No offence nach baliye, but I think you're totally missing the point. Domestic violence, seriously?? Do you honestly think this is that extreme an issue??!! Wow, I don't even know what to say to such a reaction...:S
Are we even watching the same show!!
I don't get it. I simply don't get how you can even equate that slap to domestic violence and all....Seriously no offence but extreme much??
Like Anu above said, jeez what do you want from Radha bua? She frickin' apologized and felt regret. She so lovingly told Suhana to not leave. She felt remorse in today's episode as well. Do you not think that her genuine words and remorse counts for anything? You honestly think she should be PUNISHED for something like this?
What about all the times Radha bua has shown affection towards Suhana? Last time I checked, Radha bua does most of Suhana's work like fold her clothes etc. for her. She cooks her food, her favourite dishes from time to time. All that...so by your logic, she should also get AWARDED for all those gestures no?
You don't PUNISH/ AWARD your family dude! I'm sorry but I do not understand your reaction to this situation at all!
I think the fact that Radha bua feels bad and she let's Suhana know that she wants her to stay means alot. The fact that she CARES means alot.
I honestly don't think we're watching the same show dude.
Dude, clearly we are watching different shows and have different sets of values. So what if RB cooks good food for Suhana? Does that give her a right to slap? I don't think so, dude. Suhana is irresponsible towards the family and insensitive to their feelings, but that is not the situation here - the situation is that Suhana was slapped and she did not even do anything wrong. You are connecting two totally separate situations - RB deserves to be rewarded for cooking for Suhana, I guess, or Suhana should give something back. But again, the slapping incident has nothing to do with RB's cooking or being rewarded for the same.
Regarding soap operas and the general acceptance of slapping, the thing is, I don't watch these crappy soaps. I cannot stand saas-bahu type typical serials where people are free to slap and insult and family members die and return, remarry, and try to trip each other at every step. I don't want any of these shows - I do watch Pratigya and SGP.
Technically, slapping is domestic violence any which way you see it or interpret it. It is technically domestic violence - regardless of whether the one slapping is a man or a woman. In Suhana's case, it was not just the violent action - it was the humiliation and "crowd" mentality where no elder stood up for her and kept telling her to forget it. After that, whatever RB did, to me, seemed fake. First she cries and blames Suhana for provoking her. Then she persuades Suhana to stay (mind you, she does not say sorry). Then she goes to Badi maa and tries to be a martyr saying that Suhana has a greater right over the house and that she (RB) should leave. Does she not know from the 20 years she has spent with them that they will stop her and tell her that it is wrong of her to think that way? Yet she plays the martyr? RB had good intentions, but it cannot be denied that she is a very selfish woman, who was taken in by a family she was not related to and yet cannot even love her own son. Honestly, the scene where she tells Badi maa no need to give Deepak new clothes, and seeing tears in Deepak's eyes broke my heart -- it really did. And RB could not even feel that much?
I would say, put yourself in Suhana's shoes. If you are married, think how you would feel in her situation if someone in your in-laws' family slaps you in front of everyone and your hubby behaves like a coward. RB's state of mind does not matter - so what if she regretted and apologized? Suhana still forgave her very easily and it was irresponsible on other elders part to not say anything to RB. You can care as much as you want, but if you slap someone clearly you don't care and your words are just that - words.
