okay, first off all, I haven't been following this show ever since Raghav got married to Pakhi. I just watched today's episode and saw that Kamla, yet again, raised her hand on Kalpi. If I'm not wrong, she did that in the past as well on the day of Raghav & Kalpi's engagement ceremony. I don't know who is wrong or right (in terms of the situation) and quite frankly I don't think its important either. I just feel slapping someone is like stripping them off their dignity and Kamla has done it openly in front of so many people at the engagement and now another attempt in front of Raghav. I mean, just imagine getting slapped in front of your boyfriend!

I get the whole 'parents have rights' thing blah blah blah, but seriously is there right such that they can hit their kids? Will that REALLY do any good? If anything, it'll just arouse feelings of bitterness, hatred and jealousy. And, Ek Mutthi is not the only serial in which this slapping your grown up kids happens, its prevalent in all Indian soaps and I can't express just how much displeasure I hold for something like this. I'm sure these soaps impact people. May be people don't take stuff from them at a conscious level but at a unconscious level it sends out a message to the Indian society or actually the viewers as a whole that slapping people is OKAY and especially your kids because you're trying to set them straight or because you have affection/ rights/ concern about them that can only be expressed through brutal slapping.

Also, generally speaking as well, slapping is THE TREND in our culture. I see girls slapping boys in Indian movies over trivial things. And, I'm not saying that you shouldn't slap anyone no matter what...I mean it depends... there are perverts who deserve them, but still slapping is an extreme step and it shouldn't be made the norm and definitely shouldn't be used anywhere, everywhere by anyone for anything. It's a serious thing. People can hold a grudge and it can lead to bigger things/ crimes even... Besides, its lame because how is a slap going to solve a problem?

Anyways, that's my opinion. Would certainly love to hear what you guys think :)

Slapping Is as mportant in TV world as breathing is for life .. It is full of it , so I don't think it is any use trying to compare slapping to real life .. Wy just slapping so many other things are unnatural . Pakhi char is also unnatural .. How can someone be so dumb and delusioned .. So we just need to live with this stuff ..

I take my chill pill before and after watching the episod .. Then based on my mood either criticize or support ...🤣

I will tell you the truth if in practical they raise their hands on such grown up kids the kids would slap a mother like Kamala back on her face . Kamala is a stupid character where does she live in did she ever try this on her pookhi baby ever for any mistake of her she won't and she can't why ? She knows she is not kalpi and return back that slap .😆
Well that girl is so brainless she wouldn't give a second thought before doing that.

Slapping is bad,esp. the grown up kids. I can't understand why Kamala is being portrayed so stupidly. Her partiality is so obvious. Sometimes I wonder if Kalpi is her own daughter or as in TV serials, the babies got exchanged.
