Trivialising the issue

This has been in my mind for a few days, finally putting it out. I'm not sure if anyone of you has touched upon this topic, might've missed it.

The issue: Sonu's molestation, clicking pictures without consent.

So, we've all been angry that Mayank did not actually face any consequences of his actions (jail nahi gaya)

But *sigh*

Only if

Sonu has gathered some courage and confided in Raj. I really believe he would have supported her, along with Kartik (who almost knew) and Ahaan would have been in a dilemma but end up supporting his dear sister.

I would love to see dadi and Sarla aunty depicting the society and blaming the girl only to be shut up by Raj, Kartik n Ahaan, the holy trinity. Chachi n chacha also coming out in her support after some initial hesitation.

Suman aunty proud of Ishqi for standing up against crime and speaking against her not-so-great son.

This unnecessary drama has a major impact : one, this happens quite commons to many girls (and boys too). They watch the show and if Sonu would speak up, it would give them some much-needed courage to share it with their friends/parents and know that they would be supported and not be blamed.

We need this positivity in our life. When this show tries to be so progressive, why not show this.

We would still get a very high-voltage drama as Sarla aunty and daadi blaming Sonu and Raj, Kartik, Ahaan defending her!

Second, sending Mayank to jail would give hope to many victims to speak up against the abuses faced by them.

Somewhere this needs to start. Especially on a channel that shows Crime Patrol and CID all the time.

Also, the actor portraying Sonu getting threats on social media just shows why we need to see this change on ITV. They could even show this angle, cyber crime police tackling the haters when Sonu/Ishqi try to go online and share their problems with others.

That's my two cents. Feel free to share your thoughts.

Well said. But who will tell gul that to jo gul khilayi who teek nahi. It has adverse effect too. But who will listen to this.

I agree with everything you wrote. They have trivialized with couple of dialogues but at some point I did feel they were taking it seriously especially form ishqi’s dialogues.

Mayank took photos and was also trying to rape her, that is as good as rape. He violated a girls body and privacy, he should be in jail serving maximum punishment for the crime.

They did but Ishqi doesn't mention what actually happened to Ahaan, she could have told him without revealing Sonu's name.. endless possibilities but okay.

Mayank in jail is needed. Nothing less than that is allowed.

Gul ko DM karna padega, kisi ke paas is hai kya??

Very very true. I am glad that you touched on this topic and really feel sorry that I also didn't touch this thing. This is very right that this issue just got lost. Unfortunately, we find many issues being raised on ITV but none of them dealt properly and it's sad that when such issues are raised in a popular TV show which is watched n liked by the youngsters, they have to be dealt properly. If they show the guilty person moving freely and victim suffering and especially those who support her, suffering more, no young girl will dare raise her voice when she, God forbid, come in similar situation. I really don't understand that why do they have to do that

Hey, don't be sorry! There are a lot of things going on!❤️

They want to continue the age old patriarchal society and are cowards who won't take a stand because they're scared about trps and shit.

I did comment and DM Gul on her Insta account. I know she won't read but I'm glad I sent it to her.😳

Not that I'm surprised but in the era of #MeToo, we expect some changes.

It's sad that she gets away with this. 🥺
