Aadhe Adhoore is an Indian television series which aired on Zindagi from 14 December 2015 to 12 April 2016.[2][3] The story revolved around Jassi who lives in rural Kapurthala in Punjab with a loving mother-in-law and her brother-in-law as her husband works abroad. The show touched on themes of unrequited love and adultery.[4][5] Despite a complex storyline and well-received acting performances, the show was cancelled after viewers thought the show depicted a characterless woman in Jassi.[6][7]
Plot[edit]
Jassi is a young married woman who lives with her affectionate mother-in-law, Beeji, and her younger brother-in-law, Varinder. Jassi's husband, Narinder, works abroad and they talk often on the phone figuring out how they can live together. Though she is an ideal daughter-in-law and gets along with everyone at home and in the community, Jassi feels incomplete as she pines for her husband and it is revealed that she and Varinder are having an affair for some time and are deeply in love. Hidden from Beeji, they secretly spend nights together knowing fully well the risk of their relationship.
Soon, Beeji receives a marriage proposal for Varinder and despite his unwillingness, Varinder agrees after Jassi convinces him that this can give their affair an added layer of protection. Jassi discovers she has gotten pregnant and in a state of panic, she and Varinder visit a hospital so she can get an abortion. Witnessed by Varinder's fiancé Nimmi, Jassi and Varinder manage to explain the situation but the wedding is called off. Jassi then decides to find Varinder a match and he is married to the soft-spoken and young Channi.
Now married, Varinder starts caring for chaani, but for how long can it last. Varinder and Jassi's relationship goes through a new phase as Beeji soon discovers their affair.
