Meera Deosthale reflects on the pressure of dowry demands in households

Actress Meera Deosthale recently shared how the character she portrays in the show ‘Kuch Reet Jagat Ki Aisi Hai’ resonates with her own personality traits. The show highlights Nandini’s journey as she takes a stand against dowry and customs that devalue women.

Meera expressed, “There were multiple personality traits that resonated with me, which made it easy for me to bring out the essence of Nandini.” She emphasized being compassionate yet opinionated like Nandini, who stands up for what she believes in and speaks her mind without hesitation.

Growing up witnessing the negative impacts of dowry in society and her own household, Meera found the concept of the show relatable. She mentioned how parents often save up money or gold for their daughters to offer as dowry, a practice that has always concerned her.

As someone who understands the importance of valuing women beyond material possessions, Meera strongly supports Nandini’s stance against dowry. The show, based in Gujarat, sheds light on important social issues and airs on Sony, featuring a powerful narrative that resonates with audiences.
