Subarnalata was a Bengali TV Series originally aired on Zee Bangla in 2010, which was based on the second part of the book trilogy by Ashapoorna Devi of the same name. During the lock-down imposed in Mar 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic, all shooting at sets was shut. Following huge audience request, Subarnalata was re-telecast.[1][2]
Plot
Subarnalata[3] chronicles the life and times of Subarno who is brought up in a progressive household by her mother Satyabati, by enrolling her to Bethune School and imparting in her a deep sense of love for the motherland and respect for the freedom fighters who fought the British. However, Subarno is tricked into marrying at the tender age of 9 into an orthodox family. The marriage is held against Satyabati's wishes and her knowledge by her mother-in-law and Subarno's grandmother, Elokeshi. The incident prompts Satyabati to not acknowledge the marriage in front of Subarno's inlaws. Satyabati's reaction infuriates the in-laws of Subarno, that forms the crux of the treatment meted out to Subarno in later days.
The plot mainly revolves around the pathetic circumstances and oppression women of that era were subjected to in orthodox families, who had no voices of their own. Subarno, a strong headed courageous but kind and generous woman, defies all the brutalities of her husband, Prabodh, a hot headed orthodox man, who is unable to accept his beautiful wife's progressive thoughts and is always suspicious of her noble intentions. Subarno's kindhearted ways are supported by her eldest brother-in-law Subodh, and elder sister-in-law Susheel and her open-minded husband Kedar babu.She forges a strong bond with her youngest sister-in-law,Raju (Biraaj) who though dislikes Subarno in the initial days after Subarno's entry in the family, but grows fond of her gradually.
The show presents Subarno's realization that to bring about a change, one does not need to wield a weapon like the revolutionaries fighting the British in India but by trying to gradually peel off the harmful traditions by staying within the same society. It documents her daily struggles and turmoils to win the little victories with her perseverance, courage and intelligence and the hardships that she has to go through to achieve them.
