
