Ever since the reports have come out that a show is under making based on the love story of Madhubala and Dilip Kumar and now that everything is final about it, everyone is thrilled waiting for it to hit the television screens soon.

Madhubala-Ek Ishq Ek Junoon on Colors TV is touted as one of the biggest shows even before it makes its debut on 28th May 2012. With a stellar star cast comprising of Drashti Dhami and Vivian Dsena, Madhubala-Ek Ishq Ek Junoon looks larger than life. For those curious to know what the hype and excitement is all about, here we come up with an exclusive update on the show's first episode. This episode opens with a shooting sequence where Balraj Chaudhary (Raj Zutshi) is practicing his skills on his own daughter Trishna.

Set in Motihari, Bihar, Balraj balances an apple on Trishna's head who then runs to her mother Padmini (Pallavi Purohit), who is Balraj's second wife and is seven months pregnant. Balraj's mother Ammaji (Shagufta Ali) calls up Guruji to predict her son's future. Guruji (Lalit Parimoo) tells Ammaji that if Padmini delivers a baby boy, then Balraj will flourish but if a baby girl is born, he will perish!

Ammaji then spares no efforts and calls for Badi Dai who predicts that Balraj and Padmini will have a baby boy. Both Balraj and Ammaji are very happy with the news and call for a celebration while Padmini secretly escapes from there and makes her way to Mumbai.

But why does Padmini escape to Mumbai? Is she hiding a secret?
