Okay first of all Ahem did slap her one time, and was very rude in the beginning of their marriage. But I wouldn't call him abusive as in domestic violent type abuse. As I said I am not justifying his behavior, but you have to look it at from his point of view also. He was brought up by a very tough mom, he always did as his mom told him, so he sacrificed the girl he loved so much for his mom. Then he comes to know that Gopi is uneducated, and he is even more guilty for hurting the girl he love. He couldn't fight his mom so he took all his anger out on Gopi, again he was not right in doing this, but he was never violent with her, he was cold and indifferent and couldn't stand the site of her, but like I said he was made to believe she is a uneducated gold digger, who didn't know anything but kitchen work. If you watch from begging you will understand him.

You are comparing oranges to Apples by comparing domestic violence with Ahem's arrogant, rude and insulting behavior. It is not the same thing.

As I said watch from the beginning and you will understand both Ahem and Gopi's side along with other characters of the show.

I am not saying an wife beater should be forgiven, never, but in this case Ahem is not a wife beater.

very great answer Shilpa ben...i agree with u completely

Umm let me think.

The show is portraying a real love story...No flying duapttas...No people tripping over each other while walking on a perfectly plane surface, No unnecessary eyelocks that happen for no apparent reason.

This show is as real life like as any show can possibly get. There is a reason for everything.

The characters develop like humans, they grow, you will never see any character's behavior go around in circles. They relationships move as they do in real life. No concept of love at first sight(which never happens in real life) The pace is right. The mood is right.

there are many other reasons but I think these alone prove my point.

Not bashing other shows...but I honestly can't sit through the forced romance..i just can't.

i agree to you, and ABUSE in a marriage cant be normal and acceptable. But the serieals are not always aboupt what should be happened. it may be about what can be happened. Cvs jvst show the result of marriage without willingness of both person.and marriage by hiding any truth.

This is the best answer. I agree with you there is a huge difference between an abusive husband and an arrogant husband. Ahem does not fall in the first category. Also the story is about how a simple girl like Gopi can bring an arrogant man like Ahem down to his knees in love with her. And of course the relationship between the saas bahu. No one liked Ahem's behavior. We all wanted him to also be punished. But he has come around. He was taking care of his wife when she needed him the most. Including carrying her when needed. If Ahem had fallen in the first category he would never have cared if his wife lived or died.

Every show has a main lead who is bad.

In Man Ki Awaaz Krishna was a goon he abducted his wife and then changed later.

IPKKND has arnav who is the main lead who is very arrogant and rude but is changing.

SNS is successful because people like the story. They like the acting and hard work put in the show by everyone. People like Gopi's innocence Ahem and Gopi's chemistry. Kokila's character is also superbly potrayed.

this is the best answer shilpa. sns is about family bonding and not about individuals. yes in the begining aham was arrongant. but he was not abusive. each person has their own principle. i personally dont like a certian famous writer because his font size is too small. this might seem childish. but it is my personal point of view. so is aham. he does not like an illerate wife. how do you expect a man like aham accept gopi. though she had all the good qualities, he did not have time to understand her. once he understood he started the process of respecting her.
as for gopi. i dont know, but somewhere i have done an analyses why gopi cant leave this marriage and aham. in indian society the stigma of a seperated women is huge than an unmarried women. gopi has no one to support. though we read ff os ss on gopi leaving home and getting help from stangers, it is not possible in reality. instead of faceing worse abuse outside, she had stayed at home. the core line of sns is love can change anything. gopi's love changed kokila, it has changed aham and in future surely it will change rashi.

Excellent response. 👏👏👏 You have to make a distinction between systematic abuse, truly dysfunctional relationships as against normal human bad behaviour. Ahem was nasty but he's not an abuser.

Paradigm, you said you wanted to understand - but I'm not sure it is possible if you approach Indian TV soaps entrenched in a feminist stand, one, moreover, that has a set expectations of how role models in the 'modern' world should behave.

Most soaps are targetted at women, and are ultimately devoted to fighting their cause - in the home, in a marriage, in society, in relationships. But they do it slowly, over a long arc and so imperceptibly that it can seem frustrating - particularly if you want quick action, dramatic stances and political posturing.

In soaps that's not the way it is done - you have to watch carefully if you really want to understand Gopi's power. And no doubt about it, she is a very influential person in the Modi household as well as in the homes that watch Saathiya. They DO see her as a heroine - not a powerless, feckless loser.
