I'm sorry if my reply here comes across as rude but I'm actually completely shocked that I've just read that "physical abuse is acceptable" I don't think you can even begin to understand what sort of thing you've just said. Ask someone who's had a family member go through domestic abuse and please think carefully before you make such comments.

What if this character was your sister? I know that she is wrong, completely and utterly but under no circumstances should a wife get slapped for a mistake regardless of how irresponsible it is She wasn't trying to murder Sudhir on purpose. Karthik can ask her to leave the house, he can shout and yell, hell I'd support him even if he divorced her for it because I honestly didn't get what he saw in her in the first place but physical abuse is just simply wrong, whether you look at religiously, culturally or by law.

This is the kind of attitude that promotes domestic abuse and makes people think a slap here and there is fine, only a slap here and there is never really contained to that in real life. This attitude is what blackens our society to this date and honestly this has struck me hard personally... I don't even know what else to say to that

Guys, you are misunderstanding me. I'm not saying physical abuse is acceptable. It absolutely is not.

But I'm also saying Kartik's reaction in that moment to the situation is acceptable, and that just happened to be a slap. He just found out that his dad could potentially die because his wife took responsibility of him and then forgot about it. His reaction is not entirely wrong. It was a spur of the moment reaction and i'm sure the majority of us would have reacted in the same way. Natasha also has a history of carelessness and mistakes. This would have been the final draw for Kartik because now we're down to a life/death situation.

I'm sorry if it came out the wrong way.

I understand what you are trying to say Amber,but even in a life and death situation ,is the slap going to change the dynamics of the situation. that to let it get worse between the partners. It s important for both partners to have a sense of control to not resort to hitting. I would think a t the least a marriage deserves that much.

I know what you're trying to say too and I completely agree that it's not going to change the dynamics of the situation but no one thinks of that when they're angry. No one analyses the situation before they react to it. Which is why i understand why he did it. And neither one of them is mature or sensible enough to think about what the consequence of their actions might be.
