disclaimer: no intention to spark any war, just to voice my opinion.
Hello all. Though i am not a fan of saath nibhana saathiya, but just couldn't hold myself after watching the promo and SBS. so first of all, CVs r showing, meera's cheerharan!! It would've been a news, right!! Actually the story was going good, i liked it, but when i saw today's promo, i couldn't control myself to post it. Do they know the meaning of cheerharan?? With whom this dreadful incident happened?? What was the incidents and situations?? How DREADFUL was this incident!!! Those who wrote the scripts, do they know this history?? NO!! They don't know it!! Today's generation actually my generation, only knows name of mahabharat, cheerharan, arjun ect. Do they know the actual significance of cheerharan?? You all must be thinking, why i'm acting like an angry young girl, well, because i know the epic!! I know mahabharat, i know cheerharan!!! What were the cause, what were the situations, what were the significance of them!!! What we kalyugis r thinking!! To distort our history in our own way and cut paste them in our fictions!!!! Cheerharan was a tragic in our history!! Can we compare kurukshetra with the ongoing verbal war between the families!!! No! We hv no right to compare them with our family!!! It is said, har ghar mein mahabharat hota hai, but do we war with nuclear weapons?? do we?? No!! It signify wars between the brothers, with our own blood!! And in this family war, what was the cause to drag our history here and insult it!!! Do they know, what actually happened in cheerharan?? what that person felt, when she was DRAGGED!!! in front of ELDERS!!! she was insulted only for STAKING HER!!! she was STAKED!!!Her INDEPENDENCE was insulted!!! Her VIRGINITY was INSULTED!!! she was insulted by FOUL WORDS!!! Bitter than any cheerharan!!
was it only a rape case?? or only taking out clothes!!! NO!! Then how can this cheerharan of saathiya be compared!!! Calling it cheerharan or vastraharan or comparing it with vastraharan will be an insult! This is an complete insult to the epic to drag it in family matters!!! Totally unexpected!! And a woman taking out a women's cloth!!!! What is all this rubbish going on now!! They don't hv any right to drag any history in Fiction!!!!

I do agree with you, even I was offended. Though, I do think you need to calm down because the overall message is there.
I don't have a problem with them doing this cus it's not like they're mocking it or taking away from the scene, they aren't trying to destroy it IMO.
But the thing I hate is how they want to make Guara hateful by making her sacrifice goats, plot murders, and now this. They're taking it too far. That's the problem and not because she's a female who's doing this. Cus in reality, female and male are both capable of stooping so low. But I agree with you, the cvs should treat this with sensitivity and not use it as something to increase the trps.

Women are their worst enemies but have not seen any woman removing the clothes of another like this.

It is worse than Urmila burning Kinjal's sarees. This is a limit.

i'm not going to say what i really want to say, but i will say that because the mahabharata is also an epic that has real cultural weight, even if you take out any religious implications, that imagery is a easy, if not too clever, shorthand to convey "evil."

it doesn't take away from the importance the mahabharata has for other modern narratives to reference it and shows like saathiya (however lowbrow) will continue to draw from epic literature because that's something powerful, because the story is powerful, and because the metaphor works.

last, it's ridiculous to assume women don't do awful stuff like this, because they do, because women are human, when it comes down to it.

(meera is no draupadi though; i kept thinking it would've made more sense, narrative-wise, for it to happen to vidya, but whatever.)
