Mann Kee Awaaz Pratigya

Gouri Shankaram (transl. Gouri and Shankar) is an Indian Malayalam television series that aired from 3 July 2023 to 27 December 2024 on Asianet and streaming on Disney+ Hotstar.[1][2] The show is an official remake of the Hindi soap opera Mann Kee Awaaz Pratigya.[3] The title of the series is adapted from 2003 Malayalam film Gowrisankaram.[4] The story revolves around the life of Sankar Mahadevan (lord Siva devotee), love at first sight for Shankar when he encounters Gouri, an upright girl.[5]

Plot

The story revolves around the life of Lord Vadakkumnadha devotee Sankar (Sankar bhayi ) who unfortunately met with a girl named Gouri, a college girl whose life changes after she enters wedlock with her obsessive and die-hard lover, Sanker. Gouri is a girl of principles taught by her father, Shyam. Sanker, on the other hand, is opposite, always following his principles in life and being the master of his decisions. Sanker always confidant in his muscular body physique, and he always tries to win others with his extraordinary muscle power.

The show takes a new turn when Sanker falls head over heels for Gouri and makes all his efforts to make her his wife. Later, Gouri teaches him that the pure love of a girl cannot be bought with men's muscle power. The series shows the negative shades of stalking and forced marriage.[6][7] Actor Harisanker played the role of Sankar bhayi set a new trend for heroic charactrisation in malayalam serial.
