Mumbai: A daughter always sees a role model, a friend and a confidant in her mother. But can this work the other way around? Can a mother find inspiration in her daughter and turn to her for life lessons? Bringing forth one such mother-daughter duo, Babita a.k.a Babes and Mini, Sony Entertainment Television is all set to present Patiala Babes – a heartwarming journey where the daughter not only gives wings to her mother but helps her take the leap of faith.
Produced by Katha Kottage Productions, starring Paridhi Sharma as Babes and Ashnoor Kaur as Mini, the show will premiere on 27th November and will air every Mon-Fri at 9:00PM only on Sony Entertainment Television.
Set against the backdrop of Punjab, Babita a.k.a. Babes, is an ideal home-maker who feels everything is perfect in her life. But is it really true or is she living a life of denial? Babes, who usually forgets her own self, her aspirations and her dreams, whilst managing her relationships, draws strength from her daughter, Mini. On the other hand, her daughter Mini, an enterprising teenager, is wise beyond her age and always looks out for Babes and encourages her to try new things. Will Mini be able to push Babes out of her comfort zone and rise above the odds? Or, will Babes succumb to her own inhibitions?
Ashish Golwalkar, Senior Creative Director – Programming, Sony Entertainment Television said, “It’s never too late to realize your dreams and it holds true for all mothers as well. A daughter helping her mother reclaim her identity is not just heartwarming and makes for great content. . With Patiala Babes we want to reach out to our viewers with a mother-daughter journey and make it more inclusive for family viewing. We are happy to have associated with Katha Kottage Productions for this show for the simplicity with which they have woven the narrative”.
Aman Srivastava, Head – Marketing, Sony Entertainment Television said, “A show like Patiala Babes has universal resonance because of the intricate mother-daughter relationship.
