Sorry i have not watched any indian shows prior to kuch rang..
Is pre-nup a new concept for indian TV?? I have heard contract marriages were used before in indian TV.

I know last week few of us were discussing the conditions for sona to accept dev back.. Some of us infact mentioned that in addition to dev apologizing to sona and her family, there should be a pre nup .. God know what the mom and son will do in future.. Given their strange relationship and dev being shravan kumar and all...

Are we happy about the agreement?? Again this will come in to effect only if they both mutually decide to get divorced. So even after dev and ishwari making promises that the breakup wont repeat again.. Will this agreement provide any extra level of assurance for a worried father.. He knows sona will get back with dev eventually..

Personally i feel it is fine by me... It is just to assure bijoy .. It doesnt mean in anyway that he is selling his daughter .. He is just making sure to secure her future and make it difficult for dixits to remove sona from their lives in future .. If at all such situation arises..

Please share your thoughts

I dont think throwing money at Bijoy or Sona will achieve anything but insulting them further. I think maybe Bijoy sets some conditions for him to agree to the marriage ; i.e Let Sona continue working, equality etc.

No she is not throwing money or giving money to sona or bijoy now.. It is a future agreement and will come into effect only of and when they get divorced .. It is just to make it difficult for the divorce .. So that it is well thought and not a quick decision like dev brokeup with sona in hospital.

Yes it is not right according to indian standard to think about divorce even before marriage but how else can they assure bijoy... We were all saying win them back .. But what is the gaurantee that they dont separate again even after dev wins back every member of sonas family.. He broke promises once and he can do it again..

if bijoy want security to his daughter after the marriage then how can he put her self respect at the stake by asking 50% share in dev property?What happened his daughter independence and self respect?Can't she earn her livelihood if Dev leaves her by chance.I feel no modern women with self respect will agree for this as pre nupital condition?This is same as boy demanding for dowry.If her father is asking for 50% share it is a biggest insult to his daugther love,dignity and self respect.

Can't say I am happy at all if this is where the show is heading.
There are 2 agreements mentioned in segments. One where Ishwari transfers half ownership of property to Sona and her family apparently agrees after that.Second the prenup, laying down conditions in case the marriage doesn't work.
If the co-ownership is the reason Sona or Bijoy agrees then their integrity will be compromised big time.Everything they have ever said on the issue of money,null and void. It will feel more like he will be selling his daughter and Ishwari will be the buyer.
Same with the pre-nup and again a big insult to Sona and her family
How will money or property ensure her happiness?
Financial stability? Yes. But she is an independent working woman,why would she need the financial help.
Being given a portion of wealth won't ensure that Dev will stand by her, won't assure that she will not face taunts and insults by Ishwari. In fact all this gives them all the more reason to question her and taunt her.

You are getting me and the concept wrong.. We all know sona is independent and doesnt need anyones money... This contract doesnt give sona the money after marriage but it takex 50% of dixit property after when there is a divorce.. It is an agreement just to make it difficult to get a divorce.(this is very common in USA)

Again i dont think bijoy will ask for it but ishwari will propose the agreement just to convince bijoy that she is damn serious abt devakshi this time


We all know hoe possesive ishwari is about devs property - this should make her thinktwice before thinking of doing anything bad for sona

Shouldn't Dev be the one vouching for the security of his would be wife.. Shouldn't he be the one telling Bijoy that no matter what happens I will stand beside your daughter.. she is not an entity to be thrown away at the beck and call of his mother.. no matter how big of a crazy creepy devotion he may have for his mother..
That's what we wanted right.. a strong Dev- taking control of the entire situation and trying to undo the mess??

How would a pre nup ensure anything? would money give security to his daughter or be equivalent to the trauma she will face if Dev repeats the break up fiasco?

I don't mind the pre nup thing as a concept.. only if these two people were not shown madly deeply in love... beyond the practicalities of love!Also, if at all such a thing did come into picture why is Ishwari the one proposing it..why is she the one taking charge?

Sorry for the long Rant😕

Another thing that comes to mind, we don't know the nature of pre-nup here. It is very much possible that Ishwari makes it such that if the marriage fails then Sona would have no right over the property and thus agrees to waive any right over it(my knowledge in this regards wrt to concerned law is limited ).So on one hand she very smartly transfers property in her name proving her wholehearted acceptance of Sona and on the other hand ensures that the property and money remain in their hands in case the marriage fails. I know its a wild guess for something not even confirmed but it all seems too fishy.
And in all this where does Dev comes into picture? He is the one who needs to prove himself , not Ishwari.
