good post jyoti... raghu is worth it, but his family is not ...
completely agree when u say that shivani is quite like raghu ... she too is selfless n always thinking of other people around her , especially the ones she loves... she loves raghu n her mind n heart has accepted his family too wholeheartedly , however mean n greedy n bad they are ... she has no grudges whatsoever with any of them... she is so pure hearted ...
Yes and thats where Sumitra is using this weakness of hers to her advantage .. Sumi knows Shivani will do it all seflelssly for the family and thats where she is trapping Shivani ... I hope somehow Sumi is exposed at least .. cant tolerate her evil smirks anymorelatha's twin personality is to the fore again ... on one hand she gives lectures on family honour n does things to taint it ... n here she gives lectures on a girls honor n the need to uphold it to shivani that day n when shivani was trying to do the same thing , she goes all ballistic over her !!!! ... wasn't she the one who was worried about ginni's education n was saying that ginni's marriage won't happen in 2-3 years ... what the hurry?
I guess she is swinging between a woman and a housewife who is bound to the duties towards her family .. When Shivani was blasting that family , Latha's expression showed for a split second she felt proud of Shivani as a woman but when Baburam lost his fuse and told Latha how none gonna marry Ginni now , that typical housewife and mother in her went into the orthodox mode and blasted off Shivani despite knowing that she is right đ¤trust the CVs to throw a damb squid on us in the form of sumitra-shivani cat fight which in the end frizzled out to nothing as the whole issue was on dowry n not who made what n who put up curtains... !!!
yeah .. I still feel CVs r timepassing till Raghu is back đshivani stays at raghu house , believing that he loves her , in the process loving n accepting his family as hers too , after giving up all she had n she has to listen to crap from all!!!! ... much like raghu during mu track... i won't actually say that its not worth it to shivani as bela , nishi n ginni r too from the same family... they r all good people with right notions about what's right n wrong (i mean bela especially) n not believe that society rules r the ultimatum...
I stil says its not worth it because nothing is worth beyond one's self-respect .. Shivani should not take every simgle nonsense from family in the name of selfless love .. she should protest at times too .. Bela though is an exception in this family but somewhere she is bound by society pressure too or else when Maya trapped her in that false stealing fiasco , Bela would not leave the house for her self-respect .. she too knows post marriage husband's house is only her house .. and thats a typical mentality again .,.i wonder if raghu was present there what would have been the situation? surely he would have opposed the dowry demand ... but would the family go for his throat n accuse him of spoiling ginni's life ? no...! may be baburam would, he is bad ! he has only one thing in his mind! money ! ... but will the others accuse him? especially latha? no! ... bec its raghu who is saying ... but here as its shivani , its convenient to accuse her ...
Latha obviously would hv remained quiet if it was Raghu and thats where I said its not worth it because one can clearly see the hypocracy here ...n i don't think raghu thinks that she can't stay in his family bec of his family members mean nature n different rules ... so far we haven't seen him thing along those lines... we r just 'assuming' that he would have thought like that ... so far Cvs has only showed him worrying about 'servant-master' divide n 'richness' factor plus the 'sin' factor of having any sort of desire for his 'maliksa's pothi'...
Dhanya what is a discussion without assumptions .. if we just write whats shown in epi , there is no room for discussion ..isn't it .. in this case I m not really assuming though because if u remember the rickshaw episode , Raghu did hv a self talk after remembering how Shivani is used to travelling in AC cars but today travelling in busses and rickshaws because of him ... Another point when Raghu himself told Shivani there is zameen and aasman ka difference between us .. the difference of rich and poor .. and on another occasion he told Bela that hum dono ka koi Mel nahin hai ... when he says naukar and malkin too , he means this only ... the difference of mentality .. the difference of ooch and neech .. the difference of class and conduct ... the difference of society ... the differtence of family culture clash ... everything is included in a malkin and naukar equation...
between will love to see a post from u too đ
