actually dads sisters son will be called as mama ki beta or something. which is acceptable to get married. yes in English we call everyone as cousin. but as a relation is concerned brother and sisters children wont be brother and sis. i dont know in north india. but here in south india own brother and sis children can marry. it is like mama ki beta. mami ki beti. in many hindi films also they have showed that i think.

so if mayank used to be rachana;s dads sisters's son he was not like brother to rachana. but as Gunjan is rachana's sisters daughter. Gunjan can get married to Mayank.

but here it is direct brother and sis relation. god knows what Cv's are doing.

I live in New York but my family is orginialy from india, a typical Indian-Hindu-Rajput family. Since we're Hindu's in our religion we cant marry our cousins because it's considered wrong and we consider our cousins brothers and sisters, however from what i know marrying ur cousin's cousin is considered okay. Because if u think of it this way that for example lets say my cousin is my dad's sister's daughter, however i don't have anything to do with my cousin's father's brother's son...You get what i mean?..How r we related to them?..We're not the same blood..we dont even know eachother. i will only be related to my cousin becuase of the relationship my dad and her mom would share..I know it sounds a bit confusing Lol but i hope ur getting wat i mean. And i actually have a personal experience like this. My dad's sister's son got married to my mom's sister's daughter. I was the one related to both but they werent...so this happens..it's quite normal

In your case its ur bua( your dad's sister) son. who actually wont be ur brother. If she has a daughter even You can marry her daughter. this this is taken normally. so in this case your bua's son is wont be your brother.

Yours Maasi (Your mom's sister) daughter will be your sister. so You can get her married to your bua's Son.

We call every one as Cousin In English. chachi, maasi, bua every one are called aunt so its getting confused. but these relations are actually differ. They have their own binderies.

Who will be your brother or sis in cousins:

Your Dad's all bothers children = these will be your brother or sister

Your Mothers all sisters children = these will be your brother or sister

Who wont be your brother or sis in cousins (whom even you can marry or they can marry your sibling):

Your dad's all sisters children = these wont be your brother or sisters

Your Mothers all brothers children = these wont be your brother or sister.

In Your case :

Your Dad's sister(bua) son = who is not considered as your brother

Your mother's sister's(maasi) daughter = Yes she is your sister

1) You -> your maasis daughter

2) Your bua's son

there is no connection between 1 and 2 so this marriage is acceptable

Now about the issue in the serial is:

Mayank = Rachana's Dads brother's son ( who is exactly brother to rachana)

Gunjan = Rachana's mother's sister's daughter ( who is directly sister to Rachana)

1) Mayank-> Rachana -> Gunjan

So in this all these 3 became brother and sisters. so Gunjan will be sister to Mayank. so it is not done.

I hope i did not write too much 😊

I don't see what the problem is, to be honest.

Mayank is Dayal's brother's son. He's not a part of Shayl's bloodline at all. So he and Gunjan should be able to get together without any issues! It's not like Gunjan sees him as a brother at all anyway.

Of course, he's being a dick right now so if I were her I would probably behave the same way, to be honest. But of course the story will change with time!
