yes it is true...where do u stay? oh ok iceland!! many of us are born and brought up in foreign countries, including me, visiting india just once in a while...ok we know a lot about indian culture and we are ourselves truely indian from within but we get this culture from our parents, relatives, when we celebrate festivals, etc...seriels are something that we see everyday and over a period of time, especially if we have been seeing these seriels since we were studying in school, over the period of time it gets into our head and our respect for relationship like post marriage relationships reduce and i can hear many of my friends saying that they dont want to get married and stay with husband's parents, etc and that they wont marry a guy who insists to stay with his parents and so on...actually there is nothing wrong in staying with ur in-laws as is very common with indian families...but our generation is getting wrong pictures and ideas about a lot of things and slowly the culture we have been respecting since childhood is seeming to loose respect with regard to many aspects!! Atleast in my case, i am really scared thinking of the fact that wat if i will have to stay with my husband's family members and what if they are not nice to me 😭 !!

Its easy to get sucked into the bubble...but we need to learn to distinguish truth from fiction. On the other hand, we cannot look at the world through rose-tinted glasses, these things HAPPEN, you may not hear of them, but they do. Families split up because of money, women marry older or richer guys just for their money and mother-in-laws torture their bahus to death. It happens, we just don't like to think about it, because thinking implies action and the willingness to change, and people are afraid of change. People are afraid to make a stand for the things they believe in, so they pretend they don't believe in anything.

Case in point, during the Mukti rape case, we were outraged on her behalf. We wanted to kill Sharad, to torture him to death. What if that happened to someone you know? Or for that matter, it is happening in the real world NOW, but why aren't we as incensed? Why aren't we that passionate about a random but REAL girl but we are about a fictional character? Because on TV, everything is onedimensional--we cannot actively affect that...so we scream at our tv screens and make plans of what we would do to such characters freely because we know that it would never come down to us--we will not have to actually do anything. In real life, making such a decision requires perseverance and strength of mind...it requires us to actually ACTIVELY do something...and people are, fundamentally, selfish.

Oh come on! Indian kids watch more than just Ekta's shows...The Bold and the Beautiful, The O.C. Buffy? And yet no one complains that these shows are bad influences?? Come on, Buffy is all about vampires! That doesn't mean that kids go around sucking their friends' blood, or playing with wooden stakes...The kids on the O.C have been through more drama than any other K characters, and they are only teenagers!! I'm not taking a dig at anyone here, but in general, people just like to attack Ekta, for whatever reason. The truth is that kids and teenagers in India (and all over the world) are much more aware of things than previous generations, and not all of that is Ekta's influence. It is the MTV generation, the hip-hop culture and the changing world that affects these kids. Ekta is just a very small part of that world.

Besides, people should be able to discern the difference between real life and obvious dramatic fiction...its not that hard.

i agree i think that the woman are overreacting if they go home

8.30 they will watch kasautii 10.30 kyunki saas 10 kahaani

The same people who are protesting would be the one to watch K-Serials regularly. and if you are against it don't watch it

the k-serails have the highest rating

i'm not defending ekta but i think the protest is stupid !!

Well reading all points into consideration... 😉 😆
I agree with Vasu, coz well... basically uv sed evrything I wanted to say, for me! 😃

About Ekta, personally I think she shouldnt give a damn about watevr those ppl who protested against her. Its a world where society and culture is changing, ppl have gotta accept that. And these things, such as multiple marriages, rape, murder etc etc happen (however not to the extent Ekta portrays it in her soaps!) As Vasu sed, its fiction, so shouldn ppl take Ekta's soaps as a pure form of entertainment? And let her be as be!
If them ppl feel that their children are taking things the 'wrong way' then isnt it their responsibility as parents to tell their OWN children 'Beta it dusn really happen like this in real life!' or are the parents that sensitive and stupid to realise THIS IS REALITY-upto some extent. Considering soaps such as KZK, KSBKBT KGGK etc they arent meant for 'KIDS' NEway.
When I mean kids a certain level of maturity is required for them to watch these type of serials.

Personally, I think those women are wasting their time! I think they should find sumting more important to protest about such as JUSTICE for women who get raped, murder cases and the murderer is let free coz he's rich, drug cases... the list is endless.
My messege to these women... Leave the entertainment industry ALONE!!
