Yogesh Ishwarlal Patel (Mohan Gokhale), a.k.a Mr. Yogi, returns from America, to find himself an Indian wife and meets 12 prospective brides over the course of the show. Unfortunately there’s something or the other that goes wrong. Say, a girl being taller than Mr. Yogi. Om Puri narrated the show and in his narrative, makes fun of the tribulations of our hero. Mr. Yogi gets his own back when he finally meets the girl of his dreams, who also happens to be the daughter of the narrator.
7. Wagle Ki Duniya (1988)
R K Laxman’s common man found himself on the telly in the form of Srinivas Wagle, a bumbling sales clerk in Wagle Ki Duniya. Laxman also narrated the show and created all the characters. Anjan Srivastav and Bharati Achrekar are brilliant as Srinivas and Radhika Wagle. Some memorable episodes include the one where he’s conned into buying a bad car and another where he does the rounds of the licensing officer.
