For a serial that shows Indian culture , performing thirteenth day rites or annual shraadha ceremony for a person whom they know is very much alive is not only wrong but unforgivable according to Hindu scriptures and Bhabho , who is characterized as a level headed senior person who knows all these things simply cannot take such a decision of violating religious laws for the sake of personal anger . There r many convicts in jails who have committed far heinous crimes , yet their families dont do their shraadha when they r alive . There is a reason for this...........religion doesnt permit it . The earthly body has to go completely before these rites r commenced ..........personal emotion plays no role in this . One can tell verbally in a fit of anger that ur dead for me , but on cannot do funeral rites this way , it is regarded as religious offence . In Kasam Se they had shown the Maasi breaking a pot of water and bathing in Jai's name even as he was alive in a fit of anger , now they r showing Bhbho doing this openly ............when Saloni's parents r there , she will be ostracised on a religious level . This same Bhabho who had given Laali maasi a fitting answer when she told about age old customs of barren women affecting the child ........that their kuldevta wud take care of that , had shown indian culture in a positive light . Anger or no anger , creatives , dont make a mockery of our culture as these rites have very serious significance . These mantras are not said for souls in an alive body , only for souls who have left the body ..............each mantra has special scientific effect . Dont show this thing even for drama . Death is in Gods hands , no human can violate his wish and use God's mantras wrongly . Whether Bhabho's anger is justified or not is purely matter of opinion , but this thing that they r showing is downright wrong .
Btw no pundit in the world who honestly fears God will do this .........he wont have the himmat to utter these mantras for a living person as he will incur grave sin .
