@red I'm sorry but being in Shukla's good books to me is as good as being in the good books of a bully. That just shows that you have no self-respect and in fact it negated all the admiration she achieved when she stood up against the wrong he did. Also I clearly remember that she was not talking to Shukla UNTIL Paras started getting friendly with him. This is what annoyed me the most about her change in attitude. If she did it on her own accord I would have still understood (but would have still felt that she negated her own stand, but still I would have understood.)
It's not about being in the good book of a bully, it's about how to tame a bully when you can't get rid of him. Even BB fails to control or change him; they have tried that; didn't work, so the next best option was to bring him to your side to neutralize him. She did it for the team not for Paras alone. That suited her perfectly.
In War or game, if you face a strong warrior or player, you try to take him in your side, that's a strategy used even in today's world. In your approach of feminism looks like you don't expect women to apply their brain and strategize their battles, rather fight senselessly; that's like copying brainless brutal example of some male heroes. I believe women should use brains and strategize to fight the issues rather than doing it some men's way.
I agree about being pro-active but again-Quality over quantity. I would rather have someone say two words of wisdom rather than two paragraphs of nonsense (read NOISE).
You don't understand the show, I'm sorry but that's on display. Here it's like "Jo dikta hai woh bikta hai" that's the world at large too. Yes two intelligent lines would be good but the show doesn't accept it. Our renowned writer had to leave the show in 3 weeks, although he gave many words of wisdom. So let's be realistic, who in this show is giving that quality that you expect it from a 22 yo?
The main thing Mahira lacks is articulation. She just speaks for the sake of speaking. Most of the times, she does not even know why she is speaking. Sure she does not use abusive words, BUT people can be mean to you even without using those words and they are equally offensive.
Yes I agree she lacks articulation but she does know always why she's talking. It's good that she's talking, bcoz non talkers are first in first out. Talking is the show & people who watch aren't mostly academics, so they understand her language pretty well, whether they like or not is their choice.
OMG if she's being mean without using abusive words, she's the perfect one for BB. No beeps makes it easy for BB & Audience. If there would be no beeps in the show, you would have called her Master of articulation, who can be mean yet without abussive words.
