Sorry but I cannot post the direct link as I'm a newbie.This is a wonderful post and I loved it.When Dev was using the word feminist,everyone bashed him mercilessly without even trying to think or understand as to why he was portrayed like that...I was very upset by that.Dev only received bashing but this post is a beautiful analysis on that behaviour of DEv.People on this thread like JALK,Shavvi,Itlidevara,yyy are truly unbiased viewers and I would love to hear their views on that portrayal.Almost all facets of Dev have been discussed on this thread but I don't think that we have discussed about Dev using the word feminist so would love to hear from others on this topic.


Hello Bella.Thank you for liking my post.
Now when I think about it,I disagree with a few things that I wrote in this post back then.I had written this post during the track where Soha had refused to address Dev as 'Papa'.As the show went on,my opinion regarding certain points changed slightly.So yeah,I have a slightly different opinion regarding that track now but still,I had enjoyed writing this.This was my first attempt at trying to analyse Dev's usage of the word 'feminist'.

P.S-Commenting on this thread after a long time.Hope all my fellow members here are well and good.

Hi Jenny, good to see you again.
Bella, which epi was that?? I'll watch it again and then talk about it. Any excuse to watch a Kuch Rang epi on repeat mode, right??😆

BTW, Bella, I think Dev was pretty much bashed mercilessly whenever he opened his mouth.😛 After a point, it seemed like the man was committing a crime simply by existing but thankfully, there were quite a few sane ppl like the ones on this thread who could still see that both Dev and Sona were just flawed humans who both did their share of nonsense.

There are many episodes...I dont remeber the exact episode no but I'll tell u about them.
Dev called Sona a feminist when Soha for the furst time told him that she could not call him Papa..it was a scene where him,Sona and soha were standing outside bose house.
Secondly,when sona had come to know that Dev had deliberately taken the jewellery theft blame on his head,in the very next epi they fought where he callwd her a feminist.
Also,when they decided on the 7 day arrangement at ecah other's house he had called her a feminist.It was a scene where they were siting in the office cabin and deciding what they should do immediately after thay had stopped soha from going to kolkata...remember how Bijoy was running away with soha to Kolkata to keep Dev away from her.
I did not like the way Dev was loosely using the word as a taunt but still,it wasnt a sin that he deserved to be bashed so badly...as I said people could have atleast tried to understand and analyse him.Thankfully jenny did that.

Thx, Bella, will see them soon as I get time. I loved the post Soha calling him Papa track bcos it just brought out his pain so well.
And I just read Jenny's post on that link you sent and wished I had seen it bfr.
Jenny, I must agree with you on everything except Dev's reasons for calling Sona feminist. I think he knew her so well that he also knew that wud irk her the most and he took great pleasure in irritating her and just wanted to see her react to him. Bcos he was in that 'if I can't get her to feel something positive for me, negative hi sahi' mode.

And bfr I came to the last bit, I was wanting to ask you if you agreed that there are also women who blatantly abuse the feminism concept to pull off utter nonsense, increasingly so in recent times. And you answered that too.

Again, the word feminism is perhaps the most misunderstood and badly misused word in the universe. Pity is that all these psuedo feminists so totally overwhelm the actually beleaguered women with real, actual problems, like an alcoholic husband who beats her up and steal the money she earns or sophisticated big-man who is a perfect gentleman to the world but an animal with his wife in the confines of their home or the very, very common seemingly perfect husband who thinks that is wife is ayah, cook, bathroom cleaner, matron, etc that he has got for free, for a lifetime and since he earns, he is fully justified in treating her like garbage, no, in fact, since he has married her, he has been granted divine permission to do so.

Yesterday I was rewatching krpkab and found something that was really funny and interesting too 😆. Just thought of sharing it here.

In the episode where maami spikes the juice with truth tablet, after Sonakshi first takes Dev to his bedroom, and when she comes out of there, she sees maami. She has a conversation with her where she asks maami what she mixed in the juice. During that conversation Sonakshi says "aap is ghar ka bhala kabhi nahi chahthi thi nahi Dev ka". She also says additional things.

During Dev's remarriage track, when Sonakshi comes to Bose home from IN after Dev tells that he is ok with marrying NIsha, Bijoy tells her that he is happy that Dev is getting remarried. Bijoy also tells that he will dance in Dev's marriage. In reply Sonakshi says things like they will invite you and that the problems that she and Dev had was because of his dislike of him. And then she says "aap ne hamare liye kabhi accha chaha hi nahi".

Both these dialogues sound so familiar. And what I found very funny was that it is Sonakshi who tells these dialogues to both maami and Bijoy. I mean maami was a selfish and greedy person who from the beginning disliked Sonakshi and never left a chance to put her down. But Bijoy was somebody who "loved" and "cared" for Sonakshi, who was ready to put "her happiness" above everything. Yet she says very similar words to both these characters 😆 😆. And for me this resemblance was very striking. 😃

Shaavi but I think what sonakshi said was truth. Bijoy was never happy with this marriage, ishwari at least for his son happiness tried to accept this relationship though she failed but bijoy never ever tried accept Dev as his SIL he's only looking for sona's happiness in everything. So I think more than ishwari bijoy deserve this from sonakshi.

Suchi ,Shaavi

Was Bijoy ever happy with anything in his life ? He had problems with everyone and everything.

Dev was 1000times better father , son , husband compared to Bijoy . Bijoy was not sensible enough to understand who is good and who is bad .Bijoy deserved a SIL like Vicky
