What logic would I use to defend a character if not for reasoning based in reality? Is logic differently reasoned when it is on a show versus in reality...? So then, Indian shows can show all sorts of modern 21st century stuff like wife swapping and what not, as part of entertainment but will audience accept it ? No, the show won't work because at some level you wanna see some semblance of reality in your entertainment ( unless you are a sci-fi or fantasy buff)...That is why when I see PR, I like/dislike a character much like how I would like/dislike someone like that in the real world. And that is how I base my reasoning on their actions. It has to match up. showing purvi as the most sanskaari middle class girl with sanskaar bhashans but then doing things that don't match up with her own sayings, is what doesn't make sense to me. Show her to be a modern liberal thinking girl, and I get her actions.
Anyway, like I said, I was questioning you because of your reasoning which had points...I was asnwering SK11 based on what he/she said about how each character is ultimately dependent on CV's so why bother debating...I debate because that is what IF for me is for...
