Why does it always feel like Dhara is 40+ yr old and this show takes place in the 1970s vs 2021. I can’t imagine anyone beating their kid like that in 2021 for that kind of an issue. I get that they’re a conservative, traditional, lower (?) middle class family but clearly they’re with the times based on everything else they’ve shown. They’re not so removed from modern Indian society. Dhara is my age, and I could not for the life of me understand her ideas of discipline. They’re so antiquated as if she’s of Suman’s generation vs the millennial she really is. That’s one of my bigger gripes with this show - the consistent painting of Gaumbi and Dhara as some old traditional couple as if they aren’t just in their late 20s / early 30s.
What Dhara did today was disgusting. She has taken this bhabhimaa role too seriously. How is beating them when they’re grown men going to resolve anything ?
I agree with everyone’s sentiments - where was this level of anger when Dev left Raavi at the altar which caused her to attempt suicide?
Also Gaumbi- what brother stands by and let’s that happen. It’s ridiculous that they think that’s ok in 2021. I get a (or multiple) cheek slap(s) - we’re all brown after all. But being hit that hard with a wooden stick ??? This is just gross. I could never look at a parental figure the same way.
I get why Raavi didn’t say anything - I think she was just as shocked and didn’t really know how to interfere. The boys’ own elder brothers didn’t stop it, what could she have done?
