Radha's mom

Hey friends....i just wanted to ask u one thing.
In one episode, it was shown that Radha's mom is a widow and her husband is no more. Then why does she wearing a mangalsutra and putting on the sindoor.

It is normal in Indian society to continue wearing the mangalsutra and sindoor after your husband dies to show honor and respect to you marriage.

OH okie......Thanks for sharing. I was not knowing it.

no offfense but i think this is rather unfair.
a guy does not need to wear anything to show he is taken(married) but a women needs to show respect to a relationship that does not exist.

that's kinda strange to wear sindoor and all that when ur husband is dead 😕

ohh really.... I didnt know tat.... Can u tell me where does this happen? i mean does it happen in Maharashtra???

Becos down in south india, they remove it....So I was thinking that the lady will remove her mangalsutra and sindoor after her hubby's death...

Anyways thanks dear... Man, i have so many things to know abt india even after growing up there 😕

really? i didnt know that. interesting...

It is normal for a widower to wear her mangalsutra and sindoor, because most women feel that by doing so they are really close to there beloved husband and I think it is a good approach. Finally we are doing the right thing, by not depriving a women from her rights. And I feel sorry for other parts of india where a female is still forced to part away from her mangalsutra and sindoor.
I hope this clears everybody's doubts and opens a new view point that I am sure everybody will concur with.

ohh yes yaaar, iam definitely with this... a woman need not take off everything wen her hubby dies.... It shud be left to the woman wat she wants to do with them... And no one shud force her to do something...
