Mere Sai - Shraddha Aur Saburi (English: My Sai - Faith And Patience) is an Indian Hindi-language historical drama television series which aired on Sony Entertainment Television from 25 September 2017 to 7 July 2023. It starred Abeer Soofi initially from 2017-2019 and later on Tushar Dalvi from 2019-2023 in the lead role along with Kishori Godbole, Vaibhav Mangle in supporting roles.[2][3][4] The show traces the journey of Sai Baba of Shirdi, a fakir who after witnessing the injustices due to religious and caste discrimination, faces several trials and tribulations on his journey to bring peace and love to the society.

Plot

The show broadly covers the life and teachings of Sai Baba of Shirdi, a 19th-century healer and spiritual leader who resides in the village of Shirdi in modern-day Maharashtra. Through his numerous acts of kindness, honesty, compassion, and nonviolence, he helps the people of Shirdi overcome their struggles by emphasizing values such as righteousness, humility, forgiveness, faith, and patience.

The show gently tackles various sociopolitical issues of the time while Sai Baba reforms egotistic individuals who initially hate him and his teachings. He shows them the path of Dharma and restores their faith in God.
