Hello Beautiful Girsl...!!

I would like to start with a Disclaimer... Dont Get Me Wrong.

Do you all really think what Zara did is Right and What Kabir did is Wrong. I don't think so. Don't be too feminist Girls.

Kabir is Right and Zara is Wrong here. Yes her view is Right. But Even Right thing in the wrong place and Wrong time Cost you big time.

He is your guest at your home. You are from a respectable family your actions would not just cost you it could cost to your family member and reputation. Especially in a Social Circle. The same happened. You can very well avoid that Argument to your Husbands Guest. Will your parents or brothers or Husband allow this. You wont be scolded by them... Please have a reality check.

Everyone in the word have their own views and opinions. Something right for someone may not be right for others. No one can change others opinions and view points by Arguing or debating. This is not a competition or debate to do it everywhere and with everyone. What she was trying to prove there. I felt this many times. Even when she did the same with her father. Having a healthy Conversation and Related Arguments can prove a Point. Also you don't need to do it with everyone you contradict. Where will all this would end. But this kind of behavior is really not civilized rather immature and disgraceful.

Kabir was right. Her father was right when he was telling her " tum iss sheher ki siasath ko nahi janthi"
You can be straight but the World is not Straight. You can be Fair but the world is not Fair. Straight Trees are cut first. The question Kabir asked was Right You think only your view points are right and the rest of the world is Wrong. No its otherwise. You have to accept that they do have the belief in their view points and their own reasons. Having IQ is Ok but she needs to have EQ too.

So I would say to Zara to keep her opinions and view points with her. She can very well confront with Kabir when they have differences in a healthy way. But she needs to give space to others view points too. Rather than hustling and Bustling she has to be Smart. I wish to see her like that.

I'm sorry but i don't agree with you at all!
What does being "too feminist" even mean...? If raising my voice against something wrong makes me "too feminist" ... then so be it.
I agree that one should respect guests...Yes your actions do have an impact on your family...but not questioning/raising your voice against wrong in the fear of what would the society would say is utter nonsense... Logo ka kam hai kehna... Whatever might you do the society will talk about it...
Respect can only be given to that person who respects you...If something like what happened with Zara had happened in my house and if i would have questioned the guest my dad or elder brother wouldn't have scolded me...In fact my elder brother and dad would have supported me because I'm right...just like Zara was right.

I agree that Zara is impulsive at times...and yes right or wrong... everyone is entitled to their own opinions...But if one doesn't question others beliefs and doesn't debate no change will ever come...If we don't question wrong and don't make others see why they are wrong... how would any change ever take place...? everyone will continue having their thoughts...
Zara was having a healthy argument only... She told the guest ki if women are asked to do parda then even men are asked to lower their gaze...that's a fair point for a healthy discussion...she wasn't disgraceful nor was she uncivilized...just like the old maulvi gave his views she gave her views...Tbh i don't see anything wrong in that...in-fact i'm proud of Zara for taking a stand.
Why should Zara keep her opinions and view points with her...? Its okay for Kabeer to shout and became angry and even manhandle her...but she can't even say what she believes in...?

P.S- Just realized the post became quite long... I'm not trying to pick a fight... this is just my point of view. Peace 😊

Okay.
Lets just breathe.

I think everybody has a right to their opinion. Do you think Zara was not hurt that a man comes.to her house and disrespects her??

Yes, okay maybe Zara did Khari Kahri Suna the guest, but with all due respect to him, he was asking for it.

And there is no way anybody can explain or be in favour of Kabir's behaviour.

He could have asked her about it and told her off in THEIR room, just in case somebody walked in.

While I get your point about being respectful towards guests, I can't help but think how such expectations are laid at the doorstep of women every time.
I am not aware of the religious connotations here nor did I understand the position this particular guest held and I'm sorry about my lack of knowledge. But despite all that, I genuinely feel what Zara did was right. The person thought he could get away with his patronizing behavior only coz he felt he had some power over her in her own house. I think many of us can relate to being in such situations. How long are we to swallow the humble pie, kill our opinions, cut off our own wings to satisfy such patriarchal notions? Also, well mannered behavior should be a two-way street? And what do women get in the end after all the adjustment and consideration? More expectations on 'correct' behavior! A look at daily newspapers would give anyone the answer actually.

That she spoke up is most important here.😊 It's about time a woman became assertive without letting societal expectations tie her down. And let TV shows, for once, air such scenes that normalise an FL speaking up againt a supposedly powerful person. Only when women stop mutely obeying 'elders' owing to fear of consequences are they gonna free the shackles. Those 'consequences' that men never seem to bother about if they feel offended... On screen or otherwise. If such scenes are whistle worthy, Zara should be appreciated too.

i am sorry i cant agree

Even i am not really aware of the religious connotations as per Islam. But if some guest in our house passed a comment about a woman/women in our house he would have been asked to leave very politely.
This has infact happened twice in our house.My grandfather famously said how does it matter to you, please do not tattle to me.

No one even if it is a guest has the right to insult someone at their house especially on cultural norms which depend on family to family
