Why I think Fake Pregnancy was NOT a good idea?

Disclaimer: This is NOT a bashing post. So bashers stay out of it. I am just stating my opinion and want to hear other opinion as well. By this post, I just want to have some healthy discussion with everyone and contribute in forum rankings. I have already posted my stand but reposting it here as well.

I still dont think fake pregnancy was the right step taken by RagLak to do something right. No it wasnt.

1) Is it ok for the child to grow up with a lie about its own identity? One day the kid will come to know about its identity. One day everyone will know. Do you know what heart break or mental trauma the child would suffer then realizing how the world never wanted the kid to be alive and how his/her parents/sibliings/family never had the strength to fight for its rights?

2) I honestly dont care about AP and Sujjata coz they are hypocrites and have double standards in their own way. I was damn infuriated when they had asked Shomi to have an abortion. So I dont care for the feelings. But it is still a lie you shouldn't be saying. No matter how much you like or dislike them, it is still playing with their emotions. And its not like Ragini didn't have a support. If I remember clearly, DP had clearly asked the ladies of MM household to back out and not interfere. And that he will support Shek Shomi decision, if that decision was to have the baby. All Ragini had to go was talk to DP and he would have made sure the ladies of the house dont do anything against and let Shek Shomi have the kid.

3) I have hated Shek-Shomi in this entire track. A mother cares for her child the most. I just dont get it. Shomi, being a single mother, didnt care about the samaj and its pressure when she had Swara. And now all of a sudden she does. Shekhar was always a spineless father. So I have no comments on that. Instead of agreeing to Ragini's plan, he could have gotten angry at her for coming out with such an idea. I just dont get it. How the hell Shek Shomi were ready to give away their child like that, without thinking what the child will feel when he/she grows up and knows the truth? Parents fight for the kid. Even if they have to fight with their own family, they do. And fighting doesn't mean go insult the elders and thrash them however you want or leave them alone. Its just called speaking up for the right. And I think in this Shek-Shomi turned out to be a big time cowards

4) CVs messed with Ragini's character big time here. Ragini, when she was negative, when she was fighting for her love, did every evil thing possible, without thinking about the family, samaj and the reputation. So once Ragini is positive, she will lose that strength? All of a sudden she is scared for the reputation? What would have made more sense was Ragini taking DP and AP into her confidence and rest would have automatically fallen into place. And DP would have handled dadi somehow too. The girl who fought for her parents relationship with her sibling and was ready to break off the engagement with the ONLY love of her life was now scared for the same? Even when her husband would have supported her? When she would have gotten the support from her father in law too? Doesn't make sense to me. My only thing is if Ragini was shown taking this step before she turned negative, her helplessness and worry about the 'reputation' of the family would have still been understood by me. But right now, I just dont get it.

5) Dadi, I hate the most. Everyone is putting the blame on halaat and how dadi tried to kill the child and everything. My question is, didn't dadi try to kill Shomi as well (more than once) when she was against Shek-Shomi wedding? Didn't she fake to accept Shomi and then tried killing her? What did Shek do then? Did he hide somewhere? Or did he fake to marry some marwari woman but was married to Shomi? Did the girls lie about that? No they didn't. They fought for Shomi. And the condition then was worse then what the condition (halaat) was right now (the one Ragini referred too). They were removed from their samaj, their faces were blackened and what not. But still, Shek got married to Shomi then (one good thing this man ever did). He fought for her. And that time entire society was against them. And still they fought and got accepted. Was she able to harm Shomi after? No right. How hard would it have been to fight for your own child? Especially when you would have had full support from not only your kids and their husbands but also people like DP, RP and Adarsh would have supported too.

6) My last and final point. For every battle that you start with society, you have to make sure first the family accepts it. If the family doesn't, society is not going to accept it too. And thats what they showed us earlier during the Shek-Shomi marriage and Swara's birth truth. As soon as everyone came to know about that, they were humiliated. DP made sure they were thrown out of the so called samaj. But still the girls and Shek-Shomi fought. They got married, stayed together, made sure their family accepts them. DP slowly realized how wrong he was and accepted and then society had NO RIGHT to oppose and accepted them. Every thing begins from the family. My point is all RagLak had to do was convince few members of the family and they would have joined hands and that would have saved them to not to put the facade of fake pregnancy.

Again, this is not a bashing post. So bashers, stay away.

Shonali the problem is not only about the idea actually, the writing of this track was so bad. I mean redemption and guilt is something that should be accepted by viewers, but forcing us to accept a character and spoiling all other well established characters is something I don't get.
See if shomi would have been some meek, scared lamb from the beginning who cares about the society so much then may be this FP would have made sense. But shomi as a character was all about breaking the so called laws of this stupid society. She had pre martial sex with her lover, gave birth to swara without a wedlock and got married at this age. But now suddenly her character is all about society norms?
I agree ap and sujju are the biggest hypocrites and have no rights to be upset with ragini but it was not difficult to handle them, ragini could have gone to dp for ap and Ap would backed out, along with her she would have controlled sujju too. And if sujju was still adamant she could have gone to sanskar, and tada the matter would have resolved.
Handling dadi was easy too shomi and shekhar could have moved out, they were anyway planning to go to bananas for this FP right?
Ragini's character after this FP has become so confusing, I mean for her wrong intentions she broke all the rules of this society but for a right intent she can't break a society norm?
I mean what do we conclude about her as a character? What is she at the end of the day?
The problem with this FP was that she was not only breaking the trust of ap and sujju, she was not only hurting their emotions but she did hurt dp, ram, Adarsh, uttara and swasan too. They too were looking forward to this new member's arrival right?
Lakshay too has become a confusing soul after this track, I mean he insulted ap and sujju for kavya when they ridiculed her clothing, dancing, eating habits, etc. But he can't take a stand for ragini, I mean he was right when he opposed them for kavya but yeah he was quite rude and insulting. He could have toned it down for ragini, take a firm stand for her but politely without being rude.
I am angry with sanskar too, he too has disappointed me as a character, why the hell did he support ragini and on top of all he started comparing her with swara? For God sake sanskar do u know swara at all?

Lovely post ..
If someone I was most furious with in this entire track then it was shomi n shekhar .. they absolutely don't need anyone to protect their baby .. supporters can be there but ultimately it had to be them .. they are adults n mature and they agreeing with the idea of ragini made me feel like "what really"? .. it's ur baby go n fight .. shekhar n shomi could have easily come up with a solution .. dadi oh my trying to kill a child n going against your son's happiness was disgraceful n pathetic ..
In both case of shekhar -shomi n dadi they showed weak parenting which I dint like ..
I honestly feel no other member beside ur own parents can have a say on the baby ..
kidnapping the kid by dadi was like ..??? .. CVS could have left the baby Atleast from the kidnapping ..
when the kid grows up n comes to know that my parents dint fight for me n were ready to give up on me is disheartening ..
Frankly speaking who cares Wat AP n sujju think .. I fail to understand y people got carried away ..
I dint like the whole idea n it was purely sad ..
Sry but I felt that it was ragini redemption track again which dint go well so now they are coming up new one ..
In all worst track by SR CVS

Thanks Akansha for your reply. I completely agree with you on this.

@Bold: Thats my main problem. Like Ragini, when she was evil didn't give an eff about anything other then the fact that she just wanted to any how win the love of her life. And everything she did was wrong. And she CONFIDENTLY went ahead with that without looking back even for once. And everyone says Swara and Ragini are two individuals. Swara has the STRENGTH to fight the society and Ragini doesn't. Or Ragini has a different way of fighting the society and Swara has a different way? What difference are they even talking about? Like, if Ragini fought SO MUCH for her love, she cannot fight for her own sibling confidently, even after knowing the fact that the family has supported her and forgiven her for every wrong thing she has done before? All she had to do was voice her opinion strongly out to DP and AP, they would have made sure Shek-Shomi at any cost are not forced to have abortion and can happily raise the kid together.

With regards to shomi and shekhar, I didn't find their stance wrong at all.. I am not surprised with their behavior at all...

Shomi might have had a child out of wedlock years back but then she was young n ready to take on the world.., now I don't think so..

Shomi desired to get back with shekhar n as far as I know swaragini n laksh got them together..
After the raglak first marriage , shomi-shek parted.. Again Swara took the fake narrative route to get them together.. Shomi did nothing but support Swara.. Shomi did desire to get back with her husband...
Shomi desires to have a kid with this late pregnancy n again she is supporting Which ever way ragini has taken...

I see shomi like this only.. Sorry for the difference in opinion...

@Akansha
Sorry forgot to add this.

I wasnt disappointed with Sanskaar's dialogue. In fact I was the few ones who got what he was trying to say. Swara was really angry at that moment with Ragini for lying (even if it was for good intention). And to calm her down, he said that. Thats what SwaSan do. When one is angry, the other one calms him/her down even after knowing the fact that the anger is very well justified.
Whatever Sanskaar said then, didn't mean that he was supporting Ragini over Swara. He knew she was wrong. He knew she shouldn't have done that at any cost. But still, to lighten the moment then, he said that.
And regarding helplessness, I guess he was referring to a situation coz he himself became Kishan just to be around Swara during the ML phase. So that is what he referred too. My only thing is, he gets the situation, but doesn't support it one bit.

That was my take on it

You dont have to apologize for a difference in opinion. I respect your POV like you respected mine. So thank you for that.
I still kind off disagree to you to a certain extent. Shek-Shomi wanted to get married but not without their family's consent. And when Shek found out that dadi was actually pretending and tried killing Shomi, he went ahead and filled her manage in front of everyone. That was unexpected for everyone. He wanted to leave his parents house with both of his daughters and Shomi for her safety. But she didn't go. She went to gadodia house to fight and have a place in their hearts even after knowing the fact that Shek's parents hated her the most and her life was still at stake. And this was THE fighting spirit I was looking in this particular issue.
