I would say, Mishti was concerned for Pari. But the execution was poor.

Pari, who was shown to beat another guy just for teasing her just got ready to put up with anything because she doesn't want to ruin her sister's party. 😕

And Mishti, she made it a point to oust Ruhaan but didn't inform police. 😲

It's actually pathetic that serious issues are introduced only as a plot device to draw sympathy for a particular character or to make the leads closer. They did the same with Nandini. She was mentally and physically abused to the extent that she had suffered from a miscarriage. But they showed it to justify KuNan & everything fall apart.

Even in other shows I have seen how sensitive topics get introduced only to make the leads MAHAN. This really needs to stop. 😡

Biggest problem with this show is execution.

Probably mishti doesn't knw wht happened prior to mishti caught the creep trying to kiss her back.. n even pari did not tell any1 anything.. I m not sure if there r some some charges for wht mishti saw the creep doin.. If there s then she shud hv done it.. It s a plot hole I agree..
Ruhaan ws angry n his reaction did go with the scenario..
Disappointed in arnav n radhika.. veer I dint hv much hopes anyway, he s cold most of the tyms n he doesn't knw pari tht well..so his reaction was good enough in tht sense..

It's not about Pari vs Mishti or any character
This is strictly about makers using a sensitive topic like molestation to bring the leads close or like a plot device, even if they are using it, they should have the least amount of sensitivity required for this.

Pari's reaction was the worst and frankly not a single character acted like they should have under these circumstances, they just made it about Mishti fighting her feelings for Ruhaan and yelling at him because she has feelings for him, they even made Ruhaan hitting that creep about his feelings for Mishti so in a nutshell, a woman can get molested and its fine as long as she is not the lead or most loved character.

@ProudAhamian - Mishti saw him trying to kiss Pari, it's not only a criminal offense but a non bailable offense

First of all, I missed Ur posts. Ur posts were the only ones when one could give unbiased opinions. Or should I say, I missed reading similar thoughts as mine.
Coming to the topic, I had exactly same feelings. To start with, pari did not give in to the guy's demands n go out, she was going out to keep the party unaffected. This girl is badass, she can handle a guy alone, so I don't think she did anything wrong in this. If need be, her family was just a call away, so she was safe too. Then when mishti yelled at the guy, pari repeatedly said that she'll handle it. Pari didn't look surprised or shocked when mishti told her what that guy was trynna do. So that should be enough a hint for others to know that pari knew what was happening there n she must have faced something before the others came to know of it. But radhika, Arnav, mishti...nobody cared to ask her what had happened. Mishti's anger got directed towards ruhaan in a second. Ruhaan got angry cuz he couldn't take mishti's accusations. I loved the scene when pari cried hugging ruhaan. That was a scene where I could feel how lonely pari is in spite of having family. The way she said, Kuch Nahi, baas Rona aa Gaya...that really broke my heart too. After she lost her mother when she was just a baby n then her buddy who was her world, she finally found someone in whose arms she can cry like a baby. We may call it her guilt about the past or her love for her sister, but even in worst of any conditions, this girl thinks about what mishti must be feeling or going through. If mishti didn't react like that, I m sure pari would have given more attention to her issue. But when both of them r in pain due to any reason, pari will keep her issues aside n think about mishti. Oh I love this girl!
N I love this guy ruhaan! He is so sorted omg! In a fraction of moment he can change his behaviour. If mishti's accusations bothered him to an extent that he hit the guy black n blue, the moment he saw pari her tears affected him. He forgot what all mishti said in a moment n made sure pari was made to feel secure n comfortable. N now when ruhaan was again humiliated, pari forgot what had happened with her just a while ago n she tried to make him feel better. Rihaan is the most precious bond of this season😳
I agree mishti loves pari a lot n she is genuinely concerned for her but the execution is so poor that it shows that mishti is full of herself n nothing is more important than her emotional locha. Mishti was full of her anger, veer was full of guilt n self pittying, radhika n Arnav only cared until they knew pari was with veer, hence safe. Thank God su bua didn't give her rubbish...it's ok it happens n all.
I wonder why they don't show ansh as a loving brother. What they r showing about him is good...these teenage issues n lack of a man in the family n all. But in spite of all this, a boy does love his sisters n always has that protective feeling for them even if he is way younger than the sisters. We hardly ever get to see true love from ansh's side. They r overdoing while showing that he can't open up with his elder sisters. They could have showed his love n concern for his sisters. But no! They have to make everything about Mishti's anger issues n her feelings alone! I m no mishti hater, I just hate such scenarios in any show where unnecessary importance is given to the leads in certain scenario where the demand of that scenario is something else!

Yep same happened in naagin 3 with vish recently and there was outrage whilst one of the writers or someone from the creative (who was also female) seemingly mocked viewers on Instagram for being outraged over it. 😡

Vish was kidnapped by the villain hukum and I believe she was unconscious when he impregnated her. This whole issue of rape was glossed over in the show with all the characters including vish acting like nothing had happened the moment she got home. 🤢


So essentially rape was used as a plot device once again by ekta to create drama in naagin.

Ekta did the same thing years back on star plus when star plus released a promo informing viewers that 3 incidents of rape were going to happen across 3 ekta shows, these rapes in question being of krishna tulsi from kyunki saas bhi kabhi bahu thi, mithali from kahani ghar ghar kii and mukti from kasauti zindagi ki. Even till this date I think W*F when i think about that promo, and how they used rape as a way to hype up the shows. 😡

It's unfortunate that such issues are used as a plot device and surprisingly even we so called educated, unbiased viewers put up with it as long as it's not the FL or ML in question.

Even I have noticed, makers do all sorts of things to keep the FL PURE by society's standard that if they are attacked or something, some sort of miracle happens.

Kya Kasoor Tha Amla Ki probably is the only show in recent time where a rape victim was the protagonist. If there are more, please let me know their names. 😊

Everyone has their own opinion and I agree to disagree with them sometimes.

But I cannot help but wonder if the same situation had happened with Mishti, would the members react the same way. Pari is the victim here and here I have read at least 5 different thread of comments how she is the worst and she doesn't value Mishti and bla bla bla. Like what the hell? 😡

Thanks Behna

It was a party, there was loud music too. Pari has had this kind of experience with loud music in her childhood, even if her family was a call away, I don't think they could hear her and this is taking unnecessary risks. Is a party more important than your life? Pari's reaction to this whole thing was disappointing, I understand she can handle it herself but it was extremely foolish to even think about going out with a man who is not in his senses and is trying to touch you inappropriately.

Ansh's smoking and Pari's molestation were turned into Mishti's jasbaat for Ruhaan, I don't mind this glorification of leads but I don't like when they use something like eve teasing and molestation a plot device

Exactly
Female lead should be safe, other women in the show will get molested and everyone will cry about "Why didn't the girl who was molested console her sister who lashed out at her fiance's friend because she can't control her feelings?"
