Fathers never say hum beti wale hain to ladke wale humein dominate karenge...baar baar ek hi baat bolna,apni hi beti ko neecha dikhana hai...boys and girls r same today...shaadi tak ke kharch divide kiye jaate hain.kisi ek pe dala nahi jata...who says unhe hamare tradition man ne chahiye...

Sona worked there, she knew Dixits were conservative but she didn't realise that they were so inflexible about it that they would not even eat the pure veg food that was prepared for them. Sona was well aware that Dev would never do anything that would make his mother unhappy,so she had no reason to believe that the Dixits would behave this way on the issue of food when Dev was the one who convinced Asha to keep non-veg.
Reality- well in reality no girl would so easily forgive a guy after he shattered her trust the way Dev did.In reality both families would sit like sensible people and discuss everything (clothes, food,expenditure, rituals etc)In reality both families would try to understand and respect each other's cultures instead of mocking it.
In reality fathers would not state that they won't bend to the wishes of groom's family because the groom's family would not be insulting every ritual like the Dixits did.Men and women should be treated equal but the truth is that they are not , even today in a lot of families.In Dixit house the ladies are quite vocal about how they intend to treat Sona(a DIL who will never become a daughter,a DIL who would have to compromise on her happiness and self respect to accommodate her in-laws) so Bijoy is rightly concerned as a father and right to express it.
Traditions of both families could be incorporated during wedding, both families could reach an understanding but the CVs chose to focus on drama and not on maturity.
