The way these CVs have destroyed Kinjal's character has been so frustrating and sad to watch...
Constantly we are told in multiple ways how Toshu and Pankhi wishing that their mom was more westernised, educated, stylish, etc. instead of appreciating her for who she is and what all she has done for them is wrong (which it is!).
But Kinju baby berating HER mother for being career driven, modern minded,and wishing she had been different etc. is A-ok!?
It is very clear that these writers are trying to appeal to extremely backwards minded people in the audience who think only ONE type of mother is a "real" mother who deserves unquestioning love, respect, devotion, etc. (regardless of how wrong her actions may be). While mothers who don't fit into that neat little box can be insulted, disrespected and had faults found with their parenting by their kids at every turn (even if their position is actually logical/understandable)...
How stomach-turningly insensitive, hypocritical and regressive to openly promote such notions in this day and age... 🤢
The idea that only very traditional, gharelu ladies are good or "real" mothers is not only backwards though, it's just flat out WRONG.
I am not a mother yet but from what I can tell, being a good parent is about so much more than just following traditional gender roles of your culture... and one can definitely be a good mother or father without doing that!
I swear these makers on one hand are trying to chastise Pakhi and Toshu for berating Anupama as a mother for being uneducated, less westernised, etc and trying to send the message that children should love and respect the parents irrespective of their shortcomings, but at the same time they are glorifying Kinjal's defiance and berating of Rakhi as a mother.
Toshu, Kavya or anyone, if they name call Anupama Kinjal has a big problem lekin when Leela and everyone else calls her own mother a Naagin she is okay with that, and when Toshu shuts people up she has a problem. I'm like the makers have lost the plot.
Why can't the cvs just show Kinjal and Rakhi sorting the issue and discussing over whether they have to move to the penthouse or not?
