Pradeep is behaving like a total jerk and chauvinist. He has no moral right to prevent Mona from entering a new relationship. And he's also manipulating his kids in the politics of dog-in-the-manger jealousy he carries on with Mona.

Make no mistake, folks: Kya Hua is not yet a contemporary or progressive serial. Abandoned wives have worked to support their children from the beginning of time. And they have waited for their men to return. Mona has not become "modern" merely because she too is working to give her children a stable future, or because she now wears western clothes and is driven to work in a fancy car. All these are cosmetic signs of "modernity", while she is in fact confined by older "moral" strictures to waiting for her erring husband's return or not having romance and sex again for the rest of her life. Why should the husband who has wronged her have all the fun? Why is sexual fidelity expected of "virtuous" women no matter even if their spouses have not stayed faithful? Mona will be modern in a real and substantial sense only when she snatches the freedom to choose another - more suitable and trustworthy - romantic partner.

Very well said.

Yes, Pradeep is behaving like a complete and utter jerk. He has no right to stop Mona from living again and entering a new relationship. He lost that right a very long time ago after he cheated on her with Anushka. And now he's using his children in his dirty game - disguisting!

I agree that KHTV is no different than the typical Desi serial where the woman waits and finally accepts her husband after he realises that he made a "mistake." The wife is suppose to be the epitome of perfection and regardless of what her husband does, she needs to remain the dutiful wife.

Well, I don't wanna see that here! I would love to see Mona entering a new relationship and faliing in love again. Why not? She has every right to do so and I hope she can find love again with Vineet! He's a thorough gentleman, a good man with a pure heart. I hope that Mona can leave Pradeep behind like a bad memory and move on.

Today's episode again Vineet was too good to face his feelings for Mona, he know it is happening but so much into denial state of mind..he is not able to believe that he actually fallen in love and it is nobody but Mona.

I am sure Mona is totally out of Pradeep, she can't even stand him anymore..just for teh sake of the kids she has put up with his nonsense.Mona has special respect and trust for Vineet and soon it will turn deep feeling for him.
I am sure Mona and Vineet will be together..soon!!!

I partly agree with your post; but I also define freedom as the "choice of being along or romantically involved". If Mona chooses a new romantic partner, doesn't it imply that she is incomplete without a man? (Having said that, I would LOVE to see Mona and Vineet hook up. My objection is to the view that being able to change partners is the only possible symptom of freedom in Mona's case).

Her staying single may not be a sign of "virtue" and "fidelity" towards a cheating husband but simply a convalescence period from her previous nightmarish experience. She needs time to be alone, to sort out her priorities, to look after her children. If you asked Mona, she would probably not consider it a sacrifice. The majority of women, if asked to choose between their "mother" and "wife" roles, would choose being the mother over and above every other option life offers.
Freedom consists of the unfettered pursuit of happiness in whichever way you CHOOSE. Mona's happiness lies with her children. She can have a relationship with Vineet if she feels her happiness lies with him...and not just to prove a point that she can move on like Pradeep. This is not a tit-for-tat game!

@ Blyton: yes, absolutely, freedom is about choices. And yes, of course a woman can be complete without a man. I suppose I'm just infuriated because of the way in which most Indian serials configure "virtue", always automatically conflating it with sacrifice and a willingness to forgo pleasure, in particular, sex and romance. It is also true that most Indian women in Mona's situation opt for the role of mother over that of over because they see / have no other choice : the husband having reneged on his duties towards wife and children, someone needs to hold the family together, and that someone is usually the wife. Even if Mona had begun to have romantic feelings for Vineet, look how Bulbul's sulking and that @#$% Pradeep's "moral" diatribes would have pinned Mona firmly into place as a mother who must come home "in time", who must invariably prioritize her children, even if her husband hasn't thought fit to do so and has in fact jeopardized their emotional well being.

I whole heartedly agree!

Pradeep is the definition of hypocrite- he has no qualms about living with his girlfriend while he is still legally married, but any time Mona "steps out of line" he reminds her that they are married- that he is her husband! There are actually moments when I am watching the show that I really want Mona to rear back and tell him off properly. Usually her arguments with him have to do with how he promised to stay and love her forever and he broke that promise *rolling eyes* I not only like that Mona has become independent from Pradeep and that she is relying on herself now, I LOVE her friendship with Vineet- if it should blossom into something more- I would be even happier because that relationship appears to be a partnership based on trust and equality. Mona and Pradeep's relationship appears to be based on Pradeep always wanting and needing the upper hand.

Agree with you... although, I would not call it "modernity"
"modernity" is committing the same moral mistakes as pradeep did... Mona is mature, she knows what is good and best for her... sleeping with someone else, even when her husband has left her, maybe be modernity... but is not MONA... that would not be the characteristic of MONA...

I like where MONA is standing right now... she has come to a poin t where what Pradeep does or not... really has no importance to her as long as he is not interfering in her life and her children's life...
SHE has no plans of taking vengeance on Anuskha... MONA has moved on... accepted the truth that her husband was a complete jerk... it isn't Anushka's fault... the fault is all Pradeep's... and even then she is willing to let that go, and let Pradeep live peacefully with Anushka... MONA stepped out of that mess and has now created a new life for herself...

but what bothers me is that, Pradeep is not accepting that MONA has moved on without him and his help... Pradeep's problem is his ego... the woman he left and abandoned thinking she will never be able to live without him... has now moved on without him... this is shaking his ego!!!
we all know pradeeps character now... he is sooo unpredictable... and confused.. and a total jerk... after what he did to MONA... he should HAVE NO EGO... to be hurt... topping that, this guy is not even treating anushka properly...

and what bother's me MOST is MONA is silent... she just stands there and listens to everything when Pradeep taunts her... disrespects her... when HE has no right to... she just stands there dumb when she should tell that man to get out of her life once and for all...

when it comes to children i can understand why she is quiet... but i think she should tell bulbul... that no matter how much bulbul wants, MONA can not and will not ever forgive pradeep... i think she should sit with bulbul... and explain to her... bulbul is old enough to understand that it is neither MONA nor Anushka's fault that she and pradeep are separate... it is her father's fault and for that Mona can never forgive him... Mona NEEDS TO talk to bulbul abt her feelings... how much pradeep has hurt her... not that bulbul should start hating her father too... but, just to make her understand that ... going back to that man for Mona is not possible... i am sure bulbul will understand... it will take time, but she will...

Mona will never stop her children from going to their father.. ofcourse, but she NEEDS to atleast tell them that, SHE will never go back to him... even if she CAN forgive him, she can not go back... it just wont be the same... she can NEVER trust him again... MONA just NEEDS to communicate that to her children.. make it clear... especially to bulbul...
