i don't think GKLB is copying TKTG....they are totally different shows.

Here in TKTG the women aren't allowed to say anything, and thats mainly it. But in GKLB the daughters are treated like garbage. You can't even compare the two shows, they are worlds apart😊

yea i agree withmost of wht has been said here. I don't think these directors mean to offend any ethnicity. They are just trying to get more viewers of that groups of ppl. Like a lot of the shows b4...everyone was always Punjabi...so i guess they are trying to find a balance...as for the gender issues...it's not the ethnicity that is responsible..it is the culture and the mind set. It changes from family to family. And no not all gujjus are like that...at least I'm not 😆

I've noticed one thing that in some shows like TKTG ,GKLB,BAYP,KSBKBT thye alwyas use gujju familes like in TKTG they show Mansukh as a hard headed man who thinks that women are weak. In Ghar Ki Lakshmi Betiyaan ,Suryakant thinks that the daugjhters are a burden and in the other show on star one followws the same concept and KSBKBT....I dotn even know where to begin!!!anways but why do they use gujju's as an example for these shows! I mean this is sterotyping and I'm a gujju and I've never seen another gujju family do this type oif thinggs before!I think that this is wrong



u don' tknow everything
becouse u have lived in US
i have lived in INDIA GUJARAT IN VILLAGE FOR 13 YEARS

not exectly like this but in india for girls there are lotz of rules

this thing is changing😛
but IT WAS LIKE THAT

I agreed that serial directors are just targeting gujju and they just want to show that all this happens in gujju family.

what i find very irritating is that if you watch indian tv, you would think that the only people who live in india are gujjus, punjabis, bengalis or marawari bussiness house families. there is an odd Marathi show now and then but everyone else is by and large ignored. i haven't seen a show where the principle characters were Muslim, Christians or Parsees in decades. And what about Tamils, Malayalees, Konkanis, Kashmiris etc? And what about the people from the North East? Do they not exist at all? all other communities appear as stereotypes in small roles and mostly not even that. this angers me even more than the way they show the Gujarati community. incidentally, i'm a gujarti too.

instead of looking at it this way...u can also say KSBKBT is a huge hit...
the virani's are shown darn rich...and they treat women with respect...so stop creating differences when there arent any...

so plz...dun create useless issues...
