Jassi should have signed it

One good thing about Jassi, ever since its arrival a couple of years ago, is that the serial has always been progressive in its attitude and storyline, and has perhaps been the only non saas-bahu show to shine in the ratings chart.
And I was glad that they dealt with the controversial issue of pre-nuptial agreements, something so alien to our third world.
But it's a pity that Jassi and her fianc chickened out of signing the document, using the tired excuse of 'there's no need for paperwork in love'
. What a waste of an opportunity. Jassi ought to have gone ahead with the deal, and demonstrated to her many middle-class female viewers the importance of this tool in a world where marriages don't last. A world where love is a four-letter word.
