Ashwini Yardi’s new show, Waaris is set in the rural hinterland. It talks about two warring clans, the Pawanias and Bajwas. We are introduced to a stressed Amba Pawania (Aarti Singh), who is pregnant for the third time.
She already has two daughters and is dreading the thought of having a third daughter. Family members and neighbors take continuous jibes at her for not being able to produce a male heir.
Her husband, Charan Pawania (Iqbal Khan) is okay with having daughters. However, he also believes that a male heir is necessary to retain peace and power. He is a hard-working, peace-loving and religious farmer.
