In my opinion, an apology can be solved, but in a country where the divorce rate is only 1%, too many men feel unapologetic about beating their wives. A slap is not just a slap, but domestic violence , dignity and happiness.

At the beginning of the film, the girl asked: "Why do we have to get married, we are already engaged, and we will definitely get married in the future, but we are fine now, you love me, I love you, we are very happy together, why should we add to the story The twists and turns, why?" Everyone wants to stay in the best time, like Amulita, like Elio, but the closer to happiness, the closer to pain, so what should we do? ?

In the movie, the grandfather said to his son-in-law on the day of his daughter's wedding, not "If you dare to bully my daughter, you will be finished" but "If she does anything wrong in the future, forgive her"; his wife was beaten in public With a slap in the face, the mother-in-law came into the house not with words of consolation, but: "Let's go, there are guests outside, what will they think?" The poor macho man was in a bad mood at home, and beat his wife while eating With a slap, the wife asked, "Why did you hit me?" The man replied: "Why? Do I need a reason to hit you?" These three people just represent three classes, the middle class, the rich and the poor, and these three The attitude of people is also a microcosm of Indian society. Seeing this, I can't help but feel scared. Why would my wife be reduced to this level? But when I looked down, I realized that it was not just the husband and father, but also the mother and mother-in-law.

The poor wife said, "My husband beat me again last night, and I didn't run away. Once he shut the door for me, where would I go?"

The hostess' mother said: "I never thought that today would come. Our daughter is going to get a divorce. What did we do wrong? A woman should learn to be patient to maintain her family. She has to suppress her feelings."

The mother of the heroine's mother said: "My mother told me that the family is the most important thing, and her mother educated her that the family is the top priority"

The lawyer girl said: "Amulita, it's unusual, people will think it's unreasonable to get a divorce with just a slap in the face"

The mother-in-law said: "Even if you don't think about him, you should think about the child in your belly. The child shouldn't grow up in an incomplete family. Let the past pass."

You see, even all women say this to their daughters. They teach women to be patient, pay, and consider the overall situation. They feel that when their husbands are happy, their children are happy, they are also happy, but they forget that if they don’t If you are happy, you cannot be happy for others.

Everyone feels that a slap in the face is not a big deal, and it will pass if you endure it, but how much meaning is hidden behind this slap, it implies that men are accustomed to women's family contributions, implying that boys are disrespectful to girls, implying that family Men should be dominant in life. Once there will be the next time, and the next time will have a more serious next time, so Amulita will resolutely choose to divorce, because this slap not only destroyed her self-esteem , also destroyed her love.

Although the male protagonist in the movie realized his mistake and chose to sign the divorce agreement, he planned to start pursuing the female protagonist again, but life is not a movie, and there are so many tragedies behind the 1% divorce rate.

South Korea produced "Kim Zhiying Born in 1982", India produced "Slap in the Face", and China, where the divorce rate is gradually rising, when will a film focusing on women be produced?

ps: The movie is really long. The last Indian movie I watched so long was "Toilet Revolution"

  • Subodh: Does she have a real case for divorce ? When you're truly in love, a little physical aggression is an expression of love.
