Chavan is a maratha surname. Marathas are the khshatriyas, I have heard Bhavani harping about 96-kuli maratha caste which is supposed to be the highest of all marathas in Maharashtra.
Joshi is a Brahmin surname. So Sai is brahmin.
Normally, in any Indian family a inter-caste marriage is frowned upon, unless they are modern/know the girl/boy well in advance. Here the Chavans already have Shivani, but I do not know if there is any backstory there.
Do you think this would be issue for Sai? Was there anything in the original show about this?
Karishma is Sindhi girl.
She married Mohit in a court marriage.
I was sure that since SaiRat are.getting married with Chavan family's.permission but they would have a tradriinal.marriage so that Bhavani wouldn't taunt Sai.
Now if we see the Hindu caste system Brahmins top Vaishya Kshatriya and Shudras.
So technically Sai is of a higher caste than Chavan family.
