Brahma tells Uttara that he will never marry her

The first episode of "Maryada" in 2012 was really exciting! As Uttara's birthday party continued, she kept trying to get hold of Brahma, eager for him to make the announcement of his divorce from Devyani and their impending marriage. However, Brahma kept successfully avoiding her. Finally, when Uttara had started to make the announcement Brahma faked an illness and went upstairs.

Uttara followed him and told him that she knew he was just pretending to be ill and that if he was not going to make the announcement than she would herself. Brahma threw her on the bed and told her that neither was he going to tell anyone nor was she. He told her that he never intended to marry her and she was only good for sleeping with a few times. Uttara was shocked and refused to believe this, thinking that he was only saying this in anger. However, Brahma told her that she was only a tool for him to use against Devyani and she was stupid for ignoring her sister's warnings and believing his lies. He further said that she is not worth marrying, otherwise why would her first husband have beaten her?

Although this was a long-awaited wake up call for Uttara, I actually felt a little bad for her character today. Although she willingly slept with her brother-in-law, he did manipulate her into it and made her believe that his marriage to her sister was in name only and that he truly loved her and wanted to marry her. Today, he basically told her that he considered her nothing better than a prostitute, something that no woman wants to her and certainly not from the man she "loves".

As "Maryada" comes to an end at the end of January, it will be interesting how the CVs wind up all the plots. Let's keeping watching!

Gaurav tells Brahma he's gay

Today was another exciting episode on "Maryada".

Brahma came home to find Gaurav, Karan, Vidya, Devyani, Adi, and Priya standing in the hall. Gaurav told Brahma he wanted to talk to him and then told him that he was gay. Brahma said that he couldn't be gay because he was married to Vidya. Gaurav replied that his marriage to Vidya was a compromise. Brahma asked what Karan was doing there and Gaurav said that it is Karan that he loves. Brahma got angry and tried to strangle Gaurav.

After the family pulled Brahma off Gaurav, Brahma pretended to accept Gaurav and laid all the blame on Devyani for not telling him earlier and for poisoning the children's minds against him. He said that even the last time when he tried to shoot Gaurav, he was only angry that Gaurav had ruined Vidya's life. Adi believed him while the rest of the family was shocked.

Karan happily told Gaurav that now everything will be OK. Gaurav was still suspicious at how his dad's attitude could change so quickly, but Karan reminded him that his mom's attitude changed completely.

Adi yelled at Devyani and said he couldn't believe she would try to show his dad in a bad light. Priya tried to step in but he told her that she doesn't know his dad and that she has proved to be a good daughter-in-law for his mother but not for his father.

Brahma is very smart. He knew how to turn the tables on Devyani and make her look bad in front of the children so that when the news about the divorce comes out, the children will be on his side. He also thinks that maybe now Devyani will give up he idea of divorcing him. It will be interesting to see what happens.

Gaurav reveals his homosexuality to Vidya's parents

Tonight's episode was another milestone in the plot of "Maryada": Vidya's parents finally got to know that Gaurav is gay.

Adi, Priya and Gaurav rush back to the village in order to stop the tantric ritual that Vidya's parents are doing to help her become a mother. They reach there just as Vidya is about to walk barefoot on burning coals. Adi pulls her out of the way and everyone is angry with him for disturbing the ritual. Adi yells at them that what they are doing is wrong. Vidya's father says that they are doing it to wipe off Vidya's past sins so she can become pregnant and the Jhakkar family won't send her home permanently. Adi has had enough and demands that Gaurav tell the truth. Gaurav reveals that there's nothing wrong with Vidya and he can't give her a baby because he's gay. Vidya's father doesn't understand what this means. He asks "What kind of illness is this?" (When Gaurav's truth was first revealed to Vidya she also didn't understand what homosexuality was). Vidya's mother takes her husband away to explain to him.

Priya sympathizes with Gaurav and tells him that she doesn't believe he's a bad person. She understands the pressure on him, first for a marriage and then for a baby. She now understands why he was trying to get Vidya and Cheenu together.

Vidya's father comes back and slaps Gaurav, telling that he ruined Vidya's life to hide his own truth. Vidya defends Gaurav, telling her father that he is her husband and this is their internal matter. Her dad is shocked that even after all that has happened, Vidya is defending Gaurav. She is about to say something when she falls to the ground unconscious. Everyone rushes to take her to a doctor.

This was a very interesting episode. Vidya's father's reaction was perfectly natural and Gaurav deserved that slap. True to form, Vidya continued to defend her husband. It will be interesting to see whether they stay married or finally get divorced.

Subhankar tells Devyani that Brahma doesn't really want a divorce

Devyani goes to see her lawyer, Mr. Subhankar Singh Jaiswal, and he tells her that Brahma has no intention of giving her a divorce and it's just a strategy of his. Devyani is shocked and asks him how he knows this. SJ tells her that a man named Varma came to see him and asked him to drop all his other cases and take his case for whatever price he chooses. SJ found out that Varma was sent by Brahma and that Varma was the one who had threatened all the other lawyers in the town into refusing to take Devyani's case. Devyani doesn't understand why Brahma would do this as she knows he doesn't want to live with her. SJ tells her that no matter how well she thinks she knows her husband, he trusts his instincts.

The Jhakkar's are having dinner when Devyani gets home. Brahma asks her where she was and she tells him that she had gone to see her lawyer to make sure that all the paperwork was being completed properly: What would be Brahma's responsibilities after the divorce? How much would Devyani's share of the property be? Brahma gets up and leaves the table, saying he has some important work. Priya is surpised to see Devyani so happy and calm about the divorce, and asks her what happened. Devyani tells her that she was right and Brahma was never serious about the divorce.

Brahma is threatening Verma on the phone and telling him that this is his last chance to get the lawyer off his back. Unknown to him, Devyani and Priya overhear this conversation.

Doctor tells Vidya's mom that Vidya doesn't have relations with her husband

Recently on "Maryada", the plot has been focusing on Vidya and her failure to have a baby. Though the audience knows that the reason that Vidya has not become pregnant is because of Gaurav's homosexuality, the people in Vidya's village think that it is because Vidya is infertile. One of the villagers suggests to Vidya's mother that she take Vidya to a doctor so they can treat her. Vidya's father decides that this is a good idea and makes an appointment for her. When Vidya's mom finds out she suggests that they should ask Vidya first, but Vidya's dad gets angry and says that there's no need for that.

When Vidya finds out about the plan, she is very upset. She tells her mother that she knows Gaurav's truth (that Vidya and Gaurav don't have a husband-wife relationship). Vidya's mom says that she does but she can't tell Vidya's father. Vidya says that even if her father doesn't know Gaurav's truth, why does he automatically assume that she is the one that is infertile and not Gaurav. Vidya's mom tells her that society always blames the woman for a couple's failure to have a baby. Vidya says that this is an injustice and she refuses to go to the doctor.

Vidya tells her father that she will not go to the doctor. He yells at her and tells her that when a woman fails to have a baby, her in-laws send her to her parent's home forever, and he doesn't want Vidya to stay with them. He forces her to go to the doctor.

The doctor examines Vidya and then asks her if it's true that she hasn't had relations with her husband. Vidya tells her that it is, but begs her not to tell her mother. The doctor replies that she has to give a true report. She tells Vidya's mother that Vidya is a virgin and tells her that it isn't right to automatically blame the woman wihout knowing the whole situation. She adds that Vidya's absolutely fine and if there's a problem, it must be with her husband. Vidya's mom begs the doctor not to tell Vidya's father.

This is a very interesting track that raises important issues. In Indian society, the failure to have a baby is seen as the fault of the woman, even though it is possible for the man to be infertile. In Vidya's case, Gaurav can't give her a baby because he is gay. It will be interesting to see what will happen from here. In this day and age, a couple can have a baby without intercourse, through In vitro fertilization. Perhaps Gaurav will sleep with Vidya once so that she can get pregnant?

Aditya finds out about Karan

Adi goes to comfort Vidya who is upset about Cheenu and Gaurav's plan. She says to Adi that she did the same thing when she tried to get Gaurav and Karan together. Adi says "Karan? Who's Karan?" Vidya realizes she's said too much, but Adi gets her to tell him the whole truth. She tells him that Karan is Mantri Ji's son. Adi now understands why Karan was always hanging around Gaurav and why Gaurav and Karan went into business together.

Gaurav is on the phone with one of Karan's friends, asking him to take care of Karan. The friend tells him that Karan is drinking more and using drugs. He says that only Gaurav can save him. Gaurav replies that Karan won't see him.

Aditya confronts Gaurav about Karan and asks him how long their relationship has been going on. Gaurav tells him that he felt attracted to Karan the first time he saw him and wanted to be around him and to talk to him. Slowly they both realized that they love each other. Adi tells him that it's not his fault that he is the way he is. Gaurav asks if his being gay will make Adi hate him. Adi tells him not to be crazy. He already said that it's not his fault that he is gay and second he's his brother. He is upset about how Vidya was treated, but he's sure Gaurav will fix the situation.

Adi gets a call from Mantri Ji. He tells her he's about to go back to the village and she tells him she has a great idea. When he gets off the phone, Gaurav asks him what Mantri Ji said. Adi says that he thought Mantri Ji hated Gaurav, than why did she tell him that she wants the contract for the village development to be given to Gaurav's company? Gaurav and Adi become suspicious. Meanwhile, we see Mantri Ji telling herself that she kill two birds with one stone. Adi will go down and he will take Gaurav down with him.

The fallout from Cheenu's revelation

Today was another exciting episode that explored the consequences of Vidya finding about about Cheenu and Gaurav's plan. As expected, Vidya gave Cheenu a piece of her mind, telling him that he betrayed her friendship. She confided all her problems to him, thinking that he was her friend, but all the while he was thinking something else. She ordered him to never again say that he loves her. She also gave a piece of her mind to Gaurav telling him that he treated her like a toy, giving her to someone else when he got tired of her. She said that "If I am a toy, you should have left me in a corner. I would not have said anything but how could you even thinking of giving me to another man." Gaurav tries to explain, telling her that he wanted her to have the love he can't give her. Vidya is about to reply that she knows he can't love her because he's gay but stops herself because she realizes that Priya is there. She runs off and locks herself in her room. Gaurav tries to talk to her but she won't listen to him.

Gaurav tells Adi that Vidya knows everything about his and Cheenu's plan and he's worried she'll harm herself. Adi says that Vidya is sensible and won't do anything stupid. Gaurav tells Adi that he is responsible for all this, and if he hadn't married Vidya none of this would have happened. He should have told Adi about his sexuality earlier and then the two brothers would have worked something out and this marriage wouldn't have happened. Adi asks why he didn't tell him and Gaurav replies that he was afraid of losing him.

Meanwhile, Priya is comforting Cheenu, who now realizes that Vidya can never love him. He says he would never have dreamed of gaining her love if he had realized the pain he would feel when his eyes were opened.

Devyani arrives looking for Gaurav and Adi and Adi confronts her, telling her he can't believe that she could be so selfish that she got Gaurav married even after knowing about his homosexuality. How could she join his life with that of this innocent girl? Devyani is speechless.

Pre-cap: Gaurav tells Adi that their mother was afraid that if Brahma came to know Gaurav's truth, he would kill him. Adi doesn't believe his dad is capable of this and Devyani reveals that not only is he capable of it but he actually tried to do it. Seems like Adi is finally going to learn the truth about his dad.
