Why is Vandana Shah, supposedly a Lawyer, wearing that Nautanki dress that Celebrities usually wear? And why is she wearing a Frock? OMG! That's ridiculous!
A मोटी wearing a Frock looks like a Cartoon! 🤣
There is nothing wrong with Dowry custom itself. Problem arises when it becomes kind of an “extortion” by the Boy’s family from the Girl’s family. This “extortion” has criminisalised the normal custom of Marriage resulting in horrific crimes.
Point I am trying to make is that ladies (even if unemployed) should also contribute financially to the running of the marital home. How much her contribution is, is better left to the parties concerned and also depends on the financial status of the Girl’s family.
The logic behind this is simple: When any 2 people live together under the same roof, both should contribute financially for the running of the House. If one of them deliberately contributes little it will surely result in Bad Blood (unless the other fellow doesn’t mind)! Simple.
Why is Vandana so shy 1:26:48 of suggesting Sexual Exploration between couples? She said, "because it's a family show."
Such Prudishness is totally Out-dated and Unnecessary!
Strangely, in society there is NO such "prudishness" when it comes to showing or talking of gory Violence - but when it comes to Sexual matters, "it's a Family show"??????
What an Unnatural mentality?
Why you taking too much water
@@rajupatnaik7776 You can gauge her mind when she calls the spa woman the guy has relationship with a downmarket with her name “Devi” stressing it multiple times. Her hatred against Hinduism is so evident. Her upbringing from her downmarket parents may be the reason.
*I think I can tell u the truth.. I had a love marriage, with a girl whom I was in living relationship for 1 year. When her parents got to know they pressurized me for immediate marriage. Which I thought fairly justified. But after few months of marriage she started abusing and torturing my mother who was in bed rest due to paralysis (left). Coz she felt disgusting touching her or her clothes and food etc. First time in my life i saw my dad crying and begging her that"beti itna chilla ke mat gaali do, neighbors ke saamne humari bahut izzat utr rahe h roz roz. I took her to noida from hometown, thought she need nuclear family coz many times she demanded to shift in delhi. Here torture on me started. Now she has filed divorced and domestic violence Against me and my mom, dad, my sister and on 15 year old my nephew. Police used to come every other day and took my dad and my sister's husband in police station. Life became hell. THIS IS ACTUAL LAW IN OUR COUNTRY. A revengeful wife can destroy Men and his family*
sad to hear that, may god bless you bro & family.
God has already left this place dear.. Now it's this system and feminists who run this country.
Hii Suraj, I am very sorry to to hear to that and that's the only reason I'm still single and afraid to get married 🥺🥺🥺
Take the Divorce, do not pay her, tell her abuse to your parents to the court. Have a great lawyer, my blessings! It is time to remarry to an angel!
@@rudhisundar haha, in which world you are living my dear, from police station, woman cell to court, everybody is waiting to screw you and they don't leave a single opportunity to rob you. And wife is CEO of all this so called raasleela.
1. Don't take or pay dowry
2. Settle in your career before you marry
3. Don't live with in-laws
4. Don't let relatives interfere in your relationship
5. Respect and trust each other. If you can't, you shouldn't have married this person in the first place
6. If the relationship is not working for you, please be decent and part amicably, rather than staging a huge drama
7. Earn your own money. Don't feel entitled to anything you didn't earn
8. Plan and manage your own life. Don't expect help.
@@NarendraBhusan-ias see #7

8. Don't marry at all 😂
@@amitpaul7940 Wouldn't that be nice? But no, relatives and neighbors will harass you until the end of time 😂
I am staying with my parents and looking after them at old age . Don’t give a fuck to these crazy people
After being married for 13 yrs, here is what i understand. People change with time and age. We are not the same person that we were in our twenties, i know i am not the same. My tastes, my likes, my preferences have all changed over a decades time. So if that is going to be a reason for someone to get divorced, then sorry, no marriage will work. We will have differences and plenty of them, have to work our way. Its a lot of hard work but it is going to be the same for every marriage, first, second or more.
Unless you have some real red flags such as violence, abuse, exploitation, adultery etc, i think every marriage can be worked upon.
I agree💯
i agree too
100%
Wt beautiful reply🙏 appreciated✨
A lot of hard work?
Are you in love or preparing for the Olympics?
We have had at least 6 marriages in our family with zero demands. Family sat down to discuss how expenses can be reduced for both.
Baniya??
If anything we need to make small weddings a thing in India
After 30 years of my marriage, my husband dumped me and I have no future security and income support because I was only a housewife and now at my age 57 years to try to earn my own living. Thanks 🙏
Stay strong. Same with us. My father found a younger thing and left us
The law is meant to protect women like you but instead law is used by spoiled women to destroy life of good honest men.
The question is why law has failed to protect you?
You ought to have earned your own money
@@sangeetapatel296 NO I AM UNWELL AND I HAVE NOT WORKED. I AM GETTING VERY LITTLE DISABILITY PENSION WHICH IS NOT SUFFICIENT. I don’t have a House of my own to live. Thanks 🙏
@@grillsalad yes I have 32 years old only daughter, she has one daughter 19 months old and she is trying to separate from her husband and she has no financial security or she has never helped me financially and she will never help me either. She has no understanding of what grief I am going through. Thanks 🙏
My father in law looked at my mark lists and asked why I didn’t pursue medicine?I replied that was my dream but couldn’t crack entrance exam threshold . So I studied Law. I was 24 year old law graduate in 1996. He asked me immediately , If I can get enrolled in medical school now he shall fund. Such a wonderful person he was. I continued in my profession and got into a better place though, even after 27 years it is etched in my heart
So are you currently practising law or something other
@@abhaysoni926 I am a corporate lawyer , I am good at it
You are very fortunate to get such father -in- law.
@@desicat3563 sadly we lost him in 2012
Mother in law is there but she is a typical saas , so not so fortunate in that way
why wonderful? The man is obsessed with having a doctor son-in-law. He didn't consider law to be on par with medicine. You couldn't crack entrance. He was aware that it was not because of lack of funds. But he still wanted you to pursue medicine. That means he was just enamoured with medicine and that's very typical of indians😁.
"Pressure on women is too much, and men are just unaware that they need to ease that pressure." - We'll said, ma'am!
Umm... I think pressure is on both the sides. Like women being forced to feel like they are responsible for all the chores, nurturing and adhering to traditions. While men being pressurised to having a home, car, a good job and all that.
Let me tell you a story, in my neighbourhood there lived someone who did a decent job lived with his parents and earned a very good living. When he tried for marriage, he got rejected by the family of the bride. The reason, the bride's family said his package was not sufficient, and the funny thing is the man's income was thrice the bride's family income.
And this has not been the only instance of when I have heard of something like thos.
Thing is both of them are under pressure, but they never take out time to think from the other's perspective.
I am in Australia and here is a concept called no fault divorce which means any partner can say i just cannot live with my partner ( no questions asked ) court grant divorce in few months. thats it. TATA BYE BYE
What about maintenance?
Well that can be misused by so many people
Whaat😮
Loved the whole podcast, but i wished Raj could have asked more questions based on lower and middle class divorces, their scenarios of troubled marriage , rather than speaking just about divorces in extremely rich families.These all could have helped majority of people to relate in India.
In middle class woman is a loser. She turns into an unpaid cook, cleaner , housekeeper, over burdened, her needs totally neglected, away from her family & city, she is bullied. And if she is earning, even her money is totally controlled. And tremendous pressure from her parents as well to keep the marriage working. And in case , there is separation, the ex husband quickly get married but the woman mostly is not able to find a good partner.
I think it affects middle class women the most. The lower and richer women don’t care much about society either. Like my maid, she left her abusive husband in Bengal and is living with someone else in Delhi 😅. Her husband was a drunk and would beat her up.. she was married to him when she was a teenager. She says her parents died young so she was married off by her bhabhis at a young age who didn’t want to keep her. Now in her 30s she says she is living independently and doesn’t miss anyone - both her husband and son are abusive alcoholics. 😅 Also - legally, she didn’t get a divorce or remarry because she doesn’t need to.
Middle class logo ko only adjust karna hai simple 😅😅
Men or women doesn't matter
@@desicat3563 exactly 💯💯
True
When my dad passed away 2 years ago, my mum, a retd. government officer, chose to not wear bindi and any colored sarees just because she was scared of the relatives more than her own choice. I had to put my foot down to wear a bindi, she started with a small black bindi, now she has gone to wear a decent size bindi.. she looks even more beautiful now and makes me happy which makes her happy. Now she is starting to buy some bright sarees which she wears only in Bangalore with me where we live but none of our relatives. It's a start ..baby steps. She looks lovely as ever on color.
Just saying she is disrespecting your father's soul. She should be spiritual in her way of life.
Such a good son you are! U did absolutely correct.
@@rohitmehta1216how she is disrespectful bro. Wearing a bindi and colourful dress is wrong in any way. You mean after husband's death women should not do anything she likes, what do you think of women, we don't have any wishes likes dislikes, treat us like humans we can hav our basic rights
What about the widower ,does a man start wearing pastel colour clothes after her wife dies.Majority of men are likely to remarry that to in a shorter period of time after their wife dies.But a woman is disrespecting a man’s soul if she wears bright colours saree.I wonder when really like to teach how a women should behave ,would he be ready to follow the same .
@@rohitmehta1216 ugh small male ego
So, just for the ones who aren't clear with Thapad's plot. It actually explores the most normalized way of abuse i.e. domination, ridiculing, and manipulating one so much that it affects them negatively affects their psychological health. And I think people always talk about verbal abuse from an assault POV and this movie was an eye opener in those terms.
Thappad was actually a great movie for these reasons. I don't think it treated domestic abuse in a flippant manner at all. She didn't file for divorce for a while. She waited for her husband and family to realise what her husband did while she was also processing it (in shock). Once she realised that the apology (a true apology) was not coming and that almost everyone around her was normalising this behaviour and asking her to move on, it shows her mental struggle to see that if she moves on, she is also normalising this and this can become a gateway to an even more abusive life. She makes herself a priority and gets out of the marriage before it becomes worse.
One part that could have been better was that they could have tried to salvage the marriage but I also like that they didn't do that because of the guy's personality - he was so flippant about the abuse.
This shows how the "modern people", who think they are so progressive are still unwilling to punish the man and that's why the woman stands for herself.
Yeah... in my opinion she is stupid tbvh why someone should go in pain for years? In thappad she took stand on his first action which in my opinion was correct like how can he? Its like she is contradicting her own statement about being a feminist
I got to experience this from my mother in law mostly and my husband is an enabler
@@randomnessATTexactly I am thinking the same this movie is not about slap it’s about they didn’t even realise that man is wrong
Many laws that benefits only women are wrong the same goes for men case also dowry is wrong but remember alimony in divorces and asking for a government job groom by brides parents are also wrong
Dear Ms. Vandana,
Just wanted to drop a quick note to say thanks for teaming up with Raj Shamani on the podcast. Your thoughts on successful marriages and the real talk about divorces were spot on. As a 21-year-old, it's eye-opening stuff and makes me more aware of the consequences of a bad marriage, even if you've done nothing wrong. Appreciate the honesty and insights - it's invaluable! Really looking forward to hear from from you through your books and other works.
Cheers,
Sanjana

I loved the statement " relatives are like a death snail for your marriage" . So true.
In most cases it is the immediate relatives like sisters & mothers!
That might be true to some extent, but these days all are educated and everyone like to make good relations with each others.
*death's knell, not death snail.
"Death knell" in olden times was a bell ring to announce someone's death. Now it's a metaphor for something that causes heavy damage
I agree with no dowry.
But how is alimony fine then. Alimony is reverse dowry.
If it doesn't work out it doesn't work out why exchabge money.
This is an amazing conversation. I have got so many insights about the dark side of marriage and the positive side of marriage. The data she provided has only come from that much experience in this field.
I can really relate to her words. When my mom got divorced after her 1st marriage i was 5 years old. she ran away with me when my biological father tried to kill both of us because of dowry and I when I took birth he was accepting a son. She suffered a lot but her own family was not accepting her so she decided to leave her parents house and search her own identity. She was not so well educated so she was unable to get a good job but she worked hard and worked a furniture showroom to earn money. It took years but now we are a happy family
Sorrry for being a sceptic , did you verify all the things that your father did . Many women lie to alienate the child from father . Im not calling your mom a liar but im just saying you to verify .
@@rationalsamrat3247 i don't need to verify her i can remember a lot of things from my childhood and more than that I met my biological father few years back he himself expected that he doesn't want me. He is having an affair with his late elder brother's wife and i was a burden for him and he excepted that he was not happy with my birth and it was a mutual divorce just because my mother's family didn't want a police case in it and as he was somehow connected to my elder masi's family so to save her from her in-laws my mom didn't put a case on him.
@@khushisahoo7823 you know the full picture most cases childrens never know
@@rationalsamrat3247 janti hu that's why I love my mom and believe her strength
@@rationalsamrat3247now your just being denial
I think Thappad was a great movie wherein after getting physically abused, the husband never said sorry or realized he was guilty about what he did. Not taking responsibility for his actions and trying to manipulate her into getting back and then calling his wife crazy for a full custody of his unborn child was great context for calling it quits. Also, for the wife, not being heard and living with a manchild until she realized was projected very well in the movie. Just sharing my views hear. No hatred!😄
Thats how we fall, man says sorry and keep doing his shit or start other types of abuse like becoming distant, breadcrumbing, being manipulative then another 4,5 years waste and life goes on.I sm glad he didnt say sorry. That is why it was easy for a woman to move on.
I absolutely agree with you. I am with Ms. Shah for the most part, however I disagree with her on the thappad bit. The one slap is the red flag indicative of the fact that the man has a violent streak. And its a shame that she shared examples of women who endured extreme abuse and then they retaliated. Why must we be ok with that as in idea? thats an exact contrast to the modern world shes referring to.
Agree with everything you said except for the manchild part. There is no evidence in the movie to indicate that husband is a manchild.
Was just looking for this comment. Completely agreed. Even while Tapsee was pregnant, the guy wanted to take away the child as well and wanted to make a deal.. And Tapsee on the other hand made no demands just wanted a mutual peaceful divorce. And the guy was absolutely absolutely manipulative.. But ya, according to this podcast it seems like, they just forgot everything and every content of the film and decided to normalise a little bit of hit in marriage.. one thappad is fine. And the girl just overreacted. :) of course man.. 🙃 ek hi toh thappad mara tha, sabke samne.. Kya hai.. Bhul jaati.. Seh leti.. Adjust kar leti..
I swear the whole Podcast became meaningless and vague to me when they could justify one hit and on the other hand discussing dos and don't, rights and wrongs about marriages. Hilarious!!xD
Exactly!!
I think they havent watched the movie.
Because man didn't apologise in the movie, and the guy here is saying he was apologetic.
May be the movie was not made with some depth. It was not shown that why tapsee became so much different with one thappad. But i think the reason is simple. She was raised respectfully by her parents, and disrespect was an absolute deal breaker for her - which didn't came up before in marriage for her because it was an unsaid expectation from her side.
I think both of them have not watched the movie.
Love this lady! She has completely acknowledged so many issues, most women can relate to this. We need more ladies like her to speak up.
Acknowledge is not solution , staying out of marriage is solution 😂
Exactly 💯 @@MantuS-kl5rr
Many laws that benefits only women are wrong the same goes for men case also dowry is wrong but remember alimony in divorces and asking for a government job groom by brides parents are also wrong
Absolutely great podcast. Thank you for bringing in the most critical topic to the masses
It's better to be alone rather than be lonely in your marriage. I have been in an emotionally and physically abusive relationship and it takes great mental strength to come out of this.
This applies more to men. Loneliness is what makes them to go other women for solace. While we talk negatively about men, the women involved in those relationships are never bad-mouthed!
i loved her but she wanted a divorce... SO she got it.. She is happily married now and i am alone.. LMAO
yeah it is better to get pounding by abdul and become a shraddha
Yes
First off this only in North India and for uncultured North Indians on top of that, second if She's India's top divorce lawyer she must be pretty out of work considering less than 1% of Hindu Indian marriages end in divorce. I guess maybe she only works for Christians and Muslims.
I liked the part she said, bad-mouthing your partner is an absolute No. Wow, I think this is so meaningful. Stop being a victim and talk to your partner and move.
Depends, they can be horrible ppl too
I know of one where the man was not only abusive, violent but turned out to be a paedophile.And he wears a mask of respectability. So it depends on case to case.
@@lakshyavarshney9942 if they're horrible and you react in the same way then there will be two horrible persons remaining.
@Sanchana Mohankumar First try explaining and if you fail just declare your view and tell strictly that you will not compromise on that view. Give some concessions for them in one of their views in which you can't understand or agree. Mutual concessions should solve the problem. Ofcourse i don't know your situation but try is all i can say. But bad mouthing is never the answer.
@@shinigamiryuk2907 no , what if they were horribly abusive etc ppl?
I want to share a story of my sister's divorce. She did filed a fake abuse case against her husband but the thing is they asked for her hand 6 years ago forbidded her from doing job and once they got married after waiting 6 years my sister's husband left her with in laws for two years and visited them twice a year and barely ever called her. So much of her youth wasted as she didn't do job didn’t get married and was actually verbally abused by in laws and husband. My point is sometimes we hear woman filed a fake case but no one considers the back story which is equally unfair
Yes that is right context is most important
So you mean its okay to harass evil women? Men can do that?
What about the youth of her husband?
She destroyed his life by filing fake cases just to satisfy her ego.
@@divinelounge3733 not providing emotional and physical support and protection after marriage is also abuse, especially when you leave someone with abusive in-laws not caring for her emotional and mental health..
@@divinelounge3733 they are marrying after 32 🤣 and women at 25
Loved this video !! Very informative and insightful.
Very insightful conversation! But I don’t think you guys understood the underlying message in the movie Thappad. It wasn’t about a single slap. It was about a loving and dutiful wife who had kept on sacrificing little things all along to keep her husband and in laws happy. That too happily so! And that one slap she had to bear in a trivial moment with no fault of hers, made her question everything that she had been doing behind the scenes for years!! The slap was symbolical to the onset of tsunami of realisations that she might have otherwise ignored to just keep going wherever her domestic life took her. It was all that and not just a mere physical slap!
yup . That one slap showed her how much he disrespects and thinks nothing of insulting her in front of people . Why does he not slap anyone else in the crowd
He slaps her and not anyone else because she is not like anyone else but his wife and he felt he could slap her in that situation. If his wife caught him red handed in adultery she would have slapped and done much more to him as well although the situations are completely different. But to highlight that violence is part of human behavior although where one shows it, depends on the situation and circumstances. In the said movie the husband was completely wrong in displaying violent behavior.
@@AnoopKumar-zi9bm what made him think it’s Okay to slap his wife ??
@@wowser2153 Emotions and the perceptive value of the other person. If it was his boss or his father-in-law or say a policeman instead of his wife his actions would be different. While it is not acceptable to slap a wife, so is slapping one's child not acceptable, but mothers do slap (and slap hard with vengeance!) their child (which is not criticized to the same degree in popular culture, and the agenda of the movie was to popularize the narrative that wives no longer will suffer domestic violence). A policeman could slap a hawker for not paying his daily bribe. A driver could slap another driver during road rage. A govt. officer could slap a peon for not bringing him coffee! While the emotional dynamics between the persons in the above cases is not the same as a husband and wife, and violence is not legally accepted as a form of emotional outburst, human emotions do not conform to law, and burst out in different situations depending on what value one attaches to the other person and the consequences one feels he or she could face post the violent action.While it is necessary to control violent outbursts under normal circumstances, it may not be controllable under extreme provocation or similar situations. There would be no movie made where the roles are reversed and the wife slaps her husband as it does not fit the narrative the movie tries to build.
Agree,, thappad was not about one slap.. it was how she was doing everything in routine and keeping herself at last in terms of priority. It was if he can slap me for his failure today.. he can do more in future. When you should take a decision is totally independent of how much is the intensity of abuse..
Abuse is unpardonable whether the victim is man or woman
LOL good luck trying to find justice in case u r a man😂😂😂...indian laws particularly hindu marriage laws arre most absurdly gender biased laws than anywhere else in world.
Physical abuse is unpardonable, but mental abuse by a wife is her birth right. Her Mom is mom, Guy's mom's always a witch. Her dad is God, Guy's dad is Devil. This is the law of land. LOL
Absolutely True
I get threatened, abused and face domestic violence from my wife of 8 months on a regular basis. I have no recourse. I have never cheated, never stole , no dowry was exchanged, no pressure for her to work but I have to face the music. I don't think this woman ever wore the other shoes. People like her are a problem.
The fellow advocate seems to be a typical feminist, who handles only the cases of woman hailing from well-off families. If only she had paid heed to gross reality & sufferings of middle class males facing in the marriage.
She addressed a similar situation as yours in the video - think you didn’t listen to the whole thing?
Great episode ! Absolutely loved the rapport and points discussed. Can start a drinking game each time Vandana says ‘you know ‘ ! 🎉
One of the reasons people don’t cheat or make marriages work is the value system they have. Upbringing plays a big part. It is not shame not fear just simple value system.
@@vishsagi2011 thanks for kind words, I agree it has to be from both sides. Otherwise one gets being abused. Sadly the values are scarce these days. Now I understand why in previous days people used to enquire about the family rather than the boy or girl itself.
so true, these intangibles are not getting recognised
I completely agree to your point
no way, I have met very intelligent men, feminist's, very good upbringing, belongs to very good families, but cheats on his wife for his needs, they say that especially in the upper class societies, political families, men take pride in cheating on their wives with more than a hundred women, it's a competition among men. especially in Royalty of this country. now will you say the upbringing in Royal families is bad? let's stop this hypocrisy of Indian culture and blah blah!
Very true we are all the decendants of lord shriram our sanskar is the main reason
This is lot related to me. I lost everything including house and kids in divorce but came out strong and independent. I tried twice to make my marriage work but he was as****. He used me to come to this country. Lots of lies and physical and mental abuse. Every time police comes he tells I am mentally unstable and he is trying to calm me down.

I don't understand why women or men complain about their partners to be wrong 100% all the time. They see themselves 100% perfect. Why? If you're that much of worth like a Kohinoor diamond who wants to leave you fight with you or unhappy being with you? There must be the person with you expecting from you. You're not understanding your partner needs and just painting everyone same and following the same brainless agenda of society. Make yourself worthy and if you think you're that much worthy why anyone wants to leave you?? Think about it.

Such an important podcast for all women! Very informative. Thank you!
I got married for 5.5 months and after suffering an emotionally abusive relationship and mental torture from my husband and his family I came back to my parents house completely devastated with no confidence on my own but after I took few months of healing and started giving interviews and got the job and started earning till now it's been 1year of separation funny thing is that he never put the effort of calling or visiting me for onces. Because for him marriage all about getting physical that's it and that will never gonna change so I took the decision of divorce to leave that name sake marriage and finally move on in life as I want to have all in my relationship with someone.

All marriages are "luck of the draw". Those that enjoy a successful marriage think they are somehow more knowledgeable than others, whereas those whose marriages fail blame themselves or those around them and feel sad. But in reality, matrimonial success is a random event with probability around 0.5. Be it India, western countries or any other culture. Be it love-marriage or arranged-marriage or any other damned concoction, in the end its a lottery. Always remember this, and you will be happy.
So true

Most sensible comment
Very well said.
The man who is one of the founding members of alcohol anonymous association in our state said in an interview that he was a drunkard and even his parents had given up on him, but it was his wife's undying love and not blaming or mocking him even when she saw him at his worst that made him a new man. In his own words his wife was dealt the worst hand in marriage and she with her love and patience turned it around. Your words are a disrespect to such spouses.
Women should not move to husband's house to take care of his parents when husband isn't moving to their house to take care of her parents..Both should leave their houses and take care of both parents. Half the issues will be solved. Otherwise women deal with a one sided family after marriage. No one can love her more than her parents..
Better solution is don't marry each other and take care of own parents
@@yadavrahulsureshchandra8062 both can stay away from paremts and take care of both parents. That's what many do today which is working well for them and their parents.
you are correct but the most problematic root cause thing is that boys or girls are never taught about opposite genders from a very young age.
This leads to -
For example for women as to when earning significantly more is important criteria in your partner
men would expect something in return too which will objectify both men and women.
The right way would be that women should be financially independent and then decide to marry on their own terms. This would not only teach either person to understand how difficult it is to earn money but also to select a companion with right expectations.
Good Guys take care of everyone and everything because it is in their nature to do so
Anyways peace to you and please dont hate any gender ✌️
@@kishorenaidu3427 yes all women must be encouraged for financial independence by educating them and helping them to go to universities outside their city for job or universities..
If a man is earning the woman is also a homemaker. Without her the man can earn the way he is. She is already returning.
So she should stay with her parents and marry her brother.
This is such a mind opening podcast, for the first time I felt like someone validated my inner voice - because all my life I have felt like a black sheep for verbalising such issues and getting a backlash from my family saying that having such a mindset will not make the marriage work.

Please remain financially independent & have self respect enough to crush ego of the husband if he has 1🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
There are many good people who can become excellent companions❤️💕
Crushing ego is by force. It is important to develop an understanding. Many people who are totally unsuitable for marriage get married due to arranged marriage system - men and women both.

Ya, but y Actually love marriages also get failed 😢
Instead of crushing egos, which itself will impact you as well, focus on harm reduction and get out of any toxic place where you are not treated with respect.
There is a movie The Great Indian Kitchen and it deserves to be discussed as well. The movie gives the most realistic indian household reality

Thank God I was a permanent resident of Canada when my ex messed up our marriage only after 2 months of moving here. I was able to file a mutual divorce in Canada, didn't event go to court, got a divorce within 3 months, got it attested by Indian embassy, send it to India and quashed our marriage registration. I still decided to live in Canada alone, I dont have any family here. I built my career here. I bring my parents over when I miss them. Only when I go to Indian community events do people talk things behind my back, or talk as if I am missing something or disgrace me asking awkward questions or even try to barge into my home. Indian mentality doesn't change even if you are wearing Gucci - Prada and sitting in Pardes.. Very deep rooted is our twisted culture.

What if they turned out to be right? You would cringe so hard 😂😂
Amazing podcast 👍 m your silent appreciator
I completely disagree with their take on thappad 53:02. In the movie, I think ONE of the main points was that the guy wasn’t apologetic about his slap and she was expected to simply move on and forget about the whole incident. Moreover, taapsee’s character never initiated the divorce. When she wanted some time and left to stay with her parents for a while, he sent her a legal notice to return back home to which upon her lawyer’s advice, she filled for divorce. And she didn’t even mention the slap/domestic violence in her divorce notice nor did she ask for any money. She loved him but I guess she felt a lack of respect in their relationship when he didn’t even apologise. The character growth of the guy is also shown beautifully when at the end, he finally utters the word “sorry”, with a wonderful redeeming monologue.
I may be wrong but I feel they (the host and guest) haven’t really watched the film and are expressing their opinions based on perhaps only the trailer or poster or something?
Edit: Moreover, the movie showcases other female characters in relationships as well, providing different perspectives on the expectations of women and their experiences. The movie also showcases some good male characters who are loving and caring, and shows how people are capable of changing for better. I’m not saying the movie is perfect but would recommend one to watch it before judging/expressing their opinions 😊
I agree about the thappad movie that this is superficially made. But the idea of the movie is wonderful.
So true... I agree....
Very well written n it's true dear
Similar thoughts. She indirectly said one slap is okay or abuse is okay unless you reach a stage wherein it becomes unbearable any further.
Agree. Respect in a relationship is everything!!
Most important reason why girls dont go for divorce is their parents.
1. Parents condition their brain that u r a girl u need to adjust.
2. Parents make them dependent so much that they cant imagine themselves without support.
3. Ofcourse no financial security .money matters a lot.
4. Parents say even if u die die in husband house dont come back , just adjust.
My inference from seeing my mom and my cousins.
Thank you for this.

You REALLY NEED to REWATCH Thappad if you think it was on the surface.
They did give context.
The context was the man thought he COULD slap her because it was HIS right to disrespect her.
The VERY FACT that you both think slapping a spouse is "OKAY".
It's not.
He humiliated her infront of the entire party despite she giving up everything & doing every bit as a devoted housewife.
and since then scores of women use this shitty movie as a pretext to slap their men. Utterly disgraceful!
Best movie ever
It’s not a slap just on her face but on her soul 😢 pls watch movie and also see other women in the movie go through different situations nd how they dealt with ❤ absolutely fantastic movie
In Tappad it was clearly shown that it was always about him even his career,his success, even his apology was always about him,she realises it not because of Tappad but of what happens later ,she realises that she was just like furniture in the house
Great informative interview
Wonderful Conversation 👏🙌
The movie "Thappad" contained ample context that the prominent lawyer failed to grasp. The film showed that the partner was merely as a property and care taker, and hence treating the wife as an unequal entity within the relationship. Furthermore, the movie also depicted how the man believed he could use his wife as a receptacle for his anger, dehumanizing her in the process by that Thappad". To exacerbate the situation, rather than acknowledging his errors, he continues to mistreat her, driven by the societal pressures of an obligatory marital bond. The movie essentially attempts to convey the that a single slap is not permissible, and also simultaneously say that this very act, resulting from someone else's actions, serves as an unequivocal sign of the husband's severe mistreatment towards her. This serves as compelling evidence to her that she is trapped within an unhealthy and distressing relationship.
Yes..Exactly. She even asks in a scene if in her place his manager was there would you have slapped him? That one line was enough. Which explains he feels it is ok to slap his wife
Yes I agree, he never apologised and shown change in behaviour. Everyone around was also expecting Tapsi to adjust and let go. He thought just bringing gift would let go. M surprised two such intellect people couldn’t get the context right
Agree with all the points here, also the so called respectable lawyer here, is she talking about that the woman should only take action when the situation is severe only..is the character of Tapsee being constantly treated as an object or just a care taker of family is not enough?
I don’t think she remembers the movie well
I strongly feel the man and woman must be equal in a relationship and girls should avoid men earning more than them to stabilize that equality.
Tapsi in the movie signified that she ego was larger than the relationship. As a man, if I was in that situation, I would find it relieved to let the partner go that brings nothing to the table .. but the girl never leaves on the "equality" she preaches .. she wants the man's blood and sweat apart from whatever he posses !
A man will always be the provider and female the taker .. as soon as he marries! That's a fact !

It's not old days anymore, women need to produce evidence, bills for jewellery purchased and all that. I think both sides lose in the divorce game, men need not worry this much.
Girls please don’t get marry to spoil someone’s life. Same request to their parents not to force your daughters to get marry bcoz you better know what type of (🙎🏻♀️) you guys gave birth who is not going to settle easily. As we all know that government rules and regulations are not so supportive for men. On top of that brothers don’t get pressurized to get marry bcoz of your parents or girls parents. Make your decision wisely. Peace ☮️
Love to see some men coming out and put their voice out!
India needs more of them more than ever. Maybe they will push the judicial system to implement laws that are gender neutral and stop being biased against men.
Answer is simple.... dissolve marriage laws and the so called sacro-sanctimoinal aspects and replace them with yogic traditions
Marriage is for weak men 💔
Dear Men, Don't Marry, Marriage is a TRAP to Enjoy Life on Man's Money 🤑(Husband's Salary 🤑, Business Income 🤑, etc).
It's a TRAP to Loot ALIMONY 🤑 Maintenance 🤑 Property 🤑 Child Support 🤑.
Marriage = HONEYTRAP 😈
Make Prenup Legal 😈

Don't Marry & Be Safe.
@@hemangshrivastava9561Thats true. Earlier, married men were respected but now, they have become weak. I don’t respect them coz if you look closely, most of them are simps and tolerating bullshit from their wives.
I like her experience and candor! this woman should have her own TH-cam channel based on social issues, human rights, women progress!
She is too busy 😂 in Courts
She is too busy making money out of artificial misery

Nobody will ever talk about the mental trauma that women cause by their verbal diarrhea.
My brother actually fought with the entire family just because he wasnt interested in any form of dowry in his marriage. Our whole family was upset, but my brother made his point very clear and i am so proud of him. My dad supported him and eventually things settled positively.
Provoked is a mind blowing movie..even a timid woman can become vicious and volcanic when her
tolerance and patience cross over her limits..
Thank you Ma’am for educating us about the law and it’s pros and cons..❤
You don't need to know that before hand
Men have no laws for them
If you complain under any law
Men will suffer always
It is a true story. We knew about this case before the movie was made. A relative of the lady is our friend.
👍
@thezoldics7648 now just think what law can do to that man ROFL
@thezoldics7648It's good that our country doesn't have guns. We men are savages, we are the most violent species on this planet. Don't torment him while keeping him free. If his crime is heinous, just quickly end his life. Once he is in jail there are only two outcomes, he improves for better, or plots for revenge when he comes out.
Marriage is a partnership - just like you invest everything in a start-up and build a team over time a similar team work is required in a marriage. Probable reasons for failure can be lack of understanding of self and skewed responsibilities in a typical household. Introspection before settling down is key.
My investment is wasted. He turned out jerk. I brought to America, paid for his ticket, gave green card, got apartment ready. The time he landed at JFk, his face was like I killed his family. He was disrespectful to all my family members right from airport. He was educated but mentally psycho uncultured. Always abuse me physically, mentally and financially. I tried two times ands finally gave up. Die or leave him. So I chose leave. Very happy...
@@RI-wh3hz I am sorry that you had to go through this but happy that you emerged from it. I hope you are healing and getting stronger. Whenever you get a chance, would you mind sharing some of the red flags that you might have noticed before marrying this person? I believe it would help a lot of people to avoid situations if they know beforehand.
I don't understand why women or men complain about their partners to be wrong 100% all the time. They see themselves 100% perfect. Why? If you're that much of worth like a Kohinoor diamond who wants to leave you fight with you or unhappy being with you? There must be the person with you expecting from you. You're not understanding your partner needs and just painting everyone same and following the same brainless agenda of society. Make yourself worthy and if you think you're that much worthy why anyone wants to leave you?? Think about it.
Very good questions asked
Thoughtful interviewer. Kudos Raj Shamani!
