Can someone kill Dadi?: / - Page 3

@annikaa - While I agree that the Generation Gap is responsible for some divergence in thinking, it doesn't justify Dadi's behaviour wholly. She has been positioned as the matriarch of this elite family who holds an exalted place in society. She has been shown to have a special bond with her grandchildren and they respect her immensely. And it isn't mere deference. That wouldn't happen without her having a certain degree of empathy with them. Without them feeling she understands them.

She has her daughters in law obey her unreservedly. She has her sons respect her. Had she wanted to, she could have made sure that Svetlana was dealt with much much earlier. As Pinky correctly pointed out, how can it be okay to have your son's mistress living in your house along with your daughter in law and children? She has allowed it to reach a point where her son will walk out if she insists upon him choosing between wife and mistress. And it is that fear that keeps her away from confrontation.

She harps on about the sanctity of marriage without paying heed to the importance of self respect. A joint family system will only thrive when the rules laid down are fair for all. And are equally applied to all. When you have positioned yourself as the family head, you have to think beyond your own ideas of what is right and wrong.

To a large extent, it is the fault of the CVs because they aren't clear in their characterisation. If you think of what the character was initially and what she is now, you can see the confusion writ large. They showed this evolved matriarch in touch with today's generation, and now suddenly she has stepped into a time machine!

Just my thoughts :)

Well she comes from a different generation..

Now its a different generation..

Her teaching might seem right..

But may not necessarily hold true..

The thing is that even of she says things for the right.. with a reason that seems baseless to our generation.. Thats

The Generation Gap..!

We must not forget the generation before ours has far more experience than ours though not necessarily the conclusions drawn from their experience always fit the frame in our situation.

But you see life is all about.. Striking the right chord between the generations..

Cause the old is as much required as the new.

My point of view 😊

And that people of the Internet, is why you don't watch daily soaps. "Nayi soch" my left foot! There is nothing 'nayi' or 'soch' about this, so where is this "nayi soch" coming from? It's the same old BS with having the grandparents be all cool and progressive in their thinking in the beginning, but right when all this marriage talk starts, welcome to the 50s my friends!

These type of oldies are root cause of women's misery. She needs RoTiLana like bahus. Tab dekhte hai uska sindoor, mangalsutra ka gyaan kahaan jaata hai.

I would love to see her try to assert her beliefs on RoTiLana. She'd be like, "shaadi blah blah blah" and they'd be like, "what is this old hag talking about?"

I wud love RoTiLana as leads if they did not went too far till murder and rape accusation. If RoTiLana were males then people would drool over them. Remember 5 nasty brothers is Behudasarai oops Begusarai. And also Suraj in Udaan who even cut a policeman's tongue in his entry scene is made a hero by pairing him with Chakor. Then why not RoTiLana accepted as leads? They are nowadays more tolerable than overdose of Gul's favourite couple's romance. Dadi hated Tia for no reason. We all and Anika knew she was bad but others did not knew. Then what was the reason for Dadi to hate Tia? She did not cared about Tia being kidnapped. Instead of annulling ShivIka marriage and getting Shivaay married to the right bride Tia. She did not cared about Tia being humiliated in the society after being dumped like this.
