Zee is to be blamed primarily for scriptin all this nonsense and airing it and junta janardhan lapping it up giving more TRP to the program and then turning around and crying not fair, poor Sumedha etc. HR I guess is just sticking to a script given to him, even though it is not pleasant and he goes overboard. Sumedha does make it obvious is not very happy with it with her facial expressions. I wish her parents would speak up for her to the channel. All in all audience, zee, HR, and I guess to some extent Sumedha's parents for not taking a stance are all to be blamed becos each has his own reason to put up with it 😳

The show is totally male dominated. We need the balance. We know when women are involved the atmostphere changes, men will have to behave.

What about people watching. It makes me very uncomfortable beside it is very bad role model for younger girls and boys. It teaches boys they can bully and girls they have to put up with bullying.

IT really pains me to see such comments. So many people around the world felt that HR went too far.You mean to say they are all wrong?Just have a look at the petition and you will know.So unless the victim speaks out against it, it stays right , is it...?what about ones own perception of right or wrong?

So, as human beings don't we have any responsibility torwards the society now , is it. God forbid,if tomorrow the situation was reversed and one of your own family member was standing in the place where Sumedha is standing now,would you still have voiced the same thoughts?

My advice is please don't worry about comments that put the onus on the victim, when there are so many viewers who understand that it is the harrasser's actions that are the problem. Our outrage over HR's love story shenanigans is not a question of whether or not Sumedha wants this attention. I'm sure she's a quite capable young lady who can take care of losers in her everyday life when they don't take no for an answer. I have no reason to doubt it, anyway.

But, this is different. HR has put Sumedha on the spot in a professional context. Either she takes a stand against all this by forfeiting the contest or she bears it all silently.
