In my times, we did not discuss these things. I went to school, college, university but our discussions were centred around studies, sports and films.

Don't think Mangala will discuss such things - even mothers don't discuss in village society. One of the village ladies may discuss - Nimboli is too friendly with all of them - or was these scenes inserted to show how cute she is? Had she been confined to her home only - then we could say that she has no one to discuss. Creatives always show contradicting things.



Those village ladies at the well. there is a generation gap. They are treating Nimboli as cute BV.

Nimboli has only one friend of her age we have seen. That friend is worried about her torture. Where is the time to discuss these things? Now she wants to discuss these things with Mangala. Let us see if Mangala tells her something.

So true . Where is the time to think about boys let alone discuss about them?
More importantly who are the boys who she comes across on a regular basis? Kundan and his friends . She doesn't even like any of these guys . So where is the question about getting attracted to them?
She may be repulsed by boys right now.

She is even trying to decipher Kundan's behaviour towards her . That shows that she is becoming aware of something.

Kundan put her off when he was touching her inappropriately but at the same time she didn't feel threatened was not put off by his touch when he was being friendly and nice.
She obviously knows what she likes and what she doesn't like.

Besides not everyone feels attracted to opposite sex at this age,Some boys and girls go through Eewww phase too.

Nimboli is curious but has no one to discuss with nor does she feel that it is the most important thing in her life . Only now it is staring at her so she is paying attention to it.

We can't expect Nimboli to know about SR. I came to know only through TV. About baby making, upto tenth class I was made to believe that when we feel like having a baby, it will automatically come into our stomach. And I was very studious kid so never discussed about boys, my 24/7 aim was how to score best in studies.
I don't find Nimboli as a dumb kid.

This is the age when children comes to know such things, develops curiosity about opposite sex becoz of media, friends.

as now they are showing every detail of Nandini's life, they are showing how kids comes to know all these and how they reacts.

Nimboli's nature in itself is in contrast with her own behaviour. She talks sometimes as if she is 5 years old and at another time as if she is a grandmother already. I don't think Nimboli can be termed as frigid. Creatives just want to portray her as innocence. She is not immersed in studies - she is very well aware of the family dynamics - her own home - then her married friend, the ladies of the village she interact with routinely. Here I'm not even talking about her attraction towards opposite sex. It is about awareness about what marriage is all about (I so wish they do not make her wonder next how children are born - at least a few children may have born in the last few years). Girls in village society are generally more aware in these things because they have fewer opportunities such as studies, games etc. Their entertainment is more about interaction with fellow girls/ladies. Nimboli seems very artificial to me (not about actor - she is cute and is doing what she is asked to do).

Urmila to me seems to be more dumb than Nimboli. She is older - and it is funny how she knows about ritual not because she has seen it in her home/neighbourhood but because of TV 😆. Girls see these rituals whenever a new bride comes - but they don't announce it to her in-laws like Urmi was doing - her behaviour is like a foolish girl. And in her interaction with Nimboli (and once with Harki) is like a wicked girl.

Pooja is better than both Nimboli and Urmila. She behaves like her age in most things, knows about what is wrong and what is right. But her crush on Mannu and her behaviour like yesteryear's Hindi movie hero - who will follow the heroine till she says love you" was not good. Then this elopement - Mannu did not EB her - he asked her to come and when she raised her objections - he turned and was going alone. Similarly - she knows her own history - how she was once saved from bal-vivah, so her agreeing to elopement and bal-vivah seems very wrong. It is very different when a person do something without knowing it is wrong, or do something because he/she is of negative personality - but when a person who is not bad by nature and who is aware that something is wrong and still does it - he/she deserves more punishment. No sympathy should be shown towards Pooja for this elopement and marriage.

Totally agree especially with the bold

Nimboli's ignorance and Pooja's awareness.

They both present contrasts.

Nimboli may belong to certain females who are somewhat frigid. And they are not dumb just because they are not interested. Many girls get so immersed in studies that they dont have time for these thoughts at all. And then careers. I see many women not married because they are interested in other things like education, careers, social activism, taking care of old parents etc.
So I dont find Nimboli as anything dumb or too childish.

As for Pooja, she is a contrast. She fell in love and forgot her other responsibilities.Like education, career and her own mother. But basically she is a nice girl and that quality will help her in getting back to her education and career. And Mannu also is a good guy at heart.

In future I would like to see a strong bond between Nimboli, mannu and Pooja.

They are the future. They may commit mistakes but they wont commit crimes.


I called nimboli dumb in one of my posts, not because she does not know about SR or physical relations, but because she does not know what a husband and wife relationship is.

No child at 12 is expected to know about SR ( I too did not know)... but they do know that a man can have only one wife and that husband and wife are expected to love each other.

Children at 7-8 start wondering how babies are born, why husband and wife share a room. Here a 12 yr old tells a wife to carry a knife with her in case her husband troubles her ?🤣

She knows very well that she is kundan's wife, then how come she is not wondering why kundan is is having more than one wife? A 12-yr old is almost like a teenager. She should not be asking questions like 5-yr olds.😆

Even nandu was made to act dumb. When he was supposed to be 16, he was shown like a 10 yr old... this is director's fault. Not the character's.😆

🤣
my story was a bit different. Till 10th I believed that kids were born automatically after marriage (though I used to wonder when the baby is born in a woman's womb, how the baby gets father's blood 🤣)

This is not expected from nimboli also, but she does not know what a wife is, this is shocking.
