Indian Television serial Balika Vadhu touched the milestone by quoting its name on Limca Books of Records. Balika Vadhu records in the history as the longest running daily fiction soap in Hindi, with a run of over 2,000 episodes.

The show began by delving into the social issue of child marriages. It traced the life of young bride Anandi, whose life goes through ups and downs after she is married at a young age to Jagdish. Her trials and tribulations, and her fight against the social system forms the crux of the story, which has now moved to telling her the journey of her daughter Nandini.

Sunjoy Waddhwa, chief managing director, Sphere Origins said,  “We are very honoured and delighted that ‘Balika Vadhu’ has created a record for being the Longest Running Daily Soap and is featured in the ‘Limca Book of Records”.
