Generation Leaps seem to be fast becoming the norm on television with an increasing number of weekly and daily shows going for "fast forward" leap in a bid to keep the audience interest alive.

Beginning this Wednesday, Kahani Ghar Ghar Ki, one of the most popular prime time soaps on television, has taken another 18-year leap, following close on the heels of close on the heels of Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, Kasauti Zindagi Ki, Des Mein Nikla Hoga Chand and Kum Kum.

A unique feature of the post-generation leap Kahani Ghar Ghar Ki will be a "never-before-seen avatar" donned by the central character of Parvati Bhabhi.

In the post-leap phase, Parvati, played by TV actor Sakshi Tanwar, dons a modern garb with her wardrobe, her style and her appearance being designed by none other that Bollywood's famous fashion designer Manish Malhotra.

This is the first time that the celebrated fashion designer has associated himself with designing the wardrobe for a television serial or character.

According to the story of the show post-generation leap, Parvati, after spending many years in jail on charges of murder of Krishna and her husband Om and thereafter several years in Benares, comes back to Mumbai. Parvati, who has always been the Sita, now takes on the teachings of the Bhagwad Gita as she prepares to fight her own to win back her own.

Apno ke liye, apno ke khilaf. It is a side of Parvati that one has never seen before, as she dons a modern persona, who will employ every means to defeat her enemies.

Post-generation leap, Kahani Ghar Ghar Ki will witness the entry of four new characters representing the Generation Next.

Entering the family of Kahani Ghar Ghar Ki will be four new characters Mythili, Pragati, Sanskar and Adi.

While Sanskar is the son of Parvati's daughter Shruti, Mythili is the daughter of Parvati's accountant, Adi is Shikhar's son and Pragati is the daughter of Gunn.
