I am Indian and I have lived outside of India my whole life...my parents have been living in America for over three decades now, but they still believe in the old "indian tradition" where men were the breadwinners and women took care of the house and kids. Yes, my mother works, but she also takes care of the house. Whereas my dad just works and when it come to housework he doesn't do anything. He believes that ghar ka kaam should be done by women. Now, thats a very outdated thought because back then women were not independent, but nowadays they are. So with changing times, certain ideals should be changed, but the older generation does not always conform to the modern world and ideals. That would probably be the job of our generation 😉
Its the same with this show, they are comparing Toasty with their mother and I think even Toasty knows that she is being compared to her saas. Her saas lived in a time where the majority of women did not work and they were mostly housewives.
As for saying something against women or changing mindset, being a housewife can actually be harder than having a career. I know cuz I have been doing ALL the housework at home since schools been out and it sucks!!! 🤢 I would rather be in school and stress about exams 😆
