i dont get why the word 'behenji' is so offensive. i'm not a hindi speaker. what i think the word mean is someone who is not attractivee to typical males who cant see beyond physical appearance, someone they might want to call sister. and I would personally prefer to be called behenji than 'sexy'. because to me the 2nd word seems like I'm being considered only for that kind of relation, not as a human being. but sister is a word of respect. so I'm proud to be a behenji, traditional, conservative but independent

I heard from some of my friends who are boys, that this sexy appearance they like just to pass comments on them, just an a timepass..

But when they are asked about their dream girl, they all want some one who respects our Indian culture.. otherwise it will be risky for their future..

Even many modern boys, including IT professionals have the thought in this subject..

So, what is the greatness in being someone's entertainment item??

exactly my thought. I would much prefer to be appreciated for my achievements rather than my looks on which i had no control over and is going to fade away anyway. and I think I can do much better things for the world and for my dear ones than trying to attract male species 😆.

Btw I'm not Indian but Bangladeshi. though our cultures are similar, we are probably a bit more conservative (specially in dressing sense). at least my circle is.

Nothing wrong in being behenji. It's funny shagun out of insecurity giving names n so much importance to it in d show . Ruhi is kid so they might ve shown telling d kid wat is wat. They might ve shown some other if they want to show ishita in western clothes. The way of showing d stone age issue abt traditional n modern issue in soaps will be senseless n funny.

Nothing wrong with being Behenji . I think Ishta or Ramen don't care. it's only Shagun's insecurity and Ruhi's response but she us just a kid doesn't really understand meaning only knows that it's a insult to her Ishima .

Ishita is very confidant person she believes in herself she doesn't try to convince others because she doesn't need anyone's approval .When you're different, sometimes you don't see the millions of people who accept you for what you are. All you notice is the person who doesn't. Ishita heard what Shagun said but it really didn't affect her so who cares? I personally think it's very funny . They are giving too much importance to this word and we should ignor it

PS . I think they wanted to show Inshita in western dress to start Parmeet track .

By the way Ishita's green dress looked a bit odd, not a practical one. She cant move around that mohalla wearing it. And she was uncomfortable in it and finding excuses while the others were condescending. The only person who appreciated it was that man who was happy to see her bare legs and went orgasmic.
What was endearing and funny was Ishita working the dress to fit her and not strangulate her.
