A suitable boy

When I watched the suitable boy for the first time, I did not get why Lata chose Haresh instead of Kabir who she was clearly in love with. She wasn’t the kind of woman who would leave something just because her mother disagrees. She’s the kind who would fight for what she wants. Then why […]
