Hello everyone...

Many people discussed alt about Dev and Ishwari scene where Dev told tht from now on he ll nt call Sonakhi's Mother "MAA"

I personally dint liked dis at all as a girl...

In many families theres a culture where boy never addresses girl's parents as Mom n Dad esp in North side of India...

Even I cn connect to dis as my father never addressed my Nani as Mother...I remember I pointed dis out to my father n questioned him about it n he answered tht he feels shy calling her mother but tht doesnt mean he doesnt regard thm...he holds high regards for thm and calls thm "Ji"... Even hats off to my Nani and my Mom who understands him n nvr questioned him abt it... want to add today is my Mom Dad marriage anniversary n its been 30 years of togetherness...

Its said when u love someone u accept thm with there flaws...tht wht true love n understanding means...

Do share ur views and dnt forget to comment...

Regards
Swati

Absolutely agree with every word that you have written...
However, here the problem is not what Dev is addressing Asha as.. the issue is that he started calling here Maa and gave her a certain level of apnaapan and respect and then he decides to take that away just because his mom is feeling threatened and their bond is special! He is not thinking about what Asha/Sona would feel and as a husband, it is very much his duty to ensure that his wife's feelings and not hurt.

You father didn't call your nani mom since beginning. Dev here addressed her as mother and then suddenly took a 360 turn and addressed her as aunty. Don't you find that's insulting? Because Asha is habituated towards hearing 'Maa' from him. How would the 'aunty' make her feel like?

And among Bengalis and UP ppl, addressing each other's mother in law as mom is a usual tradition, if we are really talking about traditions here.

And he regarded that calling her 'Maa' was a mistake! That's the biggest blunder.

thts true...agree with u... I think Dev have to learn to maintain the balance in his relationships so tht no one feel offended be his own Mother, Sonakshi or Asha n other family members...

Its ok not to call ur in laws as ma ...the point here is not that Dev is not calling her ma...the point is he used to call her ma and suddenly stopped calling her ma and started calling her aunty after his mom felt bad abt it ...that is why ppl are angry...if he had called her aunty from the beginning no one would have said that ...in many communities in India ppl address their in laws differently...which is ok.

you r right... I think Dev should find some mid way where both d Mothers r happy with him...instead of reverting Back to Auntyji he should try to think something different... jst my pov or may be he would hv tried to explain Ishwari tht even though He calls Sonakshi's Mom "MAA" bt still there bond is special so tht Ishwari ws relieved frm her budding insecurities...
