Not even in dreams 🤢
I despise and hate flirting guys. I hate guys who just think of women as some objects of fun and think they have rights to play with every girl's heart

That's the problem with these days modern girls, i didnt think there was anything wrong with the lifestyle described by her mother, she only had simple rules for her to follow.

Rule number 1
- Cover your head to show respect for your elders..now whats wrong with that? Nothing difficult, its not rocket science...they want a decent, respectable girl not someone who would wear a miniskirt infront of their elders..rakhi agreed to that too, she didnt have a problem with that.
Rule number2
_ Veggie - well many Hindus are veggies so nothing shocking or suprising there.
The only thing i was against was perhaps not being able to work outside, being dependant on others is which i dont agree on. But that is something she can perhaps negotiate on..if the bau has to compromise so does the mother in law.
apart from that, his mother sounded very sweet...i wouldnt mind having a mother in law like her...provided the family respects and gives her the love she deserves...and provided the husband is able to support you in your good and bad times. and put a smile on your face everyday.

Imaginations are always charming but the reality is always different.
I don't know which part of world you are but seems you are not aware what problems women face who are put under so many restrictions. Only those who have lived or seen this type of life can understand this.
In these types of homes a daughter-in-law has to cover her face, does not matter how much ever high temperature is there. There wont be any power supply. All men will go out and sit in open but the daughter-in-law can not come in open. She has to be in 'purdah' (veil).
She has to do all house hold chores. She will not be allowed to use the automatic machines (like mixie). She has to grind spices daily with centuries old methods, crush it on stone, put your all force to make it fine.
She has to cook for everybody. Whoever comes at what time she has to serve him/her hot food at that time. She can take food only after each and every member of the family has been fed.
She has to get up earliest in the morning. First take bath then serve every member (especially MIL & FIL) bed tea. Prepare breakfast...
She will be the last to go to bed.
She can not take any decision on her own.
Even if she has to go market she has to take permission from her MIL,FIL and husband...

The list is endless.
Sorry to say, but its still happening in many small-towns (even in big cities) like Rishikesh.

What do you think Manmohan is serious about Rakhie. For these people the bold woman like Rakhie is a fun-object and he has come only for his own aspirations.

From UK....
I think thats the lifestyle many villagers have to live and Rakhi is obviously a celebrity. Her mother in law should understand that....in families both parties have to sacrifice, The mother in law and the daughter both have to compromise to some extent. I believe if the family is willing to give you love and respect than i dont think their should be a problem adjusting a little here and little there.
I cant judge Manmoham right now...my heart says one thing and my mind another, i really liked the guy...infact i wanted a guy like that myself...but just watch and wait whats true and whats not...Anjali he admitted to be only his friend, only his heart knows the truth...besides Mahmohan is a strong contestant, you would always have people trying to bring him down and jealousy arousing from everywhere.

Did you notice the fellow did not even once said that we'll also try to change for you. Or, you will be given liberty what you want to do. Neither he or his mother. Instead he was laughing when she was asking the doubts.

Yes, you are right adjustments have to be from both the sides. But unfortunately its still a dream for many DILs in India. They have to change themselves fully. You may not believe it but its a fact.

Did you notice, his mother said if you will do 'all theses things' then only you can be my DIL. Even Manmohan used double-meaning words. He said, i swear my mother 'if i marry you' i will be there with you throughout your life.
You are from UK thats why you dont understand what he exactly says in Hindi. He always uses pure Hindi, even Rakhie is not able to understand what he says.

I am from North India and Hindi is my mother-tongue. I can get the soul of it. Right from the beginning it was clear he is making fun of Rakhie. I am telling on the basis of words he used to use.

My advice to all you girls here - NEVER change yourself for your husband or your mother in law. NEVER do this! If the way that they live is not what you are used to, there MUST be compromise on BOTH sides.
Or else 10 years down the road after you have changed so much about yourself, you will forget who you really are.
I respect how everyone lives, but knowing what I know now, I would NEVER put myself in a situation like this ...
PLEASE always stay true to yourselves, and compromise only as long as the other parties compromise. Or if you can live on your own just you and your husband and children, do that ...
That's the only advice I can give ...
