I am quite a happy viewer today. Because first thing Kaikeyi's problem was her broken expectation nothing hidden about it. When she hears Sita is orphan instead of listening to Manthara she pushes Manthara out and tells such a girl cannot be bride for her Ram. She wants Bharat to be at par with Ram, but as far as marriage goes she doesnt want anything less for Ram.
And Ram when he told that line he knew Mata Kaikeyi will be upset and only if she sees Mithila through his eyes she can be convinced. Saying that he will write a letter to her and asks Lakshman to ensure it reaches her fast.

Ram didnt come for swayamvar, but swayamvar has been done and today Ram displayed not only the qualities of a dutiful son, but also a dutiful husband. Because through his action of convincing his mother, he is ensuring respect for his would be bride too in the family. Dont you want your family to accept your husband or wife.

What does it hold for today's generation. All those people who wants love marriage, mark that sentence. Parents have expectations on their child's marriage. Understand this basic truth. Not only parents, your sister, brother everyone has some dreams for your would be life partner. Maybe your siblings when they see the person whom you love or interact with the person you love they might jell fast. Just like Lakshman jo tarif pe tarif kartha jaata tha apni bhabi ka. Someone will be like Bharath who think you cannot go wrong. If you have choosen you have choosen with level head. Actually even having one person like Bharath who talks so sweetly for your sake is your biggest asset. Never break the trust of such an individual.

But then one parent may agree, other may not. Because some accept the reality for some it is little bit hard to deal with broken expectation.

If you as a son or daughter understand this broken expectation , be emphathic towards it and maybe through a letter or through a heartfelt talk can tell your parent why you have choosen the boy or girl asking them to meet the girl or boy, interact with the family they will budge. After all you are their child. They want your happiness. And yes even during first meeting they will have some crib here and there. If your partner understand that crib and together if you both work in convincing the parent with your loving actions and respect you can easily make a love marriage arranged marriage.
Your mother will be the one boasting around about her new DIL or your father will boast about his new SIL.

So it is for you to decide do you want to rebel. Shout jeena marna saath saath, run away and do a marriage. Or bend a little, put in some effort together so that you have a marriage blessed by elders and instead of dying you can live together.

unres😊
Di once again a awesome post👏👏👏
Parents are the one who give their children a bright future good values. I agree with you di marriage is the biggest decision in everyone's life. And its natural that every parent wants the best person as a spouse in their child's life.And understanding parents feelings its the duty of every person.To make them understand as Ram did in todays's episode.Everyone including Bharat is displeased with his mothers opinion but Ram the way he understood Maharahi Kaikeyi's feelings👏👏👏The whole hearted consent of parents for the marriage is most important thing. Its the duty of every person to try and convince their parents for the relationship
One can marry going against parents will and wish but they realise the consequences later on and regret it.The worsest feeling in the world is to live alone. Two persons can never make the entire family and its because of their hasty decision they have to start their newly married life and lead the entire life with a guilt that why they did not try to convince their parents for their marriage

👏

For me Marraige is the biggest decision of life and it is always fruitful if it is done with proper blessings from elders--------but no offence to all those who ...unfortunate to have those with them i am using unfortunate because as in today world...in most of families u will get Broken expectation at large ...so there should be always balance...its Children duty to understand and try to fix out those broken expectation similarly also it is duty of parents too...to value and understand children POV...

The most spectaculing ..line said by ram today...Children should not only respect thier elders but also...they should have the proper knowledge of thier expectation and similarly parent should...also learnt to see the things from children prespective...then only in todays materialistic and techno age where values are almost vanishing and relationship have become mere joke...this type of balancing is very much needed!!😊

Just lovinggg it!!!!!

@antika my take is more than 70% of the parents bend if you approach them the right way. Even among 30% only there will be some 10-15% who will go to extreme steps like honor killing. I will only advocate running away if there is a serious threat to life by parents of either side. Any other problem can be resolved through dialogue.

Shruthi ...first of all...u write amazing posts...I love reading your topics and ur POV...👏 Plz continue writing such good things ya😳
oNe of the reasons lord Vishnu took the incarnation of Ram was because he wanted to show humanity the core values of life...

I have this complain with today's generation...they fail to understand their parents...if parents try to impose their decision then parents become a hurdle...I completely agree that parents need to handle the situation maturely ...which some parents do...but I just want to ask one question...if parents..who give birth , who look after their child ...his/her every need...take major decisions for children from the cradle ...wish to bring a certain patner for their child is it wrong...

I agree that many elders handle the situation in a wrong way...but ultimately they are humans yar...they through have gone through a lot in life ... For their children...I guess every child should have that one though before taking any wrong decision, before prioritizing his or her lover over parents...after certain age every human develops something called as brain..and becomes capable of understanding things...why don't most of them think and try to handle things in a matured way...just because your parents are elder and have given birth to you you expect them to understand everything and act for your wish...this is not right na...some times parents too don't handle things maturely but then when both sides love each other they should be ready to at least see and list to the other person...and 90% of times it is parents who listen..and adjust and understand...

Well I got carried away😃...I love my parents ..anything which hurts them hurts me...and I hate it when kids turn their back towards their parents when someone new enters their life...

One more thing as you said...if approached the right way a loving parent will always understand their child's situation...I feel mostly children today in the name of modernization take their parents lightly in this matter which is wrong

@cool thank you for the appreciation. Children need to understand that parents do have a wish for their kid, especially marriage. Just having that understanding itself will be a big step in solving the issue if a person falls in love. In some cases love happens, it is not pre-determined, especially in places where boys and girls frequently interact.
Problem happens only rigid stands are taken. I love DDLJ movie for one big thing. The way Raj goes all out to convince Simran's dad that he is the ideal son -in-law for his daughter. Yes it was funny at times. But he had the option of running away with the girl, she was willing, he mother was willing still he persists with his approach. That movie is still relatable because of that factor I would say.

Another beautiful post di
I feel its true that the real apes the reel
I guess more or less the exposure of the media has stimulated the young minds to act in that extreme manner .
These young brains are getting too Mich exposed , the body is growing fast but the brain is working at the usual pace this worsens the situation.
Its even sometimes disgusting (sorry for the harsh word ) to hear my schoolmates talk about this thing , like they are 25 year old so depressed .
So , at one place we have this ever fastening young generation to take any bold step
On the other end if we seriously talk about honour killing which parent would want to kill his child , its the biradri the clan that comes in and this is actually the sole reason for honour killing
Again I know people might criticize siya ke ram for too much mordenity and they are right too , but I guess this was a much needed show to have incorporated these topics so well

@charvi SKR is taking Ramayan through society perspective only. Have they made Ram or Sita utter anything that is against the values Ram and Sita stood for. I would say no. But certain things are made explicit through dialogues which the younger generation needs.
You dont have to tell me. I know instances where not having a boyfriend or girlfriend is a matter of shame for the 8th std student , this kids dont even know the proper meaning of the words. And to add on things like live-in, pre-marital etc are glorified and are made fashionable. My generation grew up with a certain set of values. And I still believe those core values are supposed to be followed for the betterment of individual, family and society.

👏 Apt eg dear...

If u also see...when Raj's dad is beaten finally...he decides to leave ... Not waiting for anything else...he loved Simran to the core...but see when his dad I'd beaten he just tries to forget everything and leaves...😊

Like I said re...kids expect their parents to understand n bend...I am not against love, but a love which is build on parents tears can never stand strong n we can see that ... All I want is if a child thinks a bit n convinences his /her parents n if the parents to love their child the situation ends in a happy note...parents bhi humans hai Yar

U can call me Anu😃
