Thanks to all for the Input... 😊
Article definately points some great issues in Media... The Portion I liked most is The Example of 2 Women... One from some village of Rajasthan.. and one from some village of Gujarat... πŸ‘ I had never read about these 2 ladies anywhere [considering I am very much into reading news & articles n all stuff... πŸ˜‰] and when I read that It made me appreciate these Ladies... πŸ‘ and I thot to share it with you all... 😊
Today... We have many major Indian TV serials based on Rajasthan and Gujarat [There are based on other regions too... 😊] and they are popular... 3-4 of them are ruling the TRP game... πŸ˜• Every other new TV serials is based on some region and my observation say... they r mainly focused on Rajasthan n Gujarat... (AGREE WITH SHEEMA DI here... πŸ˜ƒ) May be these are the states where ppl sticks to TV 7-11πŸ˜• [again it's just a observation... ]
But what are the contents for these TRP rulers is Saas torturing Bahu... Bahu ne Puja ki thali nahi sajai... is a matter of Death n Live... πŸ€“ πŸ‘ŽπŸΌ which makes me go YUCKKK 🀒 and WHATTT😑😑😑😑
There are ppl out there not even getting food to eat... there are ppl out there... doesn't have roof to stay... πŸ˜” there r girls out there... who got kidnapped everyday... πŸ˜”πŸ˜” there so many issues that India dealing Everyday... There are Thousands of ppl fighting for Life everyday... πŸ˜”
BUT what matters for these producers is... POOJA ki Thali... 🀒😑😑😑 $%#@*&%😑
There are these 2 ladies also... (mentioned in Article... ) from Rajasthan and Gujarat... Show them... take their example and Present the real Woman of these states rather than just crap... πŸ₯±
Can't they be even a bit realistic and show some issues which ppl daily deals with... coz Electronic Media reaches to Millions of the ppl... and why can't you be little close to reality and Give a Message to Masses which might not affect or change everyone... but might can change lives of some.. ?? [I think I will never get an answer... πŸ˜†]

i want 2 say sumthin about SGP. the article is about working girls in india & there r 2 career women in SGP, panna & disha,rajni is a homemaker but she does almost all work in the house.hw many SGP viewers r interested in them?
i love the way panna maintains her in laws, husband & job.love disha when she helps rajni just after came 4m school.we overlook them cause they r not the leads.female leads should be either too dumb or too loud.
ppl r not interested in normal characters.

Some very good points... and I have been thinking about these since Acting Track has started... πŸ˜ƒ
I am a Fan of Rajni since I watch SGP... I like her character... πŸ˜ƒ Like Me n Nets has mentioned this many times already... πŸ˜‰πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†
and Today also I agree 200% with You Mtanwy and Netri... 😊
I see my Mom in Rajni... I have also lived in joint family... and As Netri mentioned... Starting from Boiling Milk and Making Tea in the Morning... Till The Last Glass of Milk in the Night... I had never imagined... how much hard work n Strength my Mom put in everyday's Chores... for like almost 10 ppl in the house... πŸ₯± that to considering everyon'e choice n timings... πŸ‘πŸ‘ Since, the day I have realized... I always Give her Example to anyone n everyone I talk about Moms... I always tell my younger Sister-in-Law to appreciate my MIL as You will miss her very badly once you leave her... and you will understand her Importance once you go away from her... πŸ˜ƒ
I see myself in Disha... 😊 After reaching home... while you are in Bus... the things we normal working women are thinking is... What to cook today... πŸ˜•πŸ˜‰πŸ˜†πŸ˜† When Weekend is approaching... what you think is cleaning... πŸ˜• dusting... Shopping...πŸ₯± nothing else... πŸ˜‰πŸ˜†
I had never imagined... that handling Home along with work wud be this much difficult...
How I wonder... Rajni n Disha never gets an appreciation but Suhana always does... She cooked Breakfast once... and everyone appluaded... then what About Rajni-Disha... They do it everyday... but alas... the Lead Scenario... πŸ₯±
@Shilu Di -- I so much liked what you say... Almost every other housewife go unnoticed... πŸ˜• and that's reality... According to me... Children can always makes Mom happy by recognizing their work n Appreciating that We care... We Values you... My Mom once told me... When I get Love n Appreciation from you... I forget everything... my efforts n Pain in a minute... and it makes me so happy that my Daughter values for the Input I had given for so many years... and I get strength again... πŸ˜ƒ
Anyways... too muchhh of my babkbaking... Thanks Evryone for reading and Putting your Points... πŸ˜ƒ

@netri & sachi16,exactly my points.
i also see my mom in rajni...in fact my mom has to do all inside & outside works as i don't have my dad. i am not married & trust me i am very afraid hw will i manage my carrier & home after my marriage.my mom is the reason for liking panna ,disha & rajni.these 3 characters r really exist.
NOW I WANT TO SAY SUMTHIN ABOUT SUHANA, NO OFFENSE TO ANYBODY.THIS IS COMPLETELY MY OPINION. READ IT AT YOUR OWN RISK.
suhana is doin a character of bechari bahu. what kind of bahu she is?in other serials bahus r bechari cause of their MIL & in SGP suhana IS making rajni & disha bechari.in khushi track just imagine suhana in dishas place.what would everyone say? bechari suhana!! she cant be a mother & hw cruel her SIL is.but suhana is the lead character so she can do everything.i used 2 like suhana but after khushi track i wish i can kill her.but hw can i kill a fictional character!!!πŸ˜†
in my opinion there is no difference between the SNS character kokila & suhana.

@ Shalu Di ,
I knw how U must feel !!!! At time , I feel so overwhelmed with both home & outside work !!!!! I wouldn't mind meeting my Doppelganger or a Robot who does half or some of those things for me !!!!!! My dad raised me in a way that I m self sufficient unlike some Women I have met here in USA who happens to b Bechari Naris from India ... πŸ˜†

@ mtanwy ,
I agree with ur POV . When Rajni - Disha were mad at Suhana during party , In a way there was a chance for her to learn anything . What happen !!!! Suhana has saaf heart . Then During khushi track , I m too not happy abt how suhana was Obsessed abt Khushi only .

Some thinks , Ishan has put his friend [ Sona ] before his wife, Well , Who his wife puts before her Husband ? Suhana has always chose others over Ishan . Have V ever saw any of the other SGP women does this ? If U r not that important in ur wife's life then U too can put a friend in need before ur wife .

What Rajni - Disha - Panna goes unnoticed as it goes in real life . What bugs me more as knowingly or unknowingly Kashyaps making difference in their bahus . Which time & again going to surface . Has BM , Rano or RB has ever told Suhana what she has to do as DIL of the house . Even If they tell her , She is going to understand it ? NO , She is her own person. She is living there as not DIL but as a Daughter . Somewhere Suhana has forgotten she is DIL . So has BM , BM is not her mother but her MIL . Until those 2 realize their place Nothing will change .

My personal story , Both set of parents visited us while back . I had spend previous night talking to my Brother & his family. Next morning My MIL made TEA & Breakfast . Later My Dad told me , He didn't like this as First I m DIL of the house [ never forget that ] second I should wake up early & help my MIL . He also said U r lucky to have them as they treat U as a Daughter but It doesn't mean U abandon ur responsibilities . Even if Its ust one day . Never make a habit of it . He was right in his assessment .

While I agree with U fully . I know getting angry at Suhana is fruitless , she will never change or learn anything in life. So V can cherish the scenes [ Even if they r for 2 minutes ] & ignore the 20 minutes one . But Kashyaps do represents bad image now a days by choosing one DIL over others .

@Netri, @mtanwy -- Agree with you some very good points... 😊
@Nets -- about the difference... while watching January's left out Epis... [I missed those as was busy in all hospital stuff ]
During the Salim Play Track... πŸ˜ƒ
In one Scene, when Elders of the Kashyaps... finds out that Rajni -Disha were rehersing with their Husbands in their room... after when they came to hall... Radha Bua scolded Inder-Ilesh and shouted @ R & D... "tum dono bhi shamil ho gai is nautanki me... Sham hone ko aai... aaj khana nahi banana hai kya... Jao chalo kitchen me... warna aaj hum khayenge kya... " and hearing this both R & D ran to Kitchen... I wondered... if this only applies to R & D... and not to their Younger Bahu... coz they have never ever called for help even... She is all free to ream around in the house... πŸ˜•πŸ˜•[and trust me RB literely shouted on R & D... she was kinda serious... no joking😊]
@Biba & @jshree-ram -- Thanks for liking our almost all Posts... You 2 are silent members... but I see you guys most of the time.. chupke chupke liking the comments... πŸ˜‰πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†

@ Sachi16 ,

U caught me ☺️ I am lazy writer .

They are all partial to Suhana & one of these days , Its gonna blow up again . How l;ong BM can save her Daughter .

I have never liked Shouting Queen Suhana EVER !!!!! I would have slap her or atleast told her the rules - regulations . I can't tolerate people like Suhana at all times . It s My POV . I have met some brats like her in past & she is a fake person .

Scene U mentioned , U r right abt that . Also during I-Kashayp letter thing . Even BM told them to go cook Dinner as It was late & They didn't made it yet . What can We say , as long as Janata is in love with Suhana's childish behavior nothing will change .

Talk abt other serials Mockery , Atleast those Bechari Bahus Does house hold work & help others . They too can make mockery of Some Childish Behavior Bahu ( not FAN of those serials )

I m just tired today & had a sort of bad day . But Not happy with Suhana at all times now . I am kinda wishing If Ishan & Other give their piece of their mind to BM - Suhana .


Regarding to title of the thread , " WHEN ART DOESN'T IMITATE LIFE "

1 ) We have a Bahu like Suhana who doesn't do anything but people love her .

2 ) Bahus like Panna - Rajni - Disha goes unnoticed .

3 ) Everything BM does is app-laudable . [ For me most of the time , not all ]

4 ) Rano even though she cries a lot , doesn't have strength make decision , she accepts & lets BM make all the decisions regarding her Son & DIL .
The way many people give contributions in Yagna ... Rano has been a silent devotee to BM . Her contribution f silence & accept BM's each word , decision with smile [ Only once We saw her opposing ] is admirable .

5 ) Dadi , is the most REAL mother I have seen . [ Minus the Mumtaz bit ] She is a mother , wife , MIL . she has gave us strength , weakness of her character . Mothers forgive their Babies No matter what . I love that bit of reality during BP Track . Heartache of Mother was portrayed by her very well . She resembles Everyday Mothers , MILs , our own mother has turned blind eye to many of our actions .

6 ) Panna , is mirror image of her mother . She had to go through so much in life . So many heartache to live . Both her & RB . I salute both these women for their strength .

7 ) Disha , wanted more than anything in life is to b a mother . Yet what became important is Suhana wanting the child . I hated Suhana for that . Let it b abt someone else other than Suhana for once . If Suhana had help Disha in getting close to baby r something than I would have lilked her . But No Suhana is always right even though she is interfering with someone else's life & happiness .

8 ) None of these WOMEN matter even though they represent someone We know , our Mothers , sisters , in Laws but only person matter for Janata is LEAD !!!!!!!!!

Lastly , I don't like Suhana's character & lately she has made me dislike BM too . [ MY POV entirely ]

Who tells their husband , that If not fr BM she would have divorce their Husband , ...

Oopsee Daisy !!!! I am a Suhana Fan ... Not embarrassed about it , but at the same time I accept that she has numerous flaws in her personality. Yes there were chances after chances for her to improve but she didn't , but I would not put entire blame on her. People around her made her feel like a queen , so she is behaving like one, all her life she got what she wanted, never felt the need to see from the other's perspective ,she has indeed a clear heart and in her thinking a clear conscious too. I would put some blame on her father, her husband and all her MILs and especially BM , she supports her for every silly thing, which she would not support Panna to do. I pity Suhana for not understanding things around her, letting people mock her, she has no self respect, and the irony is that her husband still makes her believe that she does not need to change and she is just perfect the way she is. I feel sorry for Suahan as she might be the only lead who is hated so much by a huge majority despite having some great qualities, and Sgp is the only serial where the FEMALE LEAD is NOT PERFECT !!! And may be that's what the writer wanted to show. Only PERFECT women are accepted as leads.


I don't want to brag but when I put a hold on to my career, a lot of people use to ask me " oh you don't work " !! And it use to really annoy me... Women who stays at home are also unsung heroes, I have seen both sides, I find at least now when I am working full time at least I get to go out and meet other people , have bit of laugh , think about something else, but when I was full time Mom , honestly my confidence started to get shaky some times, there were times when I just wanted to run away as I felt really unappreciated... Now when I look back to those 10 years of my life which I totally dedicated to my children and husband and see my children I feel good and Thank Almighty for giving me courage .

@ Netri I liked you using Ragini as an example of what she eats for lunch, you left all the other number 1,2,3,4 ...10000 top actresses and choose her!!!! Thank you for that :) 😳

i watch only SGP so dont know hw perfect other leads are.
no one is perfect. but we always try 2 make our life & ourselves perfect.but suhana don't want 2 be anything.

SGP creators r making mockery of other shows. if they really want 2 change the SOCH of ppl then why don't they change themselves?why don't they show a lead woman who has a job...maintains her in laws,husband & kids...she has prb in her workplace,conflict with her husband...at the same time she is tryin her best 2 manage these things& her husband is helping her.why dont they show sanju is tellin kk that dad i dont want 2 get married cause i want 2 build my carrier first.
SGP was a story about a spoil brat who will become a woman.but the spoil brat is spoiling more & more.

@ VENTURE ,

I blame KK then Suhana . Vidisha is dead & It becomes KK's responsibility to teach her . BM has given Suhana many lessons , has she ever tried understanding it ? NO .

You say Ishan said she should remain the way she is . Well , Ishan also said her to b Achhi Bahu , Help out R - D - Around House . [ Old Episodes ] , Ask Suhana to take responsibility to Mumbai House . What happen? If she can remember Ishan does not want her to change then She can remember the times when He ask her to change .

She has 2 eyes & Debatable Brain . Does she see What others do around the house ? Does she see Other DILs of the house ? Soon , Sanju Issue come forward & with that she becomes Jethani Then what ?

As My Paa says There are 10,000 some reasons Why You did do the task but All You need is one reason to do it . I don't see Suhana as a kid , I see her adult & I held responsible for turning blind eye to her responsibility . Problem is she is yet to b held accountable for her actions or lack of them .

As for only bahu hated by People . I sometimes what Other shows & 2 - 3 I follow . one of them is SGP . Every Forum I see threads & posts that ask the same Q . Why Lead behaves this way ? If I remeber correctly , there was a time when people loved Suhana for everything . This Suhana is not that Suhana . LEADs are or ever were PERFECT . They all have good & bad sides . Suhana is no different . Some does they are told , Some follows their own path . Doesn't mean one is better than others . Some loves to look after people they love , care for while there are some who loves when Others take care of them . Each to their own . Suhana is not better than other SP Bahus or they are not better than Suhana .
