Meri moma Maya Sarabhai, yaani ishwar ki di hui badhaai
Ishwar ki samjhaai hui sachaai, ki duniya maaya se hi bani banaai
Sab kuch hai maaya, yeh sofa yeh kaaya
Ishwar ne table-cloth bhi hai maaya se banaaya 
 Rista bhi maaya, raasta bhi maaya, lunch dinner aur breakfast bhi maaya 
Maya to sophistication ka pratik hai, thodi contemporary thodi antique hai
Maya to hai mamta ka chhaya, sara pyaar aata always via maaya
Maaya hai jeevan ki preyasi, Maya hai jaise dining table ki kursi
Maaya hi dudh, Maya hi lassi, phir kaise kahu ki maaya chal basi?

Sarabhai vs Sarabhai will air from May 16, 2017

The Indian Television has en-number of shows. But one show that created not just episodes but memories for a lifetime was Sarabhai vs Sarabhai. The show, which aired first in 2004 and ended in 2006, is now back to enthral the audience, in the form of a web series.

Though the date was not out, it was known earlier that the show was to be aired in May.  And now here's some good news.  A little birdie revealed that the show is all set to kickstart on May 16, 2017. Not just that, the home channel too revealed the date in the form of an advertisement. We spoke to the maker of the show JD Majethia who neither confirmed or denoed the news. "Well, I haven't received any confirmation from the home channel's end as of now but you can definitely consider it to be the tentative date."

Directed by J.D. Majethia and produced by Aatish Kapadia, Sarabhai vs Sarabhai stars Ratna Pathak Shah, Satish Shah, Sumeet Raghavan, Rupali Ganguly, Rajesh Kumar, Deven Bhojani, Arvind Vaidya among others.  Interestingly, on the first day of the shoot, makers of Sarabhai vs Sarabhai 2 had conducted a Facebook Live in which they introduced their set, the characters and also mentioned that the show has taken a leap of seven years. A character in the form of Sahil and Monisha's son has marked his entry in the new season.  The first look and the on-location shoot of Sarabhai vs Sarabhai 2 have already excited the audience and they can barely wait to see their favourite serial. While there is still time for the new season to go on air, a new promo of the cast was unveiled on the web a month ago, and it made us literally roll on the floor, laughing! In the new promo, Maya Sarabhai was seen discussing with her family about the title of the show.

We absolutely loved the promo. With just three weeks more to go, the countdown begins!
