Review:
Finally we got something interesting on our screens, This drama focuses on the female education system in villages, and they raise the issue of birth control, the carelessness of doctors handling maternity cases and behaviour based on gender treatment within a household. The rooster fight is a general practice in villages and the director rightly added this science to the story. The difference between rural and city settings is done perfectly so that nothing feels out of place or overdone. Meenu’s books, bicycle, torn sleepers, and her effort to attend college are commendable. On the other side, Dr Nofil tries to find the mobile signal in the village and how he is threatened in the city hospital for raising his voice for justice. This theme winded in the story in a very light-hearted manner. Love the chemistry between Meenu and Roshaan. All the characters are very toned and formed well.

Will Meenu ever be able to complete her education? Will Dr Nofil be able to revive the medical system in Kesar Kallan?
