What's the difference between IPK3 and Pehredaar...? - Page 11

TV as whole is regressive. PPK is a one of the many shows on television that deserved to be taken off air. One of the main reason it struck a nerve is because they tried to pass off a marriage between adult and child as cute. The girl's decision to marry a child was declared as noble sacrifice by the producer, and things like honeymoon and suhagraat was used as TRP bait which obviously backfired. Indian audience have become desensitized to violence against women,but I suppose the involvement of a little kid pissed people off.

I wrote something similar here.

Though I agree that gul's shows are most regressive. Ekta's shows nowadays are mostly guilty of being stupid, she has stopped showing mistreatment of women for ratings. unlike gul,ekta has proper courtesy and good business skilss. Gul on the other hand is an arrogant fool with zero manners or any kind of business sense.

As per reviews, the hero's dad was a purohit, I guess thats the term used.. the heroine's family blamed him for theft of temple's jewels following which he wasmurdered.. the heroine gave testimony that she saw the purohit's wife flying which led to people proclaiming that she was a dayan and hence she was burnt alive.. The hero ran away with his little bro to be saved from the throng of people and when they caught up with him in train, he threw his bro from the train to protect him and is now back to take revenge against the heroine for her false testimony

I did not watch phulwa but the child marriage happened, and guy who married the child was a negative character. maybe because the marriage was not shown as a noble sacrifice? the problem was that the whole marriage between the child and girl was normalized or romanticized.

This is pretty absurd even for a hindi serial's standards.

The show recieved flak ever since the promos aired. a 9 year old putting sindoor on the girl then the girl getting overwhelmed and emotional raised a lot of eyebrows.

A trip fall catch scene was shown between deeya and ratan, and while it is innocent it was reminiscent of the cliched trip catch scenes between every romantic pair on screen. Ratan was shown falling deeya and taking her pics without her knowledge, these things really hit a nerve.

The BCCC only told the makers to shift timeslot, they did not ban the show. the decision to take it off air was taken by the producers and channel because they would not get desired trp's. may be sony could have waited until the leap to decide to take it off air or not.

the indian audience hardly protests against anything on telly, they protested against this and BCCC gave a decision. the audience never forced it to shut down the makers were not confident about trp's so really, fans need to stop blaming "haters"
