what is next level feminists? I mean a normal feminist. I don't think a girl forcing herself to marry the brother of her boyfriend n living with them in same house is feminist move at all. It's stupid. In fact, it is totally anti-feminist move. Jo speech Rajesh ne di, wahi same baat Nisha khud sabko samjhati then i would've considered her a feminist. U clearly don't know the meaning of feminist

Okay if you say so

i know it. I'm talking about after she got to know that she is getting married to rajesh. U said that she had no choice left. That is not the way of feminist. A feminist would've told prem 'if u don't wanna marry me, its ok. But i won't marry ur brother' that is the feminist. 'i have no choice left. It's my marriage day. I should do the stupid sacrifice' that r NOT the thoughts of feminists. N what is this 'everyone was busy in festivities, no1 was listening to her' anyone can tell anything to their parents in whole 24 hours if they actually tries to. Ek line bolni thi bass 'i won't marry rajesh' her mom would've definitely atleast listened to her leaving all her work

You know, I agree with you. I never found Nisha in HAHK to be a feminist, but this conversation did get me thinking about the definition of feminism.

In countries like India, many women wholly believe in feminist ideals but often cave to family or societal pressures. It takes courage to go against what is expected of you, and not everyone has the courage. Does not having the courage to do something deny someone the ability to be a feminist? Just food for thought.

There are many but Rani in Veer Zaara. When women stand up for what they believe in , its feminism. 🫡

i don't agree that madhuri was a feminist in hahk. She agreed to marry her beloved's brother without any valid reason. That dog had to speak for them. A feminist would've told the truth n she would've never agreed to marry the brother of her boyfriend knowing fully well how awkward it would become after marriage. Prem's brother rajesh was more feminist who told her to marry the person she loved n take care of his child as maasi. That was sensible coz rahenge toh same hi ghar me. Apne boyfriend se shadi b ho jaegi n apni dead sister ka bachha b sambhal legi

ohh, yeah to mere dimag mein bhi naahi aaya. Thanks for reminding me. :)
