Chunni as a identity of sikh women ! Sahiba is truly a sardarni

You might be wondering why in yesterday epi darji asked prabh to wear the chunni. So in sikh culture, men wear pagg and women cover their head with chunni to show that they are sardarni. Remember Sahiba being a devotee of guru nanak often wears chunni because it represents that there are elders which she is giving respect and also it represents she is a sikhi ...

Plus before going to gurudwara the womens are asked to cover their head. If anyone has noticed or not, Seerat shamelessly wore that barbie doll clothes on roka which looks weird and that's too not covering her Head.

I saw many tweets that why they are showing sahiba as religious orator, the thing is that this family is not traditional and to make them realise , sahiba is shown as spiritual woman who believes in God and she is pure ...

While I like the showcasing of Sikh culture, I kind of agree with the tweet people - it has been a long standing trope in ITV to show any woman who dresses modern or doesn’t show affinity for traditional rituals as villain(Ishqbaaz was the only difference in this respect that I could remember). ITV always pits the modern woman against the traditional/religious one - as if dressing/religion somehow makes one a better human being. I know enough people who dress conservatively whom I wouldn’t trust an inch and plenty who are traditional/religious/faithful etc who are downright nasty.

Being traditional, rooted in culture, in family, in faith is good but that does not make people who do not believe in God or have no faith or have different faith or dress in modern/ “western” clothing bad.

Case in point - Manbeer and Jasleen - one dresses modern , the other traditional- both are trash human beings.

That said- I would expect anyone - modern/traditional to show respect to places of worship or religious or spiritual events. Dressing appropriately for those is sign of a mature human being in my opinion or if you don’t wanna dress appropriately, just don’t go.

Actually here I m not saying that western dress is wrong. The dress seerat wore in her roka ceremony was very out of the box. If you see everyone was in their traditional attire because this is an internal ceremony ... One would wear saree or anything which looks decent.

Manbeer and Jasleen dressing sense is according to her characters, manbeer wears same sort of jewellery and saree which reflects that she has a rigid behaviour. Jasleen clothes represent her spoilt brat nature where she could show off her extravaganza as badi beti.

The thing is one must wear according to the occasion whether it's modern or traditional. Kiara dressing sense was cool but she was wearing a too much revealing clothes on the path day. As you said one must have good knowledge about what to wear or how to carry.

Zoya from Qubool Hai. She was Morden but yet was a strong believer in god.

I too am against the cliche that good bahus/women wear traditional costume while those dressed in modern attire tends to be negative. It is one of the facts that make ITV regressive. How many in today's world wear only sarees post marriage?

I agree that in some places like holy places or while seeking blessing of elders wearing traditional clothes or covering the head looks good. I always cover my head in church, though it is not mandatory these days.
