I know there are a few out here mad at the way the show is going and who feel that the cv's are now catering more to the trp drama.or calling it a usual saas bahu drama...However , the last couple of episodes gives me such realistic feels that it takes me back to my wedding days...i havnt watched many shows earlier, but whenever i did, i did it for entertainment purpose only coz none reminded me of anything that happened in my life...barring this show..esp the marriage and after marriage sequence...
I had an arranged marriage but we had a long courtship period during which we got to know one another well and fell in love wth each other and we were desperately waiting for our d day..we belong to the same state, same religion, but different cities...and inspite of that , the cultural differences betn the cities created issues at my wedding...just to state one small eg, in my place , wen the bride enters the mandap, the brides brother or anyone in that postion, goes down, holds the grooms hands and invites him to the mandap..however i guess, at my husbands place, the whole family needs to be invited to the mandap esp the elderly..so this act raised many eyebrows from their side..my father in law was furious coz he felt embarrassed in front of the elders in his family..so this being such a minor issue, was big enough to have a few angry faces among the guests and families throughout the wedding...and me , like sona, was in my lala land and was ignorant of all the happenings...
Luckily our first night went normaly😆 but the second day, we have the brides family coming to the grooms house...with shagun and stuff...again few cultural clashes , the brunt of which i had to face all the day in the form of jokes n taunts...and the most surprising part was the man, who promised to be by my side, being a silent spectator to all this. Being newly married and being respectful, i laughed it off, each time a joke was cracked on my parents and their customs...but my husband had to bear it for many nights 😆...Sona's argument wth Dev reminded me so much of myself, from the second night of marriage...i took out all the frustration , anger on him and he, like Dev , tried to explain and calm me down and be close and i cldnt allow him to even touch me for not being a man and taking a stand for his wife...Hence we had some lonely nights for another few days ...😉
Other shows might show the female being taunted and insulted and her accepting it all silently and at night being the perfect wife and giving the viewers some romantic moments they look forward to but that hardly happens in real life ..wen u are not even sure of ur position in the family and in ur husbands life, u cannot just act as if nothing happened...
Well, this was 9 yrs ago, and today i feel proud to see my husband standing up for me whenever needed...proud to see my inlaws and parents in a more cordial and understandin relation...
So basically, individuals need time to make any relation wrk..no husband n wife hve a perfect argument free life from the very first day of marriage...no family accepts the girl wholeheartedly right from day one..it tkes time .As difficult it is for the girl to adjust to the new family , it is the same for the boy...he has a thousand eyes watching over him, to catch even the slightest change in his behavior, to make assumptions abt him not givin equal imp to family post marriage.. to call him a joru ka ghulam or attack the girl from tkin away the son from his family...he has to make sure none of this happens..he has to learn to balance the two...and for that he needs time too..human beings are insecure deep down...everyone wants to be the priority in one anthers life...and its only true understanding at deeper levels that make relations wrks..
Devakshi are so new to it...they need time...plz let them learn from experiences..leT them argue it out ...let them fight and let them grow...:)
