Real Life scenario:

I have started loving this serial … This serial is close to reality.There are many people like priya…in society.. who are struggling..

One of my close friend, She is physically disabled (slightly polio affected)… She can walk and do her work independently… she became Engineer and working with reputed company in india…

When her parents started searching match for her.. (her parents were specific about caste…) they couldn't get a match in their community since my friend is highly educated…some people rejected her.. Even her parents tried to lie about her age.. my friend opposed it..

They also got few profiles where the guy is not educated and not working… my friend did not agree to marry them… finally her parents decided that her elder brother (one year elder to her) will get marry first.. later she can marry a guy from out of community… Her brother got married and no body is bothered to search a match for her…
Her relatives are like shipra … her father is carefree.. who says he doesn't know anyone from other community… her mother blames god .. Finally no one is trying to search a groom for my friend.. she is 30 years old now. My friend is trying to search in Bharat matrimony and Shaddi.com (disabled profiles) still things are not working for her.. Her brother doesn't worry about her from day one.. PRIYA has such a lovely brother Karthik.. We are sure that priya will marry her prince charm RAM… but really not sure wht will happen to my friend…

I am happy that she is independent and earning… but… she too needs a life partner… I don't know how things will work out for her. I thank balaji for giving such a nice serial which is close to real life…

In india girls has to face a lot if they are not married.. Society will not allow her to lead her life…

It has become soo soo difficult to get a match…

Please share your opinion.. is there any solution for my friend's problem?

Hi Santosh_Priya

I started watching this serial from last week only on strong recommendation that the serial has picked up speed and is on track. It being an Ekta Kapoor's serial I was not ready to see the same nonsense that she dishes out to her audience. The idea of a mature love story was in itself very intriguing and I would love to see two of my favoruite actors playing the lead. But then the serial did not pick up well, I stayed away from it till last week.

I am loving the serial and the story so far like you. There are so many girls like Priya in our Indian society who are in their 30's and yet to find a life partner. They would say that they are enjoying their freedom or singlehood and I find no problem in being single. But being married, I find that there is nothing better than to share your life, your sorrows and joys with someone. In Indian society specially it is difficult for girls to stay single. I would like to give you few examples, one of my (male) students had polio but he married the girl he loved after finishing his MBBS. Then at that point I thought that may be it is in the girl to love so selflessly. But you would be amazed to know that a far off relative of mine also had polio. She too is an engineer, her elder brother married with kids, she refused to marry any Tom Dick or Harry that the relatives suggested. Rather she went on to do her masters and joined MNC. There she found her soulmate, a very good looking, intelligent and successful guy who proposed her. Her parents being conservative, initially were reluctant to his proposal as he was of different caste and they could not think that such a successful and good looking guy could propose to their physically challenged daughter, they had this suspicion that something was wrong somewhere. But all their doubts and suspicions were put to rest after meeting the guy and his family. Now they are happily married for more than two years.

So for your friend I would say, that she should not loose hope. There is someone somewhere for her too. It is for you friends to give her support and courage at this time. She will sure find her soulmate, it is only a matter of time.

Good luck to your friend
cheers
Shweta

Priya, like Shweta said I too wish you friend finds a life partner soon.
I hope and wish she finds someone by herself and a person who will marry her for what she is, if he happens to be physically normal toh kya kehna!! All the best, Tin

@ Santosh_Priya
Hoping your friend would meet her soulmate pretty soon. Getting married to the wrong guy is worse than remaining single. Sometimes the tunnel of life may seem long and lonesome but there is light at the end of it.
@ Clare
So happy your friend 's life had a positive ending. Happy endings always rejuvenates your soul.

I am not a regular viewer of this serial...but I do watch it on n off and I do appreciate the efforts of balaji to bring across to the viewers some real n true social issues our Indian society in general is facing.
However, when I came across ur post...there is this only 1 thing that came to my mind that I thot I shud mention and I do mean to say this in the positive aspects of it.
"The grass always looks greener at the opposite end"
If u have heard this...it basically says that sometimes wat u see is not wat is always true. Sometimes...being married is worse than being single coz instead of love n joy...u garner more pain and sorrows and recall the moments u were last happy. There are lots of women out there who are not happy with their married life but are thriving thru them under societal pressures n other obligations such as kids.
No I dont mean to discourage u or ur friend ...but wat I m trying to say is...things happens for a reason...and the reasons are always for the good and it may stress u now...make u burdened n confused now...but later...when u look back ...u will have the answers to ur "whys" now... and by this I only mean to convey to u and ur friend is..."Cling on to hope and hop on to God's boat" and let destiny take the worries...things will automatically fall into place...when its destined to!!!!!!😳😳
Best Wishes...

one of my friend faces the same thing and her own brothers and bhabhis have made her life worse. Her parents are old. She is pretty educated and good looking too but they never cared to find her a deserving suitor for her and wanted to marry her off to anyone they were suggested of,without even bothering abt inquiring abt the guy properly where as they married off their own children who were younger than her in very good families. She is not even allowed to do anything on her own and have made her life living hell. She is very depressed and is living only for her old and ailing parents. wish she finds someone she truly deserves.
