I actually think what you wrote is pretty eloquent and I do agree. Dhara/their family/their society has a mentality where if the elders are not addressed by their relationship title it will come across as disrespect or insult. In fact, maami would probably be the first one to taunt that ShiSh are not respecting rishita if they call her by name. Such people don't/can't understand that respect is actually in one's mind and the manner of addressing shouldn't matter, and sadly need such titles to register the fact that there is respect. It is equally sad that even though the manner of calling is completely hollow without any real respect behind it (bhabhi from Shiva to rishita) it has to be done to keep up appearances and for society's sake.
So I understand where dhara is coming from and why she wants Shiva/Krish to call Rishita/Raavi as bhabhi, but god, I hate her biases and her methods of getting what she wants so much 🤢😆
Thank you! 🤗
It always seems like I am supporting Dhara 🤣 I agree with her on the Bhabhi thing but nothing else.
I am actually frustrated as hell with her. She should actually learn from Rishitha- just be frank. Since Dhara is generally tactful, if she starts being frank, people will digest it easily. Tackle the actual issue, not this roundabout way. People, especially adults, get irritated if you treat them like kids. If she stopped being Maa, I think everything would have fallen in place easily.
And why on earth is she fed up in the first 15 days of the marriage. I would have understood if they had been doing this for a year or so
