I'm dissapointed

I've really started to get p****d off at the male dominated atmosphere in the drama.

First thing I was angry about was the neighbours telling her what she is supposed to wear as a DIL. She was also was forced to do the ritual for leaving her house as a daughter.

I really liked what Radha said to her mother that even women who wear a sari with a backless blouse our the blouses are sleeveless they are not judge because they are wearing a sari. What Radha is wearing covers her body and is not "cheap or vulgar" like Radha said.

Then there's the stupid tasks they are going to make Radha do. Obviously the tasks will be cooking, cleaning and serving the family members. I mean that's the only qualities they can have in a DIL. If she can't do any of that then she doesn't deserve to be their DIL.

I can see the story heading towards them moulding Radha into a perfect DIL with her not having an identity of her own and they will show that her change is the right way to go and will praise her for it. It's not like the way she is now is wrong.

LD's family is like those people who brag to other people that "Oh we are soo cultured and religious" and then look down upon those who are not. Everyone has different cultures and ways of connecting to their God and just by showing it to everyone doesn't make you better than everyone else.

I hope Radha puts her foot down and tell them what they are doing is wrong. I want her to reply back to them, but of of course the elders will shout at her saying "how dare you speak back to us"

Just because you are elder to them doesn't mean respect is automatically given to you. You have to earn respect.

LD's family are only going to be able to progress in life if Dadaji doesn't force them to follow his archaic and patriarchal rules.

Radha's mother being there is gonna change the way Radha will have to interact with them ans she will force her to change into one of them. I want Radha to stay they same.

I'm slowly staring to lose interest and just only want to watch LeeRa scenes.

1. Radha's Dad: I love that along with being a supportive dad he is one that is more sensible than Radha. He advices Radha to deal with this new change of course in her life with a bit more cool headedness than she is showing and to not deal with it as if its a disaster but just simply a different course than what she wanted to take. Maybe she can still get to the same destinations she wants to get to just via a different route. Life is often unpredictable in this way and often times what we see as a setback can be used as a

2. Radha's mom: is a typical parent who means well but does not know what "well" for her child is.

3. LD's Family: LD's Dadaji is not as rigid as he appears to be. He is actually one who follows traditions because of strong value sets. He is principled in tradition not cultured in it. However, most everyone else in LD's family like Bua dadi, LD's father, brother and sister-in-law etc are cultured in tradition. They do not know why they follow it. They do it because they have been told that is the best way to live. They don't think beyond that. LD's chachi ji and their daughter are the kind that don't accept traditions but also don't revolt too much for fear of not being accepted. LD's mom on the other hand is the only character in this story so far who is smart enough to choose her battles. She fights for causes that she believes in, and she does so within certain boundaries.

LD: is a confused soul. He tries to do the right thing but he is not a determined character like his mother or Radha. He changes his stand too quickly and gives up easily. He needs a proper support in his mother or maybe in the future in the form of Radha to do what he believes is right.

Radha: She is the character that has the ability to change everyone's thinking but her weakness is her age. She is immature to understand the power she has if only she uses it wisely and she is outspoken enough to come across as a brash and disrespectful person, though she does not intend to be that way.

The best thing that kept me watching this show this week was the fact that Radha didn't change her clothes. Even though her mother and LD tried hard. Even after knowing that she could face issues going to LD's house in jeans, she still held onto her own identity and what she thought was correct. Even after being scolded by Bua dadi she was stern enough to put her argument forward in front of her without accepting that she did something wrong by wearing jeans. I don't think it was that hard for Radha to change her clothes but the fact that she didn't was to prove a point. And that is the point that this show is trying to prove also. The day Radha gives up her fight, I will stop watching also.
