Priyasakhi Climax Roast

Priyasakhi Movie's Climax Roast ✊

Priyasakhi one-liner plot: 

• An adult man couldn't leave his mom and family... 
• But still wants a wife and a kid, villainizing her for wanting an independent life with him.

Yep, the whole movie is a big pain in the neck. But the climax takes the cake for being the biggest pain in the a$$.

So, toward the end, Priya (Sada), realizes that:

• She loves her daughter and couldn't abandon her
• She can't finalize the divorce and give full child custody to Sakhi (Madhavan) and his family. 

When she says that she can't leave her 3 month old daughter, Sakhi reveals the absurdity of the Indian family system.

"You feel pain for leaving your child you gave birth to only 3 months ago. I'm 30. You tried to separate me from my family. How much pain I must have felt?"

Hello, didn't Priya leave her family after marrying Sakhi? If men can't leave their families after becoming a married adult, maybe they could just stay with their family - AND STAY UNMARRIED.

Lol, equating himself - an adult who became a father - to a breastfeeding baby. What is this? Babies and adult men are equally needy?

Sakhi is seemingly proud of not outgrowing the baby to toddler stage. But he want a woman as a wife and children through her

Ean da ipdi irkinga?

"You said this house is hell. Then why do you want to stay here? Your heaven is waiting there. Go."

Like all married women in Indian society, Priya accepted the hell her husband's family is as her heaven. And she was portrayed as evil for wanting a semblance of her life before marriage - independent.

• Sakhi's life didn't change. 
• He doesn't have to change a thing. 
• Priya has to change everything but is evil for wanting to live like she used to in certain aspects.

"What's the big fight among us? She says I read her diary. But she has written rubbish in it."

• Indian men are often clueless about boundaries when it comes to women. 
• Whenever I don't see or reply to their messages, they just straight up video call me. 
• Often, they disrupt my sleep, work, and meetings at work. 

No matter what she wrote in her diary, it's her personal thing. You can be her husband and yet, you must KEEP OUT.

"If you expected me to be like your father, always submissive to your mother, I wouldn't have married you!"

Agreed. No one should submit to their partner. But Sakhi wanted Priya to toe his line - he wanted her to be like her submissive father and he is like her dominant mother. Well, guess Charlie Kirk would've loved this scene.

"You didn't want this baby. From where did this love sprout all of a sudden?"

• That's her body.
• Her choice. 
• But Sakhi forced her to have the child. 

Y'all gotta watch the show, "I Didn't Know I was Pregnant." 

• It's a show about cryptic pregnancy. 
• The women didn't experience signs of pregnancy and only realized that they're having a baby when they went into labor. They kept the kid they didn't want.

 

I became a dog mom unexpectedly when I was 16. I didn't want a dog. He just came into my life and I loved him. 

"You failed as a man because you let your wife lord over you."

This emotional film is just a choir echoing Indian patriarchy. 

• It reiterates again and again that women must be submissive and adjust. 
• And men must dominate and keep women in their place.

But all of it is done so subtly, disguised as love and family values:

• I didn't have the tongue to discern it when this movie was released. 
• But we don't stay clueless and tongue-less for long, do we?

Agreed, Sakhi's family isn't toxic. But Priya felt her freedom, self respect and self expression are restricted. 

She's expected to adjust and change her entire lifestyle for the comfort of his family - she's married to him, not to his family.

He liked her when she was in short dresses only. Now, he wants her to change her wardrobe so his family would approve?

Reminder:

• We can still be good daughters-in-law if we live separately.
• Just like sons-in-law can.

Often, the sons-in-law don't even try in our society due to "mappilai murukku" (son-in-law's ego).

Quote: 
Familiarity breeds contempt.

Distance makes the heart fonder.

It's unfair to expect a woman a man marries to:

• Stay with his family.
• Take care of his family.

Women have families too. We have responsibility toward our families just like men do. 

• And if we can fulfill our responsibilities by staying separately from our families...
• So can men.

You're free to always stay with your family.

Just don't get married!
