"It is the decision of the channel and a demand of the script. Personally I'm not in favour of such things but I cannot force my views on a show," says Smriti Irani a.k.a. Tulsi who has witnessed two rapes in the show. "Audiences are smart and educated these days. Actors are professionals and have to be ready for everything," she adds.
Another bahu, Juhi Parmar a.k. a. Kumkum is even more candid in her defense and blames it on the TRP game. "It all depends on the channel and is the demand of the script. But the way it is being projected and presented is very important. It should be aesthetically shot and not look obscene," she argues.
So, Juhi thinks rape scenes are okay, as long as they are aesthetically done
