Pehredaar Piya Ki. Is it progressive or regressive?






Pehredaar Pyar Ki have reiterated that the television serial is a work of fiction that does not promote child marriage. Responding to reports that Union Information and Broadcasting Minister Smriti Irani has asked the Broadcasting Content Complaints Council to study objections to the depiction of a marriage between a 10-year-old boy and an 18-year-old woman, the show’s co-producer and creator, Shashi Mittal, said at a press conference in Mumbai,“We haven’t portrayed anything uncomfortable in the show and do not promote child marriage.”
       


The show, produced by Shashi and Sumeet Productions, has been raising eyebrows ever since it started airing on July 17 on Sony Television. The plot follows the marital union between 10-year-old Rajput prince Ratan Singh (Afaan Khan) and his 18-year-old caretaker Diya (Tejaswi Prakash), who becomes his wife to protect him from his scheming relatives.





The show has magnificent sets and has been shot aesthetically in opulent palaces in Rajasthan and has explored Rajasthani elements to the hilt--be it the grandeur, decor, dance or colourful costumes. Full points to the makers for that. 






       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.
