@ TM: Like many other shows, the makers do not do enough research and use the applied theory for all cultures.
Like the people from South has to have horrible pronunciation skills irrespective of their background. Every Bengali belongs to Kolkata as if there is no other city in WB.
This Sankratis play a very important part in our lives. It is celebrated by various names in various places. Do the makers know it ? I wonder !!
Also, why garba festival for Babita is so WONDERFUL thing?Being a Bengali myself all I can say is that what garba is for Daya, Durga Puja is for Bengalis. She never wants to be with her family but is found happily hitting hands here and there. Again, Pongal is an important festival in South India. We never find Iyyer making a plan for Chennai.
Hathis are from North India and thy speak Bhojpuri. What about Chatth Pooja ? KOmal easily applies all logic from Daya. Should we assume she has no culture of her own ?
Then the same goes for the Punjabi- Parso family. Oye balle balle and tu to ghelo che.. bas ? Ho gaya ?
But then they know very little about any other culture. At best they will be able to show you Maharastrain culture because being in Mumbai its easier to know about it but other cultures are just mercilessly murdered in the Indian shows. TMKOc unfortunately is no exception.
