Kanak a "Special" Widow ? - Page 3

You are right ratna ...before the society the family comes in to the picture ...if the family itself follows such double standards in case of DT there is no point in blaming the society ...DT being a respectable man in the society considers widows as unworthy people obviously kanak wouldn't hesitate following his path for he wont go against her...Her mil is snubbed again so kanak thinks its alrite to do what DT does and the fear has slowly vanished away.Edited by pearl100 - 8 years ago

money and status is everything in our society...sadly, that is how superficial most people are.

Patriarchal society is to blame for  the plight of widows, the caste system, set up by rich brahmins who looked at their own benefit, and also conservative and superstitious women are to blame who cause distress and humiliation to other women.

Totally agree that it is women who will have to fight for women and yes men like Viplav who accept women for who they are and not their label .

One would think that the tables have turned with Kanak being the widow and Dhani the suhagin ...she would have an upper hand. But Dhani being subservient can never get that respect from Kanak till she stands up to her.

Her reply in the kitchen yesterday was perfect and Kanak was shaken ..only that it was meant as a One time Plan . People like KAnak can never be won over by whispering sweet nothings.

Exactly...
Brilliant post.
