Reformers like Raja Ram Mohan Roy raised their voice against social evils like Sati and female infanticide. He also advocated education for women.
Exactly. And there were ishwar chander vidhya sagar who devoted his whole life for women's education.
Anyways the thing is expectations were very high. The way show was promoted people wanted it to be perfect. We cant judge 1940s era just by 2-3 episodes. There are many things on which that era shud be judges.
I wont judge it hastily. Lets give it one or two month. No one can make a show great from the first episode only.
Somebody pointed out talking to sipahis. She didnt talk face to face. She was behind that prada. That was very much acceptable.
