Don't watch udariyaan so no comment on that. In MHRW the ML slapping his sister was maybe right but the no.of time he himself got slapped was wrong. He got at least 10+ slaps and out of those he only deserved 3/4 at max. He still gets beaten by his wife which some ppl find funny but reverse the gender and the same ppl will complain. That's the reason why some of us are against slap or any kind of physical punishment in itv be it on women or men.
@UL That's was the point I was trying to make. Both the parents as well as the child was at fault in this particular scenario which is why I felt the slap was unnecessary because more than getting angry and slapping him it was important for them to realize that they too were at fault. And that's why I liked how Pritam handled that situation. He understood both sides, made both the parties realize where they went wrong. Personally,I like that method better than getting physical or verbal.
Kabir was wrong with the way he behaved with Angad and so were Angad and soni with all their taunting about him wanting chicken leg piece for dinner.Let the guy have his food first then scold him all they want. Like I said before both Kabir and family are at fault and they both need to talk and realise things more than shouting or slapping.
@green like Pritam said in an earlier epi they don't see any problem in them but make him villain over everything 😆
@UL Yes that was one of the reasons why I left the show. The only place where I agreed with RR of mhrw getting slapped is when his FIL slapped him for defaming the FL's character by coming to their home in the middle of the night. There RR was absolutely wrong and he deserved it but otherwise the way his character shaped and was treated in the whole show was not really appreciable. I mean his own mother, sister and his secretary always found fault with him but they never acknowledged any mistakes which the FL did. Imo, there was too much of an unnecessary flaunting of the FL and I have observed it in every other serial which is why I quit all shows in the middle. To hear those flaunting lectures upto a certain limit is alright but it becomes too annoying after a limit.
@bb - Exactly, nowadays what is happening is that the MLs are often shown to be arrogant and rude which is considered as wrong according to the CVs yet if the FLs are arrogant and rude then they are supposed to be strong and independent according to the CVs. I don’t know why the CVs are propagating such wrong notions? Men or women both are human, both should be considered the same way and not one superior or inferior to another.
– Same way in this serial also when Pritam is arrogant and rude he is called a b*st*rd by everyone but none says anything if Amrita is arrogant and rude? Infact there is a striking resemblance between Amrita and Meera’s characters. Both don’t see their own mistakes but are too quick to shout and judge the men Pritam and Angad who are much better than them. I read somewhere that Meera, Angad, Kabir are the parallel leads. Well, I feel both the FLs of this show are similar.
– Recently Vishal Singh of Saathiya said in an interview that ITV is a woman dominated industry which is why the male characters always face inequity in most of the ITV serials. It has become better in current shows earlier in shows like Saathiya the male characters including the leads did not have much role itself. They use to stand and watch all the drama created by all the women in the show.
@bl I have a feeling we are of different POV there but I understand your POV and not just you majority think in that way while I strongly believe physical punishment yet not abuse is also required not only for disciplining but also for enabling a strong psychic strength of an individual especially at a younger age.
@bg Yet their mistake is not to be confused with the Kabir's both are different. Parents made a mistake but according to the good values and lessons they gave him while upbringing him, Kabir should not have chosen the wrong way out.
-He could have worked harder and tried to get job in a different company not blackmail his boss and get the job, so that slap was for Kabir's own criminal act not anyone else's.
@bg Yes Pritam's method was good but he acted more like a big bro not a parent and that is why he agreed later that Amrita also was right in slapping Kabir because after all what Kabir did is a crime and nobody can change that fact.
@bv Imo, Angad and Soni were not actually taunting Kabir, they were scolding him for his indifferent attitude. Agreed he is immature and carefree by nature and that's not bad but when he did such a crime and the family is in debt of 1 lakh all because of him the least he could do is that leave that I don't care no matter what attitude of his for some time, accept his mistake, eat and go.
-Imo, it was Kabir who taunted Angad saying that he never got a job out of his own merit but because of someone's recommendation and that was a horrible taunt.
