Dear Star Plus, does the term consent mean anything to you?

Great job, I must say.

In India even today, most men believe women's consent is given or a myth.

If a woman flirts or just is being friendly with a man, that signifies automatic consent for harassment.

If a woman sleeps with her boyfriend, then that is automatic consent for all other men to sleep with her.

If a woman is wearing western outfit or smokes, that is automatic consent for rape

And God forbid, if a woman marries, that is automatic consent to anything her husband desires no question asked.

Is that the message you want to send to the society? If yes, then you have succeded. I must congratulate you for reducing a woman's worth to a DNA and a womb.

Raman wants to show how much he loves his wife by dishonouring her wishes, her respect as a human being and her right to take decision about her own body. He showed how great he is by using his ex-wife's womb as an incubator for his current wife's eggs without her consent. If that is not the biggest betrayal of her trust, then I don't know what is. By the way, this is the guy who promised he will never hide anything from his wife after his action nearly cost his wife her daughter (when Shagun tricked him by signing away Ruhi for Adi. He took Ishita's sign even then by tricking her). Obviously he will never learn respect for women.

Now, Shagun wants to show the entire Bhalla family including her children and Ishita how much she changed that she is willing to bear her child without her consent. She actually believes that she is doing Ishita a favour. After all what more infertile Ishita could ask for than her own dna running through the baby in her husband's ex-wife's womb. After all DNA is everything right?

If a woman doesn't have kids with her own DNA running around how can she be a mother? What is a mother but a productive womb and similar DNA? What more respect can an infertile woman ask for? She should just worship Raman and Shagun for doing such a big favour on her.

Brilliantly put !!! It infuriates me as a woman, insults my identity as one that N educated man like Raman is shown to forget his wife's basic right as a woman to choose about their child ... It's gross violation of marital trust and to me tantamounts to forced insemination in marital rape to get a woman pregnant ... Unbelievable this kinds of things are shown on prime time in the name of entertainment

Can someone tweet this n other Posts where we have expressed disgust over the show to Star Plus n BT.

I want to answer just your one question : If a woman doesn't have kids with her own DNA running around how can she be a mother?

Let me not get started about that Raman Bhalla. Your wife is totally against the idea and you have moved ahead to the stage where you have finalized everything and taken her consent by telling lies. No wonder, if tomorrow Ekta shows that Raman has asked doctor to use Shagun's eggs for surrogacy and surprises Ishita with a healthy nine pound baby saying this is her dream.

Who does that? Hello! you are not buying vegetables from the market. It is a baby. Ishita is the one who has to care of that baby as she is doing the same for your two kids. The only thing I've seen Raman doing for his kids is to spoil them rotten. If she is happy just being mother of Ruhi and Aditya, why to force her? It would be better if he works towards making their kids good and loving human beings rather than producing more mini Bhallas to spoil.

And isn't the basic concept on which the entire serial was based that she finds love of a wife and mother despite her fertility issues. Wonder what happened to that??

In order to validate Shagun they have butchered Raman character beyond redemption and the next one to be butchered would be Ishita because they can never leave with just one character signing praises of Shagun now Ishita will be shown she is very grateful that Shagun has indeed done a great favor in giving her womb to bear her child😡

I guess the makers are living in olden century where a man gets to do whatever he wants and the woman in his life has to accept everything without any say in it.
