Story at a glance:

The Deshmukh family lives together in ‘Ashray' an old house in Mumbai. The patriarch of the family Anna (Sudhir Joshi) is an ex-freedom fighter and likes to write letters to the editor demanding a ban on nuclear weapons. His wife Mai (Prema Sakhardande) is a loving woman and is like a mother to her daughters-in-law. Their eldest son Prabhakar (Sanjay Mone) and his wife (Suhas Joshi) have three children - Prashant (Sunil Barve), Anand (Bharat Jadhav) and Alka. Their younger son Bal (Bal Karve) and his wife Shalini (Amita Khopkar) have two daughters -Latika and Kalika.

The family is close knit and bound together by values. However, minor differences do occur. One point of discussion in the house is whether they should sell the old house and make way for a tower where they can all be accommodated in separate flats. Living in a joint family the younger generation is always pampered and protected which they feel is a real obstacle in their growth process when facing the harsh realities of the outside world. Each has a unique mindset & are eager to explore the abundance of experiences outside their sheltered nest. But despite their idealogies how they stand by their family & each other in the times of crisis is the essence of the story.

The serial is written & directed by Pratima Kulkarni. One easily identifies with some or the other character of the Deshmukh family. The fun moments shared by the family members, the support they receive from each other & their unity in times of need is endearing to one & all!


About Sunil's Character :

Prashant Deshmukh is the eldest in the younger generation. He is intelligent & works for a finance company. Although fascinated by wealth & prestige symbols, he refrains from getting involved in a financial scam purely on the basis of his moral values. He values the ancestral property, but being practical he understands the necessity to have a new building in place of the old house as he realises the need for privacy n space.


'Prapancha' is currently being retelecast on Zee Marathi. For those of you who missed it earlier, you can watch Prapancha every Wed, Thurs & Fri at 10.30pm on Zee Marathi.

Rahul Chemburkar

it is more than just a favorite serial for me.when it was first telecast on television,i must have been of almost the same age of Prashant deshmukh.
the serial has given me a lot in terms of moral,social values...it gave a very rational outlook .i being a conservation architect...i used to consider even the house as a character.i am glad it has returned back to my life after so many years due to the re telecast. and there r know words to express the depth and wordings of the title score..so intensly rendered by Ravindra Sathe...this serial stands out in the current ongoing serials.

The best serial of all... I don't know why this serial ended? Can you start it over again? It was my most favourite serial and I started considering myself a part of "deshmukh" family... All actors were very lively and original in their acting... I request directors and actors of "Prapanch" to start the serial again...

Best serial ever...Period.

It was one of the Serial which you could enjoy with your family. Same like Gangadhar Tipre. It taught how to respect the elders and how important their role in our life when you face the critical situations. Advantage of joint family over nuclear family. How important your cousins are and how important role of your siblings plays. Now days hardly you can see such family environment.After 20 Years also serial gives the same pleasure. Sudhir Joshi will always remain in heart with his natural acting ,Sharvari & sonali both played thier role, Nandu no one can forget him, Sanjay mone and Suhas Joshi all time favorite.....rather than wacthing those bore serials of Ekta kapoors ..this Serial is really a stress release .......!!!!!!

The sereneness of this serial is what makes it apart from all other serials.

Prapancha is available on YouTube now. It is a great serial to learn our Marathi value systems and how to live a meaningful family life.

Thank you so much for making this serial.
