Help me understand the relations here!

I m on a roll today! Opening posts left right and center.

Disclaimer: I believe in daughter having right in the family as much as the son. So dont get me wrong if my questions sound misogynistic. I am just going by the standards of ITV.

I have been watching this show from January this year and following most discussions but not sure anyone pondered on this issue.

Samrat is a Salunkhe I guess, so what happened to Salunkhe family? Mansi Bua must have come to her maika after elder Salunkhe's demise. In that case Pakhi is not a Chavan bahu. :P (may be thats why special treatment) unless Bhavani has adopted him.

North Indian relations are different from south indian sometimes. In south India, Pakhi is like sister to Virat after her marriage to Samrat. If SamrAkhi has a child in future, they will call Virat mama not chacha.

Somehow I am confused with the relationships in this show. Can someone enlighten me :) Thanks.

Pakhi didi ne sun liya toh aaki beizzati ho jaayegi...unki..!!!

Waise in North India Bhabhi is like mother or elder sister.

Pakhi is virat ki Bhabhiji or vahini in Marathi .. she is his elder cousins wife ... though yes they are not of the same family as samrat is Bua ka son ..

It also depends who built Chavan Nivas .. if it was build by Nagesh Chavan then his daughter Devyani has the first right and then according to his will ..This is the must likely scenario.. as these people look like middle class folks

If the house was build by their grandfather.. who ever he may be then obviously virat n Mohit have more right to it ..

Technically Chavan son and bahu are only Sai Virat n Mohit karishma ..

daughters are a separate family .. even biologically 😀

Yes same everywhere. Bhabhi is maa samaan.

In south India paternal cousins like Bua's son will have different relationship name and expectations than Kaka's son.

As I said, Samraat's kid will call Virat mama, but Mohit's kid will call Virat Kaka. Same relationship holds for Virat's kid too. Samrat will be mama and mohit will be Kaka.

Just saying...

As per South Indian rules Pakhi becomes sister Didi to Virat.

Bua’s Son ( Samrat) is not called brother he is brother in law and his wife is sister to Virat.

I don't think Bhawani has adopted Samrat. Mansi came back to Chavan niwas after her husband's death since her in laws were not treating her well after husband's death or something like that. Technically Pakhi is not Chavan Bahu nor is she Patralekha Chavan (Most probably its a blooper).

I am from UP. Now that I have cleared this up, I'll speak from my knowledge.

Since Samrat is Virat's bua's son, he is elder cousin of Virat and Mohit. Virat and Mohit's children will call him Bade papa. If Patralekha and Samrat were to have a child, they will call Virat and Mohit Chacha or Kaka. (Not sure but I think in Marathi father's brother, whether elder or younger regardless are called Kaka only, So maybe Samrat would be called Kaka only instead of Bade papa)

Between Devi and Samrat, I am not sure who is elder. In any case Harini will call all three brothers as Mama. Samrat's child will call Devi bua.

In North India actually, your elder sister or brother are like you mother and father, like your didi or jiji is like mother and bade bhaiya is like father. Hence their spouses are like your father and mother respectively. This is why Bhabhi is like mother.

And younger brother or sister are like your children and their respective spouses are also like your children.

How are daughters different family biologically? They have half the genes of same parents then why are they any different from sons?

Due to patriarchy, we completely eliminate daughters rights. Only women goes to husbands house which is also wrong at some level and it is due to society not biology. Mansi should treated as Chavan as wells. Due to societal norms women are asked to change family names( which again should not be done), but that doesn’t mean we should treat them less to sons in any property rights.

Also, historically the idea behind surname was to indicate in which family or house a person belong to in the village. So women used to go to husbands house so they used to change family names. But now if manasi lives with Chavans she must be adopting that name for easier social life. I find it strange when we talk about abuse on Sai, strong feminism on this forum and still worried and argue about manasi not being Chavan.

If the house is build by their grandfather, manasi, nagesh, ninad and omi has equal rights. So manasi’s 1/4th share would be samrat’s. Virat, Mahit and devi will also shave 1/4th right as every senior Chavan has just one kid.

I think it would be 1/5th since Shivani is also there

i think it is universal that bhabhi is either like sister or mother!!!

Didi ki gajjab bezzati hai 🤣

If I m right now as per supreme court orders now even daughter will have a right on paternal properties like son.
