In a nutshell,
Surili - weirdly obsessed with kicking Rajni out. I find it odd because while she obviously thinks little of her other 2 bahus, she still tolerates them. Also, Dhyaan has clearly accepted that he gambled his money and wanted to leave the house for Sharmila - how is Dhyaan not at fault in any way.

Maggi - complete buffoon.

Sharmila - dumb and very selfish. She dumped her husband's side the moment

Aishwariya - Loud,

Shogu - So egoistical and elitist - it is insufferable. Probably the worst. A worse version of her mother. And her 3rd person rant is just weird.

Kuhu - the only decent female in the house. Pity.

The characterisation of the two brothers makes the whole affair worse, because it shows the two bahus to be manipulative and dominating in bad ways.

Gyaan - maa bhakt to the point where it is ridiculous.
Dhyaan - muffin bhakt to the point where it is ridiculous.

While Shaan is also egoistical, it's more of a personality flaw as opposed to something wrong with the characterisation. Other than Rajni, only Amrish comes off as being rather reasonable most of the time.

Rajni has done nothing but be kind and good to all the members of the house.

They could have made the arguments less gender-based and more about robots vs humans. For instance, instead of being annoying, maybe Surili could have just been very strict and Rajni always misinterprets her words - leading to them being at loggerheads. Or maybe one time, she accidentally set fire on Sharmila's clothes because she misheard her - hence Sharmila is mad at her.

There are a number of ways to have the household angry at Rajni because she does not understand human words, sayings or behaviour. Instead, they simply focus on the fact that Amrish is fond of Rajni and hence everyone is angry with her. Strange.

P.S. Also, as someone had pointed out earlier - why isn't Shaan standing up for Rajni anymore? He keeps blaming her for certain things even though he clearly knows she did not know any better. If anything, he is the one completely at fault.

I think the point I really started questioning the characters is when rajni was arrested. the women were so freaking happy. as a family member they should have been concerned for her esp surili


and now everyone has this irritating "its all rajni's fault " ... like why ? completely logic defying . no one yelled at sharmilla for wanting to buy a second house. but blamed rajni


they need to tone it down

Same here! Even for me that was the point it looked fake. Don't even get me started on Sharmila the most selfish and pathetic bimbo on this show. Don't actors feel weird playing characters like this? Or don't they care beyond saying their lines? The show defies logic in every way now.


The Robot part is the most believable, coz the women in this house are an INSULT to ALL women! The biggest insult is that a Woman is writing this show! Are they not ashamed to show their own sex in such a cheap light? I never get these serial writers. Even women do not leave a stone unturned to make other women look bad even on a show. Even in fiction. It's quite disturbing.


Anyways, I find the "blame Rajini" thing pathetic! SHARMILA and Dhyaan made the mistake and Rajini is at fault? If she had not helped him, Dhyaan would have just got told off for loosing the truck money and Rajini would not even be involved. Sharmila is such a hypocrite. She wanted to leave the house, but when Rajini told Armish that, she had a problem with it! How exactly was she planning on leaving the house without Armish knowing she moved out? Stupidity also has a limit!
