Story so far:

Dev worships Easwari
Easwari treats Dev as her prized possession
We have a disgruntled Neha in the mix
Enter Sona who was brought for Easwari health
Sona and Dev fall in love
Sona the smarter of the two tells Dev that Easwari does not like her
Dev worships Easwari..so falls in deaf ears
Easwari accidentally overdoses
Dev panics and breaks up with Sona
Easwari got what she wanted but accidentally..so she thinks good riddance Sona let us send her to Ritwik land..wrong move
Dev goes bat crazy and starts questioning Easwari..the worship seems to be on shaky ground
Easwari strategize and begs Sona to come back
She hit 2 mangoes with one stone
Dev worships Easwari and along with him a new Bakra Sona joins the clan of followers
Neha comes back citing poverty...Easwari thinks..I don't want to go back to poverty
Enter lawyer..Easwari thinks wow this is jackpot let me ask Dev to sign
By now Dev does not have time to worship Easwari as he is trying to woo his lady loves family
Easwari plots( maybe she goes to any ends to get what she wants Khatri angle?
Gets Dev to sign using deceit
Dev is back to worship mode ofMaa because she brought his sona back
Sona falls ill
Dev comes to know but who does he think to say it to his Maa because she did bring Sona back
Easwari thinks aw this is quite opportune

Story ahead..in my dreams
In the meantime Sona gets the pre nup and questions Dev , Dev connects to dots..and it leads to Maa..she now tries to use the vansh card..but Dev does not agree

The two bakras are slaughte d...light bulb goes on

Dev renounces all his wealth and moves with the Bose family..enuf references in the serial of ghar
Jamai

Starts biz maybe with Saurabh
Enter Neha who uses this to get the wealth back and Ranveer
Of course Neha knows her mother so Easwari can play no tricks

The dixits lose the wealth again

Sona sees the plight of Easwari mends her relationship with Dev

Dev and Sona with the 7% chance have a baby

Easwari blesses them
Sub ham
Pleas don't kill me for this post😉

Worships Ishwari🤣Dev's life summed up in two words.
Dev connecting the dots(for once), renouncing his wealth(after all mommy only wants money money),becoming ghar jamai is such a blissful thoughtI like your wild imagination, keep your rambles, sarcasm and imaginations coming.

@Tia Truly yar, your posts have become an addiction.These days I am more eager to read and vent out in your posts than I am to watch the show😆Every night I log out knowing some more amazing views will be waiting in your post the next morning.

As I read a lot of discussion on the non-veg issue, I'll add my 2 cents as well.As a lot of you pointed that eating non-veg is a personal choice and one should not be looked down upon just because of her/ his personal choices or even religion or culture for that matter .Also I understand that the older generations are more rigid in their beliefs and unwilling to accept views which are contradictory to their religions or beliefs.I think it is very important for people to respect everybody's beliefs and choices.As important as their religion is for vegetarians, it is equally important for the non-vegetarians. But unfortunately there are many who disrespect and look down upon others on just this basis.This sure needs to change and if we, on our personal level do not even try to make these people(even if it is our family members)to understand this then how will we see this change.Everbody has the right to live life as per their own choices.

As for the show if we look at only the food issue, I would agree that it does happen that way in real life many times and people instead of trying to find solutions start the name calling.My first thought was that now days in weddings, food is served in separate rooms so it would not really be an issue for Dev to arrange this.

But the point of the post was hypocrisy and not food😆Still I added my long rambles, couldn't resist.And yes Ishwari is a big hypocrite. And writers are adding anything to up the drama quotient.

I'm myself a bong and yes a non veggie. But I don't find her feeling so aghast at the matter of non veg food unnatural and hypocritical. Non veggies can go along with both veg and non veg but for veggies it isn't the same. Veggies genuinely have a lot of trouble when non veg food is served in the same area and even more when its near religious stuff. Its simply a belief and a practice and intimately revolves around ones life. My friend once shouted on me when I touched her books after having an egg. :P So her apologising to God for that isn't something new. Ishwari's conscience doesn't hit only while manipulating her son toh I don't expect her repenting to God about that . Humans are all in general hypocritical in some way or the other. The post here strongly criticises being a vegan in general as well at many lines with the silk and stuff as examples . Underlying that's calling whole vegan thing hypocritical. Thats not needed I feel. This whole veg and non veg issue is extremely common and happens in most inter cultural marraiges. And they handled it quite well I feel. About the medical issue. Yes its confidential. But family has the right to know it. Ishwari isn't an outsider. She will be her mother in law. Its not like Dev went and told RadhaRani. Its a big thing. This isn't back biting but awaring someone of a truth. People usually throw in a big ruckus of deceiving people from health related matters in marraiges. Its better to stay clean. If Dev had a health problem Sona's parents would have liked to be aware of the matter. I'm sure Sona wouldn't also like keeping people in the dark.

I strongly support your view. When I read this post ( TM's) I really felt depressed. Being a vegetarian I can understand how Iswari must have felt.I can not even be where Non Veg is served.That is a genuine problem for vegetarians. Still Iswari agreed that itself is good.Why should she be blamed if She asked her God to forgive? As for the deceit that is attributed to her due to the ignorance of CVs I mean getting the papers signed by Dev, I feel dejected . Pre nup in no way is a matter to be handled by one partner's mother and his lawyer. The issue was used to degrade Iswari's Charecter more and more. What is the difference between Ekta Kapur's Saas Bahu Sagas and this serial? The Medical report of Sona should be known to her,her parents,Dev and his mother. It is not a couple issue. Indian marriage unites two families not two persons.Both the parents have every right to know and discuss before the marriage itself. If Dev wants to tell his mother it is not a crime. Like Asha and Bijoy should know,Iswari also should be aware of it.
Seven percent chance means nill chance of conception. My friend has ten percent chance ,five years she tried invain. Doctors advised her to go for either adoption or surrogacy. But I am sure here they will show Sona conceived and her child is denied Dev's property share. I want to shout from roof tops Pre nup protects Children's right to share the property and never allows such stupid clauses as shown in our great realistic serial.

And maybe as a Punjabi what I can understand you can't. This is what is known as cultural difference.

So let's respect that difference.

That is why dear I said let's agree to disagree.

I also agree with Payal here. Although I don't support that and I believe everyone should co-exist peacefully, but if something really bothers you (smell/the thought etc), then just because of the ego or likings of the other party, it's not wise to continue with that idea. It's not a battle 😃. While vegeterians sometimes absolutely go nuts about the non-veg thing (I have seen mostly in South Indian Brahmins), and it's like they can't have it, for nonvegeterians what's the problem in adjusting for 1 day or 5 days .. Remaining 360 days have as much as you want na 😆
Plus, there are some outstanding delicious dishes in veg, while vegeterians can never enjoy any nonveg dish, nonveggies sometimes really love some specific veggy dishes. What's the harm in it .. I am with Asha on this Not her fault if Dev babu got emotional and approved of nonveg 😆

P.S. - Some of my absolute favorites from Veg - ANY damn thing of Paneer, Dhokar Daalna (Bong preparation), Alu-posto (Poppy seeds), Alur Dom , Potoler Dorma, Doi Potol, and the last but not the least - the famous chenchra 🤣 / lyabra whatever you call it.

OMG I am such foodie ❤️

I agree... I'm not disrespectful to anyone but when there are many ways to solve this issue then why anyone has to compromise? That's what I'm saying... I respect every culture and religion...Let's see what happens in this show

Arre they are hypocrites, naa. CVs ne socha hoga ke idhar unko aaj onion aur garlic se bhi problem dikhate hai aur udhar omeletter khila dete hai.

Waise, Dev ka surname Dixit hai na? Madhuri Dixit to non-vegetarian hai. Apne pati ke liye Shrimp curry banati hai? Problem create karne ke liye kuch bhi karte hai CVs.


Madhuri Dixit is a Maharashtrian Dixit and by caste is a GSB (Gowd Saraswat Brahmin). This caste originally belonged to Goa and because of the Portuguese invasion, some moved upwards (towards Konkan) and rest moved downwards (towards Mangalore, Udupi etc.). This is besides the point. However because these set of people always lived near the coast, fish and other sea-food have been a staple part of the diet. My husband is a GSB and hence I know.

Now there are Dixits based in UP who are pure vegetarians and they are nowhere connected to GSBs as well. I know this because my best friend is a Dixit from UP. They normally don't use DIXIT. They spell it out as DIKSHIT (like Sheila Dikshit, former CM, Delhi).

And coming back to your post, I don't think there is anything wrong if Ishwari asks that non-vegetarian food not be kept in the wedding. Normally many people avoid bringing meat or any kind of non-veg stuff near a place where religious activities are scheduled to be performed. I have attended a lot of weddings (from all castes) and normally the meal after the wedding/pheras don't include non-veg but they do have non-veg during reception.

What I did not like however was Ishwari praying to God to forgive her for keeping non-veg during the wedding. That was utter non-sense. She should instead ask God to forgive her for all her previous sins and not make her kids pay for the deceits she has done.

yeah agree with you, I'm a Hindu from Mauritius, normally during the wedding day there in no non veg food, everyone is treated with pure veg briyani before/after the pheras and on the reception depending on the choice of the family, both veg & non veg food is served.

But coming to the show, Dev mentioned he read somewhere that non veg (maybe he said fish) is very important for bengalis. I tried to google about bengali wedding rituals but didn't find anything like that..

Please do correct me if I'm wrong.

her son created a chaos by getting drunk in sona's family function..but all is to be forgiven and forgotten because they are "the ladk wale" and so called pure people🥱
What irritates me the most is the Prenup agreement! If anybody mentions such a thing the first thought being a parent should be never ever things should ruin to such an extent that their son will end up being a divorcee but here it looks like she is all mentally prepared and awaiting for such a thing to happen

This is where reasonable accommodation comes into consideration. What does a vegetarian person do in a school? Or a food court? Or in a hotel while travelling? Where other children or people serve and eat Non-vegetarian food? They sit in one table even beside a table where other people are probably eating hard core Non-vegetarian food and concentrate on their food, not on others. But here even a separate room serving Non-vegetarian food is supposed to be offensive.

Another example, if I take your logic, then I will have to conclude that a pure vegetarian person will never attend any Non-vegetarian person's wedding regardless how close friends they are. But that's not the case. They do attend other culture's wedding and do eat at the vegetarian section. Same with office parties. And why is that? Because it's someone else's wedding.

Besides most wedding doesn't happen where food is served anyway. Usually where weddings happens as in Mandap is set up, the food counters other than a coffee machine or people serving starters are not set up there. No other food is allowed there anyway. And since starters can be pure vegetarian, again not an issue.

Sikh weddings are done in Gurdwara - a holy place. If the wedding was taking place in temple then yes. It's then reasonable to demand vegetarian food. But that does not compare with a hotel or banquet hall. People don't close down a restaurant because they have hired a banquet hall in the same hotel for the wedding and non-vegetarian food will ruin that. Also pure vegetarian people do hire banquet hall where previously, possibly even the day before a non-veg wedding might have taken place. They don't demand the history of the banquet hall.

So the conclusion of the story is, people impose their will on other where they can. And no, reasonable accommodation can be expected from even pure vegetarian people. The same accommodation that they make for their friends, colleagues, or even strangers at a food court; the same consideration they expect from others, yet refuse to make for a family that is going to be joined with their family by marriage. Like I said, a closed mind can never stop making excuses while an open mind makes relationships.

Food can be a very sensitive issue and I am not blaming Ishwari here. For a non vegetarian it is very Easy t to be magnanimous but for a vegetarian the sight or smell of non veg can be vomit inducing . They might not even like anyone touching them after eating non veg.

I am a punjabi and am supposed to eat non veg but my son can't tolerate the idea of killing and eating an animal and doesn't allow me also. I know plants have life and all but somethings are just a matter of personal thought process. Also it is perfectly possible for a non vegetarian to eat vegetarian but vice versa is just not possible.

Further in North India marriage is considered a yagna and hence non veg is not permitted. Even in Sikh weddings there is no non veg in the wedding function as marriage is done in gurdwara.

So even the theory of two halls is not tenable as for the Dixits the entire marriage process will be vitiated.

Saurabh and Elena are immature, Dev is bending over backwards to get in Bose good books but Bijoy and Asha were supposed to show some common sense and consideration. Bijoy is literally acting as insensitive as Ishwari.
