Imagine TV is on a show-launching spree. Soon after Shaadi 3 Crore Ki came the historical Chandragupta Maurya. Now towards the end of this month,Imagine is launching a social drama Looteri Dulhan,the promos of which are on air.

Looteri Dulhan,according to sources,is about a gang which cons men aged 60-plus into marrying a young girl,from the gang and loot the unsuspecting bridegrooms of all their wealth. Such gangs apparently operate in North India,especially Haryana.

This show will be followed by another new show,Beend Banunga Ghodi Chadunga,about a young medico girl being married into a traditional Rajasthani family which follows the age-old gender practices where the role of men and women are clearly defined.
