Why Khushi Cannot Reveal About Shyam: Edited - Page 5

I am sorry but I don't agree with you.

When I was growing up, my mom told me 1 thing: "If you have done something and cannot tell me about it for any reason that thing is wrong. You can always come to me and tell what is happening even if it something bad. Only your parents will be there to help you and no one else."

I still have those things in my mind and promote the same with my kids.

Coming back to reference to Khushi, if she cannot tell her parents and is hiding from them than that means she is wrong and does not trust her parents.
Then the love between the family does not matter.
If she is not confident about the relationships in her life than that is her problem and insecurity.
If she voices these opinions to others maybe they will not believe her but will have a doubt in their minds.
She does not have to say to others that he is molesting or harassing her, but just say that she is uncomfortable in his presence and then people will look out for her.
Giving reasoning as to why she cannot tell this person or that person just highlights the weak relationship between members of the family.
If she cannot trust her family then she is better of without them and should not stay here.
After all the self respect is what makes you and breaks you.

Everything you have written is true Rima but this is not true for Khushi. If she is shown to openly tell Shyam I will slap you - then the CVs are not portraying her as a straight out victim. They are showing us that she is trying to fight. If she is trying to fight then she should be shown trying to fix this problem. The more days she is quiet the more dangerous and daring Shyam will become because to him and any aggressor, your silence means getting away with it. And that is why the forum wants her to open her mouth. Silence means acceptance to these creeps. Silence means permission and silence means getting away with it. The shame is theirs, not the victim's.

At this point can she tell Arnav? No. She could have but she thought she knew what was best for everyone. She could have told him even the night of the wedding after the terrace, because she did not know what he saw. Again she misjudged Shyam. Now that the road to Arnav is closed and it is painfully obvious that Shyam has not mended his ways, it should strike her since she clearly DOES NOT want to be a victim and does not want to encourage him, to get an ally. Her sister is there, her Bua is there. Again, if she mistakenly thinks that she can handle things on her own (when it has not worked to thwart Shyam's advances), then this is a costly mistake. Again, her silence is emboldening him and the forum wants her to help herself, not sacrifice herself.

I cannot agree with you more... Khushi is not playing a helpless victim in IPK.

@ Bold... what I want to know is... In yday's episode, Shyam said, go ahead and slap me, atleast you will be touching me... Why she couldn't say, well... you will be touched by my chappal?

isn't it part of the self defense 101 in India? I still think she has many choices, starting with Payal, Bua, Garima and I don't think it is too late to approach Arnav for help either, eventhough she doesn't know that Arnav knows about Shyam...

In Khushi's POV, Arnav already thinks worst of Khushi and told her many times told her that he hates her and is punishing her for something... what more could go wrong if he tells him about Shyam? It can't get worse...can it?
