Come on Guys! This is much better than those ekta kapoor's show where the sati savitri bahus go on ranting about their culture and values and face difficulties that never seem to end in those bahu's lives.
You guys make those shows shoot the TRPs and such these shows, which depicts practical lives of women in India, are put down in the name of negativity.
Go out and see the world around you. I know many girls, who even after their marriage help their parents secretly or publicly.
You know how difficult its for both girls and their families?
The dowry, infanticide,saas-bahu athyachaar are not the only evils, such men oriented families also givesrise to evil systems in our society. So wake up and get awared!

@s_sue: loved what you wrote. exactly this show is showing the practicality....all that actually hapens n can happen with anyone at any pt of time in life. no mater how much modern menfolk become but at the back of mind the diff between men and women and the perception that they are superior is always there.

yes, it is difficult to suport ur mayeka after marriage. even if ur family has no objection then also the ques of ur in laws rises every now n then moreover i have seen girls suporting their families secretly ......

the show has a lot of reality to it. not like the usual drama of vamps coming into the hero's life n then all the same story....

.concept of the show is realistic ....most middle class girls feel ironies like this ...n most real husbands n Mother in-laws are like that ..they r hardly sympathetic & sensitive to wat a girl feels after marriage ..when she is expected to forego all her obligations to her parental family 😭

people In india hardly marry without loads of dowry😡

....well i can say tht execution of the soap can be faster ..n can be improved.

Trust me ! I found this serial much better than those ekta kapoor's serials, which never end and has clumsy and unbelievable story.
So many rebirths, come-backs, plastic surgeries, ideal Hindustani Bahu's saga, endless woes, etc etc.
This shows you the realities. No unnecessary love stories, drama and 'rona dhona'!

It is very hard to watch an educated girl and a single mom of four children taking all the abuse and not realizing that the family they are marrying into is extremely abusive and criminal in nature.

In the show Avni and her family had a choice, Avni could have married Maskara but she is dumb enough to believe each and every lie her future husband tells her, which is very hard to swallow. The serial is depicting women as stupid, who can be taken for a ride by a criminal minded men.

The working women in India are very aware and times are changing. I have many friends who got married without dowry.

^ Exactly! I know of many middle-class young women in India who had 'love marriages' and thus, were married without the need of dowry. Even my friends who had 'arranged marriages' had them without dowry. Times are certainly changing and there's no way in heck this show is representative of any kind of majority.
And please, this show is no better than Ekta maiya's OTT crapfests....they fall in the same oppressive brand of TV with their cowering lead 'heriones' and excess of caricature-like villains. But at least Ekta hardly ever claimed to show 'reality' with her programs. It was always clear to her audience that her shows were so outrageously exaggerated and melodramatic that there's no way they can, or should be taken seriously. Her audience has always seen her brand of programming as escapist fantasy. However, when a show like 'Dor' claims realism, then that is exactly what viewers expect! Unfortunately, what has been depicted so far is so archaic and cartoonish in its development of characters, that it simply cannot be taken as realism. If this show was realistic at all, the supposedly independant and positive characters would not be depicted as being so idiotic, senseless and without foresight, and similarly, the 'bad' characters would be shown as more ambiguous in their morality.
There is no such thing as realism on desi TV.

Well I m not finding this show boring..Actully Maryada ,SGP & Dor only 3 shows of SP I liked so far..
Talking about the Characters...Well Characters are not that out the world ...There are people Like Avni's Sasooral I hv seen many families like this..Still In our society the marriage is big concern..Specially for the Girls..parents go ahead If the find a Guy well ..I find the Touch of that Real Grey ,Hypocrist ,Naive and Greedy People's Shadow on this show..
on Lead girl Part , I dont blame Avni for not speaking up atleast for now..Its just New marriage ..everything around her is New ..She will take time ,Understand things and than go ahead with her actions...You simply cant expect her start go loud and Hak ki Ladaai and all At very First week of marriage..
All and All I liked this show..I do Watch when ever I get time..Its Better than Simply Ridiculous and Crap shows Who are so called High TRPs shows..
