Get the right message across or the complete one atleast! - Page 2

well said 👍🏼...

One has to takecare of themselves..people in society don't behave in the way we like.we have to behave or take care accordingly.no one can guard you 24/7.the message should be clear.even though zoya accepted the fact that asad was right in suspecting the guy,it late...she behaved foolish in giving them a deaf ear.what if something happened that day?only zoya is responsible..

I feel you girl! I know what you mean! I know that we have to wait for the episode to come to any conclusion but if the message is just about Zoya being hit on because she wore jeans, I am disappointed! We know that Zoya didn't have any option and she had to take a ride from that man but she shouldn't even have gone to watch Dhoni in the first place...Asad clearly told her about the strike and even the night before he told Zoya that he's not comfortable with her going by herself..I just wish they would cover the point (in their message) about not being foolish and stupid!!! I just hope that we are shown the other side too that what Zoya did was wrong! Had she listened to Asad, used her brain, she would have never landed in this problem!

Very good post Del👏.

That's true. There has to be some kind of introspection fm Zoya's side or an acceptance of her stupidity in front of her family members either before or after the slap scene. She has to realise that what she did was something that cd've been totally avoided. She is to blame first for her immaturity.

Till now they have just shown her thinking "Mr. Khan was right abt this guy" and not that "I was wrong in the first place n I shdn't have acted that way" which needs to be shown.

Can't somehow like the main post error showing up BUT DOUBLE LIKE😆I agree, Its nice that they have given a message out that girls should not be judged, and its okay for them to ask for help, which does not mean they're asking for any sort of attention. BUT they should in a way also acknowledge that just because the girl was reprimanded, it is not always right in being rebellious about it. Asad has been wrong many times and has been told off for it by the family members and herself, this time Zoya was indeed wrong, but the family has taken it lightly, it would be enough if she just realizes her fault and says it aloud to at least Asad if nothing. Even saying a sorry for not understanding his main intention will be enough.

Aw don't worry about it and thank you 😳

If the point that she was wrong comes across I will be very happy. If Gul is attempting a PSA she needs to get the right message across. As you said it's all very good to say that don't judge someone based on their clothes but its equally important to say just because you are independent doesn't mean your reckless behavior should be approved off.

THANK YOU FOR THIS!!

I actually have been really irked and pissed off with the "message" that they are trying to get across with this Rajveer thing and the issue of rape in our society. I'm waiting for tomorrow to make a full on post about this whole thing because I haven't had time to write what I want about it. But when I found out that they were trying to send out a message I got really annoyed (mainly because of the way they were doing it).

I've made a post before about Zoya's immaturity and how being independent has nothing to do with it.It's not about her being raised in New York and being independent, it's about safety especially at that time. I've been born and raised in the U.S my whole life, and lived on my own, but if I knew there were strikes going on and a certain situation wasn't safe outside, I wouldn't go. Regardless of that, I don't go alone somewhere if it's late at night (if I'm walking and don't have a car). There have been plenty of times when I've been at a friend's and it gets late, and they don't let me walk back to my apartment alone or take the metro train alone at night. Going out, we always go in groups. Even when I do have a car, if it's super late and I'm leaving a place, even if it's my cousins house, my cousin or anyone else will usually walk me out and make sure I get to my car okay. When I used to work, and we would leave super late some days (like a.m. time, everyone made sure to park in the same lot and walk out together, and if one person was parked elsewhere we would ride them to their car). Anything can happen to you anywhere, and like you said it's about ensuring your own safety. No where is really safe to be honest, and there are a lot of sick people out there. There are always going to be sick people out there, and I'm sorry but unfortunately with the way the world is out there, it is not safe for a woman to go out alone at night like that, and even more take a ride from a complete stranger in a stranded area. Be smart about the decisions you make. Zoya was the one who needed to be taught the lesson here.

Very true. Independence and responsibility go hand in hand. Wish that they would show zoya realize the gravity of her actions and admit her mistake.

I have personally gone through a similar incident many years back but fortunately the guy that gave me a lift didn't turn out to be a stalker. Nonetheless, I realized my folly only in retrospect and my behavior still gives me nightmares.

I hope that along with the current social message, they include some bits about being safety conscious. Having said that, I must admit that I am totally in favor of Zoya taking care of this mess herself and not have her knight in shining armor swoop down to save her. It makes me feel proud to see a woman stand up for herself...better late than never.
