Half baked Knowledge of Poojas

I don't know what kind of poojas the scriptwriters attend , and what they see , but whatever they show is really utter rubbish .
I saw the pooja that the Father in law is doing secretly at night yesterday , and really it made no sense . If it is a black magic ritual , the shlokas in the background r holy , auspicious ones............like mangalam bhagwan Vishnu etc . The holy pranav syllable , Om , is repeated many times .but the pooja itself is anything but holy . The Father in law is scooping fistfuls of Haldi { turmeric ] and Kum kum { red tilak powder ] and throwing it .
Firstly , no one sits for poojas or even black magic rituals with plates full of mounds of Haldi and Kumkum like this . Hladi and Kumkum r generally in a special small box as it is applied to the god worshipped only once during the starting of the pooja..................that is the pupose of these two items . So taking a mound of Haldi and Kumkum and sitting like this makes no sense , especially outside where the wind blows , the powders will fly in the pooja doer's eyes .
Secondly , fistfuls of Hali and Kumkum r not thrown like this in any fire , even by black magic practicioners . I repeat , they r not ingredients for offerings , they r ingredients for veneration ........for showing respect to the deity by applying it on its forehead . Grains like rice , urad dal , oil , ghee r put in fire , yes ,never haldi and kumkum in fistful amounts . Tantriks use gulal and Haldi more than kumkum , yes , but for smearing it on forehead alone . Remember , even Tantriks r appeasing their God , so they will not throw fistful of powders so rudely in a fire .
They had shown Gujrathis celebrating Karva Chauth instead of Vat Savitri . There is utterly no knowledge of Indian Culture in this serial . Not only r women insulted , even our culture is insulted by these half baked knowledgewallahs . Indian culture is beautiful and ancient and unparalled . This distortion must stop . Jhanvi wears antiquated designer sarees , with heavy metallic borders ...........no woman can tolerate such heavy sarees on her body in a kitchen for a full day . This is not how Indian women dress up , this a a fancy dress party . It saddens to see our culture being portrayed like this .

Maybe Jhanvi's FIL is trying out a new rangoli design he dreamt about - LOL!! This show is full of contradictions & tamashas! I totally agree on every point especially the point about wearing antique jewlery & sarees all day - that too in the heat of India.

U know , in places like Jejuri , where Shiva is worshipped as Khandoba , they do use haldi and often throw it up in the air as they climb up the steps , doing his jai jaikaar ................and gulal , a pink powder used on Holi day , is sometimes thrown , but never like this , so rudely . It isfor doing jai , it is an act of veneration . They miss this point totally in serials . What Jhanvi wears , I sumtimes wonder if a clanking noise comes when she walks .

This serial is as far from reality as it gets. From the sounds of it, it seems like the FIL is performing some sort of black magic ritual but still yaar....
Here's the thing, how does Jhanvi manage to sneak around & play P.I. wearing all of that? Must be a struggle to ensure no noise comes from her get up!

😆😆 Even I didn't "get" that pooja. He basically took the thaali, threw fistfuls of haldi and sindhoor in the air and voila!!!! The pooja was done. Also, I noticed that the place he prayed, looks to be of a female "deity or bhooth". Jhanvi had put bangles, chunari as chadawa there last thursday I think. I wonder why that guy is praying over there. This show really is far from reality. I think the writers just throw some stuff in there especially to tick us off. And koolsadhu jee, I'm now a fan of your posts. They are better than the show loll.

👏soooooooooooo true . Exactly my thoughts . Frankly , its none of the bahu's business . Her husband is her business ..............poking nose into what bluntly others have shown blatant irritation at her questions and prying , is none of her business 👏..............Each house has its past , leave them alone , be happy with ur hubby and do ur duty and just shut up is the real nswer to life .

Madhu I agree with lots of points. True abil and gulal are thrown only . But kumkum and haldi are used to smear and nothing else. and as for fire only things like til jav ghee and other stuff are thrown. Kumkum and other stuff is put either on a leaf or supari or coconut.
and true being a gujarati I never had heard of karva chauth till I watched it in movies.
I also don't understand who they worship and what is the broken bangles and mangal sutras are doing near something that looks swimminng pool . I don't understand who thakur worships.
