Nimki Mukhiya

Nimki Mukhiya is an Indian drama television which premiered on 28 August 2017 on Star Bharat.

Produced by Zama Habib, it stars Bhumika Gurung Malhotra and Abhishek Sharma.

Tunney is aware that Rituraj rapes Sweety daily, but keeps mum to reunite Ahimanyu and Nimki.

She organises a fashion show in the village to raise funds for development, but Tetar and Babbu are opposed.

To avenge his father's insult, during the fashion show Babbu rapes Nimki.

Babbu saves his sister Sweety from being raped by Rituraj, then realises his mistake and asks Nimki's forgiveness.

Seeing his changed behaviour, she forgives him and moves back into the mansion with him upsetting her family members.

Nimki decides to support Babbu to teach him lesson for his wrongdoing but she doesn't want to involve her family members in this fight therefore she maintains a distance from them, further disappointing them.

To free Sweety from Rituraaj, Nimki suggests to Babbu to contest the election.

Just then, Sweety tells the crowd of villagers not to vote for Tater Singh and that he is not fit to be called a human and beats Rituraaj in front of everyone.

She then shows a recorded video in which Rituraaj suggested to Babbu to accept Nimki as it was the only way to win the MLA seat and go against his own family.

The more he defied his family, the more voters trusted him and his chances of him winning the MLA election would increase.

Nimki remembers all the previous things but she wears her glasses to hide her pain and walks away.

When I tried to find out more, I realised the woman had become the mukhiya (village chief) thanks to the reservation but she still carried on with her household chores, while her husband managed her official work.

That intrigued me to write a story on how we as humans are sometimes not ready to embrace power or responsibilities.Following the launch of Nimki Vidhayak, The Print praised the series stating, "The TV serial was a realistic portrayal of caste, class and gender politics in rural India, exposing the deep socio-cultural fissures that still run through the heart of the country.

[3] In February 2020, The Print again praised the series along with Nimki's character by stating, " For two years Nimki Mukhiya, the show and the character, have stood out in a cast of TV shows that feature a galaxy of young women characters overdressed and under-employed who inhabit huge, hollow mansions and spend entire episodes fighting with other women just like them over men who are equally overdressed and under-employed".
