Desi Bling vs Dubai Bling
Part of the enjoyment of Dubai Bling is that most of the drama is between friends but husband and wife defend eachother. Most of the drama in Desi Bling is between husband and wife and no one has loyalty.
I’m actually disgusted that this is the representation that’s being shown out there in the world. The men do not seem to respect their wives in the slightest and the wives don’t respect themselves.
Dyuti is actively gaslighting his wife while he stays out past 6am and she can’t even divorce him because she won’t get 50/50 as he’s put everything in his Mom’s name. Binda is excusing her husband as long as he parties with “different girls every weekend.” The rest of them are just embarrassing (other than the twins).
It’s frustrating for me as diaspora because we have to deal with so much anti-Indian racism on a daily basis in public and here we have our own men disrespecting our women proudly and our own women disrespecting themselves.
I’m assuming that because this show is produced by non-Desi’s there have been biases that allowed such negative edits (I’m sure we all notice how Farhana is treated vs the rest of the Dubai Bling cast) but it’s still frustrating to me because people are already so hateful towards us…what do you think?
