Sacrificial Heroine Once Again

Once again we see an educated woman decide to keep silent about the abuse she is going to endure as it if is part of her destiny and that she is willing to do this to keep her family happy.
I would have welcomed a good reason for her to endure this suffering and I would have welcomed her to even confide in someone for it but we have NO reason other than a made up one and that is the hypothetical stress that her mother will endure.

I would have embraced the fear she would have if they found it was BulBul who loved Purab and what it could have done.

I can tolerate Abhi being a jerk to Pragya although the rationale behind it stupid - forcing Purab to marry his spoilt sister - and I even stomach Aliya and Tanu...but what I cannot tolerate is Pragya's willingness to endure this misery as her destiny - do it at least so your sister and Purab can bet married; till your mother can get a doctor and get healthy and then when you have the chance, leave...but to live this way ALL your life and suffer in silence - or at least a year as Abhi intends? What message does that send?

We are in the 21st century; I can understand this silence of women in the 60s, 70s and even up until the 90s but today? EK stop sending us women back into the dark ages; your story-lines are getting stale, predictable and boring.

i just want Pragya to be smart and play the aliya abhi game on their face

Pragya should get Purab and Bulbul married ...this will be the best answer she can give to abhi aaliya tortures


in kasam se bani did the same . she silently beared jai torture but smartly got her sister pia married to her lover and jai was not able to do anything

i hope Pragya will be smart enough like Bani

I agree with your views..I seriously cannot understand why Ekta is making her leads like this.. In today's world, we are taught to raise our voice against the injustice done to us and we do stand up.. why don't they show their leads as a fighter who fights against all the odds which is something real...

This is my biggest problem too. Especially after having shown Pragya so well educated and brave enough to fight against a rockstar's family for a cause. Now when it came to her own life, she is turning out to be so weak. Maa ka bahaana is not convincing enough.

I kind of get the whole scenario. Pragya is a woman who has had many rejections and two broken marriages. And also the fact that this marriage was forced upon her.

Understood that people want her to fight back and blah blah... the mahilla mukti morcha is up in arms against the injustice meted out. But what I dont get is how hypocritical can abhi get? He slapped the hell out of suresh coz he was under the impression that his brother's life was ruined coz of suresh's sis. but the truth came out and abhi was left with egg on his face.

Secondly, abhi married pragya in unfortunate event of circumstances to take revenge only on the stupid premise that his sister saw pragya with purab? How laaammmeee!!!! Thodi akal bhi istmaal karta toh muhe pe tamacha na padne ka mauka aata. Gadha kahin ka. And the less said abt aaliya, the better.

Who tannu? Womaniser abhi's mistress? Pls she would be rafa dafa in no time, if she were to be packed off to timbaktu. Only hope that pragya fights this on her own and doesnt take the help of purab or BB.

Agree!
If sacrificial heroines are one extreme portrayal, the westernized girl as a vamp is another extreme.
Look how they show Tannu as a vamp here for example.

Women who express sexuality, independent free spirit, refuse to tolerate certain restricting family values, wear sexy clothes gotta be vamps!

Abhi was complete devil yesterday...wanted dadi to slap him. Both brother and sister are showing such disgusting attitude becoz of their wealth...my wish God takes all that away...at this moment, I can still understand her ( though I don't approve it, and had loved if she had slapped three devils)...as she is trying to understand the situation keeping in mind all circumstances...but in the long run I want her to show both brother-sister their due place.
