Bani – Ishq Da Kalma is an Indian television drama series that premiered on March 18, 2013, on Colors. The series was originally titled Gurbani, which means the composition of the Sikh Gurus. The title of the series was changed after several concerns were reported by Sikh organizations, including the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee. The team completed 100 episodes on August 2, 2013. The story is set against the backdrop of Punjab and revolves around Bani, a young woman whose life is ruled by her mother's ambitions. The mother, Desho, dreams of getting Bani married to an expatriate or Non-Resident Indian man. For twenty-two years, there has been a division in Bani's family—between her father Sarabjit and his brother Nirvail. Despite this, Bani and Nirvail's daughter Rajji are the best of friends. Although Bani respects Desho's wishes, she is not too keen on marrying an NRI. Rajji is aware of this.
