Argument by S Shrivastav to ban :
The serial  Pehredaar Piya Ki on Sony TV shows a 10 year boy married to a woman. who is much older to him.This is obnoxious and perverted and will severely impact impressionable minds of children. As a mother and a responsible citizen i am aghast and disturbed.

'Pahredaar Piya Ki' is now days subject of discussion or controversy because it deals with  the theme like 19 years girl married to 9 years boy. So, many people opine that it create wrong images in mind of children and misleading them where some believe that it is progressive one as many people commented under videos which linked here that if there is 19 years old boy married to 9 young girl , no one have any objection as Lord Krishna did but while girl do, it's wrong. So, there are both Prose and Cones of this serial and many see it better than Sas- bahu serial that it doing something our of the box and entertain us. But Smriti Irani goes against and want ban this. This tradition of banned things at some point repressed creativity.

    Respected Sir,

    

 “Online Discuss on Serial   Pehredaar Piya Ki “

                                     Nowdays we are hearing the news that a 9 year old boy is doing romance with 18 years old girl . who is his wife in TV serial, The serial is telecast on Sony TV and the name of serial is Pehredaar Piya Ki the serial is getting negative reviews from the audience till now.

                                    But the maker of the serial has another view on the serial and they think that they want to change the thinking of Indian society. who is dominant by male, They want to tell the audience that even women can also be the protector of the house.

                                  Actually the story is very different they both married not because they love each other or their family pressurizes them to marry. But girl gave the promise to the father of the boy when he was dying that She will be protector of the boy for life time.

                                 That’s why she marries to the boy and became the protector the boy or we can say that Pehredaar Piya ki.

 

                                 Indian Society Child Marriage it has been banned But Come Back Again, We can say , Because the Society They are looking only that perspective.  “Bannend  never helps anything “( For Example, Eating apple by Adam , eve.)

Respected Sir, 
               
                Every coin has two sides in the same way every matter has light and dark side, Progressive and regressive. Recently the new serial "Pahredaar piya ki" become talk of the town for it's theme. 

Let's look on both the part progressive and regressive. 

# Progressive :

               "Manliness in girlish hearts". If daughter is grown up in the same way like son then there is no difference in their behavior. We have such example in our myth "Mahabharat"  that 'Chitrangada' mythic character who married to Arjun was grown up in such way by his father that she herself forgot that she is the woman. Man and woman are same by birth but what makes them different is the way in which they grown up. Stereotypes minds are such conditioning about the role of  daughters. 

                What makes it controversial is a name of the serial "Pahredaar piya ki". if it was named "Pahredaar sajni ka", and if adult man of 18 years married to 9 years girl then people would not have disagreement. but typical mindset can not see woman as a protector. 

                 We have long history of woman as a protector such as "Razia Sultana" who was far more better as a protector than her brothers. "Rani Laxmibai" who protected her kingdom after death of her husband. Matriarchy is the fact of history. And how can we forget "Indira Gandhi" as a political leader of India.  Woman is able to handle given situation. 

                Attached lines in the mail clearly describe that Woman are able to perform the role of protector. 
 
# Regressive :

                 Serial highlights the burning issue "Child marriage" in India. it's regressive side of the show. Whatever reason may be there  behind marriage but this should not be encouraged. 

                  Though it is prohibited by our constitution still child marriages are going on in India. Adult  people arrange marriage of children who don't even know the meaning and depth of marriage. 

# Conclusion : 

                  It's nature of literature to portray both the things good and evil. imagination is the essence of literature. but other things rest on us that what to take and what to ignore. 

Thank You.

Respected Sir,

‘Peheredaar piya ki’ – Title itself suggest that pehredaar means protector And as it’s story line suggests that Diya marries to Ratan for the sack of his protection from his enemy who are his own family members itself. Now the question is weather it is regressive or not, I don't found any accurate reason to consider this serial as a regressive one. People are accusing that serial is showing  marriage between a young girl and child. This is not the first time that this kind of TV shows are coming. 

Before this also many shows were having this kind of concepts; say for example ‘Gulal’(star plus ) in which they have shown ‘Diyar-vattu’ between young girl Gulal and a child boy kesar. And one more example from colors Tv show ‘Balika vadhu’ which was famous also. there was  the  concept of child marriage. Poeple believes that this serial should be banned because it will have bad image on their child’s mind. Now there are many shows which comes on Tv which are vulgar also. Television never have presented goody goody things always. So one or other way their child will come through something. So you can't banned everything right ? and banning would also not going to help. Though I'm not telling that this serial is progressive because now a days in every serial we will found that it is woman who is solving all problems, who protects her family,  who is independent and taking care of everyone in family, Diya’s character is also portrayed like this( protecter of Ratan) which is repeating the same concept; so there is nothing which we can call progressive. 

( This is my own PFV, neither I'm   supporting anything nor I'm in favour of Anything)

Thank you.

“Pehredaar Piya Ki” serial is created by Shashi Sumeet
productions. This serial is broadcasted in Sony T.V. Nowadays this
show is more controversial in the society because of its story.
Storyline of this serial is that the19 year young girl marry with 9
year little boy after his parents death for protect him towards his
own evil family member. Different of both characters ages is
problematic in this show. One is 19 year old and anther is only 9 year
old child. We have see so many things happen after coming of this
serial. Many people request to ban this serial because of theme of
child marriage. It is not come first time in television it has come so
many time for example serial ‘Gulal’ (come on star plus). In this
serial also show child marriage between Gulal and kesar in cage of
‘Diyar vattu.’ It was not problematic in that serial so way in this
serial it is more problematic? Here in this serial we find that Diya
become protector of Ratan from their family member. Before so many
years we have see that old man (may be 30 – 40 year old) marry with
small girl (19 – 20 year old) for their protection. So may be maker of
this serial has won’t to show anther view point and also they want to
change the thinking of stereo type mindset people. I have not
supporter in this show is ether progressive or regressive.

I came across this post. It tries to show that TV shows in 90s were far better than today.
Do you buy it's arguments?

One of the major shifts that took place on Indian television was one person who denoted an era of her own - Ekta Kapoor. Unfortunately for us, she struck gold with the concept of family shows being held together by a lead woman character. These women were created to tick all the attributes of some regressive ideal of the beti, bahu, biwi . The purpose of their lives seems to be to be sorry for everything happening around them.

Respected sir,
  
        This serial became talk of the town now a days. But it is depend on our own choice. Because each coin has two saids. Let's us discuss  the " pehredaar piya ki".

    # My views

               This kind of things , means chilled marriage is not showing first time on television serial or not happened first time but it is our past , it shows our culture and past tradition. And this kind of story is different from " sas bahu" serials. We can't accept it because women character present elder then boy. And if we think that this type of serial harm our culture or children's mind so why we blame only this serial, many program and TV serials came these are also not good. So we have choice , what we want to watch we can watch. Not need to banned.

For example :-   In India people still believed that man ( groom) should be elder then women (bride) 3 to 5 years age Different
Is necessary. Because people believed that elder man is symbolically represented the maturity. But now in Bollywood we find many example in which the situation is different, but in reality it is difficult to exaccpt . Everything is depend on our mentality.

Review of Paheredar piya ki


     Why we can say that about serial we don't know -about that no have axatly proof dislike to serial Director he was know that where he found new

romance with the childish and a young lady


Directo :-Amandeep Singh

Actor :-   Afan Khan play the role of (Ratan )

                 Tejswi Prakash  play the role  of ( Diya)

Story writer by Niranjan Iyengar


               



    In this sirial performance to childish Ratan and youg lady Diya that Shaw was  amazing because of the 9year old child foll in love with  Diya she has been already big then Ratan That camistry is not like a joke because that love is not seen the age any person is a filling of heart and making a love.Ratan is atract to the young beauty lady and then follow she and that time cocroch pass the near the Diya she seen cocroch and   afraid the cocroch at that time Ratan was kill the cocroch and save the lady

    Second point is Ratan has 9th year old It, it has a still to love his mother, it is inappropriate to love a girl with an older girl.is unfair of the sosity this sirial is making only for the romance between young and childish boy this matter is not like publc and to says about to ban and blocked the sirial becouse that  our nation is socio-cultural so is it not fair but one thing is more powerful then it everything is fair in Love

       o sirial

     That sirial like to the based on old Western culture so we see that sirial and what say in sirial see

                 

      This sirial is not based on child marraige because of only for making this sirial entertainment entertainment and entertainment this sirial is only Drama of the Actor and Actress Develops bringing out the best excerpts contained in his soul so I have progressive this sirial and this sirial most power ful and most of the sirial has a popular on starting period.

     This sirial is not on baesd the child marraige it is also like a child marriage but it not child marriage Our government is is prohibition act to child marriage not to be Drama and sirial bann So I have agree to the sirial is more progressive I fully support that the sirial is releasing continue

In just six episodes Pehredaar Piya Ki has been called everything from a regressive. To begin with, Tejaswi Prakash as Diya, an 18-year-old princess, is given the sole responsibility of Afaan Khan as Ratan Banna , the 9-year-old heir to a supposedly enviable Rajput empire, one that he stands the risk of losing his life over. Of course the only way for her to be able to protect him is to be his wife.I am not be the target audience that Pehredaar Piya Ki is even trying to impress, and frankly, neither are the rest of its critics. But as a viewer I have every right to be offended. Pehredaar Piya Ki not only sells stupidity in the name of content, but also sets itself as proof that we’ve come to terms with bad acting and horrible storytelling into the most meaningless situations.Earlier, shows such as Balika Vadhu have addressed the issue of child marriage in India. However, with her new show, Tejaswi assures that they are not promoting the social evil in any way.

“Over here we are not promoting child marriage at all or how beautifully our love story is going to evolve,” she says.

Diya takes the plunge.

"Online discussion on serial  pehredaar piya ki" 
Pehredaar piya ki is an Indian television serial. The show has courted controversy as it depicts  a 9 year old boy stalking  and wooing his caretaker who is double his age. Ans also in this serial child marriage happened but they are not promoting it. This kind of Marriage custom exists even now and it's based on that this show is made, society doesn't accept this kind of Marriage but media is targeting Pehredaar Piya Ki from the very beginning of the show and despite of all this, and the show is getting positive response from general viewers who have watched the full episodes and understands what's it about. The first two episodes of Pehredaar Piya Ki have aired and made us all truly believe that this is by far the worst thing that has happened to the Indian Television. Yes, Pehredaar Piya Ki might actually beat the logic of Sasural Simar Ka which showed a fly taking revenge from the vamps and villains as well as the numerous times Mihir came back from the dead.While all the previous shows tried to keep the content restricted to adults, Pehredaar Piya Ki took things further and portrays a 10-year-old boy aka Prince Ratan Singh as a chill boy trying to impress a 19-year-old girl with his charm and shamelessly stalking her.

Respected sir,
"Pehredaar piya ki"

 The title it self tell about the protection of someone, especially the protection of man by woman. We all know that in our society there where the man who always protect the woman, but in this case the woman was become protector of man. 

Every thing has two side to looking at good and bad. In such a way this serial has also two way to think and looking progressive and regressive. This serial was controversy because of its theme, the theme of the serial is the child marriage. So, let's look its progressive and regressive part.

  • In our India we see that there is always difference between the grown up of girl child and boy child. Girl child always grown up with the soft toys and boy child grown up with the hard one. So, from the childhood we accepted that the boy who is the protector of the girl. So, the mentality of society people is in a favor of man not in favor o woman. boy and girl both are the same by birth, but what make them different is the way of grown up. 
  • In the controversial serial"Pehreddar Piya Ki" we see that there were the story about 9 year old boy and 19 year old girl's marriage. If 9 year old boy marries with 19 year old girl then people would not have disagreement, but the typical mindset of society people can not see woman as a protector of 9 year old boy. 
  • On the other hand we look into our history. There were many woman who was also protector and taking part into freedom fight. The most famous example of Rani Laxmibai , who protected her kingdom after her husband's death. Other example of Indira Gandhi, who is a political leader of India. Woman also handle the situation in good way it is the prove that we see into our history.
  • Regressive looking is that the child Marriage is nothing but the deal between two families and two people, behind that children even don't know the meaning of the marriage. So, In some way and in some place child marriage is not good for society.
  • From this serial we know that whatever reason may be there behind the marriage but this should not be encouraged people gives bad image on their child's mind.
        conclusion: 
                          To conclude my point i would like to say that imagination is the   essence of the literature, but other thing depends on us that what to take from it and what to ignore from it. So, the thing good and bad both are there but what we see and how we see it also depends on us.
  Thank you....

Review of Pehredaar Piya Ki :

      As we know that from last many days this daily soap is in controversy. 10 year old boy married to 19 year old woman. After watching some episodes of this serial one question in my
that What is purpose of this serial.?  What they want to show through this serial. As many of us know that Smriti Irani has taken action against the show and many viewers has told to ban
this serial because they don't want that their kids to be influenced by such kind of TV serials. BUt one thing I want to say that I think we all have our own perspective and our own vision
so we can't judge any work or this type of TV serials.

                     Pehredaar Piya Kihas been called everything from a regressive cringe-fest to a creepy concoction of stalking and child marriage. The show’s makers have us playing right into their promotional trickery. What is being sold in the name of a unique love story is one of Indian television’s most bizarre plots till date, with characters so unconvincing that guessing the show’s trajectory is a no brainer

                 To begin with, Diya (Tejaswi Prakash), an 18-year-old princess, is given the sole responsibility of Ratan Banna(Afaan Khan), the 9-year-old heir to a supposedly enviable Rajput empire, one that he stands the risk of losing his life over. Of course the only way for her to be able to protect him is to be his wife.

 

I’ll give you a moment alone with that logic.

Why his parents, the fading monarchs, didn’t appoint a valiant senapati, or Diya minus the ‘wife’ tag, is something the show tries to justify, but does an annoyingly lazy job of.

Respected sir,
     I want to share my view on this serial. In this serial performance to childish Ratan and young lady Diya that show was amazing because of the 9 year old child fall in love with Diya she has been already big then Ratan that chemistry is not like a joke because that love is not seen the age any person is a feeling of heart and making a love. Ratan is attract to the young beautiful lady.This is innocent. 
                This serial different from all "sas bahu" serials. And other side we can't accept it because women character present elder then boy. And if we think that this type of serial harm our culture or children's mind so why we blam only this serial many program and tv serials came these are also not good, so we have a choice what we want to watch we can watch not need to banned.
          Thank you.

Paheredar Piya Ki....





Really hate T.V. serials! No creativity at all! All the serials have the same old cheesy stories and are watered down exponentially! When is Indian television going to launch something innovative and brilliant¿¿

Indian television industry should feel ashamed for showing such ridiculous concepts and exposing children to such crap...this is pathetic..instead of showing progressive thinking these shows promote how backward indian society is!

For us, this one definitely comes as another blow to the Indian Television, which has no great reputation, anyway.

After reading the arguments of both the petitioners, Divya S's arguments, who is in favour of running the show seems right. She has argued that people who has not seen even a single episode they want to ban the Show because of media has targeted the show and people see what they showed. But as she has argued there are lots of other things also. Shobha Srivastava's argument that it makes negative impact on children it is not reasonable. Plato has even objected tales of God saying that it also makes negative impacts on children's mind because gods also behave immorally. Can you ban that also. No. Then how can someone expect teaching from entertainment field? Most of the T.V. shows and films are for entertainment. And we can not expect teaching from them. It is the field of entertainment. Television shows or films are not for making people better. So targeting any specific serial saying that it effects children's mind, there is no point at all. It is their money and it is their product. If one like one can watch it if not one can go for their own choice. Nobody forces anyone.

   The serial “Pehredaar Piya Ki” does portrays a 10years old boy married to a girl of 19 years, here I question the people why do you find the serial hurting your moral sentiments? Why do you suggest your children not to watch this serial and on which ground do you find it obnoxious or aghast? Why don’t we remember those days when we were in support of these types of acts which were performed by the people of India with great pomp and show? And while you read these questions then you would think that at that time we were not so educated or not so capable to raise our voice against those acts, at that time also we did have our sentiments. Or now we can say that in today’s world we are not educated rather our sentiments are getting educated everyday.

       We are unable to accept this particular serial because it shows the relation between 10 years old boy and 19 years old girl, if it’s so then why are we supporting the daily soaps of Ekta Kapoor to get name and fame with every passing days? Why parents don’t stop their children from watching those serials, it’s so because parents are also blind followers of Ekta Kapoor’s daily soaps. Had it been today Ekta Kapoor’s one of the daily soaps then starting from the small screen television actors or actresses to parents everyone would had readily accepted it because Ekta Kapoor always portrays facts and realities rather than other Directors or Producers and she gives platform to every newcomers in the industry. Everyone is comparing this serial with Balika Vadhu serial which was aired on Colors channel saying that Balika Vadhu portrayed reality and this serial is just ashaming  the Indian society and culture in the grounds of portraying reality but are we all well-accustomed with each and every small history of India? The answer is a big ‘NO’ because we only see what we want to see and portray those things which would bring a bit of fame and attention to India from other country people.

    We say patriarchy has been eradicated from the Indian society, if it’s so then why we are unable to digest a serial portraying a girl protecting a boy? It’s so because till today from our mind patriarchy has not been eradicated totally that’s why we are able to find many loop holes in this serial. Women are still not empowered in India in its true sense. If we can have patience for Ekta Kapoor’s daily soaps years after years so why are we unable to have patience for this serial and why can’t we wait for the story to unfold in the upcoming days? Last but not the least when parents want to curtail this serial than they should start from the very root that is from Ekta Kapoor to all the Hollywood and Bollywood movies which children watch with great enthusiasm with their support. It’s not always necessary that if one finds a loop hole we all should come to an abrupt conclusion without giving a second thought. Indian media always jumps to a conclusion for the purpose of name and fame without thinking for the Country and its people. People educate yourself not your sentiments than only India would progress in its true sense.

Respected Sir

   "Online Discuss on Serial Pehredaar Piya Ki "

               Pehredaar Piya Ki” serial is created by Shashi.  Peheredaar piya ki’ Title suggest that pehredaar means protector and we can also found in this serial  that  Diya marries to Ratan for the sack of his protection The serial  Pehredaar Piya Ki on Sony TV shows a 10 year boy married to a woman. who is much older to him.

         This show is more controversial in the society because of its story. Storyline of this serial is that the19 year young girl marry with 9 year little boy after his parents death for protect him towards his own evil family member. And also in this serial child marriage happened but they are not promoting it. society doesn't accept this kind of Marriage but media show this kinds of things and Many people request to ban this serial because of theme of child marriage but it is not first time came these kind of serial but many time came to in show for example " Gulal" , " Balika Vadhu".

       So we can't say that it is a good serial or bad because of each coin has two side, we can see in the good side o we can say that this serial has want to show another view point and also they want to change the this idea and in the nagative side we can say that this serial child marriage happened and our society cannot be accept this idea because of this is a nagative aspect in our Indian culture.

Thank you...

Respected Sir, 


Pehredar piyaki had received a lot negative attention ever since it first aired on TV. The show's plot deals with a bizarre love story of 9 year old boy with an 18 year old girl. Many well known figures like smriti Irani,Karan Wahi etc; filed petition against the show demanding to ben; thus BCCC directed this channel to move this show from 8:30 to the 10 pm slot, So that minors do not watch it. All the team members of show tells that they does not promote child marriage. But  this show was banned and now crew and cast of this serial is coming again with new ideas and new story to entertain people. 

So here I'm not in favour of it as well as not against it. This is 21 century and people of this century knows very well about their good and bad thus i think we have to educate people rather than banning movies or serials.

Thank you.

Respected sir,
"Peheredar piyaki" has recived lots of negetive  Review and critisied a loat for its story. The story is about one a royal rajesthani femily and its haritage. A young girl mary to one little nine year litle boy and it is controversial topic. Reviewer says that its not good for children to see on screen that one litle boy mary with young girl and have such kind of scene cause childrens are inspierd wrongly. So in that sense it would bee seen as regresive. I also believe  that obviously on the name of creativity producer could not been present anything. Serials tital is peheredar mens protector, so it mens that a young girl protect nine year boy but in serials scene in the first episod a girl is fearing from litle insect and protected by that boy..its deconstruct its own way.. so obviously it seems to be like its regresive. At another point we can see that in serial a litle boy and young girl have some romantic sceneso it also problemetic and looks regresive.
 Another point of view is that this serial has negetivly criticising for one young girl married with a litle nine year boy and it creats wrong impression in the childs so my question and point is that in "balika vadhu" serial there is also a two litle child are geting married and all things happend so isnt it creat wrong impression among children? In that serial one character "Bhairav" one almost aged person married with a young girl "shugna" who is very little in age she is only at 18 or 19 and Bhairav is almost 50 so at that why that scene  was not banned or people objected it.?? In gujrati serial "suri lavshe sapnani savar" which is coming at present time so in which a girl is not adult still her marrige is happend and all things happen so why that would not also beung controversial??  

According to me peheredar piyaki is not progressive as well not regressive cause its era of 21st century where people wants to see something new and desir to new something at every day. So being in trp list maker have also presenting something different and new. So in that sense it progressive also. Apart from sas bahu high melodrama makers would have presenting something unexpected is seems progressive. Another thing is one female character lead this and presenting as protective.So this serial is breking the idea of patriarcal that a "man as protector and female is protected by" so in that sense it is progressive also. 

According to me this serial has negetive controversi so the main reson is that its scenes, a litle boy have romance with 18 year old girl.. if there is not something like that so it will be obviously one serial with creative idea. And looking strong at its point of view.
 Critic's one point to criticising this is that a childrens have has its wrong impression so i would like to asked them that on telivision there is movie's and cartoon and all many things comes in which there is porn scene also there even in advertisemnet like "move" or any "Bodylotion" Products there is some scene is coming which may be creats very good impression among childrens. Isnt it?? So have you not any problem with that?? Is it good or bad?? Lets forgot about movies but in Advertisemnet it will problemetic for CHILDREN. So that point of criticising is not right at SOME LEVEL.why dont you have any critical review for that??why that should  ot band? 
This serial is both, regressive as well progressive also.

Respected sir,


“Peheredar Piya ki”


The content is regressive and  Progressive


In this serial has also two way looking and   think about progressive and Regressive in controversy in both the way of looking the serial.

 .I completely agree and I don’t intent do advocate for child marriage be it a nine year old girl or a nine year old boy. The whole story of this serial is based on the fact that the protagonist ‘Diya’ marries the little boy ‘Prince Ratan Singh’ to protect him from his evil relatives.

Even if they still manage to kill him to acquire his business they don’t get it, she does. However after marriage, he has her by his side to protect him at every step that he takes and that is how the name ‘Peheredar Piya Ki’ comes from.

Whatever the reason, it just does not justify a nine-year-old boy getting married to an adult woman in her twenties.

Let me remind you of a few of them. Remember ’Roli’ being married off when she was just a kid in the serial ‘Sasural Simmer ka’ to Siddhartha, who was the older brother of Roli’s older sister ‘Simmer’s’ husband ‘Prem ’. It perhaps did not look that bad because ‘Roli’ did not look her age, she looked older thanks to her amazing height and acting. ‘Sasural Simar ka’ has to be my most favorite on this topic for it simply had the crappiest content from the very beginning and later it got so crappy that we couldn’t even laugh it off.

 

Like how ‘Simar’ the protagonist turns into a fly and all it got was some meme from people all over. Before that the serial had an ‘Iccha Dhari Nagin’ who played an important role and it went on for a couple of months. There was this one time how ‘Roli’ suddenly dies and then they manage to find another girl who looks exactly like ‘Roli’ (I wonder if finding identical twins who are not born in the same family are so easy, I wish I could find mine just like that someday. It will be so cool to have a sister who looks like me from another mother and let me also add father).

This list can go on, however I will just point out a few more names of the serials that did well for its TRP’s despite having regressive content – Kumkum Bhgaya, Naagin, Ye hai Mohabtein, Tashan-e-ishq, Qubool Hai and many more.

 

So, if we ask for a ban on this serial for being regressive, we must ask for all these kind of serials to be banned, not just one. But won’t that have our channels go blank for a couple of days? According to me, this serial is facing such backlash only because it is regressive in terms of sexism.

Respected sir,
I think that Pehredar Piya Ki got controversy because they show woman as protecter and woman is older than man character and that is the reason why all wants to ban it because they never accept woman in power position. If the position of woman and man is changed than society don't have any kind of problem then they don't remember child marriage also. Other reason I thought that may be whatever reason is there, I don't think that marriage is the only option if she wants to protect him she can adopt him too. Marry to a 9 year old boy is not a solution. And to compelete my point I want to say that in this world nothing is perfect, everyone has some kind of problem with everything you can not make happy every people but it doesn't mean you start baning the things if it is so then one day may be everything is ban you have free choice if you like it watch it, if you don't then don't watch it.
Thank you.

.I completely disagree  This show will encourage child marriage which is illegal in country, and they are promoting this matter, there should a legal notice to the producer for encouraging people against Child Marriage Act 2006.

Respected sir, 
 OD 2 : Pehredaar Piya Ki 

            Pehredaar Piya Ki is a television show that revolves around the relationship between a nine-year-old boy and an 18-year-old woman. The woman is not only the boy, Ratan Singh’s bodyguard, but also his wife.  The serial had been accused of making the child stalk the grown-up woman and more recently it featured a “suhaag raat (wedding night)” sequence. It would seem like there really is no rock bottom for soap operas in India.

↠ Angry viewers had started a petition, addressed to Smriti Irani, Union minister of information and broadcasting, to get Pehredaar Piya Ki off air. More than 71,246 people had expressed their approval over the show’s removal from television.
↠ Not just viewers, the show had received criticism from within the industry as well. Apart from child marriage evil or romantic engel which had shown, i think people should  also start accept the truth that men can be protected by women. The patriarchal  structure which has its deep roots in every Indian's mind, especially men, that only a men should be a protector of a girl or woman needs to change.

Now the cast and crew of this serial is coming back with the same concept but, with adult couple instead of minor-adult.

OnLine Discussion 2 (2017):
Do you agree that this TV show is regressive as online petitioner Shobha Shrivastav thinks or is it progressive as actress Tejaswi Prakash believes?
Give your reasons.


Argument by S Shrivastav to ban :
The serial  Pehredaar Piya Ki on Sony TV shows a 10 year boy married to a woman. who is much older to him.This is obnoxious and perverted and will severely impact impressionable minds of children. As a mother and a responsible citizen i am aghast and disturbed.

Argument in favour of serial and online petition by Divya S.:
