Lots busy today and in the weekend.
Hope to do caps of last 2-3 episodes tomorrow.Nandini's child marriage will be very bad. But was just thinking something different.So far we have witnessed at least 5-6 child marriages in BV. Choti Anandi, Choti Gauri, etc. etc. Anandi's marriage does not count since it was the premise of the whole serial and all discussions are in fact around it.But the later marriages of children who were saved by Anandi, Ganga, etc. etc. never threw up so much discussion on the forum. Discussions used to always be around how the child was saved, who saved the child, whether the action sequences were good etc. etc. "Child is getting married, Anandi or someone will save it...", "Recycling of track..." etc. etc.Discussions never centred around the poor child because there was no connect with the child.All of us feel for Nandini because she is Anandi and Shiv's child. And have strong connect with her. Which is why such pouring of emotions.I wish that people who are watching the show in parts of India where such customs are still prevalent, introspect and take something from it for their own lives. If they feel for Nandini and Anandi and their pain at being separated from each other, they should also fight against the custom in their own homes, neighbourhoods and districts.It is only when people are hit hard with such storylines, that there would be even a modicum of introspection as to what they are doing or allowing is wrong.
This is the first time I actually felt for child brides after Anandi.
In precap Nandini's tear filled eyes and confused face when she was looking at this husband and wife pair lingered in my mind for so long.
Just couldn't believe that they could only see a prospective bahu in that small baby who was looking lost confused missing her mother
