Could makers not make Mauli this perfect?? (DT Note pg. 12) - Page 4

I haven't read all the posts in this thread. And yes, I do have a preference to Mauli's character and maybe that's why I just asked you how she looks like a Devi? I wasn't attacking you LOL and if you read my post above I said domestic abuse is real hence I'm speaking for Nandini too!

And I just wrote a paragraph about how it's not just about household chores. We have seen Mauli struggle with handling relationships too. My mum had recently got outside help for household chores but she still likes doing it most of herself. Mauli has only been shown cooking once - how can she work in the day when she's a Doctor? That's why they've got a maid. Now how many scenes of the maid do you want to see?

Just curious (and Im sure your mom is wonderful and lovely 😊),but Im assuming she aint a top gynecologist in India who is not just working normal hours but even overtime and hardly has any breathing space let alone be able to do EVERYTHING in the house all alone? Thats where my question arises. She is shown as a highly successful and renowned gynae who is working overtime as well.My own cousin is a working doctor and has two kids and she is always upset about how she isnt able to cook for them or spend enough time with them when they are growing up. She also has a full time maid to look after her in laws and kids. Doing some part of the work is okay but here Mouli was shown as doing EVERYTHING from cooking to attending to dhobi/watchman to giving Dida her meds and list goes on. I think that part was overdone and far fetched and the CVs could have shown it differently without giving out such an unrealistically high expectation from a working woman. And I want to see as many scenes of the maid as is necessary. Atleast attending to watchman /dhobi can be done by her right ? Uske liye bhi Mouli kyu chahiye?

But Alohomora, Mauli works as a Doctor so the maid is probably working at home then right? It's a drama, they're not going to show the maid washing dishes and cleaning the house when they've got a story to tell.

But they do show Mouli washing dishes and cooking and attending to the watchman and serving medicines for Deeda and doing N number of things even when its not completely necessary and have more important things to tell in the story.Why even show a maid then because when she would be working it can automatically be assumed a maid is there at home to take care of the family.If you are going to show the maid right there doing nothing and Mouli doing everything toh then I am going to ask why isnt the maid doing anything!

No she isn't but she's a very busy lady. She doesn't fully like someone else doing her househould chores either because it's HER OWN house. When it's your own house, you want to look after it too. Mauli has a nice bond with her Dida and MIL so she looks out for them too. In today's world, everyone is rushed between work and home.

I think we will just have to leave it that because this situation doesn't seem realistic to you where as it does to me.

Thats comparing apples with oranges my friend. What I am complaining about is an unrealistically noble and flawless depiction of working women. Offcourse I will point it out because its hilarious to pay a maid to just come and offer juice to you and do no real work.Kuch toh logic use kare makers! And the people who you are saying are trying to justify it arent really trying to justify it .Probably trying to figure out what goes wrong in such a loving couple's relationship.Thats more from an analysis point of view than an accusation.

Yes because working women do their own chores as well when they're not working. It's absolustely normal.

Let's put it this way. When Mauli is at the hospital, the maid is working. When mauli is at home, she probably does some chores too.

You'll have to ask the creatives to show the maid working more 😛

I'm trying to think which show actually shows the maids chores and insights in to their life.

I didn't realise a top gynaecologist cannot do house chores when she's at home either. In the grand scheme of things, I also don't get how it impacts the actual storyline.
