LAHORE – What Bhola does to Noorie cannot be justified in any manner, can it? Ranjha Ranjha Kardi is a great show with a great message. However, it failed to address marital rape in one of it’s episodes.
While Bholabreaks out, crying out loud and apologizing, but Fahmida took no serious action against him instead she told Noorie that this act meant that he was normal and had sexual desires.

Marital rape should be called out on instead of being treated as a normal occurrence. Our society is already very problematic this way.
Pakistan is among those countries where 70% women and girls experience physical or sexual violence in their lifetime by their intimate partners and 93% women experience some form of sexual violence in public places in their lifetime.
There is clearly a need of explanation that needs to be given for the non-discussion of rape in this episode.
Bhola is otherwise no doubt a loveable character.
