Nice analysis. I loved today's episode and I don't remember when was the last time we got the entire episode dedicated to Sairat. I have no complaints against Sai or Virat, both are behaving This way because of one common reason..insecurity.
We have a new jalebi maker in town.. Sai Joshi. Here are few Jalebis prepared by her today.
This room doesn't belong to me.
I have right over your things and I won't stop using your slippers.
You are free to flirt with any girl you like
You applied ice to your bade Bhai ki biwi immediately whereas for me you took extra x mins to find an ice pack
Ours is a deal marriage
I have every right to take care of your needs.
Can you come to the fresher's party to watch my performance
I Dont think you will have time and you may not be interested in my dance. .
Sangat Ka asar. Confusion is contagious as is the want for validation 😆
I have a question no offense meant. Are we took quick to judge a man and blame it on the patriarchal mindset.
1.He asked about slippers because he couldn't find them. Was he trying to prove a point .No, it's common practice to ask people if we cannot find what we are looking for.
That wasn't patriarchal. It was sweet and in husband wife moment.
2.Stopping her from participating in the dance competition - Did he stop her as her husband or was he voicing out his option because of his insecurity . If he wanted to stop her he would not have accepted her decisions so easily. If he wanted to control her he would have restricted her moments in the beginning. Isn't he the one who fought against his family's old traditions to let her study? Did he not realize the college is co-ed when he enrolled her.
I don't think he even knows he's being patriarchal and I said in some replies above that he's not doing it by design. But his instant reaction to something when he cannot figure or confront his own fear is to throw it back at her as a challenge or diktat. He's not doing it because he is patriarchal but there is no denying that his dislike for some things come from what he's been taught to believe.
@bold: exactly. His insecurity is due to his emotion for Sai and not patriarchy but his reaction comes from the way he has been conditioned. Unfortunately he's dealing with this emotion for the first time and he needs to get a better hang of it.
I agree with you but I think he was an unsecure husband stopping her. He wouldn't be insecure for the reasons he was trying to find out about Aniket if he wasn't her husband.
Let's say there was a role reversal would we judge the women the same way. Is he trying to control her because he is her husband and believes women should toe the line or are these actions of an insecure man who is unsure of his feelings and his position in his wife's life.
But isn't he in this position of insecurity because he is a husband with confused feelings only beginning to realise that he is the husband? He's not trying to enforce his husband right as a man with any malice or superiority complex -- but he is doing and feeling so because he is the husband who doesn't want his wife's attention to deviate from him even a bit... New found feelings... the result, however, is that he can only think of stopping her from doing something that is bothering him because he cannot find his grip.
And I find, somewhere, it is based in the mindset of male dominance. The sheer fact that she should be okay with his pyaar- dosti but he can go bonkers over her acquaintance-batchmate.
