I am just amazed at the forum. There are so many posts rejoicing that Kumud's husband is
so evil. They are clapping their hands and blaming her.

But what was her fault?

She gave up on her love and agreed to do what her parents wanted.
She agreed to a marriage arranged by her parents. She agreed to put her past behind and do what her parents, society expected her to do.

She thought her father had checked out the boy, she assumed her father knew
the boy and had even spoken to the neighbours and other villagers about the boy.
She did not know that her father just relied on the boy's father's position and power.

How many girls in India suffer the same fate.

There are thousands and thousands, no millions of women who suffer the same fate as her.
They get married only to be rejected by their husbands.
They marry only to be abused.

Domestic Violence in India happens behind closed doors.
And the woman cannot speak.

She cannot speak as no one wants to know.
Men of her new household will not support her.
And even the women in her new house will not support her.

Why even the forum members are saying she deserves ill treatment by her husband.

That poor girl is shocked.
She did not expect this.

How many women in India have faced this same situation, from ages ago to even current modern times.Things in this regard have not changed much.

So my female forum members where is your sympathy for your own kind.
I hope the social message will be just another message that needs to go out.
So much education is needed in this area before there will be a change in society.

Your comments please.

so true.
even i felt VC knew pramad and his family well before agreeing for wedding buttt
kumud is trapped now because of one hasty "Yes" to marry anyone to save her family's respect
To be honest about Pramad i think he is in same situation as kumud forced into an unwanted relationship by family so he is just removing that anger on kumud
Both are in same boat forced to marry by family because of circumstances

Agree with you. Many Kumud's in India, my sister is one for that matter with an alcoholic hubby. No one knew about it before marriage.

Most folks on the forum are from abroad I suppose.

Much needed post. I fail to understand why so many people are excited for Kumud's husband to abuse her, and that she deserves it for not waiting for Saras. Why should she wait for a man who dumped her 2 days before their wedding? And to the people saying she cheated Pramad by not informing him of her relationship with Saras - I'm sure Pramad would have known that she was going to marry someone else. Whatever mistakes she made aren't big enough for her to actually deserve an abusive marriage - NO ONE deserves that!

Thank god for this post
Much appreciated TM

Tbh I never found a fault in kumud in this whole situation
I mean when saras called and rejected her 2 days before the wedding??!!!

Like that's disgraceful and yet many forum members blamed kumud
Erm ... It was saras who rrejected her Again due to his own insecurities
Yet kumud was majority blamed
I was so confused of the response from forum members
I thought I was the only one that could clearly see that kumid wasn't at fault!

Saras broke her trust and she didn't have trust in herself anymore so she blindly trusted the people that care about her the most - her parents

Many girls including me would do.that
If my lover deceived me last minute of the wedding and left me stranded and left my family stranded despite all the finance and guest invitations and wedding dress and luggages packed omg... I wouldn't know what I do

I would silently and blindly do what my parents will tell me to do
Which is exactly what kumud did!

And bdw I am from UK and have been born here and I have this mentality and I'm.sure many many girls would have same response if put in such situation.

We should wait and see what exactly happens in the show.

Kumud's character is not one that will tolerate abuse. In any case of DV, there is one element of the abuser, and another of the receiver. If the victim is in a position to object from day 1, that is a different scenario. Let us see what sort of message SLB sends out.

As for rejoicing about Pramad being a negative character, you have to look into the factors.

One, we were worried if he turned out to be a good guy, he may do an Ajay D role, therefore no Samud in the end.

Two, we were revolted at the thought of a normal husband who would expect to have normal relations with his wife. And are happy Kumud doesnt have to face this situation.

Your observation that people are celebrating the fact she is going to be abused seems odd. I havent seen every thread on here, but would be shocked if someone actually said that!!

Cheers.

To add to point #2, kumud has given her mind, body and soul to saras...she still has feelings for saras...and she is not mentally ready...it would been so much agony for kumud if pramad had wanted physical relations with her from day one...

People are not rejoicing at the abuse...on the contrary people are angry at the treatment which is being meted out to kumud and fully on her side...people are relieved that in all this mess, at least kumud has been spared the horror of being forced to sleep with someone, especially when she is in such an emotionally fragile state...

@Topic maker, you are completely misinterpreting the reaction in the forum. People are relieved that Pramad is a negative character because that means that Kumud can go back to Saras. If Pramad had been a good guy, it would have meant the end of Samud love story.
Somebody else commented it was because "most forum members were from abroad"!!! I found that comment offensive. What exactly is that supposed to mean? That women abroad support domestic abuse?? I live in the US but I would never support any form of abuse on anyone.

Very well said!!
Its true that Kumud took an impulsive decision of marrying without thinking things through. And it would be true that since she and Pramad never discussed anything before the wedding, there was bound to be some hiccups, etc in their relationship. But that doesn't mean Kumud deserves to settle for an abusive husband. Even a Pramad disinterested in the marriage is ok since that is Kumud's state of mind now... but an abusive husband - No!
