i hate agnipareeksha & Sita abandoning track no matter how much anyone justifies it..the best interpretation of it in kalyug was in the movie "lajja"..tht was hilarious..Sita asked Ram , you too stayed without me for 9 months, i will not jump alone in this fire, you also jump with me 🤣

if women have to bear these kind of men then the reverse is also true...i, being a woman, don't hesitate to admit it 😆


But you know what Charu...in the same Ramayana, they showed the woman going for Test of Love. It as Kaikeyi's demand from Dashrath,

Kaikeyi was excellent charioteer and helped Dashratha win over a victory over his enemy. So as a woman of some skill, Kaikeyi sure had an equal opportunity like the man she married.

See these are the layers of that literature that makes you still keep the text with you rather than discard it. Kaikeyi was fire-power as compared to SIta. And Valmiki goes to show various reasons why Kaikeyi did what she had to. In the same token, we will be shown n number of reasons why RK and Madhu did what they did.

But then it is ultimately the MUSE who decides, when he brings on the FATAL TWIST that ruins the FEEL GOOD atmosphere we had got used.

My sister once made me watch this movie and I am struggling to recall that...a movie about an actor/writer and a child, as both are in the hospital recovering ...how the child makes the writer tell a bed time story to her. He is a bitter man and always brings bitter elements, but then the child who is imaginative, always asks him about something beautiful...and the writer being selfish still keeps on bringing bad ending, but finally giving into the child's mind and changing to suit the story to her imagination. I really forget how it ends...but what stayed in my mind was the discussion between the writer-actor and the Child. The Child was being his Muse. And it reminds me of the Movie Navrang also...the discussions with the Muse help him write poems.

So in essence...to stop my straying and ramble...what I am trying to say is...they could have avoided this kind of bad twist to get the pain...but there is that wishful infliction by the writer itself who plays with viewers mind. And if our reaction is strong enough, they get the message what they have to do. So inadvertantly, we too become the muse for these soap writers.

I think I talked too much...I am going to zip my mouth and head now. 😳

LOVE this post SD!! Plus ca change...

I did see Sita Sings the Blues earlier but didn't like...maybe my stubborn loyalty to the Charitmanas kept me from having an open mind. The one thing that surprised me more than anything else from it was how very little the Indian born discussants knew of the stories...some of their comments made me😕!

Khair - your discussion above - 👏⭐️👏 I love that you bring up all the ambiguities. No one is safe - we women are no saints, either! Rather than running for cover, I guess we should just all get out there and muck it up.


I am coming out of my "finger on my lips" mode so soon. Forgive me please... But I can't stop myself from wanting to answer it. 😳 😔Please...

Bhakti,
You know even my sister didn't like Sita Sings the Blues. I agree there is lot of stuff that is coming out of an American mind not knowing the Indianness behind it. And yes, I have to say, that I kept myself open to be forgiving enough. You know I have married a Russian...its not that a great of a feeling to be severing myself from my culture. First off I already feel I am living in exile by staying away from my native country, then I marry a person from totally different culture. Half of the time, my mind is like...you look..one day I am gonna go back to my own country. I don't know what will happen in future. But this feeling certainly creates a lot of conflict to accept my new life as something glorious. However, my rational mind tells me "I need to accept, to imbibe..."

Everyone takes the term American Born Confused Desi as some comic term or a category. Agree it is a category. Nevertheless it is a reality. It would be difficult to understand how an uprooted person adjusts in new society...only a fellow uprooted person can understand that.

The key to this dichotomy is like Dipali said the other day (although in perverted sense) ...Har kisi ko Mukkammal Jahan nahin milti" But then, people like these ABCDs or rather transported persons, they still try to keep their culture intact. Isn't that feeling in itself great ?

This Indian but America born woman, is trying to find a meaning to her broken marriage. She chose to go back to her roots, Indian text and in whichever capacity, it made sense to her, she found a vent to her grief. That is beauty to me. It is lamentable that facts are not all right...nevertheless this expatriot is not that much wrong in committing errors unlike compatriots of Indian soil, who have started forgetting their roots. I really doubt today's kids are taught anything in the school about their roots.

Again not asking anyone to like it...its appreciated enough that you chanced to see the movie and you voiced your thoughts as well. For it is always right to call a spade a spade. But then, cannot ignore to see how the thought and analysis works in the mind about roots for an expatriot. It shall further help you in life to accept change as more and more twists come in life, that you may never have thought of. Like I never thought I would be here and stuck. 😆

@Shri - don't know why but just feel like sending you this 🤗 because if I had been able to be there with you in person while you write all these amazing beautiful things that would have been the first thing I would have done.

My comments on reading this thread..

The no passion kiss was what made Rishabh angry and suspect Madhu of loving RK.. 🥺

Originally posted by: Gurtiluv

there saying that the dialogue "tumare rival hero ne mujhe contract diya hai tumhe marne ke liye aur mein sirf tumse pyaar karne ka natik kar rahi hu" foreshadows the new entry coming to kill RK. but I dont want Madhu to turn into a serial killer.

Too late.. She killed Rishu, RK & Rishabh in one second.. Damn.. I am impressed with her..

The man who she claims to mean the world to her was standing there and asking for her hand, and she was thinking about Radha and the rest of her clown clan.

If she had, we would have understood what what 'Duniya apni mutti mein' looks like.. 😭 Instead she illustrated for us, 'Duniya apni dimaag mein'.

Alas, they fell in love without knowing each other. Ab bhugto !!!

Dont know about them, but we surely are..

true..but a misunderstanding has to be a MIS UNDERSTANDING 😆 😆

Now we know the real meaning of the word: Misunderstanding.. He couldnt understand the miss and the miss couldnt understand him..



Page 17 onwards made me understand what this emoticon really means..

Soundarya,

Read this.

In his anger about Madhu loving RK and not Rishabh, will Rishabh make RK give up acting? Now that I think about it, there was no passion in the kiss that RK-Madhu shared. So why not develop this into a two jodi show: Rishabh-Madhu & RK-MB? We viewers will be very happy because we get to see two jodis. Cant the CVs come up with better ideas?

    Just give them different clothes and get up so that we can identify which jodi we are seeing on the screen when they come up.
