First of all Sourav ji welcome to DM!
yes yes.. serials inspire women a lot!
They inspire women to that extent that they become
1) More foolish
2) More superstitious
3)More sentimental
4)More revolutionanry
But do these things happen in real world! Are the
women so impractical! The simple and serene issue
of a simple woman loving a simple man is shown will drastic and sadistic
twists! Ekta's heorines are unfortunate women..who love someone,
marry another..by the time they start loving that person,that person dies and by that
time this heroine will be pregnant and this will be a widow..
again this woman gets aborted..by the dirty villans...again she meets another person..this is athird hero in her life
marries that person......after some years divorce....and again marries the first hero....
these are the typicla ekta stories and heroines!
Are the real lives of Women so filmy ? Can any woman rural or suburban woman identify with the characters in Ekta's serials?Are the woman so immoral?
For a normal balance minded girl/woman she loves a person and tries to get married to that person only and even after the marriage..she loves
only the married fellow...unless and untill that lover/husband is a moron or sadist...she is not that immoral....as depicted in these Kekta serials and by God's grace
Indian society is not that degraded that a woman loves somany people in her life
in such a tragic manner......unfortunatley only the personal aspects of the woman are dealt..professional life is not dealt!
The way the young heroine is subjected to abortions,
widow hood is really tragic.....these issues really depress the people who really undergo them in real life!
One more thing... the relations are overhyped..
The relation between Sas-Bahu ,Nanan and Bahu are really
pitiful....
In some serials the sas is shown in a tragic manner...
A sas is a Sas but not a mother or a devil.. they are really depicted in impractical manner in thse serials
fortunately my folks are balanced people!!!
Even the nanan and bahu relation is also shown in very dirty manner.....as if the nanan is the replica of the evil sas.....which I really wonder if it is real!
ONE THING I LIKE about EKTA's SERIALS is that THE HEROES are BRAINLESS MORONS.....
which we don't find it in real much..so better enjoy that in the serials itself..
Replica of Infidelity is Prerana of Kasauti Zindagi ki
Replica of Stupidity is Tulsi of Kyun Ki sasBhi Kabhi Bahu thi. and Bani Walia of Kasam Se
Brand Ambassador of Youth is Parvathi Agarwal of Kahani ghar ghar ki..who inspite of being a dadi...is very young...
Driving the point home Ekta's characters are too modern..too traditional and they are too abnormal or too down to earth...none of them can be mapped with
any ordinary balanced Indian woman...they are not source of inspiration..but they are source of depression for the men whose women watch those serials daily
from evening to nite...even mid nite..
Cheers,

Now a days i think Reality shows influence a lot to yongsters.......Its true that Serials also do influence n inspire peoples.......esply some young people identify with certain characters, situations n values, distance themselves frm others check out how characters behaviour works, or how they themselves would behave in corresponding situations.๐But in the busy life kuch tho entertainment hona hey na so let them watch n enjoy ๐

Well-said Mythili!
But I wonder how did they test that...it could just be that the word is getting around and women are learning more through other sources..I don't understand what kind of test would be performed to see how decrease in fertiity is related to watching ekta's soap operas? Unless, the women are watching way too much t.v. and won't look at their husbands anymore๐

well said! I couldn't agree more๐
Myth Di, it is plesant to see all the anger towards K-soaps being vented out in this thread ๐๐.
I found your post entertaining as well as enlightening as I am a little disconnected to K-soaps right now. But it's good to know that Prerna continues to be infidel and Tulsi continues to be stupid ๐... Just like many people here, I also fail to understand how these women could be inspiration to any darn person.
[quote=mythili_Kiran] they are not source of inspiration..but they are source of depression for the men whose women watch those serials daily

Arey even men are submerged in these soaps. They also stay up with their wives till mid night just to find out what Kashish and Tusli are up to. ๐
Edited by rutumodi915 - 16 years ago๐คฃMyth , you don't like JW anymore?
I left Jai walia ,Armaan.....long back...right now...that the crush list is updated with the film actors like AB Jr,SRK and John!
Jai Walia is poor ! Oh! Earlier he was a successful,stylish businessman..now he is ordinary father with two children..with no work๐!
This reminds me of the immense changes in the financial status of the serial people..all of a sudden they shift into a poor house from mansion...seems these people don't know basics of savings....they can atleast take help from financial experts know๐!!!! BTW these people can sign any documents without seeing them and they become poor all of a sudden๐
But I wonder how did they test that...it could just be that the word is getting around and women are learning more through other sources..I don't understand what kind of test would be performed to see how decrease in fertiity is related to watching ekta's soap operas?
