I guess both kind would have been there, the majority being the conservative kinds.

Some times I think that this 90s version is a bit exaggerated...we were allowed to wear anything we wanted...my parents encouraged me to be independent...get a career and do something. I could relate more with Shefali than Naina

Well, some families were very orthodox even in the 90s. So I'm not surprised by Taiji's actions.

A lot of families were changing their outlook and a girl's career was becoming important, but traditional families also existed. That decade was an era of change for India... Change was faster in big metros but in the second tier towns like Ahmedabad, it was definitely slower.

Even I went to college in the 90s and till late 90s, maybe even later, only suits were allowed for girls, not even jeans. And I remember seeing some girls, who belonged to very traditional families, all pinned up. Though they were studying in a professional college the family's outlook was very orthodox.

At the same time I had friends who wore skirts and jeans outside college, and had boy firends. So it was definitely a mixed bag then. 😃
