The Hilarious Sarabhai's

Sarabhai Vs Sarabhai has to be one of the best Indian comedy show. But what makes it elevated to an all new level are it's amazingly witty script and fine performances by all the lead actors. The Sarabhai's make one hell of family, where you find a father relish teasing his poet son, the mother-in-law who never misses an opportunity to have a GO at her untidy daughter-in-law and many more.

Sarabhai's are one of those sophisticated, high-class Mumbai families, living in a very posh apartment. Indravadan Sarabhai, the Father is a jolly fun loving fellow, who lit crackers under the chairs at his own marriage to have fun at the expense of his scared guests. Maya Sarabhai, a synonym for sophistication, who believes in doing everything with class, so much so that she renamed her daughter-in-law from Manisha to Monisha to help it not sound middle-class. Sahil Sarabhai, the first son to Sarabhai's is a cosmetic surgeon by profession, never-say-no-to-anyone-for-anything by nature. Rosesh Sarabhai, another son who is a perfect Momma's boy and a poet, theater artiste, whose roles could be that of Wind, with him making the noise of the wind in the entire play. Monisha Sarabhai, is a middle class Punjabi girl and Sahil's love turned wife, who doesn't mind feeding expired cookies too. Sonya, is the only daughter to Sarabhai's and is deeply into tarots, she is always called for to find the missing. Dushyant is Sonya's husband and a BIG time Gadget Freak, who demonstrates their working using humans, mostly his mother-in-law.

With a family as diverse and mad as this, one is in for a roller-coaster. It's being replayed on Star-One everyday at 21.30 Hrs. A Must Watch!!
