Zahra Merchant - Best mom so far! - Page 2

Well as per the rules, each of them has to live the others' life for the 1st 4 days. So Zehra was trying to handle the jobs as Antima was handling; on the other hand, Antima had to live at Zehra's house with Zehra's attitude. So she was acting like Zehra wd have done(spending her time at spa etc). They are given inputs by the channel regarding each other so that they can spend the first 4 days not like they will do, but the way their counterpart has been living.

Its obvious Zehra had been spending most of her time at the spa, she even doesnt cook dinner, they get it from outside daily. Is it healthy? If she is a caring mom, she shouldnt be getting food from outside.

And the way she shouted at Antima that 'my daughter has been born with a golden spoon, why did you make her work at the kitchen?' What attitude she has got? If she was not ready to accept any changes that wd be done by anyone else, she shdnt hv participated in the show.

Is there some link in which they explain all the rules and regulations for this exchange........because the show has some very grey areas in which one family agrees and the other does not.

What happens if they don't want to accept the changes.............since this can only be found out at the end of the 8 days. This is very different from 'wife swap' where the rules are much clearer.

I agree that Antima was living Z's life no arguments about that..............that is the luck of the draw for the participants and they obviously have agreed to it.

But Z's attempts and the way she (bad language not excused) got around all the issues was probably done in a more acceptable way than Antima who suddenly out of the blue decided on a 530 am walk which she or her family never do.

The fight was unnecessary and ugly but I think that goes with the territory of this show.

Zahra won hands down both husbands came across like idiots
Again editing has left grey areas and voice over was bias
Next week looks interesting

Zehra was undoubtedly the best Mom!!! I just love that kind of person!!!

I think the one thing each episode is shown that there is no perfect mom. One person is good in one way, while the other is in the other way. Zahra no doubt paid better attention to the children. On the other hand, Zahra's ego couldn't not handle the truth that she does not give respect to her mother-in-law. Raising her daughter "with a golden spoon" is giving her no advantage in life. She will not know the value of hard work, money, or respect for elders. If she ever has to enter the real world, or ever leaves India to live abraod, she won't be able to cope.

Yes I agree with you.........boasting about how you have brought up your child specially 'with a golden spoon' did not go down well and is in no way showing her prowess as a good mother. Sure with their status, they might have spoiled her but not to the extent where it harms her for life. I think that is a very good point you have mentioned.

I agree.. she was really interested in kids .. I liked her overall

Looking at everything I feel Pooja is best mom so far.. Agreed that Zehra was awesome with exchange kids and did well but the way she has raised her daughter with no responsibility certainly does not make her to be the best.. so from that point I feel Pooja is the best considering everything.

Yes I would agree with you about Pooja's involvement being the one that came out the best.................living the life she led...........I must say she got down to the basics without batting an eyelid.

I hesitate to put a label of Best mom on anyone..............as it is rather subjective and............... against what are we comparing this nomenclature to???? The others in the show????...........that may not be entirely fair as some of them have been rather odd in their behavior..........at least for me.

Agreed.. labeling someone best mom will not be truth as nobody is perfect but rankings are done between options available within the group.. As this show is all about moms, it is natural to compare between all the moms on this show.. hence best mom within that framework I guess... 😊
