is NBT really based on unrealistic story - Page 2

It's a nice discussion. I think society is changing very fast... such things are rare but still these incidents exist in our society. Personally I never came across an incident of widow remarriage but I know someone who married second time to a bachelor.
With the exposure to education & new communities things are progressing forward. However, in north India there are villages where people don't allow remarriages. And still child marriages happen.
We can not simply over rule the fact that widow remarriages don't happen or no bachelor accepts a widow with children.

Being from outside of India this is a normal thing (especially if the widow is still young) however I can definitely say it is not due to love that they get married as the ones I have observed have all been arranged marriages to bachelors in India. So my thought on it is that the bachelor doesn't care if whom he marries as long as he is able to come abroad.

The person I know here is a widow who had a 2 year old son when her hubby died. The son was living with his paternal grandparents for the past year in India apparently due to financial reasons. When her hubby died she went back to India for the funeral and did not bring her son back with her when she came back however I believe around 6 months later she brought him back (I believe it had something to do with with issues with inlaws).
6 months after that she was back in India to get re-married (arranged). She ended up leaving her son there with his paternal grandparents again and although she says she wants to bring him here I highly doubt she will as she now has a one year old son with new hubby and has not bothered in 2 years to go her son from her first marriage who is now 6 years old and has only basically spent the 1st 6 months of his life with his mom and then again for about another 6 months when he was around 3.

I feel really sorry for the kid...

@meghan432: Jaak onek din por tomake natun thread khulte dekhe vesh bhalo laglo...Tomar thamma asha kori ekhon bhalo ache...Jai hok u have raised a good point here...About the concept of NBT I think it's very much realistic and much needed concept in the social scenario of Indian society...Here a man who lost his wife and having kids can marry a unmarried woman (One of my relative did this) but when a widow with kids fallen in love with a bachelor or marry him then those so called self employed saviors of society and culture start to raise their eyebrows against this...That's why this kind of thing is rare in society even in fictional world like telly world or movie world also...In this context, NBT creates a milestone in the history of indian telly...They are working to show the process of building up of love between a widow and a confirm bachelor...They intended to even the dried up heart of an widow can be flourished with the shower of love...Great effort I must say...I would like to "kurnish" colors or CVs of NBT for showing courage to present a daily soap on such sensitive issues and showing it so beautifully...

And I think now the debates over unreality in NBT is going on here in IF is not against the concept of this telly rather the approach they are showing it here in NBT...This new director is showing some weired things and I think it would be better if those things can not be shown... But still it's a fiction and if CVs are showing this story without some melodrama then it would be finish with in 2 or 3 months...So CVs have their own constraint and we have to compromise with it...Because till now I don't find any serials in indian telly more realistic and logical than NBT, not even the so called reality shows...
