OFFICE OFFICE which premiered on Sab TV in the year 2001 is
still one of the most popular comedy serial.The Bollywood actor,Pankaj Kapoor
played the role of Mussadilal,a common man who has to deal with the rampant
corruption which is prevalent in most of the government offices,be it post
office,policestation,bank or insurance companies.
This serial portrayed a number of interesting and realistic
characters we are likely to find in offices.
UshaMadam,Pandeyji,Bhatia and Patel Sahib are the characters
that you must have encountered atleast once in your life.
The role of Mr. Bhatia was superbly essayed by the talented
actor,ManojPahwa whose life revolves only around eating food and no amount of
urgency can compel him to leave his food and address people’s grievances.
Mrs.Usha is the only female character who works in the
office.Bywork,we don’t mean office work.We mean the household chores she does
in office-from peeling vegetables to knitting sweaters and the worse part comes
when she makes other people do this work too who want to get their work done.
Another fascinating colleague is Mr.Patel.If any client
talks to him and doesn’t bribe him,he has just one dialogue to say –“ Do
baateinhojayengi”.
The script for each episode is different and is very well
written.The verbal banter is rib tickling yet so realistic.The cast comprises
of various competent actors who do justice to their roles by enacting their
roles realistically with dead pan expressions,witty dialogues and correctly
portray a “don’t care attitude”.
The problems of red tapism,the lethargic attitude of govt.
officials and the resultant harassement a common man has to face has been
portrayed very convincingly and in an extremely humourous manner.
With a commendable script,a strong storyline and effective
actors,the show is one of a kind and definitely worth watching.
The show was such a huge success among the audiences that it
was adapted into a movie called “ChalaMusaddi Office office”
Till Date “Office office” remains one of the most popular and
unique shows ever created in the history of Indian televisions which uses funny
mockery to highlight the prevailing corruption in India.
Mr.Pankaj Kapoor also bagged numerous awards for his praise
worthy performance in the TV Series.
