Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahaani - An honest review

I watched Rocky aur Rani ki Prem Kahaani because everyone I know on social media and few close folks in my real life said it was very entertaining - funny, progressive, feminist , and it showed gender equality.

So I was taken aback, because the general sentiment for KJo movies should be ‘It’s so shit, but I love it’ - that is a sentiment I can live with because we all have our guilty pleasures.

KJo has his audience who love the shit he pulls off every time he ‘directs’ a film with toxic masculinity, regressive female leads , justifying infidelity (always the answer to unhappy marriages) , glorifying Indian culture, where he adds 30 mins of melodrama and lectures to make the characters redeem themselves. Kjo’s movies are as lame as they can be, but people love them. I get it - ‘this shit is so bad, it’s so good’ category of films. Guilty pleasures are exactly this!

So sell me his new offering in exactly this manner - but all reviews and social media comments were glowing words of praise of how he has addressed today’s issues and it’s a progressive film. Are people suffering from amnesia or have they not watched better Bollywood films? Because I have a whole list of films you should watch that actually deal with ‘progressive’ mindsets - way before Kjo’s time!

Rani is a feminist. A FL as feisty news anchor who gives a 5 min lecture on men’s gaze, objectification of women and rape culture, but does an absolute U-turn 5 mins later by objectifying a handsome man in front of her. This is gender equality. Tit for Tat.

Wearing open back blouses to work is sign of new age feminism (Will I get trolled for sounding old school - has KJo ever stepped inside a corporate workspace - who dresses like Rani does?) What’s next? Women CEOs wearing bikinis? And why not get all men to dress like Rocky Randhawa - that would be peak gender equality in dress code at workplace.

Infidelity is the answer to all unhappy marriages. Remember KANK? Yes, let’s repeat that here, but let’s twist it into unrequited love between the senior citizens. Then add memory loss and illness excuse to get the 80yr old grandpa smooch his 75yr old ex-lover in front of his wife and entire family. The issue is not old age love, age is never a restriction to fall in love, the issue here is infidelity. But if this isn’t cringe enough, let’s completely destroy the most beautiful romantic number in Bollywood by playing it in the background to immortalise infidelity and later lust under the garb of love.

Let’s get back to our feminism torch bearer Rani, who has now jumped from knowing the guy for two meetings to lusting over him. She is honest with herself (not with Rocky mind you, because at no point have they had any conversation about themselves) that she is in it purely for the physical attraction, it’s just a fling for her. She is an elitist , feminist, Colombian grad, Bengali Girl (who has a terrible Bengali accent) and the crude, can’t speak English well, Gucci/Fendi wearing, Ferrari driving, protein shake drinking, loud Punjabi boy doesn’t match up to her standards. Kjo’s new level of feminism - make women pull the exact shit on men that men have put women through for decades. Tit for Tat! Gender Equality.

Btw at this point I still don’t know why Rocky loves Rani - love at first sight is always about the looks and physical attraction, so convince me why he loves her - because isn’t he this walking-talking green flag just by being understanding of his grandpa’s feelings and calling out Rani checking him out. A walking green flag who gets his grandpa’s ex-lover and his grandpa together to help his grandpa get better - because love is the cure for all illnesses. All doctors and medical researchers have been wasting their time on getting degrees and super specialisations - please enter Kjo’s school of love.

So now Rani realises she is in love - when and why and what changed her feelings from lust to love - I do not know. She drives on a 4-lane highway in the opposite direction - woman should have died there for her reckless driving, but she lives to propose to Rocky on a f&*king Highway! Bollywood I love you for pulling off this shit.

This is supposed to be the pivotal point in their relationship where she professes her love to him, going down on one knee (because hey you see role reversal - she is the feminist, the alpha female) and telling Rocky everything that HE IS NOT , listing her resume and her exes’. Therefore implying he doesn’t deserve her, but she is taking the high road and still falling for him. All the reasons she lists that she loves about him are actually about his physical aspects = Lust. She doesn’t list one meaningful quality that she actually ‘loves’ about him.

It is at this point that I gave up on the film, because after this RRKPK became a collation of scenes dedicated to social media trending topics:

1. Women burdened with household work

2. Women not liberated enough to pursue their dreams

3. Women being fat shamed

4. Cancel culture

5. Men being shamed for pursuing classical dancing (KJo research FFS - 50% of India’s top kathak dancers are males right from 1940s! )

Each topic got 1-2 scenes, tweets converted to preachy dialogues uttered by our ‘feminist’ queen and zero closures or character growth.

The only thing that works in this movie - is Ranveer , not his character, but him! He is effortless in this role, his comic timing is superb, needs some work on emotions.

Alia is a shadow of her awesome self on screen post her marriage to Ranbir. It hurts to say this, cause I have loved her in all her movies except SOTY.

Can people age gracefully, I couldn’t bear to look at Shabana Azmi and Jaya B - former was gorgeous as hell in her younger days, now is swollen with all the Botox fillers! Jaya has forgotten to act completely. Dharmendra should not even be acting anymore.

What was the point of rest of the cast? Only Alia’s dad was a decent act.

The one thing I absolutely love in KJo movies is the music and songs! These were crap too. What Jhumka? Because ruining all the songs from ‘The Golden’ decade of Bollywood was not enough, so they made a terrible mashup of Badtameez Dil & Jhumka Gira Re and killed both the songs in one go! Takes some skill doing this - well done!

Why this long rant if I disliked the movie so much, that too KJo movies? I wouldn’t have written one, if the reviews and comments were honest about the movie being average, typical entertainment; but the moment people praised it to nth level of being socially relevant with feminist heroine and gender equality - they deserved to be called out for their shallow thought process thinking that KJo actually cares about any of this stuff.

Worst people think this is ‘quintessential’ Bollywood. Please watch better films - like Amitabh’s roaring 70s, the romance films of 90s, the fun comedies, the glorious slice of life films from Hrishida, the Yash Chopra multistarrers - that’s quintessential, genuine, charm of Bollywood.

Lastly before I wrap this up - RRKPK when literally translated is Love Story of Rocky and Rani. I spent 2.5 hours on this shit show and I still don’t know the answer to why and how they fell in love! They didn’t have one decent conversation about themselves! The latter half is about them wooing their families. The film should have been aptly titled ‘Randhawa and Chatterjee Ki Prem Kahaani’ - It’s all about loving your family - K3G Part 2!

[desbianherstory]

...I’ve had people engage with my race while dating. Not in a positive way, but in a way that fetishises me. There was a woman, (yes, you guessed right, she’s white), who I went on a couple of dates with and my friends and I still speak about her actions to this day. I came across her on Twitter and we started talking over DMs. She showed mild interest, but not as much as I did: remember, I was eager to prove my bisexuality with women and non-binary people, so would find myself engaging excessively on social media platforms. We eventually exchanged numbers and went out on a date. On the lead up to the date, I would receive a flurry of messages, showing interest but also a very specific interest. She talked a lot about Bollywood and well … Indian things. At one point, assuming she knows more than me, would tell me things about the Bollywood stars I grew up with. I assumed she was just dense, but my horniness took over and I went on the date. It was awkward: she controlled a significant part of the conversation and as it was my first proper date with a woman, I was nervous. The date ended and I felt strange. A few days later we were still talking over text, and she kept talking about India and I found myself sighing every time her name popped up on my phone.

I was on the bus, coming back from a meeting when I looked at my phone and saw a message saying:

‘I’m obsessed with Indians now. Watching these movies like “CAN I HAVE ONE?”’

I stopped moving. In fact, it felt like the bus had stopped in shock too. It felt like everyone on the bus took a sharp intake of breath and were staring at my phone.

‘CAN I HAVE ONE?’

Can I have one? My mind goes to takeaways, because I always give people the benefit of the doubt. She’s hungry for a takeaway? No, she wasn’t. She was hungry for an Indian person. The cannibal nature of her fetishisation is not an exaggeration – there’s a need to devour the culture, the people, the art. They consume it.

‘Indian people fucking love me. I will be in an item song. I WILL BE.’

Do Indian people fucking love you? Really? Because this Indian person is really regretting that date. For those who don’t know: an item song is a number in a Bollywood film, performed by a dancer/actor who isn’t cast as a main character but is just introduced for this song – and it is usually very seductive. Like a sexy cameo that no one needed. I guess that sums her up as well.

‘I FANCY ALL INDIANS. Hahahahahahaha!’

The laugh was deafening.

She talked about adopting an Indian accent, about learning how to speak and write in Hindi and then perform her stand up (yup, she’s a comedian). She talked about wearing Indian dresses like they were costumes and has since modelled for Pakistani TV. She would send me scribblings of her learning Hindi and ask me to translate certain words.

I’m Punjabi. I know Hindi from Bollywood. Also, I can barely write in English, I can’t decipher what you’re writing, woman. Eventually, I stopped replying more and more. It took longer than it should have because my heart was broken over the idea that my first proper date with a woman went down like this. What were the chances. I was so adamant that men were the worst and then I was reminded that white women are not far behind them. She was not at all interested in me, my personality, my work, my looks, my desires … she was interested in the fact that I’m Indian. She didn’t care that I had a magazine that works with creative and young people. She didn’t care that I wanted to talk about systematic oppression. She definitely didn’t care about any of my stories. She didn’t even really want to be with me in any sense of the word.

She wanted to use me to learn how to be more Indian. This white woman. Turns out she was known in the comedy circuit for being problematic and my friends who were actual good comedians filled me in. I’ve been fetishised by men before, but that’s kind of expected. I have very little expectation from them, so I wouldn’t be surprised. But when it came from the first woman I went on a proper date with, it sent me down a hole of uncertainty. I wasn’t sure whether I was able to survive the dating world as a bisexual person, because men suck and now, I had this awful experience. So, what now?

Through time and speaking to others, I developed confidence back in myself, but it has still stuck with me. Now when someone says ‘I’d like to watch a Bollywood film with you’, after I’ve told them I’ve spent the whole day dancing to Bollywood songs, instead of saying ‘sure!’, my mind thinks ‘okay but why though’. And I scrutinise actions. I rarely give the benefit of the doubt. I often overanalyse.

20 Cultures & Nations That Continue to Wear Traditional Clothing Everyday

The world has drastically evolved in many different ways during the past 100 years.

Previously, for a number of reasons, each nation, each region, and almost every town or tribe wore its own distinctive traditional attire. Some were made due to the weather, some for the class, and some because those were the only colors and materials available.

Today, only a small percentage of communities worldwide continue to dress traditionally on a daily basis.

Pakistan

Sari and the shalwar kameez, two types of traditional dress, are worn in Pakistan.

The shalwar kameez is more popular throughout the nation, even among Punjabis.

Saris are typically worn by Muslim and Hindu devotees, and are more frequent in cities than anywhere else. These traditional outfits are made of cotton and are loosely draped around the body, keeping the wearer warm in the winter and cool in the summer.

Indonesia

Indonesia is a group of islands with many varied civilizations, each of which has its own traditional and "westernized" clothing.

Let's focus on the kebaya. Today, Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei, Myanmar, some regions of Thailand, Cambodia, and the Philippines all wear the kebaya.

It's almost always floral and typically paired with a silk, cotton, or polyester sarong. It’s the traditional dress of Indonesia but is predominantly worn by the Javanese, Balinese, and Sundanese.

The kebaya blouse, the brooch (since the original and traditional kebaya has no buttons), and the sarong or skirt make up the traditional clothing ensemble that is typically worn. Many different styles are used today to make it modern, and it's common to see among the people

Maasai of Kenya

They still wear clothing with a variety of colors and patterns nowadays. Both men and women wear flowery patterns. The most prevalent traditional clothing costume is a kanga, a one piece worn over the body.

It's also customary to wear beaded jewelry, and each hue has a unique meaning. For instance, the colors white and red denote peace and bravery, respectively.

The beads were made out of a variety of materials before European contact, including clay, seeds, bone, etc.

The majority of beads created today are composed of glass. Head shaving is also a right of passage for both genders. The Maasai's traditional clothing seems to be enduring despite their use of contemporary materials.

Sami of Sapmi

The Sami people are found in northern Russia, Sweden, Finland, and Norway. You may have seen Kristof in Frozen wearing all black, but Sami's traditional attire is the complete opposite!

They dress in vibrant hues, elaborate designs, and a variety of styles. It is known as a gakti and is worn during ceremonies, work, and reindeer herding.

Nowadays, the gakti is typically made of cotton, wool, or silk instead of the reindeer leather used in traditional versions.

Wearing certain colors, patterns, or jewelry might reveal a person's origins, marital status, and even the identity of their family.

Bhutan

Both men and women still dress traditionally in the little nation to China's south.

A gho is the term used for guys. Women refer to it as kira. The men's attire consists of a knee-length robe with a waist tie. A kabney, a silk scarf that hangs from the left shoulder down to the right hip, may be worn occasionally (like at celebrations).

In fact, if a man works for the government or a school in Bhutan, he must wear the traditional garb, called gho.

The female kira is an ankle-length dress that is typically tied at the waist and clipped with brooches at the shoulders.

Vietnam

Although the ao dai may not be as popular as it once was, it does seem to be making a comeback.

Although it is gender neutral, today most women wear it.

This is the attire you will find in settings where uniforms are common (e.g., schools, banks, restaurants, flight attendants, etc.). Typically, when we think of traditional attire, we picture conservative looks that cover everything.

The ao dai does cover everything, but if you want it to be more promiscuous, you may make the cloth as thin and translucent as you like. Additionally, it can be tailored to fit tightly and form-fittingly to highlight the body's inherent curves.

Japan

We've all heard of the kimono, which in Japanese literally translates to "thing to wear," but did you realize there are other types of it?

The kimono is available for both men and women.

The most complicated ones have 12 separate parts, including the women's. There are several obi styles and ways to tie them for formal and casual situations in addition to various kimono styles for various occasions.

The kimono for males is more simple, typically consisting of 5 pieces. Today, they are typically darker in tone (blues, blacks, and greens), however occasionally brighter hues are used for more laid-back occasions.

Conclusion

Just as in the summer and spring, dresses are appropriate in the fall. We've gathered some of our favorite cute Best Fall Dresses for Women to assist you figure out how to look put-together in a dress while the temperature outside is 40 degrees.

THE INCREDIBLE EVOLUTION OF THE SALWAR KAMEEZ

Whether you call it the Salwar suit, Punjabi suit, shalwar kameez, or whatever you know, the salwar kameez is one piece of dress that holds a dear place and plays a significant role in Indian women's fashion. In this post, however, we’ll focus on the evolution of salwar kameez over time.

The Salwar Kameez is the traditional dress of the northern and Kashmir regions of India.

It’s also worn across the length and breadth of our almost 1.4-billion people country. Men also wear it although it’s more popular among women. The dress consists of a long shirt or tunic referred to as kameez and a trouser that could be wide, narrow, or baggy, known as the salwar. It may be paired with the dupatta; which is basically a shawl or scarf.

ORIGIN OF THE SALWAR KAMEEZ

The Salwar Kameez dress was introduced into Indian fashion and culture by the arrival of Muslims in South Asia around the 12th century. These dresses were later popularized by the Mughal Empire dynasty, a Muslim royal dynasty of Turkic-Mongol origin that ruled India between the 16th century to mid 18th century.

Legend has it that the Anarkali suit worn by courtesans of the Mughal palace was the earliest known form of Salwar Kameez in India. Courtesans of that era were often invited to the palace to perform the Mujra dress. The Anarkali-style dress they wore then was referred to as the Mujra dress. That dress was later renamed the Anarkali in honor of Lady Anarkali, one of the most prominent courtesans of the Mughal era.

Mughal women of that era made their dresses from the finest quality silk, velvet, brocades, and muslin. Different variations of the dress have evolved over time.

Punjabi Salwar Kameez blends color, embellishments, and embroidery into its design. The loose kurta, which could be long or short, is usually paired with a baggy salwar that often narrows as it extends downwards.

MODERN SALWAR KAMEEZ STYLES & DESIGNS

The Salwar Kameez worn today has evolved significantly from the Mujra dresses dancers wore to entertain princes within Mughal empire royal courts.

The modern Salwar Kameez now comes in different lengths and sizes as well as different styles and designs while still retaining its historical style and character. This evolution of Salwar Kameez has produced Salwar dresses of diverse kinds that include;

Anarkali suits: a long, flowy, frock style top kameez paired with salwar trousers or churidar

Patiala suits: consisting of a knee-length kameez paired with extremely baggy salwars stitched with pleats.

Sharara: a lehenga-like variation of the salwar kameez with trousers that are flared and wide-legged.

Gharara: this comprises a short kameez and a salwar that is fitted from the waist to the knee from where it then flares out to the toes.

Palazzo salwar: this is a Western take on Indian dress with a kameez top paired with loose palazzo pants that stay parallel to your legs.

Salwar Kameez dresses have come a long way through history. The evolution of Salwar Kameez in India paints a very interesting picture and to a large extent, provides an insight into Indian fashion culture as a whole.

Designers today keep dishing out new designs that continue to build on conventional styles and designs. This dress continues to be a favorite for women in India as well as Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan, among others.

Karwa Chauth and Fasting in Guru Granth Sahib

Fasting, Vrata in Guru Granth Sahib

For a clear understanding of Significance of fasting (Upvasa) e.g. Karwa Chauth, Ekadashi Vrata etc, let's have look on the following verses of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji first. ਧੰਨੁ ਗੁਪਾਲ ਧੰਨੁ ਗੁਰਦੇਵ ॥ ਧੰਨੁ ਅਨਾਦਿ ਭੂਖੇ ਕਵਲੁ ਟਹਕੇਵ ॥ ਧਨੁ ਓਇ ਸੰਤ ਜਿਨ ਐਸੀ ਜਾਨੀ ॥ ਤਿਨ ਕਉ ਮਿਲਿਬੋ ਸਾਰਿੰਗਪਾਨੀ ॥੧॥ ਆਦਿ ਪੁਰਖ ਤੇ ਹੋਇ ਅਨਾਦਿ ॥ ਜਪੀਐ ਨਾਮੁ ਅੰਨ ਕੈ ਸਾਦਿ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥ ਜਪੀਐ ਨਾਮੁ ਜਪੀਐ ਅੰਨੁ ॥ ਅੰਭੈ ਕੈ ਸੰਗਿ ਨੀਕਾ ਵੰਨੁ ॥ ਅੰਨੈ ਬਾਹਰਿ ਜੋ ਨਰ ਹੋਵਹਿ ॥ ਤੀਨਿ ਭਵਨ ਮਹਿ ਅਪਨੀ ਖੋਵਹਿ ॥੨॥ ਛੋਡਹਿ ਅੰਨੁ ਕਰਹਿ ਪਾਖੰਡ ॥ ਨਾ ਸੋਹਾਗਨਿ ਨਾ ਓਹਿ ਰੰਡ ॥ ਜਗ ਮਹਿ ਬਕਤੇ ਦੂਧਾਧਾਰੀ ॥ ਗੁਪਤੀ ਖਾਵਹਿ ਵਟਿਕਾ ਸਾਰੀ ॥੩॥ ਅੰਨੈ ਬਿਨਾ ਨ ਹੋਇ ਸੁਕਾਲੁ ॥ ਤਜਿਐ ਅੰਨਿ ਨ ਮਿਲੈ ਗੁਪਾਲੁ ॥ ਕਹੁ ਕਬੀਰ ਹਮ ਐਸੇ ਜਾਨਿਆ ॥ ਧੰਨੁ ਅਨਾਦਿ ਠਾਕੁਰ ਮਨੁ ਮਾਨਿਆ ॥੪॥੮॥੧੧॥ { ਰਾਗ ਗੋਂਡ, ਭਗਤ ਕਬੀਰ ਜੀ, ਪੰਨਾ 873} ਅੰਨੁ ਨ ਖਾਹਿ ਦੇਹੀ ਦੁਖੁ ਦੀਜੈ ॥ ਬਿਨੁ ਗੁਰ ਗਿਆਨ ਤ੍ਰਿਪਤਿ ਨਹੀ ਥੀਜੈ ॥ ਮਨਮੁਖਿ ਜਨਮੈ ਜਨਮਿ ਮਰੀਜੈ ॥ (ਮ: 1, 905) ਨਉਮੀ ਨੇਮੁ ਸਚੁ ਜੇ ਕਰੈ ॥ ਕਾਮ ਕ੍ਰੋਧੁ ਤ੍ਰਿਸਨਾ ਉਚਰੈ ॥ ਦਸਮੀ ਦਸੇ ਦੁਆਰ ਜੇ ਠਾਕੈ ਏਕਾਦਸੀ ਏਕੁ ਕਰਿ ਜਾਣੈ ॥ ਦੁਆਦਸੀ ਪੰਚ ਵਸਗਤਿ ਕਰਿ ਰਾਖੈ ਤਉ ਨਾਨਕ ਮਨੁ ਮਾਨੈ ॥ ਐਸਾ ਵਰਤੁ ਰਹੀਜੈ ਪਾਡੇ ਹੋਰ ਬਹੁਤੁ ਸਿਖ ਕਿਆ ਦੀਜੈ ॥ {ਪੰਨਾ 1245} ਵਰਤ ਨੇਮ ਮਜਨ ਤਿਸੁ ਪੂਜਾ ॥ ਬੇਦ ਪੁਰਾਨ ਤਿਨਿ ਸਿੰਮ੍ਰਿਤਿ ਸੁਨੀਜਾ ॥ ਮਹਾ ਪੁਨੀਤ ਜਾ ਕਾ ਨਿਰਮਲ ਥਾਨੁ ॥ ਸਾਧਸੰਗਤਿ ਜਾ ਕੈ ਹਰਿ ਹਰਿ ਨਾਮੁ ॥੨॥ {ਪੰਨਾ 393} ਸਿੰਮ੍ਰਿਤਿ ਸਾਸਤ੍ਰ ਬਹੁ ਕਰਮ ਕਮਾਏ ਪ੍ਰਭ ਤੁਮਰੇ ਦਰਸ ਬਿਨੁ ਸੁਖੁ ਨਾਹੀ ॥੧॥ ਵਰਤ ਨੇਮ ਸੰਜਮ ਕਰਿ ਥਾਕੇ ਨਾਨਕ ਸਾਧ ਸਰਨਿ ਪ੍ਰਭ ਸੰਗਿ ਵਸੈ ॥੨॥੨॥੧੫੧॥{ਪੰਨਾ 408} ਇਕਿ ਤੀਰਥਿ ਨਾਵਹਿ ਅੰਨੁ ਨ ਖਾਵਹਿ ॥ ਇਕਿ ਅਗਨਿ ਜਲਾਵਹਿ ਦੇਹ ਖਪਾਵਹਿ ॥ ਰਾਮ ਨਾਮ ਬਿਨੁ ਮੁਕਤਿ ਨ ਹੋਈ ਕਿਤੁ ਬਿਧਿ ਪਾਰਿ ਲੰਘਾਈ ਹੇ ॥ {ਪੰਨਾ 1024} What is Fasting, Upvasa? There are numerous, varieties of fasts in the religious traditions of India, not possible to calculate the exact number, how many there are? Fasting refers to the denial of food and drink for a specified time while keeping the mind in a particular emotional state. Fasting is based on human desires, which are related to their belief that they are devoted to God, demi-God, or the one they worship and want to achieve divine favor through their ability to fast. There are numerous rituals centering on the worship of multiple gods and goddesses in the Puranic ideology, where devotees practice certain methods to please individual Gods. Some of these include Navratri, Shivaratri, Janmashtami, Karva Chauth, Ahoi, and Ekadashi. Karwa Chauth Vrata Hindu married women fast on the fourth day of the waning moon in the month of Kartik, known as Karva Chauth. They have a happy procession in the early morning just before sunrise. A pre-dawn meal known as 'Sargi' is also sent by their parents where they consume food items before sunrise. In this meal, fennel seeds and fruits are offered, and the moon is worshiped. Secondly, fasting women do not take in any food or drink for the entire day. They worship the moon using a clay pot and break the fast by looking at their husband’s faces at night. The keeping of a clay pot represents the wife’s loyalty to her husband, which is a representation of how she was malleable and unformed like a clay pot at the time of the wedding and has remained true to her chosen mate. The tradition puts a lot of importance on morality and yet, why don’t men also have a tradition to show their morality? This tradition keeps gender unbalanced and may create an impression that women are servants of men though this does not necessarily say anything about the woman’s husband’s moral character. Traditions of Karwa Chauth Suhagans (married women) have plates of honey, almonds, dates, and money (Beya) before breaking their fast in the evening. This ritual is done after the sunset. These women dressed in red attires with makeup, sit in the circle. Later on, they share the 'Beya' from their plates with each other. The image of the moon is placed in the middle of the moon-like circular formation. All the women pay their homage from their place of seat and offer prasad from their plates. Eventually, they pass the plates around the circle. In Punjab's folk tradition, they keep singing in Punjabi like; ਕਰਵੜਾ ਨੀ ਕਰਵੜਾ ਲੈ ਨੀ ਭੈਣੇ ਕਰਵੜਾ, ਲੈ ਵੀਰੋ ਕੁੜੀਏ ਕਰਵੜਾ, ਲੈ ਸਰਬ ਸੁਹਾਗਣ ਕਰਵੜਾ, ਲੈ ਇੱਛਾਵੰਤੀ ਕਰਵੜਾ, ਲੈ ਭਾਈਆਂ ਦੀ ਭੈਣੇ ਕਰਵੜਾ, ਕੱਤੀਂ ਨਾ ਅਟੇਰੀਂ ਨਾ, ਘੁੰਮ ਚਰਖੜਾ ਫੇਰੀਂ ਨਾ, ਸੁੱਤੇ ਨੂੰ ਜਗਾਈਂ ਨਾ, ਰੁੱਸੇ ਨੂੰ ਮਾਨਈਂ ਨਾ, ਪਾਟੜਾ ਸੀਵੀਂ ਨਾ ਕਰਵੜਾ ਵਟਾਇਆ, ਜਿਵੰਦਾ ਝੋਲੀ ਪਾਇਆ... During singing this particular song, Brahmin performs a ritual of worship and takes something from each plate. Story of Karwa Chauth The story associated with Karva Chauth goes as follows: A long time ago there was a king with a queen named Veero. She loved her sister Vero who was the daughter of their stepmother. Once, during a Karva Chauth fast, Veero saw that the moon was hidden for a long time. Veero’s brothers couldn’t bear their sister’s hunger, therefore, they made a fire in the forest, and spread their cloth sheet, so that Veero could see the moon through a sieve. Veero thought she was right and Veero broke her fast. However, the king had left the palace earlier to go hunting, and thorns from the forest pierced him 365 times, making him unconscious. Sad indeed, the queen picked up the body of her husband and started plucking the thorns one at a time. A year passed before the king regained consciousness. In the end, the queen finally pulled out 364 thorns from the king’s body. This is how the origin of Karva Chauth took place. At this point, a bangle seller came around and caused a fuss outside. The queen went shopping for bangles, leaving the last thorn on the king’s body to be removed by the maid. Therefore, the king assumed that the maid was his queen. Unfortunately, this meant that the real queen had to serve as a servant. She made dolls out of a piece of cloth, and played with it, repeatedly saying, ‘Rani Si So Golli Hoi, Golli Si So Rani Hoi’ ਰਾਣੀ ਸੀ ਸੋ ਗੋਲੀ ਹੋਈ, ਗੋਲੀ ਸੀ ਸੋ ਰਾਣੀ ਹੋਈ which means the queen became maid, and the maid became queen. Later on, the lie was discovered and the real queen was reinstated.' Examination of this story and the Karva Chauth rituals brings about many questions. Which king was mentioned in the story? What country was his kingdom and when did these things happen? On what basis were there 365 pricking thorns on him and why was no doctor invited to remove these thorns? Why were 364 thorns plucked off while only one remained, and why did the king regain consciousness after the last thorn was removed? After removing the first 364 thorns why couldn’t he wake? Is a husband allowed to marry another wife if his wife fails to take care of him for one day, as shown in the story of the king? Spiritual Significance These questions are never fully addressed by the story and the Karva Chauth rituals, which have no element of fact or religion. There are a number of notable issues that must be considered in this whole process. Firstly, fasting and abstaining from food and water in order to fulfill a desire or wish is not in accordance with Gurbani. It also discourages obstinate actions because the Lord cannot be pleased in this manner. These acts are often imagined products and are not truly religious. Guru Granth Sahib Says, 'ਮਨਹਠਿ ਕਰਮ ਕਰੇ ਸੋ ਛੀਜੈ॥ ਬਹੁਤੇ ਭੇਖ ਕਰੇ ਨਹੀ ਭੀਜੈ॥' (ਪੰਨਾ-1059) 'ਮਨਹਠਿ ਕਰਮ ਕਮਾਵਦੇ ਨਿਤ ਨਿਤ ਹੋਹਿ ਖੁਆਰੁ॥ ਅੰਤਰਿ ਸਾਂਤਿ ਨ ਆਵਈ ਨਾ ਸਚਿ ਲਗੈ ਪਿਆਰੁ॥' (ਪੰਨਾ-66) The second idea revolves around the belief that fasting with demands and wishes causes a long life for one’s husband. On the other hand, this goes against the normal way of affairs. Is it really possible to achieve a longer lifespan by fasting? Would it not be as if one was trying to please God with starvation against nature’s will? Can anyone imagine a benevolent God known as a mother, father, and guardian, taking pleasure in witnessing a person’s hunger? If fasting was truly related to longevity, there would be so many people in this nation whose lives should be exceedingly long owing to the lack of food. However, this is not true. The teachings of Gurbani highlight the need for understanding, accepting, and living in line with nature. The truth is that every person is born to die. This is an indisputable fact, and no one can avoid this unavoidable fate. As many spiritual traditions suggest, fasting or observing Vratas can have physical health benefits. Nevertheless, when fasting is purely motivated by desires and the hope of being rewarded by God, it ceases to be a genuine spiritual practice. 'ਜੋ ਆਇਆ ਸੋ ਚਲਸੀ ਸਭੁ ਕੋਈ ਆਈ ਵਾਰੀਐ॥' (ਪੰਨਾ-474) 'ਬਾਦਿਸਾਹ ਸਾਹ ਵਾਪਾਰੀ ਮਰਨਾ॥ ਜੋ ਦੀਸੈ ਸੋ ਕਾਲਹਿ ਖਰਨਾ॥' (ਪੰਨਾ-740) Is it possible for one's actions to extend another person's life? Can our efforts truly alter the fundamental laws of nature? 'ਧੁਰਿ ਲਿਖਿਆ ਮੇਟਿ ਨ ਸਕੀਐ ਜੋ ਹਰਿ ਲਿਖਿ ਪਾਇਆ॥' (ਪੰਨਾ-789) Read the full article
