This is my first post in this forum. I mainly wanted to post this because this is something I've noticed a lot with Rana Ji.
He is always manhandling the women in his life. Don't get me wrong, I don't mean to bash him. I know a lot of people are upset with him slapping Gayatri, and I am too! I don't think he needs to be laying his hand on any woman.
What I have noticed with him is that when he's mad, he treats the women in his life very poorly. Yesterday, he threw Sona's glass out of her hand. He needs to get a grip on his anger. He is a king. He cannot go around treating the women in his life so disgracefully. When he was mad at Gayatri he was sort of borderline abusive, especially with the leaving her in the jungle track. Yesterday, he mistreated Sona. Regardless, of whether she is bad or not, you cannot do that to women. You have to respect them and I see a lack of respect from Rana Ji for women when he is angry which is not acceptable.
Coming to this whole slap scene, it is not okay. He should not slap Gayatri regardless of what she says. He is a king and must act in a dignified manner. If I were in Gayatri's shoes I would walk out and refuse to accept his apology. This man his put her through hell and back. She has tolerated enough. He was not a good husband to her and when he attempted to try to become a good husband, his "ex wife" showed up and now he slaps her. I would want to stay with such a man. It shows that he has a lack of respect.
I don't understand why this slap scene is necessary. They shouldn't have Rana Ji do something like that. No man should hit a woman. A king shouldn't even dream to pull such an act. He's suppose to be a model the people of his kingdom look up to and he should exemplify how a noble man should act. In my opinion, you can be the world's most knowledgeable/intellectual person, but if you don't know how to treat women with respect, I question you intellectual ability...
What do you guys think? I'd love to hear from you guys. Again, I'm not bashing him. Just stating my point of view.
