The fusion of Indian rituals and television shows has proven to be a successful combination, with many series centered around various traditions. However, one ritual that has been under the carpet is Gauna – a significant Hindu ritual that encompasses the consummation of marriage, still observed in the corners of India. Now, Shemaroo Umang has taken the baton to shed light on the subject with its upcoming show Gauna Ek Pratha. The family drama starring Krutika Desai as Gehna, Rohit Purohit as Gaurav, and Pravati Sehgal as Urvashi in the lead role premiered on 10th July 2023 at 9.30 pm.
Producer Yash Patnaik (Inspire Films) says, "Gauna Ek Pratha is an interesting show we have created for Shemaroo Umang, keeping in mind the market it caters to. It’s a beautiful story set against the backdrop of Bihar. Gehna, played by Krutika Desai, Gaurav played by Rohit Purohit and Urvashi played by Parvati Sehgal represent different emotions and objectives.
