A teacher - student romantic relationship! Why negative opinions?

There was a post i read on insta long back k ppl are ok to watch a devar bhabhi relationship, an extra marital affair ,a girl being sold to an elderly man in name of marriage but we become all hawwwww " teacher student relationship."🤦

The mentioned relations are wrong both ethically, religiously or even legally in some parts but a teacher student relation ( which yes ,is a relation of respect ) but is no way wrong to be in romantic perspective.

Both are adults( for me, after 18 ,everyone is adult). I have seen a couple married in teenage and are contended! If you are mature enough to handle a relationship, thats right age for me!

Having said that, i dont get the negative or restricted response on this love story!

Please feel free to share views

P.s: forum was looking slow ,thats why started a topic! 🙈

I honestly don't understand the negative views regarding this love story. There are many shows on ITV at the moment where 18 years old are being forced to marry elderly men who will take care of them later. And to stories like that, people will find it cute and endearing and stuff.

Whereas here it's the story of 2 mature people (20 and 29) who will eventually come together on their own will. No forcing whatsoever. Its relatively common. A lot of people in our generation have relationships as such, there is nothing wrong with it.

I'd rather watch a uni student get on with the professor willingly than watch someone young be forced to be with someone much older in order to be protected and cared for.

People had a problem with student-teacher angle in the show? I didn't know that. I heard some complaining about Shaurya's attitude when the promo was first released. Other than that, I haven't heard anything much negative about the show. This may be because I am not active on other SM platforms.

OT: I don't really have a problem with relationships where both the parties involved are consenting adults. Each person has different attitude towards life and relationships. So we can't really judge anyone based on their relationship choices. And this teacher-student angle is something that happens in our society. I have seen students getting married to their teachers in college. Not a big deal at all.

I heard that some people are calling Shaurya toxic. But thats an outcome of the way he was brought up and this is what the story revoves around. The change in personality and attitude toward life from Shaurya and Anokhi. The fact that people are willing to jump into conclusions without understanding is kind of sad...

Attiya, nice topic to accelerate the forum🤗

This is all an individualistic perspective. Its about how narrow or broad minded you are. Plus i feel if someone is calling this teacher student relationship negative then that person should call child marriage, also negative because technically both are same and if they feel latter is ok as a story and former isn't then that's hypocritic...

Either its positive or negative, there is no in-between.

P.S. just an opinion... No chappal and jutas🤗

@bold this is very true. It happens

Well, people have a say in anything and everything. Kuch acha hai toh bhi problem, kuch galat hai toh bhi problem so we shouldn’t really be focusing on the bad as there are always two sides of the coin and different perspectives and varied levels of openness to experience or newness.

Also, the teacher student relationship is something I have seen in my university so I feel it’s something that’s actually happening around and people are really okay with it😅 if two people are okay with having a life together, it’s their will.
What actually makes me go crazy is people actually don’t wish to watch shows with different storyline and stick to the same kitchen politics🙄🙄

Nevertheless, I’m really so happy to find a show worth watching without kitchen drama or anything and I’m completely spellbound by ShaKhi and find myself smiling at random things and people around me surely think I’m crazy😂

Personally, I don't see a reason why this is wrong at all. Both of them are adults. At some point they will have mutual feelings. So, nothing problematic.

I agree that the early views of Shaurya are misogynistic but that's what the show is based on. Trying to change the perspective.

Like they don't find faults with a child marrying and adult who is taking care of her. I don't see it any different than a teacher and student.

Here both of them are adults. So, it isn't morally unethical or anything.

I just find so many people finding negative points right about in everything. As if they're just waiting to comment something negative.

Once both the people involved are adults and completely consent to this, there isn't wrong.

The hypocrisy. Every serial shows the ML forcefully marrying the FL or blackmailing them in marrying. That's all fine and okay. Pour out hell lot of trp. Hell, they would even call that romantic. People take no negativity at that but a teacher and student relationship getting romantic is offensive. Even if it is consented by both adult individuals.

Honestly I won't like to milk it up but when you think from the outer perspective there are certain relationships in our society which are very respected.

A professor student relationship is also same.

So some people might have said things earlier but the way this show is running, there is absolutely nothing weird that the audience is being subjected to.

CV's has done an amazing job in forming a base for this story. Astha will be the ground cause of their interactions which will allow Shaurya and Anokhi to see the other person beyond the relationship they share.

Also, if we talk about patriarchy ...we have seen our grandparents having huge age gaps and ten year age is not that huge as well. People get married like that( Trust me I am not a fan of age gaps but that's me). So the age gap is not the problem, the relationship they share can be.

But again it's okay. They are two free individuals, adults..who have every right in the world to feel the way they want to.

Yes if the CV's would have limited their interactions to class and would have shown their story with respect to sexual tension it might have come across very creepy even to me.

But then now they are provided with an ocean of strong emotions they will feel together.

So it's all good !

Exactly. And its not even about age to me. Here ,because of fiction, they kept 9-10 yr gap. I have seen a 25 year ol male student getting married to his professor of research who will obviously be in late 30s or 40.

And i heard terrible stiff for them . But, to me, its nothing wrong as far is it mutually done!
