Narrow minded and backwards script writers

Girls are a "bhoj"!? The bride's side has to bow down to the groom's side? Endorsing dowry by having the girl's relatives tell the groom's side that this is their rightful demand? In fact, they were ready to take on a huge loan! Are you trying to sell your daughter here? Yeah, essentially.
Stop endorsing this! In a country where female infanticide is so prevelant, this is truly disgusting to witness. What happens to parents who can't afford to give dowry? Oh lets see, they kill their daughters before they're even born. Scumbags.


To the script writers, get a life please. What kind of message are you sending to a society where women are already considered inferior to men? Other television shows and many media outlets are trying to empower Indian women. What is this?

These writers need to be socially responsible here. Are they forgetting the current state of India?

Also, just because a girl gets married, it doesn't mean she becomes "parayi" to her parents. So tired of watching such garbage.

The narrative is just showing all those things the family said about dowry, girl's marriage; it's not saying those views are correct. That they are wrong is not being blasted and blared out, and to be honest, I prefer it that way. There have been enough things where it's clear within the show that Urmi's family are wrong in being so acquiescent.

For me, it depends on how the show goes on. Whether they drop and allow many of these thinking to go unchallenged.

Though I don't think the above applies to the whole "parayi after marriage" stuff. I think that is some regressive crap that they all write and there's some sort of Hindi serial 101 where it says it's a must as part of marriage/wedding episodes.😵

Did you see what Urmi's mother was telling her yesterday? That she must conform to her new family basically. I hope I see a strong change within this show because as an intelligent and independent woman, I find this show highly offensive and disturbing.

It's actually an insult to your intelligence

Finally there are women here who find the show offensive. Its turning into a regressive plot. I happened to stumble on this show with its first episode where Trisha confronted rowdies on road and stood up to a typical guy like samrat. When i decided to be on this forum, it was pathetic to read women gushing over bad boy timid girl love story that has been given a strange name as samur love. So i figured the forum is full of either paid fans on digital medium or the cast and crew of show.

Well, at first I did not have a problem with Samrat that is why I had agreed on the match, just thought he had attitude. I see it in all serials just took as the norm that the writers will always show some tough rich guy with attitude and then he changes. I really find these stories annoying, but what can I do? I spent the past years talking against the mediocre serials, but I only got bashing for it and that I must not comment or watch.

I clearly understand your point Likarsh.

I wasn't calling for Samrat/Trisha. I said early on that I wish the show had been developed differently for Samrat/Trisha, but as the story has gone I don't see Samrat/Trisha and I don't see why/how Trisha would want him.

I'd like to point out that this topic is not about Samrat/Urmi vs. Samrat/Trisha. A Samrat and Trisha type of clash has been seen in many shows now. So, there's nothing new with either pairing.

I don't really have a problem with Samrat's character. He is a sexist pig and we've known that from day one. Clearly, he's wrong and is being portrayed as the current antagonist of the story. He's supposed to be a pompous jerk and this in fact, is the main conflict of the show. Samrat unfortunately represents a large population of men in India. It's sick but it's true. But yeah, with that being said, I have a feeling his mother will be worse than him. She's created this monster.

My main problem is mostly with Urmi's family. They are supposed to represent a typical middle class Indian family. However, their views on marriage and women are totally outdated. In fact, they make women sound so helpless and weak. Her in laws' house is her REAL home? Excuse you script writers!

What's next? Urmi can't handle Samrat and returns to her home only to be told by her parents to return to her husband as this is where she belongs now? Since she is "parayi" now. I think if this happens, I'll be done with this show for good. I can't handle anymore regressive nonsense.
