CVs, STOP SENDING DANGEROUS MESSAGES TO KIDS! - Page 13

A huge thanks to you, Napstermonster for putting up this most pertinent of posts and for once again flagging up an issue that has been troubling a lot of us in this forum,, that of KKG having to put up with Shyam's behaviour, which is evil and even ASR's aggression in some of the earlier epis, which while not evil, was nevertheless uncomfortable to watch.

But a bigger thanks for your most appropriate response to this post which, I'm afraid, got me so mad that I couldn't trust myself to respond without being extremley rude and impolite. It is only a victim of violence who can know how threatening and terrifying violence or even the threat of violence can be.

And worse the accusation that is used to justify the violence - the victim has brought it upon herself. I have been there, and I know what that is. Despite being a very highly educated woman ( I have a Ph.D!) coming from a very liberal and loving background, it took me a very long time to realise that I was not the cause of the violence.
It fills me with horror even to this day (and will probably do so for the rest of my life), even a safe 17 years since that dark period of my life that I was the one who allowed it happen having somehow allowed myself to believe that I deserved it. And I am proud of myself for having walked out of it, though the shame of it will never leave me.

So, Ms rani-lucki, it IS the responsibility of any media not to reinforce anything that gives credence and value to violence of any kind as the things they depict DO inform attitudes, prejudices and in turn behaviour in real life. So it is not just important, but ESSENTIAL that the women in the show are shown to be strong enough to not to put up with abuse of any kind.

To add to the above post. Star plus have a Nayi Soch approach, whereby they are trying to portray how one can make a difference.

this is just a work of fiction... something made up

if the audience has the sense to understand wot is happening in the drama serial, they will hav a sense of not to follow the wrong things

this show is not a lecture on life, its just for enjoyment

not making such posts which discourage the makers--they put a lots of hard work in to the show, if u don't like wots going on then don't watch

the CV's can't take responsibility for every good or bad thing happening to viewers

if parents think this drama is not suitible for their children then they should ban them from watching it

the CV's the the right to explore any topic they like, arnav and kkg can't always be doinng "rabba ve" and the rest of the raizada household playing violins in the background

sori if this seems like a rant but i'm sick of seeing such depressing topics :-)

We all can hide behind a phrase that "it's just a work of fiction", but this is usually said when your able to criticizes a show and then you have another person who enjoyed the show and will rebut with "It's just a work of fiction." So I ask there is no difference?

I believe work of fiction is never just a work of fiction, when written with a purpose of touching people's heart in certain way. And I tend to agree that it is not "just fiction" cause what goes into the mind does not simply fall back out if you stuff it in there over and over and over again.

My understanding has always been that words have power, as much as actions cause people always take words to the heart and we are so heavily influenced by the artists of society, and we don't even realize it.

If we expect Khushi to rise above all, it's not just for being a woman but as a person fighting against wrong.

I agree it is a work of fiction. But is it not a wonderful opportunity for the makers to take it to a new level. Anyway star plus has embarked on a positive approach which all the other serials are following.

i started watching show from beginning. the way they shown khushi's character i thought she would reveal shyam identity and fight even though no one support her. that is what i actually waiting since july. the strength, the women power but cv's want nothing but money, trp's popularity. they do not care about people's feelings. sorry for being harsh but it is true. i was extremely disappointed. then some people may ask why i didn't left this this show, if i can do that i may not have been typing this. they wanted to show love intensity. there are many ways to show that. i'am not aganist any mu.they can carve mu more better without ruining khushi's character, maintaining the same intensity as before. they can introduce tracks like khushi and anjali together will try to change shyam without acknowledgement of family members.the possibilities are unlimited. it seems like cv's are lacking of ideas.many are saying that story is going downhill, loosing it's charm since marrige and due to dragging. but i think ipk's charm uniqueness is ended in december then on-wards they started ruining every thing that is worth watching there is nothing but stupid romance between brain less character less leads. now don't blame me for criticizing that is cv's fault.
now i'am feeling better by throwing my frustration out here.thank u dear for making such a meaningful wonderful post.

this is probably the best post i've read on this forrum in a long, long time. 👏

totally agree with you

I never thought of it this.way and after reading ur post I totally agree with u I just hope they in the show they dont get to the point were they will that khushi has been raped by shyam headover that would be horrible :(

Navin thank you for writing this. This is very relevant and so true. This is a question I always ha with kushi's character. She is eighteen not tens so she should be feeling uneasy and have some context of sexual relations . She is living with a man like a child but there is that physical element out there. She completely ignores Shyam and his physical advances of her. Even when he taunted ' what will you do' she does not see any danger she is off to do stuff to annoy Arnav . She dosent even know how far Arnav will go on the physical side if he is enraged beyond a point.
The Cv's really need to think of the social aspects of this show. Being a prime time show at that. It terrifies me that she sees no danger in living with a man who does not respect his marriage does not respect her marriage and is constantly after her and she thinks her biggest problem is Arnav . Cv's wake up!
