In 4th Dec episode Siddhi was utleast shown telling abhay he was crossing the line ---but to stand quiet while he called her his wife??? A man who threatened the life of her child, forced her into marriage, abused her & is now trying to destroy her life with her family -----

I think the most shameful thing in the episode was when Kunal stood with his head bowed & allowed another man to call his wife as his ---- Kunal is a lawyer & while he honors the court verdict regarding his son he has no regard for his wife the mother of his children ???

In an era where there is a nation wide ongoing fight to instill a sense of respect & dignity for women with the recent rape case incident it is really appalling to see a serial depict a woman as though she had no value or say in her life --where a rich man can say or do anything despite a court verdict & her legal husband stands by & does nothing because he basically does not respect her or the law for that matter - What message is the serial sending???--- Its sad that Parichay continues to portray women in such poor light, hope the upcoming episodes has a complete change in the way women are depicted –

How can women succeed in they fight if nationally televised serials show even educated women as helpless, defenceless people whose destiny & lives are determined by men --- If woman are to be respected it the basic mindset of the way men perceive & treat them which needs to be changed in addition to women standing up for themselves & this is where the media needs to share in the social responsibility & ensure that it does not send messages which negatively impact women ---

Hope the makers of Parichay seriously look at the content of the story & the message it portrays & show women in a more positive way in the upcoming episodes----

I agree Sarah, the woman in show is treated like an object who gets insulted everyday & the woman stands dumb,mute & blind to all this 😡 What happened to the feisty gal who used to give back royally to anyone before they could open their mouth to disrespect her? Am more disappointed with SIddhi who seem to have lost her self respect on the way of becoming sacrificial sati savitri 😡

How can you except to others to respect Siddhi when she herself is standing mute & taking on insults?

Sid said to Kunal the other day that she is his wife and has rights on him. I don't understand why she stands quite when Abhay calls her his wife in front of everyone. She stops Abhay from insulting Kunal further but doesn't stop him from saying anything about her to Kunal! This show has lost all the respect and dignity it once carried. The lead woman is shown as a mere object with absolutely no self-respect. I still can't believe these dumb and brainless leads are the greatest lawyers of their time!

I seriously think that now every PH house starts thinking and starts portraying women n why only women even the men in better light. I am not even asking that it should be like real, but am sure drama can be shown with a bit of reality in it too. I wont get into the Sid/Kunal thing coz in my POV both are wrong and not once but on many occasions.

there was an intrvw that i was listening to y'day n in that the actor clearly says that the writers become lazy or stagnate after 300 to 400 episodes and then they start to reuse their previous work but it needs to change. I want to tell the writers that there is no harm in using some old stuff at times but then use the good tracks and ADD something from the present times, present situations. shows/tracks that were appealing 10 yrs back might look ridiculous now. Change needs to be bought in according to the Era we live in and if this simple thing is followed, am sure the shows will get better, appeal to every kind of audience and also get good TRPs.

hi

Siddhi herself should stand up for her rigths and dignity. She should tell abhay infront of everyone that she is not his wife. Th fact that he keeps getting away with calling her his wife infront of all, is bec of siddhi herself doesnt tell him off. Abhay knows sinal's weakness and plays with that and manages to get what eh wants.

how i wish siddhi slaps abhay infront of all

really hope the makers make the leads characters strong, sensible and dignified.

The way yesterday abhay said to siddhi-kunal that soon siddhi will come back to him and she will get freedom from kunal, kunal was upset and walked off and siddhi was mute. intolerable.

in precap too siddhi was in abhay's bedroom i think. what was the need, just to add further mess

It is Siddhi who should break her silence and Abhay for saying such things to her and kunal as well..calling kunal's wife only in bedroom won't help...accept it in public and tht would be good slap in face of Abhay...

Let's forget about Siddhi's reaction when on insult Kunal was given.
But it is highly disgusting to see Abhay calling her his wife, almost like a commodity; in front of everyone and she stands there mute. WT*? She can say to Kunal in private I have every right for being your wife but not in public? She would confront Abhay in private, why? Giving him respect by addressing aap? What about your self-respect? How can she take this cheap guy calling her his wife in public?

Makers have crossed all the limits now. Both leads have no self-respect, ounce of dignity or true strength. They are constantly being portrayed weak & helpless anyone can just cone indult them, say whatever they want & easily manipulate like mere prop. Both will give each other lectures & stupid nok-jhok but will stay mute when necessary to talk?
I have tolerated more than enough & can't see leads like this. If nothing changes soon, adios.

Loved your post Sarah.
And you oncen ot too long ago suggested,Parichay to handle cases like the raped victim case?How is that possible, when they are not capable of handling their own issues.?When Abhay calls Siddhi as his wife, both Kunal and Siddhi remain silent instead of just slapping him across his face.! Case closed. Any normal human being will react and get enraged with another man calling his own wife as his wife but not Kunal. And Siddhi will tell off Richa but not Abhay who takes every opportunity to address her as his wife and she just stands there doing nothing.!
Like you mentioned now would be a good time to show people like Abhay how to respect woman . And who better to do it than Kunal Chopra as this passes as a good social message to everyone who wants to mess up with some woman and treat woman as a mere object.
And also to send message to woman like Richa, that she too cannot just expect to be in Kunal's life after all the shameful stuff she did as this message does not just apply to protect woman but man as well, especially married ones, where the ex comes into their lives and acts as if nothing happened and worst the victimised family accepting and worshipping her some kind of queen. and forgetting what she did to the family.
So to balance out the social messages, KC and SC should stay united and teach Abhay and Richa that they will not tolerate thier presence in their life and they should take a court restrainin order against the both to keep them harming their family. I think it would be good for KC to take abhay to court for marrying his wife and file a case against Richa for all the mess she caused in his life.
But importantly the CVs must realize this when they are writing the scripts. They dont seem to be very knowledeable in what's happening around them or otherwise they will not continuously degrade women like they do Siddhi and show Richa with so much love and respect.. I guess inorder to that they have to respect their own mothers, sisters , wives and girlfriends? Question is do they even know the meaning of respecting a woman when they think her just as an object to be used for household chores and pleasure and lastly for maximum abuse!
Hope to see more positive episodes in Parichay.
