Aur kaun?

Along with Rakhi Sawant and Elesh Parujanwala, the other jodis include Juhi Parmar and Sachin Shroff, Shilpa Saklani and Apoorva Agnihotri, Mouni Roy and Gaurav Chopraa and Debina Bonnerjee and Gurmeet Chaudhary.
The jodis will hunt for their living spaces, do real time jobs and gather money. Along with this, they also need to fulfil social obligations like entertaining relatives, in-laws, guests, going to parties, conducting picnics and above all see that 'their' child has finished the homework.

There are 21 episodes in all, with no eliminations. Which means there will be no winners or losers.
The children taking part in the show are real-life infants, toddlers, pre-teens and teenagers. Their parents will be behind the scenes and will monitor their kids.
