^ Sindoor/kumkum known as vermillion powder
Ek chutki sindoor ki keemat tum kya jaano
Eeshwar ka ashirvad hota hai
Ek Chukti Sindoor
Suhaang ka sar ka taj hota hai
Ek Chukti Sindoor
(From movie Om Shanti Om)
Quick History
Sindoor is applied in the maang of a married woman and it's a mark of married woman. Telling all the other outside men, that she is taken and its full stop. ššš Unmarried girls should not apply sindoor or wear sindoor. The applying of and the history of sindoor is very old tradition in HinduThe reason sindoor/kumkum is red because it comes from orangish red pigment. Reference http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sindoor
Today
Today's show was emphasis on the importance of Sindoor and how important it is for a married woman to wear a sindoor. Nandu went up to Dev and said in cute sleepy voice Jeeja ji, mujhe ghar jana hai but Vishaka answered for him and silenced him.š”
My favorite scene was when Vishaka goes to touch Mirnali Bhabi's feet and she taunts Vishaka, "Maang mein sindoor bhula bhul gayi" Her taunting is making Vishaka really annoyed and irrated.
Back in Shastri House
After taking her shower Radhika looks in her mirror and touches her maang. Their is flashback of how Dev applied the sindoor. She questions her self should she apply the sindoor or not. Her belief says that she should, but her helpless says she doesn't and then a grouchy and rude Amma walks in.
Using big matkas Amma washes Radhika's maang. It takes her four matkas to erase any signs of sindoor in Radhika's maang. (IT takes Amma four matkas to wash off the sindoor. Radhika really has magical mehendi, and sindoor. First her mehendi keeps disappearing and reappearing but now her sindoor. )
Devki interference but Amma says that the sindoor is of Vishaka's suhaag and Devki says even though its in Radhika's maang but its the signficent of Vishaka's suhaag.
My comments and predictions
- I can't see Radhika and Dev suffering. I am sick of the injustice and ill treatment taht is happening to Radhika.
- I loved Mrin Bhabi (Mrinalini) for taunting Vishaka, and emphasisng how forgettable Choti Bahu is. Vishaka should be conscious of her every move, because Mrinalini Bhabi will be there to taunt her and get on her nerves.
- Devki should open her mouth and speak up and defend Radhika. (Let Amma die)
- In the future Nandu will confront, Radhika and someone will hear them.
- I wonder if Amma is scared of facing Gord with her scenes. Does she have any inner soul or concious.š She is the first grandma in shows that i have seen to be so mean, cruel and wicked and bitter.
- My advice for Amma, Vishaka, Devki is to watch Om Shanti Om and learn the importance of Sindoor.š http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJceJm15QO8
Few Qestions:
- Does Amma being a Brahmin woman, a priest mother, former wife, widow, understand the significance of Sindoor?
- What do you think about Vishaka and unmarried girl wearing sindoor? In the eyes of public she is married, but only she knows she isn't married.
- In your opinion do you think Devki is also the culprit of Radhika? Devki is silently and helplessy watching all the injustice being done to Radhika.
