Who the hell goes to bed dressed in all their finery?
This is one of my biggest bugbears when it comes to desi serials.
The men always change their clothes...but the women? No one I know goes to sleep wearing heavy sarees and suits, full make-up and all their jewellery. Would it kill them to put her in a pair of pj's at the very least. Ok, so pj's might kill the moment a bit 😃, but you get what I mean. She could wear a high-necked, long-sleeved, full-length priests cossack for all I care, just as long as she isn't going to bed dressed like she's off to a wedding!!😡
Seriously, I can't relate to this idea at all. Inject some realism into their bedtime routine for crying out loud. Nothing risky, nothing sexy, nothing revealing. Just some ordinary, decent nightwear. Is that too much to ask?😕
We had a similar issue in another show and started a thread to voice our frustration. Lo and behold several episodes later, the female characters all began wearing nighties to bed!
Sort it out creatives..

I totally agree! How stupid!
Personally, I hate how Bebo has to wear her dupatta draped at hier neck as if it is about strangle the poor girl!
If anything take off the dupatta and jewellery and sleep comfortable in the salwar suit.

Oh thank God, I'm not the only one who has noticed this.
Just watching her sleep like that makes me feel suffocated. I agree, sleep in the salwar suit only, atleast that's more realistic. I know some people in the Indian sub-continent wear there ordinary, everyday cotton salwar suits to bed. They don't have pj's as such but these cotton ones act as nightwear (they're cooler in the heat).
Even that is acceptable to me. but yaar these heavily embroidered suits and such just look so damn ridiculous.

Exactly ... and for since they keep saying they are a "poor family," then shouldn't they be preserving thier nice cloths...why sleep in them!
The dupatta thing really gets to me!

i totally agree with both of you. How can she even sleep with all that jewelery and make-up on? I can't even imagine that...
and they show that in EVERY indian serial, I mean here, bebo goes to sleep in a suit (not that it's fine), but in some shows, they show the actresses going to bed in saris!!
does it kill them to be a little realistic?...

They spend so much time, energy and money dressing their actors in the best attire, driving the best cars, living in the best houses, using the best glycerine drops, that after all that there just doesn't seem to be enough money in the kitty for something as simple as a nightie!

Rakhie di .. thank u for bringing this up .. U know at one point I was going to ask one of u gals whether all of u'll wear saree's to bed ,,,
don't get me wrong .. I'm not Indian n thought there must be some kinda tradition or habit .. coz every serial that I watch these gals are in make up, jewelery and heavy saree's . n sleeping in them ..
I was wondering who does that ?? that's y I never asked the question from u, or dash or beena di .. coz I knew u'll will think I'm nuts ...
