What's Your Openion On This ? - Page 2

Well honestly speaking the CVS have shown anusuya this mahan for the show, Bcz there is no clues in history about this.

Every woman or saying every wife was like kadika, who had no influence on her husband and children. And in the show the queens are at least facing society, as much as I have known they were not allowed to speak such freely to anyone, even they used to meet the members of royal society and court by remaining behind curtains.

The sole reason was that it was male dominating society where men were no less than god for women. The society was highly male superior where wives used to do sati and jauhar, so women conducting multiple marriages was a long gone story for them.

Even when Philip came to know Cleopatra was going to give birth to daughter, he was ready to accept Alexander, so we conclude the situation .

During the era of Vijayanagar and mainly moguls, we can see this system demolishing a bit, as we can see Jahangir's wife had two marriage and had more influence on the kingdom and court than him.

Cleopatra ,razia sultana ruled as strongest rulers .

Well talking about draupadi due to her daredevil personality which is that of anusuya, made her a legend and example .

Well the main cause was the thought, Bcz sita never objected ram whether it was agnipariksha or when he abandoned her.

So the women and both society had that mindset that women were only confined to house work. So we can say...

but some queens like jodha did had an influence on husband decision. It was not like that all the queens were like kadika...mostly were i agree but not all. I am sure even here queens are not exposed to rajya people much ...warna how nobody recognized anusuya even when she was roaming in the kingdom for 21 years. I agree...all i have been reading this only...that was a male dominated story...and womens emotions got no importance at that time...even when princesses did feel that emotion of jealousy ...their hearts also wished for loyality from their husbands...they had to give to their fate sadly ...and for a good and peaceful life...they ended up befriending the other wives of her king.

In ancient times women condition was very bad...even though women condition in Greece and Egypt was much better they were still considered as lower than men...men had all the power...but there were few strong women who rose and challenged men power such a Olympia of Albania also known as Alexander the greats mother , Tomirus, Baudica, cleopatra..

i agree...it was...the more you read...the more you feel bad ...i am glad and thankful to all those women who rose above the system and gifted us what we got today.

This show is utter nonsense...Poras son was older than Alexander and was killed in the battle of hydespas also known as jhelum...Philip was great warrior not just a drunkard ...also Darius was king of the world as Persia was the greatest power at that time...and he is shown as sadakchap lukha...battle of Gugemela between Alexander and Darius is regarded as the greatest battle of all times...

i understand that a lot of distortions are there in this show like the age of main leads. But philip isnt just shown to be drunkard and darius a lukha. Philips introduction was from the point where he won a kingdom.. ..and darius is shown to be king now...he comes out to be one of the most intelligent person in the show...but i doubt battle between alexander and darius will be given the deserved importance as the show is more about porus and is written from an indian point of view.

I think people make a very big deal about Polygamy. Yes Polygamy is not right but wife abandonment is not right either. Both Anusuya and Kadika are his wives and they both deserve to live in Palace as Queens.

Ya they both deserve to be in palace...but polygamy is still strictly a no for me. If they cant show anu leaving bamni & kadika for their better...than atleast they can show the feelings the two queens might be going through at this moment of life. And i am not talking about wife abandonment here...i instead ask anu to take a decision there...

It was not big issue that time ,it was d easiest way of settlement b/w 2 kingdoms, 2 strengthen kingdoms, without bloodshed, this come under politics as mostly marriage were political ,

In Bajirao Mastani film , Bajirao never legally married Mastani but he accepted her, it was like a betrayal 2 kashibai as she was proud that Bajirao never married again after her, even novel on mastani states that bajirao promised kashibai that he will not marry again but he did married mastani legally.

Bamini dint betrayed anusuya , she Was presumably dead when bamini married kadika, bamini never took ek patnivrath like lord ram , so it is not a big issue. Even king poras 2 would have many wives

Draupadi was not a ordinary lady , she was a combination of many goddess , as pandavs 2 were dev putras. As lord krishna had 16000 wives.

Queens 2 never objected in that era coz it was a regular practice .

Even alexander bounded takshika & pouravs by wedding poras's daughter 2 ambhiraj as per some articles.

i know it was not a big issue at that time dear...my post is all about why it was not a big issue...but now after reading and replies i got here...i believe it was such a male dominated society back then that womens emotions were not given importance. They were just name sake princesses...as you just said ...they were married into other kingdoms as a part of politics...those princesses hardly got to choose what they wanted. I kind of agree with what kashibai did...she fought for her self respect...she did love bajirao too...but still she dint accepted him after he married/ accepted mastani. Claps for kashibai for that ...i wish women in this show showed that much guts. See i never said bamni betrayed...i am neither in doubt of his intentions or decisions here. I would like to ask if a king needs to take some ek patnivrath to stop themselves from getting married again and again...why werent princesses allowed to do the same. Exactly draupadi was not a normal lady...still she was dissed for marrying 5 men ...faced so much...imagine if a normal queen like anusuya or kadaki marry five men ..will all those five men accept the queen with respect like the king gets from all their wives. No...bamni or any other king will just leave anusuya or any queen if she got physical relations with any other man. See the difference in thinking at that time...a king was allowed to get married as many times as he wants and it was ok...while if a queen did the same like draupadi ...she was called characterless and what not...such hypocrisy existed back then. And regarding queens not objecting...it wasnt because it was regular practice...it was more because their openions hardly mattered to anyone.

It was like this at that time. Kings used to keep more than one queen. May be it was a matter of pride for them or a way to spread their kingdom.

And i think anusuya knows this and understands it.

i know it was like that...the posts is about why it was like that...and i now do understand...a queen openion/feelings dint matter much for the male dominated society back then.

We are so lucky to be born and brought up in today's times.. 😆

Well ab shaadi ki hai toh introduce toh karna padega.. He can't have guilt or shame while introducing her, otherwise it would have been injustice to Kadika.. But I feel he was aware of Anusuya's feelings.. He was not oblivious like he usually is nor was he insensitive...He was looking at her with some dilemma...

Also, I don't think Anusuya will consider leaving Bamini as her priority is and has always been "Akhand Bharat". If we see when Bamini sent her to servant's quator or jail or whatever that place was, she agreed to stay there, that was primarily not for Bamini or any other reasons, but for the nation's unity. So here when Daraius is prying upon India and she knows it, I believe that she would keep all other affairs aside. That's within her character. Moreover, Anusuya does not think much about self respect when it comes to Bamini...She felt bad about it and that was evident from her face. The smile that she gave to Kadika was quite formal. Ab aage jaake yeh dono pakki saheliyan ho jayen toh main kuch keh nahi sakti...😆

I think it would have been a nice scene where Bamini would have gone to Anusuya in private and talked about her emotions regarding kadika and made her feel secure, but as we all know they will never elaborate interaction between Anusuya and Bamini.. 😆

Us time ki hum log kya baat karen.. Even in today's times if we talk about our TV shows, they still don't make men give any explanation to their wives for any of their actions.. It happens rarely and when it does, I watch the scene with my eyes open wide.. Arrey aisa bhi hua.. 😆

PS : I liked that scene between Anusuya and bamini.. Yeh log Kadika ka angle thodi der mein laa sakte the.. 😈

i sooo agreee...we are reallyyy lucky yaarr and i am thankful to all those women who played a role in making us reach here. Yaa...may be if he had expressed guilt than that was not right to kadika...i pata nahi kyun couldnt see that dilemma...i would recheck the scene if you feel it was there and he was aware of her feelings. Okay if thats the case..that she cant leave just for her dream...cant anu fulfill her dream staying away from bamni...kinda understanding what havoc her entry must have put on kadika...she can still be a maharani but maintain distance from king...like kashibai did. Ahhh...i kindaaa agree with every word in your post...bamni anuu never get a proper scene...i would have loved if bamni could talk to her about this in private.
