Guys, I am feeling very angry, disappointed and disgusted with everything being shown on hindi tv serials, including this one...I have not lived in India, so, I am learning about India from these tv serials, and it saddens me that such is the mentality of educated class of india who are making these serials...what i learned from YHM:
- women are suppose to take any nonsense from their husbands, and family; including bad words, shouting, foul language, and abuse
- you must be ok with taking any nonsense from your husband, his family, his ex-wife and kids...if you don't, you are not an ideal indian women...
- if your husband tries to assault you and force himself on you, its ok if he apologizes in a non-serious way without realizing mistake; you must forgive him, because you are an ideal women (there is no difference between you and a keep sorry wiffy)
- its ok for your husband to shout at you in front of others, and humiliate you in front of your step children but, you must satisfy him whenever he pleases, and be all romantic with him when he flirts with you when he wants it because, he simply said sorry, and its ideal for you to satisfy him...disgusting...(no difference between a wife and wh**e in this case)
- you must do all house chores, go to work, and still be able to look out for his children without resting with your super powers of being in two places at the same time right? (no difference between a wife and an unpaid maid)
- someone from your husband's family tries to rape you, but, you are suppose to understand his dilemma, and its ok for him to kick you out of the house rather than support you and stand by you (you are just a punching bag for him and his family)...


So after noticing alll these things and learning them from hindi television serial...no offence to anyone, not interested ever in being an ideal sabhya indian naari as indians are portraying it to be in indian television serials...

And I salute all indian women for putting up with this nonsense if this is what being an ideal women is in real life in India because, sure as hell can't put up with this nonsense if this was in real life...And no wonder India has so much crime against women; name it rape, murder, abuse, domestic violence or female fetocide...this is what people are watching everyday, that is what they will become😡

I agree manhandling issue was wrong n CVs went overboard but sometimes women do forgive for their husband's mistakes. What happens between man n wife stays with them, physical intimacy is an extremely personal matter which will differ for different couples. N for that matter Raman didnt go further n tried to sexually harrass her or rape her. N he has never after that or even before that forced himself on her - maybe thats y she forgave him coz she knew it wasspur of the moment.
Ishita I think lets go of verbal abuse coming out of Raman coz she knows maybe that Raman says any BS when he is angry. Sometimes she chooses to answer him back sometimes not.

I think she must not say sorry to Adi coz she is not at fault here. But maybe she will say so that Bhallas n Adi is happy.

I m more irked with CVs showcasing women marrying their molestors or women not registering police complaint against molestors or Ishita not understanding Shagun's sly games n giving her dress or earrings which is a token of love from her husband. if they make Ishita say sorry to Adi coz Bhallas n Raman cant live without their Ghar ka Chirag then it showcases weak portrayal of women n women being played at hands of in laws n hysband for no fault of theirs.

The above is just my POV about marriage equations, womanhood etc, we all can agree to disagree. 😳

I agree with you also about other issues...you know while is was watching it, i was asking my mom, mom are indian men this bad in real?? lol...until like past few years ago, i used to think this actually happens in real life in India...so i used to say, mom i will never marry an indian man, who wants to marry a shouting dog lol hahaah But this is what people are seeing, and that is how they will behave...no wonder so many crimes are happening in india, indians tv serials are so negative...

The one thing thats the most problematic with YHM is that when raman is angry, the writers forget every ounce of character development they had built towards Raman. In order for Ishita to stay in the Bhalla house happily is if she never angers Raman and never touches her individuality. For heavens sake she is damn doctor who handles her household perfectly. As far as we know there has never been a complaint where the Bhallas have been upset with Ishita for spending too much time in her office rather than at her house. I just hate the fact that Ishita is never cared for personally, but only when it comes to being a mother, wife and a daughter-in-law. People always talk about how Ishita is not your typical bahu but her identity has always revolved around her being a perfect Ishima or a Punjabi bahu. We've never had any scope of Ishita on her being a doctor, But how many times has Raman given the CEO title? I mean how many times has this title come into play when explaining his actions? He was literally awarded for it. Can we also celebrate Ishita's accomplishments or does that only happen when she balances everything in her life with no room for mistakes whatsoever?

I dont think what they show is a even half a reflection of the Indian society.
Some of the stuff are so regressive that its beyond comprehension.
Please do not form opinions based on what you see on TV.

However rural India still reels under male chauvinism and illiterate woman falling prey to age old traditions and beliefs, tailor made to suit male ego.

Urban India has changed a lot in fact I would say the women have moved to the next century educated and financially independent. They do have a choice to live or let go if situation so arises.

Men are yet to get there, guess that will also happen as they do not stand a choice.
They are still caught in between benevolence of their mothers and the no sense stance from their partners...
Strictly my opinion though.

totally music lover...this is what i mean...where is the wife, the person called Ishita in all this??? why are these serials focused on so much about degrading women??? why put them so low in the name of being ideal bahu aur maa...are they not human beings???? do they have no feelings? do they have no self respect??? does all of that go for a toss when an indian woman gets married? so than is marriage worth it in that case if this is what ideal women are suppose to do?

I really pray this is not the real scenario in real India, and if it is anywhere in the country, i really hope the mentality of indian man changes because, this is pure torture if it was true...all people are seeing in these serial is women should go to the point of losing her self-respect, her dignity for being an ideal bahu or mom, and she is a unpaid maid after getting married...Her wishes, herself, her ideas don't count, and she is just a statue in the house to be shown of as ideal bahu...god this is so disgraceful to show...
