New TV Show ‘Doree’ Highlights Important Issue of Girl Child Abandonment
Newzdaddy Entertainment updates
In India, many people consider women as goddesses, but sadly, some parents abandon their baby girls because they believe that having a daughter won’t carry on the family name. According to a report from the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) in 2020, around 4.6 lakh (460,000) girls were not born in India every year between 2013 and 2017. This is a serious problem, and it’s because of old-fashioned thinking. But there’s hope for change.
A new TV show called ‘Doree’ is coming soon on COLORS, and it will tell a powerful story about the struggle of a girl who was abandoned as a baby and the fight for her rights in society. The show stars Sudhaa Chandran as Kailashi Devi Thakur, Amar Upadhyay as Ganga Prasad, and Mahi Bhanushali as Doree. It’s produced by Jay and Kinnari Mehtaa’s Jay Mehtaa Productions. ‘Doree’ premieres on November 6, 2023, and you can watch it from Monday to Friday at 9:00 PM on COLORS.
The show is set in Varanasi and deals with the important issue of girl-child abandonment. It follows the story of a six-year-old girl named Doree, who lives with her foster father, Ganga Prasad, in Bunkar Mohalla. She starts questioning why she was left by her biological parents. Ganga Prasad is happy to have a daughter, but Kailashi Devi Thakur, the ruler of Varanasi’s handloom business, thinks daughters are not valuable. In a world where discrimination is a big problem, will Doree be able to break free from these unfair beliefs?

Amar Upadhyay, who plays the role of Ganga Prasad, says, “I’m excited to be part of a show that talks about the old-fashioned idea of abandoning baby girls. My character is a dedicated father who wants the best for his daughter, even though he faces challenges because of a physical disability. It’s a matter of pride to work with COLORS again, and we hope that ‘Doree’ will start important conversations in society.”
Sudhaa Chandran, who plays Kailashi Devi Thakur, says, “I applaud COLORS for making a show like ‘Doree’ that brings attention to the issue of girl-child abandonment, which is still a problem in many parts of our country. Kailashi Devi holds onto old beliefs and runs her family’s handloom business. I’ve been part of many shows on the channel, and I’m happy to work with them again. I hope the audience will love this show just like my previous ones.”
Producers Jay Mehtaa and Kinnari Mehtaa say, “We are excited to present ‘Doree,‘ a show that tells a touching story of a father and daughter and how she fights for her rights against Kailashi Devi. Through ‘Doree,‘ we want to start important conversations about girl child abandonment, which is still a problem today. We look forward to working with COLORS, and we hope this thought-provoking show will bring positive change to society.
