If a woman loses her virginity before marriage it isn't necessarily a sign that a) she's sex-crazy, or that b) she would offer herself promiscuously to numerous men, or c) try to pass off one man's baby as another's. I realize that some of these ideas about Shravani's sex life are drawn on for comic effect, but I'm not comfortable with such assumptions because they go dangerously close to the "hate-club" / "she's immoral" / "she should be punished" way of thinking. We all want Shravani to somehow disappear so that the lead pair's romance can recommence, and of course the creatives will help everyone feel less guilty about this by turning her gradually negative. They may take recourse to older misogynist ideas (fears, actually) about female sexuality and the need to contain / control it. But as thinking people, people who pride ourselves on our education and progressive thinking........ should we do that too?

Sorry if this hurt you. But tell me who Shravani is. She is just a character and playing her part in a daily soap. If she is acting negative there, it is only the demand of the script. Do normal women behave like the way she does? Are manju, sulochna , rasika etc normal? The characters are written only to create drama, nothing else. Similarly by portraying her in a sex crazy or characterless role I am not trying to draw the any general conclusions on all women of the world. Have you seen the laughter shows on any channels..they tell anything..do anything to make us laugh. Similar was my attempt to create a comic situation. My sole intention was to make everybody laugh. But sorry if it hurt anybody. Now onwards I won't write anything like this, if you guys say.

Manav- nahin main gaane ka intezar kar raha tha..jab jab maine Archana ko gale lagaya tab kaafi achhe gaane baje

Shravani- phir us manhoos aurat ka naam liya tumne? Abhi Ekta ko phone lagati hun..wo gaana baja degi

(achanak "pyasi chudail" naam ki C grade horror film ki dhoon bajne lagti hai. Aur Shravani Manav ko dheere dheere dabochna shuru karti hai)
