Intimidation of a new kind

While it has left forum in the state of hysteria and has even tickled my funny bones are Rudra's ways correct or appropriate in any way?

To seduce a young woman, a babe in the woods to scare her of what a married relationship would entail where Rudra is involved, although makes for great TV viewing, does raise some questions.

I'd like to hear what you thought about Rudra's actions and Paro's response.

P.S-I'm not taking anything away, but the 2 actors were brilliant in that scene. Rudra's low soft menacingly seductive voice brought out very real reactions from Paro who lost herself for a moment in the magic he was weaving. With that kind of potent attraction how long can they stay away?
And secondly I'm glad they aren't scared to show this aspect of their relationship. Believe it or not in asli duniya the first step to love is mutual physical attraction especially where two people don't know each other that well.

As hot as it was it was wrong

Paro bhaisa a village belle is a tough person no babe in the woods as the life in that village is tough and you learn the facts of life better so maybe Rudra banna does not scare her that way as she fights back manne mat chuo and she believes he can kill her whole village if she opens her mouth and does any harm to herself. She has got her priorities right and looks like a good judge of character knows he wont harm her or go the full way without her consent. or maybe marriage ??????.

You know K ...she started it by saying " aapko kaisi ladki chahiye " now he is giving it back to her , his own way 😆

The fact that Paro chooses to MARRY him not just on paper (a relationship that would be mental, physical & emotional) though knowing too well how aggressive and ruthless he can be and now having a fair idea about her own feelings of attraction though she says otherwise... SAYS IT ALL.

Asli duniya mein bhi...it has to be a connect of (1) Body, (2) Mind & (3) Soul...

I might be going against the feminist junta here but bear with me 😛 and try to see it from the POV of Paro.

some how i kind of found her feeling disgusted more than being enticed or physically drawn even for few moments. As i see she is emotionally drained and far far away to welcome or even involuntarly feel any touchiya touchiya vibes 😕. But she did not chicken out in making it no less clear that he behaves like an animal...i mean the wrist holding...but again thats way Rudra wanted her to acknowledge and not to forget ever. Actually their relationship is taking different shades of grey. difficult to put foot down and say one is suffering and other is torturing.

A village girl like Paro may be a babe in the woods in terms of actual experience, but she was prepared for marriage to a complete stranger, and ready for everything it entailed after a sum total of two sweet conversations with him. She has now known Rudra for far longer than she knew her husband.

I don't think Rudra has ever given her the sop of this being a marriage 'in name only' ... the threat of marriage that he is holding over her head is a marriage complete in every way ... she said to Dilsher, that it will be a betrayal of her, both body and soul ... and the soul part matters to her more than body. For her to fall in love with her captor will be a bigger betrayal than giving her body to him ... because she has accepted long back that she is physically weaker. It is only her mental strength that keeps her going. She can't fight him off if he decides to get intimate ... she isn't strong enough. The only way she can hit back is by refusing to do what he wants her to do ... be it to sign the document, or to go for the jhaanki when he forbids her to do so.

Which is why Rudra's physical tactics are bound to fail, because she doesn't care about them For a village girl, marriage means subjugation to husband in every which way, including the physical, she would expect that in the marriage, and is already resigned to it.

He is using the marriage as a punishment, he wants to scare her with every aspect of it, not realising that she has accepted that part mentally. And since he is actually quite a gentleman under that rough exterior, he can't bring himself to be rough with her physically ... which is what would actually scare her much more. Besides, every time he gets rough, she ticks him off, and he feels guilty about it and gentles his hold.

What I'm trying to say is, that Rudra is trying to use physical closeness as intimidation ... but it's not working because Paro is resigned to it and accepts it will happen. For a village girl, there is no concept of marriage in name only.

I agree totally... In a village in india... Most girls don't even know their husband have never seen him.. Never talked to him.. But have slept with him.. Night after night in marriage..

MSIN,

Not sure whether you live in India or abroad. I am in India and what I see around among friends , relations, neighbourhood is very different. In cities as well as in small towns. The only place where girls are still very silent and obedient and passive are in the villages.
More and more we hear of cases where the girl calls off the engagement/wedding than the other way around
