yeh rishta -- is what about? wedding related, i think? is it saas-bahu format or... ? not saas-bahu actually...kinda youth based show....shows mordern arrange marriage...& also shows the longest wedding in da millenium🤓 but currently its da #1 show in india👍🏼


on zee --

agle janam -- oooh, reincarnation story? what is the setting? is it saas bahu soap or reincarnation format? its not a reincarnation story....its bout a girl who is sold off by her family & stuff...realistic, slow, but very strong!


btw, which is the channel with the baalika vaadu phenomenon -- does no-one watch that anymore? it cums on colours...its a niceshow..or shud i say used to be nice show...dont watch it regularly but watched sum few scenes on youtube...nowadays missing from trp charts🤔

the sony one seems okay... but in the star plus one, i dont think the 10pm slot can be classified as rural.... as in the family is pretty rich, has a hotel business or somethink.... in short they are somewhat like the junejas....and i think their daughters/bahus have their rights and stuff. again this is just what i think and i havent seen the show for a long time so.....=)

princess, saalekh: ''urban/rural'' is not about income/wealth. it's about the social/cultural diversity that is being shown.

and that's obvious from princess' example of the raja ki... show. it's a show 'bout a king/prince -- that's a rich person. but the economic/cultural/social environment of the show is set somewhere away from the cities/places with large fractions of people from multiple societies and communities.

so i'd place raja ki... as a show centered around ''rural'' sensibilities. if you are from a city, you would watch the show and not be willing to live in that kind of a situation.

similarly, saalekh's example is another perfect one. i have seen this show -- pavitra rishta -- and it's a middle-class family in an ''urban'' setting. they are only one of the many cultures/socities in their environment.

btw, this allows me to point out one thing that a lot of people in india get confused about: the poor of india are not only found in ''rural'' places -- like villages. there are vast numbers of poor people in ''urban'' centers. for instance, one of the largest single concentrations of poor people in india are the ''urban poor'' in bombay.

just so that we're not mixing up wealth and the urban/rural difference.

but! except for that -- you are all okay with the categorisation in the table?? can i remove the ''?" marks?

😆 smits!! you put it that way and expect me to say no?

man, you are a good strategist! prem should hire you to do his strategies for him .... except that he's already got me! 😆

Don't go starting a war or anything!! 😉

er... who me? start a war? i'm just ... researching. i really wanted to know. 😆 seriously! why are you looking at me like that??! 😆

I am going to come back to edit this...

'kay. did i get stuff wrong in the table?

but don't you think is an interesting snapshot of things?

have any ideas on how to define ''regressive''? *as opposed to ''reflexive'' where you have done such a good job?? 😆*
