And last of all, there's always a motivation behind every piece of literature/ music/ movies/ characters. They either try to entertain you or they have some message etc. They have created Ishita as a better human being than most of us. I find no problem with that. Just because normal women behave in a certain way, doesn't necessarily mean that they should. Besides, if people wanted to see normal characters in movies/ serials, they wouldn't need to turn on the TV or go to the theaters! They could just can peek out of their windows and watch their neighbors do all sorts of 'normal' things!
@ Ishita is old enough NOT to be played by ANYBODY, least of all Shagun, who has humiliated her countless times and plotted against her as many times. Yes, she had a choice. Now that her in-laws KNOW that IshRa are looking forward to their future and are BEGINNING to be happy, she could have suggested that some other arrangements be made for the mother-son pair..Dont tell me a CURRENT wife cannot expect or demand of her husband and in-laws THIS much...No woman deserves to be subjected to such second-class treatment. Her priorities do NOT seem to figure out in ANY of the Bhallas's minds, and that's a sad scenario for Indian women, everywhere...
I completely disagree. Ishita, HOWEVER concerned about her sister's impending wedding and her troubled fiance, had the duty to discuss it with her in-laws, or atleast her HUSBAND...how to go about it. I refuse to believe Mihir could not have kept it out of IshRa's and Mihika;s way..he would've found a far more logical safe step to keep Shagun at bay, than have Ishita BRING Shagun right into the limelight..right into Mi-Mi;s lives...If Shagun hadn't reconnected with her dear bro, ASHOK wouldn;t found a thousand easy ways to get rid of her, by first exporting her to her brother;s house and then planning to bed Mihika...If Mihir had managed to keep Shaggy out of his face for a damn six yrs, dont tell me, he wouldn't have managed to do it further on...There was no need for the fake bonding between his fiance and his sister...
Mihika and Ishita are BOTH responsible for MISHOK drama...How can a woman like Ishita, the great detective, have sat around peacefully, NOT finding out and going into the depth of WHICH friend Mihika is talking about? This woman who could believe a non-entity like Sanjana...did not care to dig deeper into Mihika;s well-laid plans and just scooted off to give her the generic advice she has ready for EVERYBODY else...how is this logical?? and how ha it helped matters?? Its worsened them...
Normal women who have been on the brink of molestation and lecherous advances, will think ten times before getting the molester home ...no matter WHAT the rishta...there's something called self-respect, caution, dignity...Simmi would not have left the house and gone off into the sunset FOREVER. She would have cme running back to her Raman bhai, once she'd have seen her husband's true colours...and we're forgetting she managed quite well when she was in Dubai and Param was busy gallivanting with Sarika. And for god's sake, however horrible Param is, he isn't a murderer or wife-beater...So to take EVERYBODY's responsibility, WITHOUT consulting the elders in the family, sounds like arrogance to me...
I respectfully disagree with your opposite views. Sorry there.
I disagree with your agreement on the Opposite of what I've mentioned up there.
Being blindly in love with your husband and trusting him EVEN in the most vulnerable situation, are, two diff things. Love has NOTHING to do with Raman's obsession over his first child. If you're a parent of two, you'd know parents generally have a fixation with the first-born and just cant seem to get enough of that child. So, EVEN if (as I've mentioned and which you've missed out, I guess), RAMAN doesn't fall for his EX-WIFE out of pure love or lust of whtever...to LEAVE the house till your criminal-minded, maniacal, disturbed step-son gets alright, is B.S. its dangerous. You're basically putting your own relationship in line, coz there are millions of chances the child can manipulate his father to get back with the divorcee ex-wife, coz he wants to be with family and all...So yeah, its not UN-healthy..its RISKY.
If you're calling my thoughts "condescending" that automatically translates to "I'm condescending"...suppose I say to you, "What downmarket, cheap, illogical thoughts you have!" what would it mean?
Anyway, I'm glad you're far-sighted, but I'd like to tell you...In life, calculations dont ALWAYS work. Sometimes you've got to go by intuition...and I've ample amount of it...and its rarely failed me...God Proposes, Man Disposes...We might strategise and plan a certain way...but there's an inner voice screaming out inside of everybody...that's more powerful than the best laid-down rules...I swear by it :)
I'm sorry to burst your bubble, but by painting Ishita like the lamb available for sacrifice, like the woman born to endure everything, like the woman who's wishes comes last, like the woman who;s got to fight tooth and nail for everybody to love and accept her (while the MAN doesnt) fits into EACH and EVERY episodic formula adopted by almost ALL soaps these days...So WHAT different are the TV channels showing? I'd have been more impressed had they portrayed a strong woman, with a mind of her own, who doesn't give into Parivaar nonsense day in and day out, thinks about her happiness too, behaves selfishly, forgives wisely, takes no shit...I'm sorry but Ishita generally doesnt fulfill these qualities...these days...
So yeah, if the neighbour's next-door drama shows as much crass nonsense as this, where women are treated like downmarket second-class citizens, then I'd rather watch this and other countless saas-bahu soaps (where the BAHU has to fight for EVERYTHING she rightfully deserves) coz I get additional entertainment of shocking BG scores, costumes, hotties like KP and DT...why bother peeping into average people's windows without a pinch of tadka??
