there is a saying in my language, paraphrasing here.
if you pick a venomous snake and decide to put it in your pocket, how do you not expect to be bitten by it?
so if arnav dragged khushi into his sphere of influence, he cannot expect to be not hurt by her reactions.
khushi is flawed no doubt, but what arnav has done to her is nothing short of criminal under any court of law. now, i understand this is drama, so I will take it for the sake of drama to allow the story to move forward. But in reality, what Arnav has done to khushi is a grave injustice of massive proportions and not at all comparable to the fact that khushi hid shyam's truth from him.
Had he not dragged her into his house, she would not be in danger of facing shyam day in and day out. right now, she has no one to protect her, in her own house she had atleast buaji.
so lets not mix reality and fiction. in fiction, i will watch this for the sake of drama. But in reality, khushi's faults pale in comparison and ASR's forced marriage is criminal under Indian Penal Court and Hindu Marriage Act. Lets not gloss it.
No offence meant, zoha, I hope you understand. you know i am a sensible and reasonable person, but i dont want the fictional comparisons, understanding and/or justification of ASR's actions to gloss over the reality of it.
Here is an excerpt from Human Rights commission :-
JUST FYI - For drama's sake we can ignore the following but lets not forget what human rights laws have to say about it
http://www.forcedmarriage.net/media/images/FMGuidance-for-PoliceOfficers_108.pdf
Forced marriage is an abuse of human rights. "Marriage shall be entered into only with the free and full consent of the intending spouses."
(Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Article 16 (2))
"A woman's right to choose a spouse and enter freely into marriage is central to her life and her dignity and equality as a human being."
(General Recommendation No. 21, UN Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women)
I understand Di,, N I am decent enough to respect other's POV's. Agreeing or disagreeing is totally a different story! n who knows it better than u regarding agree/disagree philosophy😉
My Point here is If Arnav is flawed then Khushi is no angel either! @ red, u kinda accept that! Forced marriage or making her sleep by the pool side is something even I will disapprove, bt Y people just keep pointing at Arnav?
I think Khuhsi Hiding Shyam's intentions is only landing her into deeper troubles, But people say Khushi is never at fault,..so I kinda called off the discussion saying if she is never at fault,, then she is an angel n my discussion was regarding two flawed Humans, (one more than the other)
Also if Shyam had forced her into such a marriage,(secret one) with the same point taking ad\vantage of his position as damaad ji, she would have married him? I dont think so,,,She knows Arnav, n loves him, she gave into it though reluctantly .
Had she told abt it to Arnav in the first place , n Arnav didnt believe her, then it was totally Arnav's fault. But now by hiding some one's crime, she is a partner in crime!!
N who is at the receiving end, she, herself, she should understand that!
