I think the writers are going with this character the way they are to show the consequences of a child spoilt by their parents or in this case, a single parent. Usually we see the sons being the spoiled one but they’ve refreshingly shown a spoiled daughter which is not shown a lot on TV. Even arrogant daughters who are snobs are usually shown as being considerate of their parents and families. These characters are also mostly played by the character who is the sister of the male lead more often than not to portray her as the evil nanad archetype eventually when the usually poor heroine gets married to the brother. Here they’re being bold enough to make the girl the daughter of the protagonists.
I think the writers intend to show the rather dire and tragic consequences of raising your children like Pari eventually even if it is not a fun ride for us as viewers who have to wait and get frustrated by the lack of punishment or consequences faced by Pari. But that’s perhaps precisely the point.
Pari stated in her tirade yesterday that she didn’t once think of anything when she fell in love regarding the issues that might befall her because she was assured that her father would be there for her. That’s precisely the problem that the makers want to address perhaps. Parents who spoil their children like Mihir did here do so out of love and affection for their children; kids learn to take advantage of the love of their parents and expect to be protected from the repercussions of anything and everything they do owing to their parents, not because they are sure that their parents love them, but because they are so sure that their parents love them blindly. They know their parents would do anything for them even if they are wrong and so they can do anything and get away with everything.
These kids are not at fault for this attitude though because the parents have failed here. It is the responsibility of the parents to teach their kids accountability and responsibility. It is the parents who have to instil in their children the ability to make decisions with foresight and understand the outcome of the same before they leap into action. It is parents who must let them suffer sometimes so that they might learn some hard and harsh lessons that they will need to survive.
Because at the end of the day even if someone has parents who are powerful, influential; they’re still mortals and a day will come when the child who has grown up to be irresponsible, reckless, selfish and dangerous will repeat the same mistakes again because that’s who they’ve become but they won’t have their parents around to protect them anymore.
Pari might and will ultimately face the music. But first she must get to the point where there’s no return. Mihir is starting to see his mistakes when it comes to his daughter but it is still too little too late. Pari hasn’t yet even begun her journey of downfall because she has to get what she wants first. Sometimes the things we want the most are the things that destroy us.
Very well written 👏👏👏. At times parents are so blind in love with their kids that they forget to instill good values in them and when they grow up they become a nuisance for the society. They start with smaller crimes like this Pari and later on do much bigger crimes and they think their parents will stand by them. Mihir has understood his mistake and I hope he lets her live in a chawl rather than making her live with him. He shouldn't give her anything. She has to face her life alone.
shame on him
