Many female viewers can easily identify themselves with such a situation inside their husbands\u2019 families, and we hope that this common experience will glue them to TV sets.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" LNK in Lithuania is set to premiere the Indian drama Saath Nibhana Sathiya (Stand By My Side) this month following a deal with Intellecta.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":290,"featured_media":8023,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[1924,1998,1713],"class_list":["post-8021","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-intellecta","tag-lnk","tag-star-india","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"\n
