Yesterday episode was stuck in my mind...i was thinking...how ...how to decide between right and wrong when the person standing in front of you is your elder . Now dadi ji has her on set of rules on which she have belief...directly saying no to them...is being rude to your elder . Staying with your morals and values ...apni jagah...but you can't just disobey your elders...especially when they even are not aware that what you are as a person .You are new to the place . So how will the decision be taken ???????...Now we all know that today indira will not be ready to put those shoes on her head...but will that be right ?????...ofcourse for us...but will it be right for the family...?????...No...not right...that is a conservative family...and they are believing in some things from the past years...now suddenly a person with new thinking joins the family...will the things change ????...or will the kind of understanding be there ????...no...it takes a lot of time for thinkings to change...

So in such a situation what according to you guys is right...What would you have done if you were ever trapped in such a situation...?...you knew the person is your elder ...and your husband's grand mother whom you are meeting for the very first time...the family is your husband's family...so even when what was ordered to you was against your values...you will do it for the happiness of elders standing there and will not take it as an insult . After that slowly and gradually you will try to place your opinions in the family .Or you will reject that...say no to it...as your heart does not allow that...for you...their happiness does matter but not at the cost of your self respect . You will have confidence in yourself that you will make things right in future .

Now if you go with first way...Aren't you actually encouraging something you are against...may be later ...even after your tries...it will always be you who will bow down to the family happiness ...your opinions will never matter...So by continuously doing the tasks which are against your will...will not a part break in you ??????...it will be like a jail where you just have to do thinks asked...

and if you go for second option...the first impression your family will get is that the girl does not know to obey elders . Her "akad" matters more than the elders words for her . May be that will even spoil relations further . And if in future ...you kept on rejecting the things you were asked to you...a kind of gap will developed . Than making things fine will be like impossible . Now if you keep on rejecting...saying no...to your elders...especially those elders who are not aware about your nature...your values...things will get complicated .

So what's right and what's wrong...????...How should one deal with it ?????...

I didn't find anything conservative in this family yesterday no wonder Sim Dawan left this narrow minded people.
I don't know why Ila mam like throw her ridiculous ideas on us . I like the way Indira is understanding up for herself
and Indu very young yet open minded unlike that dadi . What kind of set rules is that to hold someone else shoes on ur head , am mean what century these ppl live in . She is a Dil not a slave for god sake
Everything in yesterday was wrong all the way . Anyways let see what a waits us
😆 They made Indira change in the middle of road with so many men around ( is this also conservative ideas )

but according to them what they did was right...the way she said ki yaha ke kanoon hum banate hain...and shehar ki baat mat karo yaha...
and then in precap scene ...the way she said jo nariyal bhagwan ko na chadaya ja sake ...woh bekaar hota hain "...it showed na that her not following actually did created the feeling in amma ji's heart ...that she disobeyed her ...din't respected her words so evn when she saved hersel;f from something...she loosed something as well... I agree...that indira is right at her place...but what i am trying to say is ...that according to them...its indira who is at fault . Indira ko us baat ko bhi samajhna hoga...aur kadam bahut soch samaj kar rakhne honge because at the end of the day...she now belongs to that family .

How misogynistic! I wonder if this post was written by a woman... If so , no wonder the condition of women is deplorable because of such chauvinistic attitudes... What do you mean by 'indira belongs to that family now' ?? Is she a bloody piece of property?? Why do people expect women to make unfair compromises?? Would it be considered okay if rishi was asked to hold sunainas footwear over his head? I was actually shocked at rishi that he was enjoying the public humiliation of his wife. Indira deserves much better than this. No wonder India is famous for degradition of women!

isn't that the point TM trying to make. What should one do not take the crap and leave the place or take the crap and change it gradually. Even though I am not satisfied with some points of the post but the main point of the post I.e. what should one look up to greater good or momentary one, can not be considered misogynistic.

Its definitely considered misogyny if a women is expected to make all the sacrifices for the so called greater good... Indira should have bluntly said "no"... what they are expecting out of her is plain crazy and unethical...Indian shows always have plenty of elements of misogyny ...no wonder its reflected in the society and attitudes of people regarding women... Audience should stop taking this kinda shit!!!

excuse me! But if doing that once can bring about a change in the entire mind set of the people of that place, if doing that brings awareness among the women of the place and all the misogyny in that place comes to an end ... What should one do? I am not holding you wrong, I would have a lot of respect f for one who denies to take the crap but TM's point is considerable too (forget about what TM had to say about we should listen to what elders say) ... The woman who complies to that demand when the situation demands but later puts in effort to get that change all over the place is no less respectworthy.
I agree what they are expecting of her is too much and Indira can and should say no to it but wouldn't it be better if she makes all the women of that place understand that they shouldn't take the shit. Both the situations would prove her strong.

Well i disagree strongly... handling a situation differently doesn't mean compromising with personal ethics and self respect and being forced to something you are not comfortable doing!!!! some boundaries need to be set straight so that people don't take undue advantage...

everyone might not think in the same way. I would have chosen to disagree with them and left the place too but that doesn't mean I have a right to judge what someone else does. And that too , if it's not for forever.
