What an interesting discussion has been started.
Just pause for a moment and think that the characters are just playing their part what Mr Sinha is telling them to do! I find a great flaw in Mr Sinha's poor characterisatrion of Simran which has left such a bad taste. She is shown to be indulging in all sorts of lies (which are bound to be caught) without realising the repurcussions. In Sydney we are one week behind and I find it repulsive that she has been depicted as belatant lier when responding the genuine concerns of even her FATHER leave alone Astha, Sid or Urmila. A simple viewer would start hating such a belatant lier leave alone poor Astha! I think in real life I would perhaps distance myself with such a human being who is setting such a wrong example for her family "in the name of protecting family's unity'
- what rubbish you are churning out Mr Sinha?
Sorry for my outburst - but please be more constructive in your discussions. Do not tolerate all the rubbish Mr Sinha dumps on you.
