Agree. I hope Mandira never has to marry Sameer. It is THE worst possible thing that can happen to her.
Many years ago, in late 80s, there was a film with Jodie Foster called Accused. In it she played a promiscuous woman who was gang-raped by men in a bar, with other men cheering on. Blame was placed on Jodie's character that she was asking for it with her past history as well as flirty behavior that night with the very same bar patrons.
This movie was pivotal in changing the perception of rape. I was very young then. Even I remember the heated discussions in school about when a woman says no, she means no, even if she was encouraging the encounter before. News shows, current affair programs were all over this issue.
If handled correctly, Mandira's example can equally be pivotal.
