Heya Ppl,


Second Post. I love this show for the characters, psychology, psychological skills and skills used in this show is similar to that of The Flash.


Malavika comes from chronic and complex trauma, her out going personality is to hide nerd for love and belonging, low self esteem, pleasing personality, getting easily manipulated, not seeing patterns n red flags just to name some. She longs for connection and love (just like Anuj), hence she was never able to break the cycle of wrong relationships especially her love life cycles. She never judges a person on first time. When someone constantly longs for love, all they need is caring personality and that is how they easily get manipulated and falls in the syndrome.

I love the skills n techniques used in the show. The way they touched inter generational trauma (through 50's jubilee celebration, Pakhis words on relationships). YUP. Totally to the point.

I may add more

Are we even watching the same show? This show has made mockery of all types of psychological disorder and trauma.

Arrey i thought all knew


Dr anupama devi cured Malvika of depression and PSTD with pillow therapy long back


Pillow phad therapy


Honestly instead of this pakhi adhik nonsense drama and kintoshu baby drama i would prefer Malvika and her depression and her ex hubby story how they handle that


Its a very senitive topic as many men in world hit abuse or rape wives


But its all kept secret by extended families withing homes


Imagine Malvika getting guts to confront her ex hubby and punish him


Court do not do much but she can punish him other ways


Would love to see such a track so all abused wife get braveness to confront their demon hubby who rape them and hit them


As per anupama devi vanraj neverabused her so i have no hope of vanraj getting karma


atlease mukku hubby should get karma for hitting a 22 year old US educated girl and raping her for a year after marraige


just thinking of that makes me angry that Mlavika hubby roaming free outside


In my FF andhiyan i will ensure Vanraj gets worst punishment so will Mukku ex hubby That is why i have introduced anuj parents and grandparents to give Vanraj and mukku ex hubby the punishment for all their crimes because anuj parents will not get influenced by Shahs or anupama like an anuj and hero worship them and just treat them like victim family treat abusers

Hmm Pillow Therapy?? It is a mix of psycho drama, enactment of role model (little modifications)..


Show highlighted many times that in our culture we never acknowledge or address any mental health concerns, domestic violence, emotional/physical/neglect/bullying n etc.

How did the show highlight that? Vanraj did all that to Anupama but he was the one shown to console Malavika. An abuser is shown consoling an abuse victim. Anupama never acknowledges she was as much a victim as Malavika, she instead tried to deny she faced any abuse. She calls her abuser names like acche pita


It's a mockery of abuse victims everywhere


The show didn't highlight anything except give lip service in a couple of lines. There is a difference between words and action. And in action Anupama still respects and worships her abuser and spends every day with him and in his house.


In real life no women would tolerate her abuser like this, particularly after marrying someone else and moving out. Even the worst victim with insecurity, lack of self respect and Stockholm syndrome realizes their errors after moving out and shrugs off their dependency on the abuser. You can read about so many testimonies of abused women, all of them agree that moving out is what helped them and made them snap out of the abusive relationship


Yet Anupama even after moving out respects and worships her two abuser in Vanraj and Baa and both these characters have faced no consequences for what they did. They have been rewarded with respect and whitewashing


Audiences are not dumb. They know the difference between someone saying some random speeches about abuse and what the show actually stands for


And the show stands for whitewashing an abuser, where the victim, who is the protagonist, worships an abuser and constantly spends time with him
