Also, what according to CVs is "right"? People are immature in childhood. Immature in teen marriages. Immature in adolescence. And now immature and not marriage material even after age of post graduation?
There is problem with lack of education. There is problem even in properly educated people?

Agree that BV has lost its focus on social issues and its strong storyline which was its main charm. The Sanchi character seems to be written just to build conflict in the serial and was not required at all.

The Ganga track was mishandled right from the beginning when the Singhs were shown as bringing her home instead of sending her to a suitable mahila ashram. The Jagya - Ganga romantic track could have been built realistically, there was no need to introduce the Sanchi engagement track. After Ganga was rehabilitated and self sufficient, she could have been shown as marrying Jagya and the show could have concluded decently.

The current track is not only unrealistic but also gives dangerously wrong messages.

This serial had once depicted the trials and tribulations of child brides (Anandi, Phooli, Sugna etc) and the many complications that comes with child marriages and had brought out clearly that education and self sufficiency is what empowers women. There were even reports that it had helped to curb real life child marriages.

What has been shown so far in the Ganga track is about an abused women getting overattached to her benefactor family and developing a huge crush on her mentor.
If Jagya had friends in Mangalore, there was no need for him to go with Ganga in the first place, just as there was no need for him alone to accompany her to the divorce court, which was another distasteful scene. But yesterday's episode brought down the story to an all time low level.

In spite of Sumitra's open disapproval at her getting close to Jagya, Ganga showed a disturbing degree of dependency on him such as crying for 2 marks and refusing to explain the reason to anyone else except him, sitting close to him, competing for his attention and now celebrating an intimate family festival with him. If Jagya behaved indecently by calling his friends there and staying back for the festival Ganga's behaviour too was hardly proper - being a village woman, she knows the significance of Teej and the fact that her benefactor is an engaged man. She did not even suggest that he go back to his fiancee and his family. Instead, she cooks for his friends, coolly presumes to advise him to study further, accepts a personal gift from him and behaves as though it is the most natural thing for them to spend a festival meant for a husband and wife together.

Where is the social message here? As BV is projected as a realistic serial that spreads social awareness and addresses real issues and solutions, underprivileged rural women in Ganga's position watching this serial are likely to expect similar fairytales to unfold in their lives and may even feel entitled from the world the way the Singhs were shown as indulging Ganga, rather than getting motivated to study and become independent.

I have nothing against the Jagya-Ganga romance but the way the story has been built is illogical and highly unrealistic.

I completely agree with you on these points. Knowing very well that Ganga has to stay alone in the unknown city, how could Jagadhieesh invites his freinds to Ganga's place than his hotel room. What was the necessity fro him to go to Mangalore on a rush when he knew gansham kaka was there with her to help her. How much he has spent on Ganga's accomodation, from the look of the house, it doesnot look cheap. It lookeed totally equipped with all the necessities.

Responsibility towards Gagnga doesn't mean you forget your responsibility towards your family and mostly towards your fience. He could have spent the festival day with his family and then during weekend he could have travelled to Mangalore. You need not be physically present to help someone. You can do it staying away also.

atw, where wa sgansham Khaka during this whole episode?

I am not supporting Sanchi or Ira or sumithra here (they sit on my nerve on every scene) but if we have blame those, we have to blame DS, Jagya, Ganga as well. DS sneakily send Sattu to Ganga and reprimands Gehna from speaking it out with other on the pretext of saving the family peace. When DS can manupulate Ganga to avaoid Jagya to go along with her, why she did not advised jagya about not travelling on festival day to Mangalore?

Yes, even I wanted Ganga & Jagya together but not so fast. I wanted her to move out of Haveli and complete her studies and then stand on her feet before thinking about Jagya.

Though Ira's quote was wrong about comparing Anandi & Ganga, but the way ganga is behaing at the moment is very much of Ira's predictions.
