MUMBAI: What better way to propagate a social message than by weaving and blending it into the storyline of a popular primetime serial? More and more TV channels and NGOs seem to be walking the path hand in hand.
Star Plus in its effort to reach out for a good cause — be it the importance of child education, helping the old and the needy or administering ORS (Oral Rehydration Salts) as a solution for child diarrhoea – is going to do exactly this in Sanjivani-A medical boon.
In the forthcoming episode of Sanjivani-A medical boon, the doctors at the hospital have to save an infant who has been rushed there with severe dehydration. The parents, who have been separated, are devastated when they find out that their baby is very ill and something as serious as this brings them together. Dr Smriti, the doctor at Sanjivani, explains how to make this simple solution and also how it is effective for the babies.
The simple message on administering ORS in the forthcoming episode coincides with the World Health Organisation’s ORS Day, says an official release.
A similar social message was also done sometime ago on Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, where Ba, the protagonist from the older generation, explains how to administer ORS to infants.
