What do you think guys?
No matter whether it is rural or urban family, couples face problems because of living under the
Same roof with inlaws. Specially when they have troublesome youngsters. In case of Shekhars
No matter how nice they really were, today Anandi and shiv do not have a minute of peace in
That house due to a pest called Sanchi and Ira. The same way jagia does not have a minute's peace
After Ds forced marriage on him. Older people are constantly bothering young adults with
Their ideas for their own satisfaction. So will it not be better if young adults moved out and lived separately?

Elders do not want anything bad of youngsters as they think that they are too young to handle any situation. In the same way youngsters are not always wrong but situations happen when older people consider them wrong. But slowly and gradually when elder realize that their young ones made right decision they feel happy and satisfied.

But the elders in this serial r tyrants

who use their grey hair to dominate

Jagya is finally free from bossy mother in law and dominant mother who wanted him to even use briefs of colors of their choice

and other elders like DS demand gifts back like 5 yr olds when sons make other decisions

and other elders LIE and dismiss the matters of their own as if its no big deal ...like Daddu

horrible elders , good Jagya will get relief from their kit kit

Jan regarding your question:

Same roof with in-laws. Specially when they have troublesome youngsters

It depends upon families and their adjusting nature. If a family welcomes a bahu as Lakshmi and believes if Ghar khi Lakshmi cries the family will suffer, those families treat their dil's very well.
Regarding trouble some youngsters, one's own kids can be troublesome. What do you do if you have your own troublesome teen in the house? They are also couples worst nightmares. As years pass by if every member of the family learn to understand each other and give personal space it works well.
In this serial, Shekhars were shown understanding people in the beginning. Even Singh's are really nice people who later understood their mistake and corrected themselves. Now the situation is very complex, were the ladka broke the engagement and married someone else. It is delicate situation to all concerned. I think Jagya is taking right step to be patient and convince his family why h e did what he did. It will take time. This is what I am interested to watch, how he will win his family back along with Ganga. Anandi's case at present all are very hurt and they are only seeing Sanchi. Once they cool down, they will realize what went wrong. Between now and till they all come back to their senses we have to watch unnecessary tears and misunderstandings.

I find them putting way too much pressure on children. Was it necessary for Ds to force Jagia to arry? When after what he has gone thru. He just wanted to get back the lost time and peace with the
Family. But these oldies have heir own agenda. I ate the expression " uske Ghar bas jaye tho mei
Bahuth khush hongi" as if like paying housie housie with dolls. In Shekhar's residence the menace
Called Sanchi will let no peace for any one. Why should Shiv and Anandi stay with them ?
No wonder couples dont want to stay with in laws.

Jan I had typed long post and instead of hitting post hit back button. I agree forcing Jagya to marry was not right. These are elders. They think one can be happy. After marriage they expect to see grand kids.😃 No privacy for anything. Only thing we can do is not to repeat this with our kids.😉

We cannot generalise based on situation in the serial. I have not seen even one family where people tolerate a person like Sanchi or force the son to marry sister-in-law of his ex-wife. Creatives want faltu drama, so we have to see such things. In real life - no body can be assumed as married couple just by filling the maang. Here we have agreed that J-G are married now. And even in serial elders also faced trouble due to their children be it Jagya or Sanchi.

Elders always try to control and influence child's life.

In-laws and siblings can cause problems whether they all live together or not. Even one visit or phone call is enough to poison others' ears and cause problems in their family.

Basically no one can tolerate changes or division of attention that marriage results in.

Couples should be strong enough to keep their own relationship and relationship with others separate.

DS' interference spoiled JaAn relationship (warna if she had allowed her to get educated or stay with Jagya in Mumbai like Lal Singh's wife then this much difference wouldn't have been created). She and Singhs, Gauri's own parents - all meddled a lot in Jagya-Gauri relationship (or else they were happy by themselves). Sumitra will forever keep meddling in JaGan relationship. She'll be the last person to accept them and let them live in peace. Ira and Sanchi have always interfered a lot in AnSh relationship, speculating about their intimacy issues in their drawing room! 🤢 Never realised that grown up bahu beta have a life of their own!

All are not like that in real life. But most people do get their kids married, yet can't handle relinquishing control or attention being divided.

@skelpbun: I agree with you completely. It is all about everyone knowing where to draw lines. Also, when some people in the family are beyond control , we should know to put our foot down and make them realise that we cannot be taken for granted. This is something which I have learnt over the years staying in joint family pre-marriage and now post marriage. We cannot change people. But certainly we can make sure that no body takes us for granted. We have a saying in Malayalam, only if one bends their neck, people can climb over the head and dance. It is true , whether in urban and rural circumstance.
Skelpbun, though I have always been a silent reader, commenting on few occasions, I really like your posts and strong opinions.
