There seems to be a race to give longer and longer titles to the TV staple- soaps and family dramas- on Indian TV. At this rate, someone may decide to compete for the Guinness Book with the longest title ever for a TV soap. Sample some of these-a delightful mix of the real and fictitious-
Yeh rishta kya kehlata hai
Bade acchhe lagte hain
Kya ghar lautegi meri banno?
Ek hazaaron mein meri behna hai
Pyaar ka dard hai meetha meetha pyara pyara
I can suggest a few more that will follow this trend of copying from lyrics of older films-
Ghunghru ki tarah bajta hi raha hoon main...
Yeh kya hua, kaise hua, kab hua, kyun hua, jab hua...etc..
Hum jab honge saath saal ke aur tum hogi pachpan ki, bolo preet nibhaogi na tab bhi apne bachpan ki...
Hamare siwa tumhare aur kitne deewane hain?
Gum hai kisike pyaar mein dil subah shaam
Tere ghar ke saamne ek ghar banaunga
Aapko pehle bhi kahin dekha hai
Paon chhoo lene do phoolon ko inaayat hogi
You get the drift (this is not a title)...
