Hello guys, I've been a silent reader in this forum but today's episode really forced me to bring up the below topic.
Please do not attack me because I'm just putting forward some thoughts, and I will respect all opposing opinions as well.
One thing I have learnt from this show is that there are some problems associated with the Indian culture of "hanging on" to our parents even as we grow older. First of all, this is more applicable to boys but girls are expected to drop everything.
But more than anything, hanging around the boys family does stunt the growth of the relationship between the new man and wife. First of all, leaving the parents house will encourage all children to develop into their own personalities - here they are nothing more than their parents' shadows. Also, these children end up being way too influenced by their parents - living alone they would get more freedom to form their own opinions and beliefs.
Living together in such cases implies that the man can never grow out of his primary relationships and he can never "completely" become a husband, or perhaps even a father.
I certainly don't deny that living with an extended family comes with many benefits - but this post is not to discuss those.
I just wish Dev and Sonakshi would try to discover themselves instead of living a life centered around Ishwari and her other kids.
Again, please don't bash! Thanks!
