Binni Dhaner Khoi (transl. Puffed Rice of Binni Dhan) is a Bengali television soap that premiered on 31 August 2009 and initially aired Monday to Saturday at 8:30 PM IST on ETV Bangla. It was produced by Magic Moments Motion Pictures and was the first serial to be made by the production company. The serial starred Monami Ghosh[2] in the lead role of Mohor, Ankita Chakraborty as Mohor's sister, Gini and Manoj Ojha as Rohon, Mohor's first husband. Later on, Ghosh also portrayed Lin, Mohor and Ani's grown-up daughter. The show also starred Debottam Majumdar, Anusuya Majumdar, Rita Koyral, Sudipta Chakraborty (later replaced by Sohini Sanyal) and Diganta Bagchi in prominent supporting roles.
The show, that had been penned down by Leena Gangopadhyay, dealt with the heart-touching story of Mohor, a simple village girl having high intellect and a kind heart, who married the modern-day city boy Rohon, and how their relationship worked in the initial phase, and how after many misunderstandings and separation, Rohon realized his love for Mohor. However, Mohor didn't return to him and chose to love Rohon and keep his memory in her mind, but remained separated from him for lifelong. The show also encompassed how Mohor fulfilled her aspirations by becoming a doctor, and served the diseased people with all her effort and dedication, in her humanitarian profession. Later, the series showed how Mohor reunited with her estranged (long-lost) daughter, Lin; completing the heartfelt story of her life-journey.
Its time slot has varied over the years, first airing at 8:30 PM, then at the 8:45 PM time slot and finally at 9:00 PM IST. The show went off air in 16 March 2013, getting replaced by Jhalak Dikhla Ja Bangla. It is the second longest running among all the serials produced by Magic Moments Motion Pictures, only being shorter than Ishti Kutum.
