What Munir has achieved with Trump is a return to normal, ironing out the post-Abbottabad crease. The White House picture gives us insight into how Pakistan survives, occasionally thrives and thinks.
This may be a universal truth, so to speak, that this is a Male dominated society and women sometimes just get tired of speaking up all the time when we keep slamming stories that speak TRUTH. I don’t come from a rural background as I’ve spent my entire life in cities, but for more than two years I’ve been living in a town/village of Jammu. I’ve felt it in the air, I’ve felt it in moments of glimpses, how women are treated. 70% of our population lives in villages. Women can’t relate to the entire story, but they do relate to parts of it. I’ve had my share of stupid serials like Kumkum Bhagya, Nagin, etc. , but Anupamaa and Shaadi Mubarak are different. I understand you may have a different take on this, but trust me, I’m witnessing these two stories every day as my mom tries to stand up on her feet as we’ve started our own business while the society tries to beat her down every day.
Lastly, I cannot speak for everyone, but I’m sure my mother’s life story isn’t the only one. Namaste.
The sad part is that the people living in urban-metropolitan cities haven’t been there to witness the broken hearts in rural areas, where women are discouraged from standing on their feet. There is gender equality of some level in our country but it hasn’t ended—just their voices have died down during such a chaotic status of the world at the moment. Anupamaa is my mom’s story, and the story of every woman whose husbands have extramarital affairs, whose in-laws aren’t at all supportive, and her children cannot aid themselves without her (a wife may wish to leave her wife duties behind, but children? It’s really true that motherhood is all about being devoted to your children.) It is sad to see that people often ignore the on-going struggles of Indian Housewives and live in this fabricated modernity of India. The TV shows may be ‘EXTRA’, but the core motive behind it, portrayal of unfair treatment of Indian housewives, is in my faithful opinion—true. The man ego is fact, the tears are fact, the stories are FACT.

Patiala Babes that aired on Sony TV was quite different form this typical regressive shows. It actually dealt with the complexities of motherhood many a times – where Babita, played by Paridhi Sharma, is a doting mother to Mini, played by Ashnoor Kaur. Even though Babita and Mini had a wonderful bond of love and trust, it somehow got affected when Babita started living a life for herself. The notion that “a mother cannot be wrong” was challenged in this show and it portrayed the absolute reality of how mothers can be, sometimes, wrong. No character was perfect in this show, there were flaws in Babita, Mini and Hanuman (played by Anirudh Dave) too. However, unfortunately the show messed up it’s concept and started portraying Mini as the ever good daughter who is always sacrificial and right. Guess, the trp’s plays quite a bigger role in Indian shows and they can go to any extent for this. It’s such a toxic thing that even if a show starts off with a good concept and pays a little to no attention toward trp’s, it ultimately follows the conventional rat race. But sometimes producers and channels should understand that it’s not always about the trp’s; good content plays a large role towards educating the society and it is of utmost requirement today in Indian Television.
