6 Things That Prove Deepika Singh a.k.a Sandhya Bindhani Of Diya Aur Baati Hum Was A Superhero In Disguise
One of the most popular shows of Star Plus has been the Deepika Singh and Anas Rashid starrer Diya Aur Baati Hum. When it started airing on Star Plus in 2011 the story of a girl who aspires to become an IPS officer while struggling with her responsibilities as the daughter-in-law of a traditional Marwari family in Pushkar, captured the imagination of many.
But while we were busy feasting our eyes on the day to days antics of Sandhya Bindhani and Bhabho, we completely missed out on the fact that Sandhya Bindhani was a superhero. Don’t believe us? Remember these incidents from the show that will confirm that Sandhya Bindhani was a superhero but we all fail to realize it, until now!
She Has Saved The Nation From Countless Terrorist Attacks
Sandhya’s character in the show was that of an IPS officer, but unlike other IPS officers, she was not wasting her time chasing corrupt politicians. Sandhya Bindhani dreamt big and in the initial days of career itself, she was saving the nation from terrorists. That too not once, but several times, just like superheroes do, you know.
She Could Change Her Avatar Whenever She Wanted
We all know Mystique from X-Men who can change her avatar whenever she wanted, but have you ever stopped to think that Sandhya Bindhani was our very own mystique. She has changed her avatar in the show for more than 18 times, if that is not being a superhero then we do not know what is.
She Jumped From A Height Of 15000 Feet
So one of the salient features of most superheroes is the fact that they can fly and our Sandhya Bindhani isn’t any different from them. During her training, she is made to jump from a distance of 15000 feet that too with a faulty parachute that refuses to open in the mid-air. But sweat not, Bindani makes it to earth completely unharmed and her hair in place.
She Can Stand On A Raft And It Flows Automatically
Rowing a raft to make it move is for mere mortals like us. When Sandhya Bindhani hugs his hubby on raft it moves automatically, how you ask? Some could say ‘jadooo’ but we say superpowers.
She Could Perform Stunts In A Saree
This is one thing that most Indian women would agree to be Sandhya’s superpower. Forget fighting most delicate darlings can’t even walk without stumbling in a saree, but Sandhya Bindhani could kick some ass draped in gorgeous leheriya printed numbers and sometimes even with her pallu. You go girl!
She Passed The UPSC Exam In The First Attempt
This surely makes her a superhero for all the UPSC aspirants in the country, if not for anyone else. For an exam that most people do not even clear in the fifth attempt and after burying their head in the book for all their, Sandhya manages to pass even after being surrounded by a family that loves drama more Sooraj loved his ladoos.
