Btw everyone has explained their thoughts very well....great job girls👏


I agree, Crystal, this has been a good discussion. Look, honestly speaking, we all have very divergent opinions, perspectives, and sense of boundaries (entertainment vs. social messaging). And even after reading some responses, we are not going to necessarily change our opinions. But it is a good and needed discussion...because, as individuals on this forum, we interpret and see many things on many levels.

Hey Parul! How u doing? You pressed the like button on my previous post but didn't speak to me on that thread 😔 Hope all's well.

These were my thoughts exactly but during the first wedding. I was pulling my hair out seeing this woman simply stand there & take all that punishment mutely.Illiterate or not no girl will simply go through that sham of a marriage without even a token protest..That's how I lost respect for this character. Letting herself be trampled like that was really low. I have always felt Dutta's awful but justified reaction during the first wedding was in part due to Nakusha's maddening silence.In her "mahaanta" & "Saab-ko-dukh-pahunchega" attitude she gladly chose to become a sacrificial goat.
But not now,Parul. Now when I saw her getting hurt yet keeping quiet I thought "But then what else can she do?" This time its not "Mahaanta" or "sacrifice" its purely self-interest.Now hear me out, please.She & no one else stands to lose if she doesn't calms D down & make him hear her out. Now Nakusha is not a greedy girl but then since we have seen her meet D she has thought of only herself & her love.Since day one she's had eyes only for her love, Dutta. Many a times she barely notices anybody else in PN.I haven't seen her make a cup of tea for her love's mother. 😆Then where did the sacrifice for others issue come in? So in order to win back her love she has to bear with the shoving & yelling, no other go. I'd be the last person to condone such behaviour by D but that's matter for another discussion. As far as Nakusha is concerned at this time if she wishes to salvage anything of her relationship & love keeping mum is the way to go.
As for TV serials aiming to garner TRPs by displaying abuse of women its really a shame. Watching women being tortured in myriad ways has sadly become a national pastime. As I wait for LTL to begin I watch a few scenes of Balika Vadhu as it ends. A few weeks ago I saw Gehna give it to her MIL.Loads. Made me so glad but then yesterday I saw her grovelling at her feet asking maafi.🤢Yuck!


Got your PM, see my response.😃

See, Nakusha is a lot of things in my view...not so bright, kind, naive, borderline compulsive liar😉 (kidding), but love is one of those things that drags you into a vacuum where other things temporarily cease to exist. Just like a black hole.😆 Can't fully explain it.

She has never supposedly fallen in love with someone AND have it be requited/returned. So from that perspective, I understand her "focus".😆

But I do agree with you in that she has two roads ahead of her and she knows damn well what they are: stay and win Dutta back OR walk away. And Dutta is her love and a life with him is her dream come true. She is not about to give him up or give up on him....so I can kind of understand that.

I don't think shows per se want to degrade women. I think they show what viewers have come to accept...and are generally okay with. And, unfortunately, one of these things includes showing women in certain ways. Some shows do show women as the better half in many ways, more mature, more patient, and even more motherly -- even to their husbands. YIKES! Freud anybody?😕😆

My sole contention is that it is terribly QUESTIONABLE to show that women can change their condition and others by being ALWAYS patient , loving, motherly, and accepting whatever may come....that's somehow courageous? Damn right, it's courageous, because in reality women who are forced to live with those "standards of womanly behavior" are probably crying in some corner of their home...alone....suffering alone takes tons of courage.

Hmmm.....but parul our society is changing for the better surely but gradually....Present times are quite unlike the past and things are not like what they used to be,like 20 or 30 years ago.There is a visible and a much-needed change in the society's -- both urban and rural- attitude towards women and their predicaments and plight... Although the 'preferences' and the 'likings' are still there but there is a definite change in the perspective and for the betterment and a sense of what is right and what is wrong, what is appropriate and what is not.

This momentum has to be continued and maintained and not confined to a certain level because only through awareness at all levels one can really expect to see any 'real' change and development and not only superficially i.e continuous and dedicated and sincere action and efforts and not words will bring about this transformation.

And yes, i think serials,movies have definitely an important and major role to play in all this. It would be great if they show both sides of the coin, fairly and without any biases, and continue to aware the masses and help them understand and sympathize with the situation..But in such competitive times, i think they often overlook this and concentrate only on the monetary aspect. 😊
