I agree with you. If they can take a loan from bank with sky high interests, what's wrong with borrowing money from hardik who is your best friend and your sisters brother?.the man has been handling it all alone since so many years. I am guessing from the show that Hardik has a stable job, his brothers have grown up.there is no harm in taking help or sharing your problems once in a while.

But I guess itv is far from concept of showing mayke wale giving financial help to sasural walee.that will show gombi as weak and incapable.we are in a society where the concept of Ghar jamai is ridiculed and the daughter in law staying in an extended joint family is given an example of and applauded.

Gender roles are complex.on one hand we have the swabhiman issue of ladke wale.on another hand we have the social evil of dowry.its an irony!

Trust me we still have the notion of beti ke Ghar Ka Pani bhi Nahi pite.my nanaji had never eaten a meal in my dadajis house.even though they were friends, played cards with each other,talked for hours but he would always go back to his house for meals.( The houses were just 2 km away)

Very well said, Pixie. It’s surprising to see such archaic values being propagated not only through television shows but they exist in real life too. The internalised patriarchal and deep-rooted misogyny is so rampant in our society that it would probably take ages for it to go away. The world is moving towards a non-binary system of genders, and in another 20-30 years, You would see a huge difference from the mindset that we are currently in.

Thank You for sharing Your personal anecdote. It’s still very sad to see all this in our society.

Yess, they could have shown him as a normal graduate.and it's pandemic time , they could have shown him working from home, contributing something to the income of family instead of just sitting and rejecting job offers 🤣🤣.

Very true! He doesn’t need to be in the store 24/7. Shiva, Kaka, Gaumbi are there. Now Raavi has started going as well. Just like you said he could take a job that pays him well and work from home if he still doesn’t want to leave his family. It is very much possible😕

In the OG Jeeva was shown as an Engineer but him and Kathir always came up with good suggestions with regards to finances and helped Murthy a lot. Here they are dragging the whole thing and making them all look like idiots

They could have atleast show about home delivery or online order and online payment idea. Its pandemic they could have shown that is why the idea started and they felt it would be profitable . Sone pe suhaga if Rishita blurted out the idea during her online shopping rant and Raavi stopping her tirade to say that's good idea. Rishita will be like huh what?. Raavi is already looking at Gaumbi expectantly and Gaumbi breaks into a smile yes it is. Thanks Rishita. Rishita will be all smiles but a little confused thanks for what

Dhappa, main bhi aa Gayi! Was swinging between office, siggy making and blah blah! Now, I can gush about the episode!

Before I say anything, I need to give it to Kinshuk today for fantastically portraying the frustration of the head of the family in the Middle Ages trying to don the hat of the father figure, taking the burden of the entire family on his shoulders while dealing with the frustration of being an incapable husband.

There are too many sacrifices that Gautam has done throughout his life!

Hardik pointing out his failure to be a good husband has deepened his grievances.

I don’t understand why would Hardik not be angry? We have seen past instances where Hardik has got angry with Gautam whenever Dhara’s self-respect has been compromised. The same Hardik was as furious as Shiva when he had got to know that Dhara was humiliated by Janardhan Seth!

He had said such mean words to Gautam. It’s ironic that in the 21st century, there is still so much bias against mayke wale speaking in the matters of Sasuraal.

A woman has all the rights to be treated well at her in-laws place, and if it’s not the case, the brother has full right to voice his opinion. What’s with this obsession about Mera Ghar?

Hardik got Dhara married to Gautam without even thinking for a second about his sister! He has full right to scold Gautam!

What kind of archaic values are we teaching? It’s high time that we break the notions of patriarchy, and stop viewing everything from a singular lens.

There is absolutely nothing wrong if Hardik would want to financially help Gautam. They could take it as a loan as you would take it from a bank. And, start paying EMI’s to repay it. Making her asleep in the veranda while getting beds for other people is hilarious. 😆

Also, the best arrangement could have been all the men sleeping outside, and letting the women sleep in the rooms.

Gautam looks so much in trauma!

Thank you for writing this❤️

I really want Dev to do a job, or maybe make business plans rather than carrying sacks around in the store. They have a whole army for a single grocery shop. Trust me Itna Kaam Bhi nahi hota 🤣

Aww this is so cute!! I thought these stuffs happen only on Tv but it does happen in real life as well... The maida on hair part lol 🤣🤣 It is such a pain maintaining the hair 😆

Lol yeah! You'd think you can just wash it off, but yikes. Put water in flour and you're in sticky situation.😂😂

Raavi’s top that she wore to the store looked like one of those Chinese wall hanging patterns. I have several hanging around my house😆 the only thing is they are all bright red but the one she wore was more pink and red mixed in, liked the color though, I have have silk scarves too with the same pattern, which I never wear😆. My husband got them for my daughter and me whenever he visited China before pandemic days. He kept on asking us why we won’t wear the scarves, both of us said the same thing “ have you see the design on them, its too busy for our liking and the color ”. From next time on, he started buying better silk scarves with less pattern and neutral colors😆

Lol just saw the SVS segment.

Honestly, if I was GAuRa, I'm not sure if I'd be proud or concerned.

I don't want the ceiling to collapse on me! 😂 It's one thing for DIY home maintenance projects and a completely different to build a while new room. And Architect needs to be consulted not only for the design, but to verify if the foundation is strong to build upon it and the construction in itself. These guys run a grocery store. Where did they develop building skills and that to fairly quickly?!

If you watched KD Sr.'s BTS, I think yesterday they were shooting for the bedroom revelation scene. I think the 5 of them snunjnin the room to decorate it at night so GauRa are surprised the next day that their bedroom is ready to be shifted in. But from where will they get money?!

@bold 1 - Lol 🤣🤣 but aren't they making only the walls?

@bold 2- MBA topper kuch intezaam kar dega 🤣🤣

Omg! Yes, Prema 🤣🤣

In the few minutes or say 1/2 hr Shiva and Raavi were in the store, only one customer showed up😕 and they ended up having a flour smearing/applying session, whatever you want to call it?

Didn’t Dhara warn Raavi not to be playful the previous day when she was going to go for the first time?
