When fate decides to test Mangal, it does not do so quietly. Colors’ Mangal Lakshmi is all set to take viewers far beyond familiar lanes and into an international chapter that promises danger, courage, and emotional reckoning. For the first time, Mangal’s (Deepika Singh) journey unfolds on foreign soil as she wins a prestigious Pehla Swaad competition that takes her to Georgia. What begins as a celebratory milestone soon spirals into a tense turn of events that no one sees coming. On shooting abroad, Deepika Singh says, “Mangal Lakshmi has been a journey built on love, patience, and resilience, and the audience has stood by us through every phase. We have cried together, healed together, and celebrated every small victory. Shooting in Georgia feels like a reward for that shared journey. Very few shows get the opportunity to go international, and I feel incredibly grateful that our story has earned that trust and scale.”
