tHENDRAL mONDAY- uPDATE FOR June 11, 2012 - Page 4

I agree with you totally maha. That is the reason I stopped watching Kasturi long time ago. All these Tamil serials start so well, with women like Kasturi very emancipated, and suddenly they are into thaali sentiments, tolerate all the male chauvinism, tolerate the selfishness of heir so called atthais, goon culture etc. because they are all directed by male chauvinist directors, either they are so or they think the the Tamil audience is lke that and they want it. Super saintly heroines like Kasturi are used to promote these male chauvinist ideas. I thought thendral was going in a different direction. But I am getting disappointed. Now a days except for Nit's scenes, it is getting very draggy.

What is irritating me mostly is the way CT developing the characters in Thendral. Though both deserted their family for their own reasons, they have built so many cruel characteristics to Bhuvana and made every body to hate her and trying to build Lax as man with good heart.

Both TPS and TPS mom all talk so ill about Bhuvana's character and even say that she will run away with another guy deserting Lax, but no body talk like that to Lax. When he can leave TPS for Bhu, won't he leave them both behind and go for another women. Why isn't any one asking that to him. When Bhu can be asked such question so is Lax.

Earlier we even saw that Bhuvana had a trust which was paying tuition fees for kids who cannot afford and Prabha utilized that to pay Deepa's fees. Isn't that a good deed. But that was never touched in detail later.

They want to demean runaway wife and some how justify runaway husband.

[. Thulasi started her steps against her mom only after she made sure her mom has not changed a bit even after meeting her daughter/husgband(MM) after so many years and still a lady who openly said it was she who sent goons to chop her hand and said she might even killed her and said she feels ashamed to call her a daughter...if at all BHU has felt a bit sorry for her acts in deserting her kid T might not have been so stringent with Bhuvana...her anger towards Bhu is 100% justified...it would be wrong only when she went against bhu after bhu showed some signs og sorry...Did Bhu do that? she tried to justofy her acts and still hates T and calls it a right act...where as others do accept their mistake...as far as GW, thulasi's consideration is GW is much better than her mother who thinks she does good for her kids according to her(GW).. she knows GW is money minded too but her consideration is bcos atleast she had raised her kids in a good way by making herself suffer to feed/educate her kids...Thulasi is not a saint here but a normal human who forgives ones mistakes when the other end feels for the act whole heartedly...she thinks from other's perspective too as in why they did such mistake and not blindly support them...she counts for her forgiving act towards other but she doesnt have any when it is for BHU...before knowing Bhu s her mom she wanted to keep away from her but ever since she knew bhu never felt sorry for the act anyone in Ts position wd do so... it is the same director who showed thulasi walking away from tamil when she cannot put up TAs arrogance and making her prove her acts are right against C to her husbd...so i dont think T is portrayed as a saint but as in how a normal middle class indian/tamil girl would be...it is 100% sync with the character...she respects everyone's feeling is the point here but takes advatage to people whom she thinks wont betray her anytime(deepa,kalyani,TA)...she hinted nitish to correct lav mistakes but did not give any ideas as in how to...but the basic idea is from T ofc here...but acc to me lakshman character s the worst of all who changes mind acc to the situation who doesnt even think of what mistake he did but talks like as though he is at mistake and of all advising prabha,lav etc...he s the one to be punished of alll but shd be by TPS only

They want to demean runaway wife and some how justify runaway husband.
the intention seems different to me . they are showing that although both bhu n lax hv defaulted , at least lax feels guilt and given an opportunity he tries to redeem himself in some way...the way he helped MM during the drug case, the way he offered to compromise with tps, the way he whole heartedly accepted athai's proposition without a second thought to welcome them in his house,showing his gratitude to deepa and her father...also committed to the noble cause of his profession like attending to T even after knowing she slapped bhu...

@shubba, any normal girl will not forgive a mil like Gw. I would only call Sudha nor mal and T is shown as saintly. T was too ready to forgive MM even before he apologised. Ok at least I can nderstand that. In case of Bhu I hate the way the dir has created that character just because she violated her marriage and abandoned her child. She could have been made to feel sorry , but the idea is to create hatred towards a woman who crossed the line. While Lax is shown as magnanimous.

@Shubba, your quote: 'As far as sudha, she got crooked mind too and over smart. she is the right DIL for GW but not for a normal MIL from my POV.'

@shubba, Sudha had a reason to be crooked, because her Mil was berating her. Any person will try to,protect their turf. Sudha's anger was mostly because of Tamil doing idiotic things and not even feel sorry about it. Like giving away Puvi's check to some one and not telling them about it. Getting Puvi arrested by performing marriages. When she confronted him Gw was so insensitive to her and kept supporting her son. That is the time Sudha pointed out how badly they were brought up by Gw. Which is 120% true. If the mother in law was normal Sudha would be superb. Even despite all this Gw and Tamil non sense is she not responsible? As a wife or DIL?

Wow! What a debate!!!👏

Chillax! It is just a serial!😛

When we know some character (be it Thulasi or Bhuvana or anyone for that matter) is wrong, we (audience) make sure not to mistake like that. Simple as that!

Serials don't give solutions, just the mindset of one(anyone). And remember there are billions of people in the world. Centuries have seen different lives! We just know 50 people? 100?

Nalatha eduthitu, ketatha vidurathu avalothan!😊

@shubba, yes she did that. But immediately her father rectified it. She did it because la,Gw,TA were against her and they were on war path. That is why I am saying she is normal with normal anger and normal faults who some times make mistakes. But she and her father also got a good boy for La which they rejected after finding out Nit was available.but she is not inherently evil. She Is hot blooded and can be driven to revenge like a normal aggressive person.
