I again feel the need to vent out my frustration with the CVs on the way they are downgrading Khushi's character. I think the CVs are not able to understand where to draw the line between Khushi being "funloving & bubbly" & being downright obnoxious & interfering.
Is the Khushi we see now the same sanskari & sensible girl , that we were introduced to , in the beginning. Which self respecting sanskari girl goes to a party uninvited ? Forget not getting an invitation , she is infact explicitly told by the host that he is not inviting her, because he does not want her at his party.Which sanskar , indian or western , can justify Khushi's act of still going to this party ?
Ok, so she throws her self respect & goes to the party uninvited. And what does she do there !?! She has decided that she does not like the theme of the party. She wants it to be a "jalsa" which the host , who is paying for the party & who has put in considerable efforts to arrange the party, has explicitly told her he does not want. But she goes ahead & gate crashes the party , steam rolls over all his arrangements & changes the theme of the party to suit her idea of fun. Don't know of any sanskar that would approve of this selfishness.
She is a small town girl. For a small town "sanskari" girl, to dance at someone's party, of her own accord (not at the request of the host or anybody else) , in front of a crowd of unknown people, where her presence is not sought by the host & when there is no occasion for dancing(ie. it is not a wedding or any such festival) just because she wants to have fun is not in character. Isn't that what La did with her "character dheela" dance ? She wanted to make Anjali's wedding anniversary party "fun" , so she decided to arrange for her idea of fun bollywood dance at
Anajali's desi do & was labeled as "character dheela" for her efforts. Is what Khushi did at ASR's party so different from what La did ? And are we supposed to believe that she is still sanskari ?
Mind you I am not saying that it is not sanskar if a girl dances. But there is a time & place & occassion for everything. And it becomes non-sankari when it is done at the wrong time , wrong place & for the wrong reason.
Do the CVs think that eating desi, dancing desi & talking desi is all that it takes to be a sanskari character ?
So lets keep aside sanskar for the time being & focus on sisterly love & see if we can justify Khushi's character in that context..She is supposedly smart & selfless & did it all to entertain Payal, who ,according to her, would be getting bored at such a party. But isn't she the same girl who supposedly behaved "maturely" & decided to hide shyam's truth from the raizadas to save Payal's marriage. Isn't she the one who said she would do anything if it meant not risking
payal's marriage. And here she goes & sabotages a party thrown by Payal's volatile brother-in-law who she knows for sure would hate what she has done... and all this just in the name of "fun". Isn't it like insulting ASR in front of his friends & colleagues by trying to show that ASR does not know how to organize his own party. Marriages have been broken for far smaller reasons.
I think its high time the CVs replaced this "character dheela" Khushi with the old sensible Khushi.
