interesting posts through and through.

continuing on your original thought, swathi...

would I watch a philandering rudra after he gets fake-married to Paro - YES

Do i condone the philandering of Rudra after he gets fake-married to Paro? LEANING TOWARDS YES

Here's why. A marriage based on distrust, false premises and revenge is no marriage at all. Why would i expect either Paro or Rudra to honor such a useless piece of paper when everything that led to the wedding is nothing but a big SHAM?

I don't believe in restricting people to definition of a marriage if neither entered the institution with any respect or honor for the basic tenets of the institution. I have no problem watching a straying Rudra EVEN after he marries and conversely I would be absolutely fine watching a straying Paro.

Neither seem to have any respect for their marriage as they blaze towards the wedding day. Paro seems to have accepted a marriage of convenience and Rudra has found NO OTHER way to make her confess. In that case, their marriage is nothing but bullshit created by CVs to force them to cohabit in a room. So until a time Rudra feels "real" love for Paro, he can go philander all he wants, and I will watch it with pure glee and relish. Conversely, if Paro strays and feels attracted to another guy, I will watch that too. The question is are the CVs brave enough to show Paro straying? God forbid a perfect angle should fall!!

brickbats?


SJ...I think you are deliberately being the devils advocate...which is fine...😃

The way I see it is that one can argue for total equality by saying...neither made a commitment so, both can stray or one can argue equality by saying neither should stray...because like it or not...when you got married...you made a commitment...

I argue for the latter...,there is a commitment associated with "marriage" ...that does not rely on "love" or " trust" or what have you...it is a commitment despite what is...as is...

Now Rudra is a fictional character...and it is a losing proposition to impose morality on fictional characters...the creatives need their leeway...Never the less...a romantic lead has to be likable in the fundamental sense...If he is atrocious or indulges in self pity to justify exploiting other human beings...I lose the romance part in it...

For me, I don't care what the male or female does before marriage in terms of sexual relationships but as soon as they enter the institution of marriage, all other sexual partners/relationships should discontinue.

If one argues that they are both entering into a fake marriage, it is not fake in the eyes of society nor in the eyes of God, they will be taking part in all marriage rituals wouldn't they, so how can they claim its fake, the marriage if not fake... their oath to uphold the sanctuary of the marriage is fake.

Would I continue to look at the screenplay if this is shown to be the case absolutely NOT.
I rather hide behind my rose-colored glasses in this fantasy world😆, than have reality shove in my face as is the case with some marriages in today's society, especially in Hollywood.

What type of morals is that teaching me, that its ok for my partner to cheat, no way ... when it becomes an equality between men and women, and is not frown upon by society if a female does this, then I will say go ahead buddy, I am all for your cheating, because mama (or should I say wifey) sure is going to find herself a sugar daddy.😆😆


I understand that you wouldn't be happy watching a screenplay that shows such burning realities as a cheating spouse, its after all your choice how you would wish to spend your free time.

however, I am assuming you would then completely agree with me that showing a forced marriage built on hate and revenge, forcing a helpless woman to agree to marriage, is also bad moral teaching.

he he he, Sush, don't deflate the aura of a callous libertine that i am laboriously creating here.

Infidelity is not new and will never get old. Because human beings are a curious and dissatisfied lot, always looking for new avenues of happiness. Unless a relationship is a strong bedrock, and one's sense of loyalty absolute, most are not immune to infidelity. Of course, one does not have to watch a show that depicts unfaithfulness, and its totally your prerogative. But we can't dismiss the genre as unreal or immoral. Immoral to me is denying two people the right to marry when they are ready and causing a revolution to be allowed to marry, in order to be in a lifelong faithful monogamous commitment, just because they are gay.

what is the value of faithfulness if a shared life does not give you any joy?

i should add, it was fun reading the diverse points of views. I do not mean to offend anyone's sensibilities, so please take my words in the spirit of a healthy debate and nothing more. What I believe in my personal life is of no consequence or bearing to what I might write here in order to make my argument stronger.
Have a wonderful rest of the weekend.

I don't want this marriage to happened at all, I don't get the need to make such a mockery out of marriage they marriage between Paro & Rudra happened it should be for love not hate.

I find the triangle too awkward this shouldn't even be called a love triangle. The way I see things is like Rudra wants Paro and Laila wants Rudra... That's how I see it. Paro on the other hand she's innocent in all this she has no feelings for Rudra.

Rudra to me seems happy with this marriage during his conversation with Laila the way he said to her "I don't belong to you nor you belong to me" He didn't even explain the marriage issue to her while Paro on the other hand rather died than married the "Monster"

A Very awkward love triangle that is indeed.
