Typical male chauvinism. The story has reached a point where the families of the bride and bridegroom are discussing shanthi muhurtham. That in itself is disgusting. To make it worse everyone seems to be interested in knowing the bridegroom’s opinion and no one is bothered to ask what the irl would like. The director has made it appear like its a male prerogative and the woman has no role in it except that she is an item of pleasure with no personal feelings and desires.
The director should try to show women with atleast some spine. Characters like Selvam and Mrs Selvam should be portrayed to show a little more courage and spine.
Otherwise the story is a good family entertainer. But a lot of people watch these serials and may consciously or unconsciously pick up ideas from them. Care should be taken to depict ideas that are politically correct.
