Saas Bahu Aur Flamingo (transl. Mother-in-law, Daughter-in-law and Flamingo ) is a 2023 Indian Hindi-language crime drama web series created and directed by Homi Adajania. Produced under the banner of Maddock Films, the series premiered on on May 5, 2023. Unlike typical family dramas that the title playfully hints at, this show subverts expectations by placing a matriarchal drug empire at its center. The eight-episode first season immediately grabbed attention for its bold storytelling, vibrant visuals, and complex female characters.
As of now, Disney+ Hotstar has the show for a second season. However, the finale ends on a cliffhanger, and Homi Adajania hinted in an interview with Bollywood Hungama :
Set in the fictional, lawless borderlands of , the story follows a powerful matriarch, Savitri (also known as Rani Baa), who operates South Asia's largest drug cartel. To the outside world, she runs Rani Cooperative , a legitimate cottage industry making dolls and herbal products.
The story follows Savitri (Rani Baa), the formidable matriarch of a massive drug cartel operating in the lawless "Borderlands" under the guise of "Rani Cooperative," a handicrafts and herb business.
It is revealed that Kajal is the mole within the family. She betrayed Savitri as part of a revenge plot, believing Savitri had lied to her about the death of her newborn son.
