Synopsis
Aggabai Sasubai is the story of Asavari Kulkarni (Nivedita Joshi Saraf), an honest, loving and caring widow, who selflessly takes care of her family and faces all life issues with peace. Her husband has passed away a couple of decades ago and therefore, she raised her son Soham (Ashutosh Patki) as a single parent and has also taken care of her elderly authoritative father-in-law Aajoba (Ravi Patwardhan). However, Asavari always pays less attention to herself while loving everyone else. After the marriage of Soham, the show focuses on how Asavari's daughter-in-law Shubhra (Tejashree Pradhan), who shares a deep bond with her mother-in-law, strives to bring a little joy in Asavari's life and decides to get her remarried with her own favourite chef Abhijeet Raje (Girish Oak).
