ways there before these mindless crimes are committed.

Instincts/Feelings/Signals that so often tell us that not everything is normal.

‘Alaxmi – Hamari Super Bahu’ is the story of a girl Laxmi who is rechris-

tened as Alaxmi by the villagers, for she is a walking-talking riot, de-

structive and absolutely ludicrous in her way of life. Her bizarre antics

are the perfect antidote to the bickering Kapadia family where she is

married off to turn the house of six sons and daughter-in-laws into a

peace-loving home!
