Yet Thinking Old, Backward!

Times have changed but, India is still there, backward. Not in the means of optimistic development around but the pessimistic entertainment on television aka the daily soaps attracting the adultery hood and making US think- “Why?”
In the name of development, the development is in all term and fields; from poverty to technology, from pen to writing, from talent to entertainment.
Thus, what I mean here is, entertainment is still the same while the others are aiming for a better future. Since the technology is in demand, from that time the same kind of unnecessary soaps are going on. But from that time itself 100 different kinds of television have been in market with 10 different qualities!
I don’t deny from the fact that these backward shows ultimately attract (MOST) us, someway or the other. But at times it seems that the limit is now crossed. Ekta Kapoor’s all shows are now exception because now everybody has given up criticizing about her n her creativity of misunderstanding and re-birth!

But apart from that, the backwardness still lie in some T.V. shows which really over frustatrates me! Like, there is a show going on: casting a husband married to two wives. From one wife he has four daughters and from the other he has one son. Both the wives are living in the same house, like a normal family does. On the top of it, the man gives more preference to the wife from which he got a son compared from whom he got daughters.
Now, the question here lies is that, there are people ( those are writers, producers, editors, etc, etc) thinking that today’s India too believes that according to the old custom man can marry twice and live happily ever after?, that, a son can do a job, have all the privileges, be the king, rule forever unlike a daughter who has only one work, be married reproduce a child that should be a BOY give to the prospective father, cook food and bla, bla, bla! ……….???????

I think, I FOUND the ore of BACKWARDNESS still lying in societies if India. Today’s most attracting shows make such an impression that it feels India IS developing YET the exploitation and backwardness are too growing…
