Finally saw the episode!!

Aman is that spoil-sport kid hotein hain Na school mein. Lol. Always complaining to the teacher to get a good name. Waise guts hain.. He met them for five mins and asks for a favor. And what tactics. Goes about putting Meera down n then g going on about his transfer thing. You know like they'll be doing this favor not for him but for their daughter.

Waise I didn't understand dadi?? Did she decide on abhi Radhika marriage just hearing that Meera considered Abhishek her friend?? MATLAB if she didn't hear this conversation she would have decided otherwise?

Raizadas need a next post.

I went back n saw the episode where the raizadas decided on Meera's marriage. Just to see if their reaction has been consistent.

Rhea seems to be the same. She was worried about her image then too. She was like kya karengein log " Rhea ki behen 32%. Humari kuch image hai is society mein." Yes she was not too happy with how Meera's decided to get married. So I'm not really surprised whenever she supports Aman.

Mother- raizada.. She is neutral per say. She is worried about Meera. She suggests Meera join her friend's interior business. So that way she at least if atuned to what Meera is good at. She is the one who suggests Meera her married. Her reason- she herself was not focused in life before her marriage but changed for better after marriage. So marriage might do Meera good too.

Papa raizada- he had anyways been disappointed with Meera. He doesn't want to become an IAS but surely wants her to achieve something in life not just 'khush rehana chahati hoon funds. So is convinced with Mama raizada 's theory.

So they seem to be same now. Rhea is still society conscious. Mommy still thinks about Meera to some extent. Papa shows his disappointment. They aren't that bad.but they've always done what they think is good for Meera n not what based on her perspective. I'm saying allk this coz I read a discussion where it said they changed the raizada s to suit the story. Did I miss some episode??

Meera like I said never thinks about consequences. It made her parents happy so she went ahead with the marriage.

I would have liked if they had left it at raizadas being appalled at Aman's behavior rather than suggesting the sifarish thing. It would had a good basis if at least they showed them assuming Meera is happy with this alliance n so they've to go ahead with this rather than marriage being the only way

@V- That behaviour wasn't out of ordinary. A lot of normal people or parents do talk when their kids flunk twice especially in India. It wasn't out of order . Riya wasn't wrong with how Meera decided to get married because neither do i think meera is ready for marriage nor has she given it any thought. Riya has problems with Meera's immaturity then which i cannot deny but what they have made her to be is as a meek, irritant who keeps on overlooking Aman type things

The fact that they do talk, sit and discuss her issues rather than overlooking something like abuse is what they flipped. Honestly, you tell me how would any average parent would react when a child says , "I just want to be happy". With no education security, financial security ..etc, how would a family react. I thought the whole exchange was normal. Meera has done zillion short-courses on her whim, if her family wasn't indulgent how would she be able to do them. Meera then mused too that everytime she failed, her family would sit and discuss- where is that now?

When Meera mentioned how she just wants to be happy , her father was more amused. At the end , shaadi was consented by Meera..it wasn't something her family forced her into. She picked a random idea and decided on it. Why did she not think of interior designing or other whim - she did reject them, even though her family would have been okay with that too . So for me, marriage was something she willingly picked for herself

A man who is proud of his post, Sr. Raizada , why would he settle for an abusive son-in-law.

The problem is earlier you could rationalize Raizadas' reaction. As much as awful it sounds for Meera , dealing with her failures can be daunting especially when she fails to wake up for her result or there is a big question mark about what next for her. It seemed to come from a place of care which average parent seem to share.

But now that rationality from their actions is gone. A father overlooking abuse just because he wants to see her settled- that coming from a progressive family where the wife completely education after marriage or the other daughter is IAS. Riya pushing her sister into an abusive shaadi- thats the flip.

@Genie/Vibha: I was going to reply to this point earlier but the pages were moving too fast to catch up.

I agree with Vibha's point that there haven't been any drastic changes vis a vis the Raizada's characterization...if we go back and watch the first week and compare it to now, they are consistent in terms of their thought process etc.

What's slightly different now is the situation they are in...it's a bit more "extreme" if you will than the usual Meera situations that they've coped with most of their lives.

We can all agree on the fact that the Raizadas don't really understand Meera and how she needs to be handled...Genie, them allowing her to do so many courses doesn't necessarily mean that they totally understood her...it's a case of them not knowing what to do so letting her try whatever she can, hoping something will work...and now they've landed on shaadi as a solution so they are making all the efforts for this "last ditch" solution to work.

We feel bad because as the audiences we see the hit all this has taken on Meera's self-esteem, we are more directly privy to her discomfort around Aman but the Raizadas have always lived in their own bubble...if they had actually been perceptive towards Meera, she wouldn't even be in this situation.

The parents don't surprise me but yes, Riya has turned out to be far dumber than she looked in the first week...back then, she was simply class conscious but otherwise she seemed like a strong/independent woman...but ever since she's landed in Devpur, she's progressively degraded as a character and become an enduring insult to educated/strong women everywhere. The fact that she's directly privy to all of Aman's nonsense and still remains mum makes her a bigger culprit in my eyes.

But well, I'm just taking it as a given cuz that's how the story has to go...Abhi is the only one that gets Meera like that.

AY- I get it, they have made the situation super extreme...but I don\'t still see these parents or that dad pushing her daughter in an abusive relationship. To me, they seemed Parents who were dejected, helpless and bewildered by Meera . Not the stupidity they have pushed them into. Because I don't even see the necessity of "why only Aman".

I can even understand their inability of understanding Meera. That would have been more compelling. I could have understood angry daddy at her or taunting one too. But this willingly letting her walk in to the marriage of abuse is something else.

Riya was far more practical but they have made her super dumb. Right from that party where she could not participate in that convo to this.

The parents have always been presented as a foil in the storyline...I'm not sure if any of their characters are intended to be deeply explored or presented with more layers...they simply appear at significant points to move the story forward and then disappear...main focus is always going to be on the Pants I think.

Honestly I never found Daddy Raizada to be that deeply upset about Meera...he seems to be a man too busy with his work to deeply think about his daughter's issues...he tries to the best of his ability, as per his understanding...he is constantly bewildered and amused by Meera when he should actually be making the attempt to understand what makes her tick...mommy's ghanti still rings from time to time but usually gets silenced immediately for fear of daddy ki reaction.

Aman is just a plot device...we were never given any explanation for why JUST Aman 😆...we were expected to just accept it since day one ki this is the guy they've picked and this is the guy Meera HAS to make it work with😕...lol...so we've all just managed to read between the lines and presume it's cuz Aman is an IAS Officer and has so "graciously" deigned to accept Meera with all her 'kookiness'...think about it, Genie...the family is basically ASHAMED of Meera...on the surface, Aman to them is everything that a successful son looks like...that is their only parameter of measurement sadly.

I don't think the daddy knows of the abuse waise...if they show a scene of Aman directly pushing Meera around and then also Daddy remains silent, then it would be a different thing. But here, they've painted the situation as a small scuffle with Abhi and glossed over the details.

Riya as usual is hiding all the crucial details from the parents. ...the party was the last straw...they totally destroyed her character that day.

AY- I have resigned myself to this. That is why I am waiting for the shaadi to be done and dusted. So that Raizadas' can be moved away for a bit and focus be on Meera and Pants. They have made Pants more well-sketched because story hai.

Raizadas' are just plot device like sometimes Meera be. But I still find it ridiculously stupid about how Aman is projected to be the front runner. Dude, rhista dekhne bhi they send Meera with her sister all alone. i mean, whateven..Mother could have come down. But yeah, lets see how this one pans out.

The whole emphasis is for daddy R to notice Aman as the better fit damad and Abhi, the one who ain't fit for his daughter.

Dude, i want Riya gone too. Because that character is legit bumped up. Party was horrible and i cannot even process her reactions now.
