anu, the grounds of feminism and love and marriage are absoluely contorted in this show...Love is as easy as an intense eye lock and/or a pee loon moment...nothing more...a couple of stupid dialogues by the man to his woman and that's it...there is no other angle to this love..which is sad, because love is so so so much more than that...and a large chunk of it is respect for your partner...standing up for him/her, treating him/her right, putting them as your priority...sadly, archana and purvi, have none of these qualities. They only know seduction and sympathy tears as a way of snagging some love, but themselves show no obligation towards a man they claim to love.
Archana's deeds are cringe-worthy as a wife/lover. Mother, I would not liek to use for her, as she has failed miserably on all counts there. But as wife and a woman claiming to love her husband, she has mocked marriage and love both. Manav is just a trophy husband in her life. No respect. she laps up his love and attention, shows some tears when he gives speeches in her honor, and enjoys his eternal affection towards her. But she, sidesteps him while making decisions, over-rides his authority, and in general gives no credence to his decisions. She does as she wants, even if it means ridiculing or stepping over Manav's position as a husband/father. When he is upset, she knows her backless blouses, a little gajra in her hair, her tears on the pretty face or a jadu ki jhappi will do him in..and she uses this to her advantage. I loved aRchana when the show started out, but progressively as some one mentioned, she just got more and more self-obsessed. All about her needs and wants and what she thinks is right. Manav and his feelings can take second place. From court case, to Soham's episode, to thopoing purvi on him, to getting soham into the house without his consent, to everything she does even now, is absolutely self-centered.
Purvi, is no less. Her treatment of Onir, I do not want to talk about, because it was simply outrageous the way she has treated the man who has been nothing short of a messiah in her own messy life. That treatment was pathetic and marriage was mocked, even before his truth came out. So after truth, toh I expect nothing except this high-handed attitude and fake pride, despite her own bag of shameful kaands. But, people are so gaga over the amar prem of arjun and purvi. Did you see how ruthlessly she shred his thought in front of onir today also? She has done this time and again. Dis-respected the man from the time she met him to the time she fell in love and to this point, where apparently people think she still loves him. He is nothing but a used and thrown commoditiy, which she will use to her advantage again now that she has no other option to bank on. She has yelled at him in his own office, she has completely over-ridden his authority on many counts, she has side-stepped his feelings by forcing him into an unhappy alliance for a whole year, she has found it ok to reprimand him in front of his own father, her husband and to one and all. Arjun is nothing but a paltu 🤬 for her, who she at will, removes her frustrations on. Or someone who she will run to when there is no other. Her treatment of men is worse than the mother;s. Both of them, know not a thing about love, respect, marriage. And then these are called pavitra rishtas.
This show is just a very very sick, pervert and twisted view of feminism from the lead's perspectives and only shows us how manipulation under the name of tyaag and bhalai can make you a wife with control over your husband. The way to a successful marriage is some anti ageing cream, wet hugs in the rain and some damsel in distress tears. Basically, everything that most of us do not do. LOL> :P
