Oh! I have read all your posts in this discussions. I have liked majority of them as I understood them, even if I did not agree with some thoughts. Some I did not post my like because I would rather chew on the matter for digesting. But then others followed up on your posts and it made the debate interesting.😊 I am getting to know you.

I am new in this forum, so am happy knowing members here. Glad to meet you all.

For me more than the agreement or disagreement, mutual respect matters. Nothing more than that. And no one thing in this world is absolute. Everything is relative. So thoughts vary. Perfectly agreeable as we tend to make all kinds of equations anyways.


Must say MEIEJ has gripped me bad like fever.
I need to do weekend housekeeping and here I am sitting at the forum. 😆

Thanks..😊 Glad to meet you too. 😃But I must tell you, you are occasionally too deep and too philosophical for me to follow.. That makes the whole equation very interesting..

As for my comments on the thread:

I try not to judge too harshly and not be too cynical in my outlook. It doesnt always work. But it does help lighten my mind to a certain extend.

Some ideas may represent my personal view. Others on how I perceive the character and their actions.

Meta peeps,

As the weekend draws to a close, at least where I am, i wish to thank you all for a totally sick chai party. Who would like to convene next weekend's party? Topic will be there choice, as will the first comment. If it is helpful, we could copy and paste the definition of meta on the new thread, to encourage new participation. what do you think? Also, perhaps a firmer stance discouraging completely unrelated spamming as we got yesterday?

To me, this was a huge success. The range ideas and quality of discussion were very high, and I enjoyed every moment of it!

salute!


Oh! come on. It was not at all a sick chai party. Now that's from this Indian NRI to a Brit, so famous for their biting humour 🤣

I am gonna continue posting my random META posts if the coming week has another exciting game and fall-out between RK and MB.

But weekend Chai-party, I think you should be the convener again. Its your seed. Until it germinates, you better be the nurturer for a while. As for me, let me the lazy one, just hanging out and supporting here and there. 😉 😆

Topic ...we should wait for next week. Who knows what's in store for us and what might sway us !!

It would have been illegal for her to marry Malik, not immoral. There's a difference, isn't there? But I do agree with you that her life wasn't wasted. If she didn't feel the need to marry Malik, then so be it. No reason why she should've done that if she didn't want to. I do think she was a bit unwise in allowing Malik to give his name to the girls though; she just set them up for uncomfortable situations in the future. When your children bear the name of a man and you live with him, obviously people are going to assume you are married to/in a relationship with the man. Someone as worried about societal acceptance as Padmini is should've thought things through... I don't know if I'm making any sense here

i hold soem experience of some thoughts of remarriage crossing my mind for some fleeting seconds. err i guess it is not that abnormal to wish u hadnt married ur current spouse and had got married to sm1 else ... specially when u have just faught. 😆
but i certainly came to the conclusion, if a woman is nto happy with her first marriage and is able to escape it, she is highly unlkely to be considering a second marriage . u see one gets disillusionised witht he conugal bliss and if the economic reasons are not pressing, i dotn think women entertain the idea of physical relationship with another man so easily. in my opinion , if a woman is self sufficient, we should not see her inability to remarry as a form of weakness in her. infact she has learnt to move on without the cruches of a man.
somehow padmini not marrying shamsher dsnt bother me one single bit.

i read somewhere people questioning why she still wears mangalsutra.
i think in time we will definitely hear soem explaination fom padmini.
but till then : well she puts it on to avoid unnecessary questions people may have about the origin of her daughters.
and giving her a bit of social security against predators.
thats all there is to it. but for the part performign rituals for ballu well thats quite frankly SICK. and Cvs shud do away with it.

@ anjana i think the points being stressed were why, when she has partaken of all the benefits of marriage vis a vis Mallik, ( I will not mention the sexual component here) , she continued to stick to the hypocrisy of maintaning a charade of marital purity.

I would have admired he characterisation much more has she been shown to take on the identity of a separated woman.

has anyone thought of Malik here? Why did he not marry, have a family? Surely, the big sacrifice is his, as he gave up his own dreams to live life along the lines Padmini chose for herself and her daughters.

i would again like to reiterate , please consider her situation and surrundings. she lives in a chawl with people who may still hold conservative beliefs. she is not living in a high class or even a middle class society for people to treat a single mother with dubious past kindly. in lower class india it is still common for men to consider a single/divorsee/widow woman as available. her defense is quite frankly , flimsy btu that is all seh can think of.
so she is actually trying to fit in managing to bring least attention to herself.when in rome, dress like a roman.
that is my opinion. i need not be correct but thats the only explaination i can think of.

as for mallik, i feel true love s beyond physical , material, social aspects.
it is merely a wish to protect the one you love and keep her always happy.
i dont see how marriage was needed here especially if mallik never felt the need. it actually makes his love very pure.
upar se i think padmini is still very much legally married to ballu. without divorse remarriage is impossible. perhaps that is why she is shown to not marry shamsher.

Once bitten, twice shy. I've had some weird experiences before. Have decided I'd better put disclaimers while making controversial (however slightly) points. I didn't mean to comment on the levels of acceptance on this thread 😃 😃


We pay no heed to the baying fundamentalists on this genteel forum! Indeed, it is best to ignore them. Sarcasm does not work, nor do clever arguments ( i don't think they understand them and have no idea they've just been bitch-slapped from here to Sunday)

Now I pity them, but ignore them completely, and so should you! But they are not goingbto make me change my online behaviour, and nor should they be able to pressure other people who have interesting things to say.

Now I'll talk about Radha. Radha's character has not been developed so much in the show, but from what I have seen I would say she is a simple and loving mother. Sometimes I think she is nervous or scared of Rishab depending on the situation, which makes her stay quiet and/or be a little reserved when talking to Rishab, though when she is really angry she does speak her mind to Rishab and pushes his buttons. She also seems like a traditional woman, who needs to be married instead of being a widow, since a widow's life is harder than a married woman's in some respects.
