Meera's Dad

Dont you ppl think Meera's Dad could have atleast said A Thank You to Abhi yesterday rather dan Saying all those Craps.He is really ungrateful he can only see Dat a Do take ka manager is trying to get closer to his daughter but cant he see It was actually this Manager who Saved Meera from getting married to that mean Aman.Now I get to jnow How come Meera's elder sis was so selfish yesterday she got those Traits of being mean from her Dad.

No, I don't think so.. Wouldn't it be unrealistic and melodramatic if a person who's an IAS officer working in the central Home Secretariat and who receives orders directly from PMO (Prime Minster's office) has a cordial talk with a hotel manager from a small town!! Meera's parents are so busy in their professional lives that they couldn't spare enough time for their children, then where does Abhi stand!!

The Raizadas are so in a position in their society that even when Aman and Sanjay belong to the sama family, Sanjay-Ria's wedding has been postponed for just few months. This journey for Abhi-Meera is a tough one as Meera's family wouldn't compromise that easily and Meera wouldn't disappoint her dad.

A very realistic portrayal of him I would say.

The bureaucracy and people who are part of it tend to observe social (and positional) hierarchy a lot, in real life.

In real life, forget someone as rich and influential as Meera's dad, most middle class dads (I am not talking of lower middle class) will not be keen to get their daughter married to Abhi.

For him, he IS the guy who is trying to get closer to his daughter. On a separate note, dads DO NOT appreciate ANY guy trying to get closer to their daughters. :-D

When I see small town girls, mostly uneducated ones getting a job of an executive assistants of a Business Tycoon (I do not get this angry arrogant tycoon thing from Indian serials to be honest, it seems none of the CVs have met real businessmen), or rich families meeting really lower middle class ones at random mandirs, and tulsi worshipping bahus suddenly in one day single handedly start running complex business which their more experienced in business, husbands ruined, I know it is shown to make the televisions viewers (mostly made of middle aged women staying at home, I guess here they are called TRP aunties) feel good. But in reality, things do not work like that.

But that sets typical tropes most shows follow and when we get to see a real life portrayal of situations, we become uncomfortable.
