I dont understand why people generalize a person's characteristic traits to every life situation. In real life, realistically put, we all act different with different people. Our investment and efforts put into relationships and interactions depends on the kind of relationship it is. Here, the portrayal of Ishita from being the extremely intuitive and perceptive understanding woman, has gone to the extent of not proving herself to anyone (be it her husband) because she thinks she has done no wrong. An extension of feminism, I would say. And that's fine also. But then to put your spouse on the same radar as others, is bullshit..that's stupidity. We can be who we want to be, but being in a marriage calls for compromise, understanding, interaction...one cannot say "I'm not wrong. Let my husband/wife think of whatever he/she wants to. I am not entitled to explain myself to anyone. He/she can burn in jealousy till they figure it out themselves."
Here, Ishita behaves generally with RAMAN...no special stuff for him...coz in her mind if she is clear, she is clear...without even bothering to take her jasoosi activities into account the last few episodes, without thinking maybe Raman got a hint of something...NOTHING...if this happens in real life marriages, the marriage will soon go to a point of breakage...because actions do speak louder than words, and sometimes even if one is right, one has to take care not to give rise to such circumstances that might create a feeling of insecurity in the spouse..
Now, many will say, should working women be confined to their homes because they are scared of their husband's insecurities?? NAH. Plus, RAMAN hasnt ever asked ishita to not have mani as a frnd...he is worried about the constant attention paid to the male bestie, frequent comparisons, excessive praises showered on him and the lies caught by him...anyone would question. Because however much one is good, evil can strike at you and you can fall...being innocent and guilt-free isnt the only thing that matters..there's something called responsibility as well..coz its not an idealistic world we live in..its a practical one.
this lady who we have all admired and even got irritated with for various reasons, doesnt apply her intuition or even the countless hints Raman gives her...to even speculate regarding the matter. She may not be wrong, but does that absolve her of her duty to ask her husband pointedly, what the matter is. Is she so idiotic she cant piece the puzzle together to understand the picture? Had she done that, Raman would not have gone to the extent he has gone today, not that I support his drunk behaviour last episode..but then I would deem ISHITA also responsible for that to some degree.
Ishita need not have held MANI's hand when he DID get the situation and trying to go from there. She got all bothered and feministic because her hubby took SHAGUN's name..look at her state..and RAMAN isnt supposed to feel anything looking at her behaviour for the last few days...is it an equal treatment? She only fanned RAMAN's insecurities and i will not stand up for that. In real life, the spouse will say "go to hell. be with whomever who want" and walk away.
I will not call myself a feminist, because I feel it weakens us and tries to make it seem we are seeking special favours. I would rather go for individualistic rights. Equality in relationships is a must. Just because one is a woman doesnt mean she is always the victim, and just because one is man doesnt mean he is always the culprit...you got to see on a case-to-case basis ..where does feminism even come into the picture?
last mein yahi kahungi...ki just because the end is noble, doesnt mean the means are...you got to follow protocol dude..aur yahan, raman ka asia business head was not the end of life for him, i guess.
