I never said they are bad people.
I particularly dislike men like Sanjay Kapur who moved from one wife and kids to another wife and kids, abused second wife also and slandered her in media in a messy divorce and moved on to a new woman. Is it so easy to leave 2 wives and 2 or more kids from previous 2 marriages?
I do not care if I sound harsh for these rich crorepatis dumping wives and kids like old cars, still being abusive.
Or the drama when someone like ex wife of Raj Kundra bashes Shilpa publicly and blames her for breaking her marriage.
And I am sorry if it sounds offensive but I have no sympathy for likes of Kamal Haasan and Aamir Khan who have dumped women (wives and live in partners) and kids with those women so easily over the years. I can only wish luck to any woman who agrees to be third wife or nth live in partner/affair of these types of men, given the hard work and emotional labour she will have to do and still have no guarantee of loyalty and commitment from these men.
I have given very specific examples of kind of rich playboy types I was glad Katrina, Anushka, Deepika, Sonam stayed away from.
Marriage is not a joke. In that sense I again repeat I respect Salman Khan for not marrying and dumping wives and kids one after the other. He broke off when he did not want to commit. Never went to wedding altar nor kept women in legal loophole the way Boney kept Sridevi.
Boney never legally divorced Sridevi. Imagine the trouble Sridevi would face if Mona had decided to go to court challenging validity of Boney-Sri marriage as first wife is still alive. Legally Sri's marriage is invalid even today.
Hema had to face lot of backlash from Dharam's family when she decided to marry him. He mostly lives with first wife, kids with her and extended family in Punjab. Not much with Hema or her daughters. Such compromises are hard for anyone which is why Hema had openly and repeatedly said she would never let her daughters marry a married man or follow her footsteps in married life.
I am glad Kat, Deepika, Sonam, Anushka were saved from such drama and complications.
Anyway I get your POV and why you must have felt offended. Perhaps I did not make context of class of high society celebs, crorepatis clear in first post.
I clearly did not imply commoners. For commoners even first marriage is hard. Moving from one spouse and kids to another every 7 or 15 years is not easy for them like rich and famous.
Aamir for eg is someone who even refused to acknowledge his love child with British journalist Jessica Hines. I would not bring myself to say anything decent for such high society types who consider relationships and even kids something to take lightly, easy to move on or pretend it does not exist or leave moms to take care of kids while they move on.
So yeah, I will reiterate I am glad Kat, Anushka, Deepika, Sonam did not marry such men and have no such baggage to deal with.
This does not mean they have no possibility of challenge in own married lives. They can be cheated or divorced in future, they have to work on their marriage given the fickle nature of relations in high society. But they atleast started on a clean slate without possibility of being blamed for breaking marriages or taking a man away from his kids or their legal status in jeopardy as a wife.
I am relieved exchange was civil and both of us are clearer on what we wanted to convey respectively. Thanks. I understand your POV but I was not talking about general masses or divorcees in general among commoners.
