Surithy has some good view points on why Gulaal should not have elected Dushyant has the head of the village.

Thought it was a interesting topic so made it into a thread.

Forgiving was her choice and her rights but not telling Mottaba and Pannbaa? They do need a closure for their son's death. They didn't make the decision to forgive D so just imagine the day they come to know the truth, how disgusted they will about themselves for sheltering their son's killer and that too treating him like their or maybe giving him their son's place. Knowing D as a killer I don't think she has the right to make D head of the Sarpanch. I am not at all against forgiving but on the other side it is like cheating the villagers who trust her blindfolded, even if it is unintentional from Gualala's side.

Being Mahan is one thing but to make decision for others is another?


I don't also agree with her making Dush head of the village too to a certain extent.

What I was talking about before is Gulaal decision to make Dush the Sarpanch...does not mean that she's totally ok with Dush now and will happily consider him as a future husband. There is a limit and this takes it way past the limit.

About Gulaal decision on Dush being the Sarpanch.

I am in both minds...

Like you said above I agree and this is why Gulaal should not have made Dush the Sarpanch.

But looking at Gulaal's point of view Dush has been working for the village without any aim or greed. And I think the main reason she said Dush was because she believed that shes not worth the Sarpanch title. Because Motoba named her because he wants to secure her future not because she's the ideal person to take over but ideally he would have chosen Dush.

I think in Gulaal's mind she thinks Vasant's death is buried with her knowing and the fact that Dush has repented.

Yes Motoba and the family should know and have the right to know what really happened to their son. But in Gulaal's point of view there is nothing to gain but a lot of lose if everyone finds out. And her promise to keep the family together is ringing in her head.

Will it not break Motoba's/Paanama's heart yet again and more deeply to find out that their beloved son was murdered and that too by his cousin? Can they take this burden at this age? Is it really justified to break the family up just because they have the right to know?

People can argue this both ways...

I will say the longer you hide something (esp something big like this), the harder it becomes to tell everyone the truth. Because other things happen and the situation all changes.

But I do think that Gulaal did not think this decision through (she was put on the spot and all). Because she knows that Dhurgst (sp?) knows the truth about Dushyant and it's a matter of time before he uses it against the family.
But I guess its been 10 years and he hasn't done anything...but we the viewers know that he is waiting for the right time.

In summary I would have liked Gulaal to have Sarpanch title, because she knows about Dush past sins, and have Dush help her.

But I guess CV did this to cause more fiction in Gulaal and Kesar relationship, thus move the story ahead.

It was not a wise decision on the part of Gulaal..who is she to decide...the punishment for a culprit...after all a culprit should be punished at any cost...If Dushyant's heart is crystal clear...he should have guilt in accepting the vasanth's place..as sarpanch..instead he is trying to hide his sin by making the lorry driver run away from talsagara.

i disagree with gulaal making dushyant sarpanch, but i agree with her not telling the family members about him being the murderer- because its such a big shock and everyine wont be able to take it, but i think that gulaal is so obssessed with this decision that she made of not telling anyone about vasants murderer because of the whole 'dont want to hut anyone's feelings thing' that she's started to give dushyant a bit too much importance regarding the sarpanch thing, supporting him in front of the whole village, giving him extra responsibilites, i mean especially with the new rumour thats come out how is gulaal going to respond to that, no one's going to believe he justification because all they have to say is:
'oh but you did this...'
'oh but you said this...'
and there goes gulaals whole plan of being so great and mahaaan!!!
wow, long response!!

So agree. If he really was the goodie-goodie he would have handed himself over immediately to th jailer and police. I'm hoping for Kesar to shed some light over Motoba and Paanba. They out of all people should know.

Peacefulblossom -I am privileged for the thread, over the moon. Thank you!😊

I agree with you, I get why she wanted D, but I would have been happier if she asked MB to remain in the position then it would have been MB to decide. I know she wouldn't in her wildest dream think of D as her future hubby.

I am still against her taking D's name in Sarpanch not because I don't believe people could change, but because I didn't really feel D has repented really or maybe enough, I didn't see his inner battle even in a slighter glams for the capability for the position. Especially when cv showed him leaving panchayath to threaten the driver. Also it is not her life she is taking the decision about but of the entire village.

I do get her dilemma of Gulaal not revealing the truth to the family, but she shouldn't guide people into having an image of D as saint, that is wrong. I rather have her neutral in D's matter because everyone trusts her so much and she has that responsibility towards them. There are always side effects for being a mahan. I am a person who forgives people who hurts me but that doesn't mean I forget what they did. Life always gives us lessons to be learned, if we don't then we will get more experiences in life until we learn it. I am very happy that she forgave but I don't want her to forget, sometimes I feel as if Gulaal is caring a burden of guilt regarding Vasanth's murder because of D's lust for Gulaal. Somewhere I feel that she blames herself also.

I so agree with you on hiding the truth for longer and also the fact she didn't get the time to think through. But it should be something in her mind all the time haunting her, especially when Durgesh knows the truth. Knowing Durgesh, in her mind it is not if but when the truth is revealed.

It is not that I don't want her to make mistake but I don't want the cv to go out of the way to justify her. She is a human and I want them to keep her as one. I also want her to accept her flaws. I am dyeing to accept Gulaal with her flaws. I see it as a good opportunity to make Gulsar journey with her flaws.

But you are right if the truth is revelled then what is it to spice up the show? 😡😡😡

I agree that Dushyant's heart is not clear. And I don't think he ever will be.

You can't really change your personality foundations...he has the ability to bad and he can never be crystal clear, they will always be grey shades in him.

Even though he is fighting his bad side...like coming uo to Motoba and asking him to give him a chance to explain himself if they ever find out anything bad about him.

But in the other side...he is scaring away the lorry driver and spying on Kesar. The grey shade is still there.

He has got used to the family and villages looking up to him...doesn't want someone to come and tak that away from him..

Your welcome. Its a great discussion 😊 I haven't watched Gulaal properly for the last few weeks so my response might be outdated. House hunting is a killer, totally shattered so hope this makes sense. Need to sit down and watch.

I agree with you, I get why she wanted D, but I would have been happier if she asked MB to remain in the position then it would have been MB to decide. I know she wouldn't in her wildest dream think of D as her future hubby.

The idea of having MB stay the head is fine. But the man seems to be weakling alot lately. I'm actually worried about him? Do you think the CV are planning to kill him off?

Would have been better MB giving D name. And Gulaal just saying she's not worthy and to choose someone else.

I am still against her taking D's name in Sarpanch not because I don't believe people could change, but because I didn't really feel D has repented really or maybe enough, I didn't see his inner battle even in a slighter glams for the capability for the position. Especially when cv showed him leaving panchayath to threaten the driver. Also it is not her life she is taking the decision about but of the entire village.

Actually I don't really think people can really change. If a person is misleaded and then changes their ways then fine.

But D has grey shades in him that will never go away. Thats his foundation of what a person he is.

The grey shades can be seem when he goes to threaten the driver like you said and also keeping an eye on Kesar. I don't think that keeping an eye on Kesar was all about Kesar safety.

And yet he asks MB to give him a chance to explain if they hear anything bad about him. From what I remember he was very sincerer in his request. But keep down he doesn't want to lose what he has now.

Is it to keep his family together?

Or is it more selfish and he doesn't want his past sins to catch up to him, he is happy with his life and doesn't want to go to prison.

I do get her dilemma of Gulaal not revealing the truth to the family, but she shouldn't guide people into having an image of D as saint, that is wrong. I rather have her neutral in D's matter because everyone trusts her so much and she has that responsibility towards them. There are always side effects for being a mahan.

Somewhere I feel that she blames herself also.

Your right Gulaal should not make D look like a saint because he's not. And to give what should have been Vasants title to D was a very wrong move. I didn't like it.

And I agree about forgiveness (for the sake of family etc) but she should not forget what evil D is capable of doing...

About Gulaal blaming herself for Vasants death. Your bang on and I also strongly believe that. The way she neglects herself, doesn't plan anything for herself. Can't even remember what she likes and doesn't like and all she can think of Vasants wishes. Yes she loves her dead husband alot...but her neglect on herself...she just doesn't feel she's worthy of anything.. The guilt of Vasant's death is draining her.

She seems to have given up on living...just waiting for the day she fulfills Vasant's last wish and Kesar takes over and she can rot away somewhere.

I so agree with you on hiding the truth for longer and also the fact she didn't get the time to think through. But it should be something in her mind all the time haunting her, especially when Durgesh knows the truth. Knowing Durgesh, in her mind it is not if but when the truth is revealed.

I think when D truth comes out (it will just a matter of time), it will lift a big burden off Gulaal's head.

I don't see any romantic feeling from Gulaal's side happening towards Kesar until this burden as been lifted. In my head it doesn't make sense but ofcourse its CV story and they can do whatever they want with it. Hopefully they won't spoil it.

If Gulaal is to see Kesar in a new light then the turning point should be his reaction and how he deals with the knowledge of D and why Gulaal kept it quiet. And then she can notice Kesar unconditional love for her. (This is purely my preference)

It is not that I don't want her to make mistake but I don't want the cv to go out of the way to justify her. She is a human and I want them to keep her as one. I also want her to accept her flaws. I am dyeing to accept Gulaal with her flaws. I see it as a good opportunity to make Gulsar journey with her flaws.

Yes it will be refreshing to see the lead being normal and making mistakes. I like how they shown Gulaal with her faults of being too selfless. Making leads more human allows us to relate to them more.

But you are right if the truth is revelled then what is it to spice up the show? 😡😡😡

This story has alot of potential. With Gulaal-Kesar tension and the love triangle. And Gulaals development...

If the revel the truth carefully...the story will have a massive impact and will be very interesting.

I'm a little worried how the story is going tbh, its like they keep are opening so many tracks and waiting to resolve them all in one big bang...maybe because the show is going to end?... I'm hoping my thinking it wrong.


Sorry wrote a lot. 😆 Lets hope you didn't fall asleep mid way reading the reply.
