Hi frndz,
The common perception is that Pratz is a strong lady who never yields to injustice. This makes some people to view her as a role model. I wouldn't view her as a role model, she has some good qualities, but i can't imagine any woman trying to be like her. But sadly I hv drawn an altogether different conclusion from the show. Sample this:
1. When Krishna asked her not to work in the office so as to earn money, she simply surrendered and did not even protest. In comparison, when Tanmay forced Arushi to abandon job, she refused to give in to his unjust demand. Here, Arushi emerges as the leading lady and a better icon of women liberalism. Arushi knows Tanmay's being a spiteful, possessive git, he knows they need the money her job brings in, plus she has papa's/dadi's support. Pratigya doesn't actually need to work, i think even in the 1st epi she told her friends she's probably end up being a housewife, she was determined for Krishna to have a job, so he wouldn't be dependent on his family.
But if Arushi's appearing to be stronger, why is she putting up with all the crap Tanmay's dishing out, what with the deeds to GH, etc?
2. Pratz has been staying at TN for past 5 years and has seen thakurs commmitting all sort of crimes. Although she protested against such practices on certain occasions but she has never been able to secure justice being delivered to her criminal in-laws. In terms of output, she has been a huge failure. Here, the cvs keep getting the thakurs off the hook cos they're a vital part of mkap, one day, hopefully they'll pay for their deeds. Her success at the TN has mainly been making sure samar doesn't turn out to be a junior KN.
3. Despite having so many troubles in her own life, she has constantly been intruding into others' territories. Like she interfered in Arushi's personal life by stopping her marriage to Aman. Infact, it was this foolishly handled move that ended up in Arushi marrying KN. Arushi was justified in turning hostile b'coz Pratz failed to produce any conclusive proof of Aman's cheating, in time.
So she should have let Arushi marry Aman? Arushi at that time only saw a jealous older sister, not a sibling who was trying to avert a disaster, so she created another one for herself, and encouraged the thakurs in taunting KP. It's the same Arushi who now confides in P about her marital problems, why did she phone P when Tanmay slapped her, why didn't she give as good as she got? On the same note, both sisters are shown to be good at advising each other, but hopeless when it comes to their own problems.
4. As a wife, she has been unsuccessful in giving quality time to her hubby. I wud never recommend any wife to follow in her footsteps. It's cos she hasn't got a job that she stays at home to look after samar and be there for K, they seem to have enough quality time. I would say that the way they should P declaring she wouldn't have any kids of her own without consulting K was a big no no for everyone, he agreed at that point, but that's something no woman would do.
All this only proves that Pratz is not behaving as one wud expect from a lead of women-centric show.
