Hindi TV Serial - Pavitra Rishta - 18 years later, Archana and Manav meet

The serial took a time leap at a very strange time, when Manav and Archana separated from each other. Manav was very angry with Archana since he blamed her for the loss of Soham, who Varsha had run away with and then jumped into a water body when she was found. Soon after, Manav left for Canada along with his family, and when Savita was told to ask Archana whether she wanted to go, Savita played her own game and did not ask Archana. As a result, Manav believed that Archana did not want to do with him, and Archana believed that Manav did not take her, and neither really tried to get in touch with each other over the years.
The story resumed 18 years later, and by that time, the twin daughters that Manav and Archana had grown up into 2 young teenagers, one more strong-willed and the other more like a regular girl. So far there is no trace of Varsha and Soham. In addition, Archana, never had re-married, and found a young kid, had taken her to her house and raised her as Purvi. They remain middle class.
One of Manav's daughter is in love with Arjun, the son of DK and Aashna. Arjun is more strong-headed, and wants to play a role in the business. He starts getting involved in the takeover of a company in India, and that is the company where Archana works. And this is the point where Archana and Manav meet. Arjun wants to terminate a large number of workers in the Indian company, and when there are some protests, Manav comes there and rescinds the termination notice, more so, when he comes face to face with Archana.
On the other hand, Manjusha and Vinod are facing more problems. Their daughter Punni, having seen the morals of her mother Manjusha is getting out of hand, like when she had an affair with her rich boss, and when her family gets to know, they are scandalised and lock her up in a room. Punni blames Purvi for this, since it was Purvi who revealed the truth.

Hindi TV Serial - Bade Acche Lagte Hai - Fun and games with Santa, but very serious about Natasha

The serial has suddenly got more serious about the issues related to Natasha and her pregnancy. For some time now, infact before her marriage, Natasha knew that she was pregnant, and so did her mother, but they wanted to ensure that the marriage happened, so the marriage proceeded, and so did the pregnancy, and nobody at her inlaws place got to know, nor did her husband. He did find her health a bit uncertain, and so did once directly ask, and she lied to him that she was not pregnant.
Natasha was very uncertain about the pregnancy, whether she is ready for it, and whether she is in the right frame of mind for it, and after some more experiences, she was getting to be an emotional wreck; having decided that she did not want to have the pregnancy, she went ahead and got an abortion. But she did not tell anybody about the abortion either.
But, things got revealed. First, she developed bad blood with her sister in law, who did a bit of snooping and who got confirmation that Natasha is indeed pregnant, and who informed the rest of the family about it. They were all over-joyed, not knowing that she has terminated the pregnancy. Only Natasha was very afraid about what to tell all of them, and did not tell anybody. But this news is also coming out, with her younger sister-in-law finding out about this, and then finally Priya also finding out. Natasha remains arrogant, so we will see a confrontation between her and Priya, related to whether her brother will listen to her words, or that of Priya's husband.

Hindi TV Serial - Diya Aur Bati Hum - Sandhya's truth out, getting blamed for everything

In a Hindi serial, if one of the positive characters has a secret, you can be sure that the secret will be revealed such that they will end up getting blamed for everything. In the current situation, although Sandhya has not revealed so that she is much more educated than Sooraj or the rest of the family (while they consider her to be educated upto the 7th standard); her secret is getting revealed by the newspaper (she came 3rd overall in Rajasthan), and hence her secret is getting revealed.
Sandhya was looking for some time for the opportunity to tell Bhabho, but somehow the occasion was not happening, and then the truth comes out in the worst possible fashion. Other ladies from the community see it, and using this as an opportunity to embarrass Bhabho, they come to the house, apparently to congratulate her for having such a highly educated bahu. At around the same time, Bhabho realizes that Sandhya does not know much of cooking (when Sandhya takes cut ladyfinger and tries to make a curry out of them).
Seeing the opportunity, Meena uses the chance to get some of her revenge, adding to the pressure on Sandhya by suggesting that Sandhya had hidden this fact deliberately from everybody, and in fact, since the complaint against Bhabho was made by somebody who was educated, it was done by Sandhya.
Sandhya is left trying to defend herself, with nobody listening to her, and even the ones who she thought would be on her side also saying that they are not sure as to what to believe, and what not to believe; Sooraj also seems to be on the same side.

Hindi TV Serial - Parichay - Marriage between Rohit and Raveena is broken up at the temple

The situation is getting serious. Raveena's marriage has been fixed with Vikram, who is positively besotted with her, and she did not say no to the marriage. The complication is that she has fallen in love with Rohit, the brother of Richa Thakral. Now, Rohit is a positive flirt, and everybody else in the family is aware of his reputation, and would never have wanted Rohit to come anywhere near Raveena. Richa knows about this, but since she keeps on looking for ways to bring distances between Kunal and Sidhi, she does not say anything (and of course, no one would ever say that Richa was trying to do good in the serial).
Sidhi comes to know of a relationship between Raveena and Rohit, and is shocked, but she holds back telling others in the family (even though Kunal suspects that she is hiding something) when Raveena convinces her that she has nothing to do with Rohit, and it was only rohit was after her. So, things move ahead.
Things get critical on the day of the wedding, where Raveena and Siddhi go to the parlour even though Gaurav objects; from the parlour, Raveena makes her escape along with Rohit and they decide to go to a temple where Rohit has arranged everything for a wedding. After a lot of hunt, Kunal and his family locate Raveena and Rohit before the pheras can be completed, and Kunal starts hitting Rohit; they also drag Raveena from there and take her back home, unsure of what to do now.
Rohit is all the more shocked when Richa, who has reached there, also slaps him. He accuses her of acting only for her own regard, and not letting his marriage happen; and such a claim of selfishness from her own brother is shocking to Richa. At the house, when Siddhi is accused of knowing about things, Kunal stands up for her and tells that he is sure that she cannot be guilty of letting them elope.
