Hindi TV Serial - Devon Ke Dev Mahadev - Parvati trying to get Mahadev to agree to marry her

Mythological serials are pretty popular on Indian television. When Ramayan and Mahabharta used to come on Doordarshan decades back, it used to be that India used to come to a standstill and the Government would ensure that there was no power cuts during that time, else there would be rioting. Even now, with so many mythological serials having come and gone, they have a certain attraction, and they also explain some of the beliefs to those people who otherwise do not have any knowledge of Indian mythology and the origin of the Hindu religion.
Typically serials tends to have more of Ram, or Krishna, with serials on Lord Shiva / Mahadev being lesser in number. The serial on Life OK is fairly fine, having the usual drama that forms part of the mythology of the gods. In the case of Lord Shiva, the serial has already covered the life and death of Sati, where she killed herself over the dis-respect shown to her husband, Mahadev by her powerful father Daksha. Shiva went on a rampage over this, sending powerful creatures who killed Daksha and others at the party, but then at the urging of other gods, Shiva gave back life to all of them.
Now, the gods need to get Parvati and Mahadev to get married, their child will be the killer of a very powerful demon; Parvati knows her future, and she is also a reincarnation of Sati. But Mahadev is putting obstacles in her path, he does not want to down the same route as Sati, and is also too much into the memories of Sati. Others such as Lord Vishnu, Narad, and Nandi are trying to best to support Parvati in her quest, and have now sent her on the path of strict prayer to Mahadev, since that would be the way for the union to happen.

Hindi TV Serial - Diya Aur Bati Hum - Suraj and Sandhya heading to Delhi for the cooking competition

Some change in the serial, there will be some time when there will be more of Suraj and Sandhya and less of the politics of the household. For the past several days, ever since there was the news of a cooking contest and Sandhya inspired Suraj to take part in the contest, the happenings in the house have been focused on the cooking contest. To some extent, there was resistance in the house, with Mohit mocking Suraj until he got a blasting from Bhabho about this. On the other side, Bhabho herself was not comfortable with the cooking contest and Sandhya found out from Bhabho the reason for this - apparently Suraj had once lost a race in his early days and carried the defeat for quite some time; Bhabho did not want him to suffer like this.
On the + side, Bhabhasa and Chotu were full supporters of the scheme to send Suraj for the cooking contest, that too it being an international cooking contest and very prestigious. Suraj himself was some hesitant, but Sandhya kept on pushing him and he agreed.
Bhabho does not want others in the locality to know about this, since there will be a number of people who will talk about this, and she does not want others to talk about this, so when Daisa comes to the house, Bhabho changes the conversation - she also tells Meena separately that she should not try any of her tactics about this cooking contest.

Hindi TV Serial - Kya Hua Tera Vaada - Mona and Pradeep still out on a social gathering

The character of Pradeep in the serial is being shown as more and more negative. When it turned out that the proposal by Jatin may be accepted, he tries everything to prevent this from happening, to the extent that he calls Mona's parents (the same ones who were not willing to accept Mona in their home after the breakup) over; they come and start lamblasting Mona's inlaws for trying to get rid of Mona and so on. Then finally the serial shows some amount of steel in Mona since she questions them about whether they are really for Mona, or for their status in society, and finally manages to quieten them. And then when Pradeep tries to say something, she gives him a verbal slap.
This however is not enough for Pradeep. On the other side, Anushka also learns that Pradeep was trying to prevent Mona's remarriage, and also that he had called her parents over, and further, he had taken Anushka out to dinner so that he could keep an eye out on Mona and Jatin's dinner date. She tells him that he has to decide where he wants to be, and she leaves the place, asking him to make a decision. It would be pretty clear to him that Anushka has her own mind, and will not take the same sort of shit that he used to give to Mona.
In another incident, Anushka and Mallika see Mona in a nursing home and learn that the reports show that she is pregnant (might be that the report is actually of Taani, who is pregnant after her relationship with Madhav). Anushka manages to obtain a copy of the report and is going to use that to make an announcement in the engagement party of Mona's cousin where Mona and Pradeep will be going as a couple.

Hindi TV Serial - Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon - Getting closer to getting Arnav out of the trap

It seems like the time has finally come for the vacation of Barun to come to an end, so the serial is moving multiple threads together. It is clear to Khushi and NK that Shyam is the one behind the entire episode of Arnav getting kidnapped, and it was also clear to Khushi that Shyam is totally for her, not caring about his existing marriage and her marriage to Arnav, and also about the fact that Khushi has made it clear to Shyam that she does not share his feelings.
Anjali believes that Shyam is a wonderful husband, dedicated to her; and the serial makers are now implanting the seeds of doubt, so that in the coming episodes, they can show his truth to everybody. To this extent, Mami saw the episode where Khushi was trying to persuade Shyam to give a divorce to his wife, Anjali, and she told the same thing to Anjali. Anjali refused to believe that Shyam could do something like that, and she tried to get in touch with Shyam to confirm; and then she is shocked when Payal does not deny this.
At the other side, Khushi and NK have managed to get hold of a hotel bill and are using that to try and trace where Arnav may have been kept by using the restaurant delivery boys to find the location. Khushi manages to find the location, and does a bit of quick help by removing the kerosene from some jerry cans and replacing them with water, since this can was being meant to try and burn Arnav alive.
By this time Shyam has learnt that Khushi is betraying him, and reaches the place, and confronts her; and she replies back hard to him about whatever he has done.
