a marriage...i feel...is a personal decision.
yes, we do like to celebrate this occasion with lots n lots of people...but proposals, selections/decisions, reasons for chosing or prefering are personal and subjective...different people have different selection criteria.rakhi has make a mockery of herself by going public with this whole thing.but we are enjoying it..at the same time...i find her a shallow person for doing all this.i respect her for all her achievements, boldness and confidence...but i have lost some respect for her for making a propaganda of the whole process of selecting a life partner...she is making money out ofher personal life!!!....
this is not something like choosing a president or an indian idol...where the whole world has to be made a part of the selection process...and each candidate has to put his agenda (or personal attributes before the whole world and not just the girl and family he wants to marry...
do share your thoughts on this...

i totally disagree


read this thread to see why:
https://www.indiaforums.com/forum/rahul-dulhaniya-le-jaayega-swayamvar-season-2/1211738/im-on-rakhis-side-see-my-list-of-reasons-plz

its the SAFEST way for a celeb like her to get married!


6) THIS IS THE SAFEST WAY FOR A POPULAR STAR TO GET MARRIED
This is a SAFE way for Rakhi to get married. She's more likely to be betrayed if she doesn't get married on television. This way lots of people are watching the show...so r all keeping a close eye on the contestants. It wud be very difficult for the contestants to lie and get away wid it! (for example even Ather Pervez HAD to tell the truth....otherwise he wud definitely hav been caught)...afterall millions of people around the world are watching this show!

safest way to get married ! ??? ...heard of safest way to deliver goods...safest ways of investment...safest ways etc etc...but never heard of any safe ways of getting married....hahah😆
there is no garunteed safety for any marriage...be it a celeb or ordinary person...similarly, there is no safety garunteed in this swayamvar too...nothing shown in this swayamvar can help them sustain the marriage...the contestants cannot lie about basic facts...but u still dont know what they hide!
and i dont think rakhi is thinking of safety here....she is making big money outta this...try and see the real picture! this is a bigger tamasha than any of ekta-kapoor's series...don't get emotional about it...just take it for it's entertainment value😆

denver_diva, you're right, this is a TV show and we should take it for entertainment, but I don't think that necessarily means the marriage has to be fake or a tamasha that is all about money.

It is possible that through a practical arrangement such as this TV show, and even despite getting paid and all of this, it is also still a practical and real way to get married for a TV celebrity such as herself. It also means that through televising this process, jo hai woh saamne hai. This fits in with the rest of her life, doesn't it? Jo bhi hai, saamne hai.

Even arranged marriages are a bit cold and practical. They are not that personal like love marriages. A lot of people get married based on practical arrangements - status, money, family, kundli, and then they tie the knot and treat it like a real marriage. And it seems to work for so many people!

In fact even love marriages have something to do with status and all these other practical compatibility things, like the way people get set up or go on blind dates to try to find someone. It's only in bollywood movies where we see the kind of love at sight kind of love stories where the guy and girl are in love with each other despite every odds.

In this case the practical arrangement also involves reality TV format, that's all.

I think its too early to come to any conclusion. We have to wait till finale. u never know what will happen 2morrow on RKS. Lets see what will be the outcome of this Swayamvar.....Hope all this is not fake...otherwise whatever respect is left for Rakhi will be ruined in sec's....

whether this show is fake or not...i feel it was a disgusting idea to publicly select a life partner...the celebration after selection can be in public...but the selection is too personal for any human being...rakhi has made her personal life public to make bucks! she could have had the same swayamvar without any channel airing it...and tcould have had her wedding and all ceremonies telecast live.i would have respected her more in that case....but this is just my opinion...others may vary.

talking about the "safety" of a swayamvar...lord ram (with all due respect to him) left his wife sita...and the marriage broke off, inspite of the much talked about swayamvar they had...😳
so a marriage works only if it has to...be it love/arranged/swayamvar...all methods r equally safe or equally unsafe

Today i saw in Headllines Today that Rakhi might backout of swayamvar. She is coming to US on Aug 8 for some stage shows.

The way she shows herself so polite and the way she talks anyone can make out she is faking it
