Poor Urmi is new in the house. She is getting shocked seeing Samrat's behaviour and doesn't know about her two-faced MIL. But she will find out and tactfully and cool-headedly manage both. Atleast the rest of the family will support her and our Jhansi ki Rani Trisha is back!!! YES!!!

Thanks for the healthy discussion everyone.
You all raise some good points:

1) People like this do exist in society

2) Raising awareness is crucial on sensitive issues such as this which in Indian society would typically be glossed over or swept under the carpet (in reality)

3) Showing such behavior could be seen as positive reinforcement for those elements in society who are like this

Here are my 2 cents on this - you all are correct - people like this do exist, awareness is the first step for any kind of change and this could be interpreted as positive reinforcement for those who display such mentality and behavior and subsequently those who suffer through this in silence.

I do agree that for any kind of change it's extremely important to first identify the problem, raise awareness and put things in perspective.

In the context of this show however - writers need to be extremely careful and mindful about how they approach the topic and subsequently where they want to take the story.

I've said this before and I'll say this again: the concept of the show is still unclear to me - if the intent is to show a girl with stars in her eyes and an idealistic image of her prince charming aka husband only to realize reality is far removed from her expectation and how she struggles with that and how 2 ppl completely different from each other are bound together in matrimony and work things out - either by growing closer together or growing apart - they don't need to show Samrat's character as disgusting as we have seen so far.

If the show's concept is to raise awareness for brutes like Samrat who have no respect for women and think of their wife as their personal property and treat her like a pair of shoes - then in that context his characterization is more justified - by no means is this OK for him to behave in that manner but I can understand why his character must be portrayed as such. In this instance (seems like the story is headed that way) Urmi's characterization and treatment is crucial. Now that Trisha is back in town she will have moral support (the rest of her family will make her think she needs to be the "good" wife and with her "love" he'll soften) she can start giving it back.
In the real world I would hope after their show down post coming back from her parent's house she'd figure out her husband is an insensitive, chauvinistic brute of the first order and out of self respect for herself and all women kind she needs to put her foot down.

All we can do is wait and watch - I hope Urmi starts standing up for herself soon - that's the only way viewers will retain their interest.

that is not what I meant you are
misunderstanding me. What I am saying is that maybe they are trying to bring awareness to an impending problem, but if they show the solution in a few episodes how will the show prolong? They can't finish the show in One episode.

Urmi does have a backbone I have noticed since the beginning of
The show!! Shes just waiting! She is giving sam chances if he doesn't regret or realise then she will stand up against him, she is newly married come on which woman would dare to do what u all wanna see in urmi in such short time!! Every women would behave exactly the way Urmi is behaving! If she was so strong and so modern mentality lady the she wouldnt accept the arrange marriage at the first place. Such girls exist in real life they go for arrange marriage and then must
face all the difficulties about her husband which she didnt know about since it was arranged marriage!

Urmi just does not have a backbone where the Rat is concerned. Even after the Aditi episode, she fed his big fat ego by saying sorry. I think Kanchan has more backbone as lately she indirectly insults the Rat and gets away with it. The Rat khandan are all useless since not a single one of them has ba*ls to stand up to the family idiot What was shocking was that even after his own sister was saved by Urmi from a rape, no one had a nerve to shut the idiot up when he threw his latest PMS fit. I wish some one would beat the cr*p out of him so bad that he will not walk or talk ever again. Maybe Trisha will get him arrested for abusing his wife

I can't believe Samrat's father is afraid of him. Someone needs to put him in his place and he doesn't like Tricia because she's the right one to kick him in the butt!

I have lost all respect for Urmi as she doesn't have any respect for herself. What a doormat. Take a taxi and go to your fathers house. (Even he is a useless person) Waiting for the time when Trisha handles him in a way he will never forget the rest of his life. Tolerating this kind of crap is also a sin.
