I actually had to make this post after reading Kel's thread. There is too much pouring in my mind to not make this thread.

First of all, Kel raised a question as to why didn't Suman slap Ravish when she slapped Vividha for hiding the fact. But the real question should be- "Why didn't Suman slap Ramakant when he was ACTUALLY two timing?". You see me using caps for the word ACTUALLY. Because only Ramakant was two timing while Vividha was very clear on her love for Atharv from the beginning.

So this woman Suman worshipped her husband all her life even thou he bloody two timed and she has 3 children with him. Yet she never questioned him and worshipped him like God. She went on to the extent of fulfilling his last wish true in making Vividha as bahu. Why didn't she question?? Just because he was a man. Why didn't she question her dadaji who got SUman Ramakant married? Because he is a man. Why didn't she question Ramakant and move on? Because she was a man. But why is Vividha being questioned, bcus she is a woman!!!! Typical irrational thinking ! Disgusting on the part of few people questioning around Vividha's character.


Today Suman is giving lecture on saying that it is "paap"(sin) to marry someone and love someone else. Why didn't she feel the same when Ramakant did it? Why didn't she stand for justice then? Does that mean it is ok for a guy to have extra marital affair. It is ok for him to commit the same "paap" . But when a girl loves someone out of her marriage its the crime of the century!! Eh? 😳


Since time immemorial we hv seen serials on Indian TV where guy has extra marital affairs. Its all accepted and not shame to Indian marriage and society. He is not tied by marriage rituals, by MS or Sindoor. But when a girl loves someone outside of marriage its immoral, shame, disgusting. Its insulting to MangalSutra Eh? 😳


Is it a sin to be born as a girl? This is not even an extra marital affair for God's sake. Vividha is clear from the beginning that she loves Atharv and she has confessed it in front of her so called husband. This husband himself has agreed and accepted her love for someone else! Then how is it disgusting?!


All those people who are talking of Mangal Sutra and Sindoor, does these society rituals exist only for women?? Whenever extra marital affairs of a guy were shown in Indian TV, for example in Balika Vadhu where people had innumerable marriages and affairs, nobody said that it was an insult to the institution of marriage. Nobody said a guy having an affair spoilt the meaning of marriage? Just bcus Vividha loved someone else and is having MS or SIndoor she is disgusting, cheap, inhuman, insult to marriage etc etc. Do u guys realize how much a woman is let down in society ? More by girls itself. 😡


Vividha has clearly said she loves Atharv and clarifies that this marriage is nothing to her. She has called off this marriage long back. Vividha has worn MS by herself after Ravish removed it. Whether she wears it or not its none of anybody's business. This girl is clear in her actions. People need to see and appreciate that.


Last but not the least, a woman is not a substance to be tied by Mangal Sutra or marriage. A marriage happens with 2 people. A woman is not alone obligated. Nobody can tie her by tying her a Mangal Sutra. A woman is free in thoughts, actions, feelings and in life. I pity those who dont see this. I pity people who dont understand this.

I feel sad that girls are treated like shit in d world.. Every Girl feels atleast once in her lifetime that she should hv been born as a guy. Thanks for the society who still makes her feel so time and again!!


Gender equality...what does that mean?! 😔

Good post Kriti.


The answer is simple: blaming the woman is always the easiest option.

Suman blames ONLY Sujata for Ramakant's behavior, not anyone else. That in itself is rich, bearing in mind Sujata was there way before her and her son was born way before any of Suman's little minions were born. Both ladies were played like fools and yet they continue to worship the man who cheated them. Why? Because THEY ARE FOOLS.

Obviously as per the logic of this forum, if a woman wears mangalsutra and sindoor then they have signed a death certificate and can only come out of that nightmare via death. A bit OTT but it does seem to be the consensus of some here.

I repeat Ravish WAS at fault for lying to his mother. She is his blood, she is nothing to Vividha. Therefore she should have been MORE HURT when she found out her son was the one who orchestrated the whole charade upon finding out the truth re Vividha and Atharva. But nope, instead she was drowning in her own self pity blaming Sujata and Vividha. She blamed Sujata and Atharva for stealing hers and her son's happiness, but WAS SHE NOT THE ONE WHO DID ALL BY HERSELF? (I would say no she was not, it was all Ramakant's doing, but since the forum believes in blaming only the females here, then yeah deffoo her fault as per their logic.)

Ravish kept quiet thinking he was going to in-debt Vividha to the point of where she'll sacrifice just like his mother did.

Vividha's situation is NICELY overlooked by Ravish's fandom. Who goes and trust a family who is a stranger to her, when her own father had just betrayed her? Of course Vividha is at fault for marrying a man without loving him, but then the situation negates her fault. Atharva, another persona, who suffered the most in this whole love saga, a man who had pride in his identity lost his sanity, and yet his fandom is not blaming Vividha. Why? Well because we can all see it was Kailash's doing. We are not being selective.

Vividha is definitely not an object of compromise, which the Vashisht can keep as a statute of commitment. She is someone with a heart and has been OPEN with her feelings for Atharva. If Ravish was stupid enough to fall for a woman he knew was never in love with him, then that is his fault.

Sindoor and Mangalsutra are worn by women who are forced into marriage as well, or by women whose husbands beat them black and blue, are those women forced to stay there because they are wearing sindoor and mangalstura? I guess so, if I go by the logic of this wonderful forum.

A woman is always another woman's worst enemy. That is a proven fact. Men apparently ought to be worshiped regardless of their faults.

Kirti I wrote this in kells post and pasting here with some additions.

First of all Vivi didnt deserve that slap ...She did hide truth from suman but it was Ravish Involved too ..

But Suman always being physical and abusive in nature which we have already wothnessed her with Slapping Atharva abuse him, keep him on a gun point so this was expected from her ..


Since her nature is like that I did expect very much from her to give a tight slap to Ravish too but alas who can slap Lord Ravish. AND I disagree, that even if Ravish would ahve done this same thing she could have slapped him ... thats a NO ! She couldnt question Ramakant so forget slapping Ravish.

I am sure she wil love Ramaakant the same way even after the truth will be out today that He also wanted Vivi for Atharva but I m afraid that Sujata knew this so well but she didnt tell her at Mandir that this was Ramakants last wish.. I hope she tells her today. And Only Suman's faith in RV is to be blamed for getting her son married for no reason as well without knowing things.

She only cursed Sujata instead if Ramakant and she herself suffered all these years and never opted for divorce thats y she also wanted Vivi to lead sucha alife as she mentioned that for the rest of the life she will see Vivi married to his son but not love him ... How stupid is that ??

And as far as Vividha is concerned she always loved one man, She already made it cleared to Ravish that day she will MS and sindhoor to keep suman happy n she might continue till she gets divorce as anyways these are formalities for her as much as this marriage which they undid already. So I dont rhink so they even matter for her as long as they are not from her original marriage with Atharva.

Nice post Kriti... I'm surprised that Suman even after knowing how it is to live in a loveless marriage is questioning another woman about her love...
About gender equality in the show BHRK, the Robot Bahu asks "Why is only women expected to wear the symbols of marriage where as men are not wearing any of these symbols?" This is the sad reality of our society... Men can do anything they want and can get away with it but when a woman dares to follow her heart it is considered a sin... And sadly in 90% cases it is one woman blaming the other...

@_innocent,

can I just say your post is so beautifully written 👏👏 you are making the right points here and asking the right questions.

And ur point of women easy to blame objects are so true.. Sad that the world is still no where near to gender equality 😭

I just cant understand how much low can a fandom drop to justify their favourites.

Wow ! Great post kriti and @innocent 👏
Suman , I hate that woman...😡

You two really told everything...I didn't liked a bit that she only slapped vividha and blamed atharv and sujatha for what all happened...
Ravish is also responsible for all this...

Atharv and sujatha is not all responsible for all that happened...suman always blame atharv and sujatha...

Bang on post!!!

This whole MS & Sindoor fiasco. People are holding on to that but as you guys have pointed out, why does only the woman have to wear these? Where is the husbands mangalsutra or sindoor to show he's married to the society?

Anyway, Vividha wore that MS back herself. She can do whatever (though I'm sure they're making her wear it for the bahu look lol...aunties like it). But what she feels and thinks it's out there for EVERYONE to see! If you want to turn a blind eye to it then later whinge that we never saw it coming then it's pretty much your own doing!

Don't even get me started on Suman and her decision to devote her entire life to a man who never loved her.

You know what the funny thing about ydays episode was? She said now I'll have to have a bahu who loves another guy! I was stunned! She expects Vividha to still stay there as Ravish's wife even if there's no love there. Come on woman!! Grow a spine for your son at least!

Vividha was at her best yesterday, clearing out everything!

Brilliant Post Kriti 👏 👏

Before slapping & questioning Vividha ,Suman should ask first herself why she loves a man whole life who never loves you & still you worshipping him after his death .Why Suman don't ask this question from Ramakant because he was a man & can do anything but Vividha is women & obliged to love her husband only if she loves someones else out of her marriage was a big sin. I never understand this double standard thinking.

God has never made discrimination between men & women, in his eyes all are equal but its human being who make this demarcation to let down the women.

Suman herself is a big sinner for pushing her son in this forced marriage & ruined his life why she don't consent Vividha before marriage that she loves Ravish or not, just simply believe on kk words & fixes their marriage.

Marriage is a union of two souls & purely based on trust & love. These sindoor & manglasutra are just symbols of being married in this practical world. Vitharav are soulmates & already married by their minds & the trust & love they share nobody can. Vividha already said to Ravish that this marriage means nothing to her & she always loves Atharav only so i don't think she does any paap.

And the saddest reality is that women herself is the biggest enemy of other women and are more responsible for gender inequality
