Are Aryaan and Mariam being an old filmi-style couple by sacrificing not meeting each other for Sherry’s sake or does this part of the story hold some merit to it? Does this happen in today’s world?
Jhoom is one drama that keeps making us think about many valid, relevant, and thought-provoking points throughout the episodes.
While Sherry is a negative character but his questions about Aryaan and his reservations seem valid, one cannot help but wonder, why didn’t Aryaan tell Mariam about his past, especially when Mariam had told him all about her past.
Additionally, there was no need to overreact and get aggressive on this query. While we must normalize the treatment of depression and anxiety and stop holding it against people who have suffered from it, such information must be disclosed in certain situations like sending a marriage proposal to someone
The drama does a great job of highlighting how we as a society make life so difficult for people who have been through some sort of therapy, possibly making them regress to the very condition they might have been successful in overcoming. Like Aryaan says “ kabhi aap jeet ker bhi haar jatay hain”. Landing gainful employment becomes near impossible for such people.
Is it okay for Sherry to ask Aryaan and Mariam not to meet for three months? Is it even realistic that they do not meet at all?
Mariam is the eldest sister and a person with her own position and values, should she really be catering to Sherry’s illogical requests? Or are these requests really not that illogical after all and Aryaan does need to prove he can control his anger? One thing that Mariam and everyone keeps forgetting is that there is usually always a valid reason for Aryaan’s anger which of course, in no way justify his outbursts or the manner in which he chooses to express that anger.
