The subtle Ashit Modi propaganda in TMKOC
Marathis are almost always shown as poor, selfish or miserly. The typical Maharashtrian characters outside the society are either the bhajiwali, kaamwali or some other working-class character. Meanwhile Gujaratis are constantly portrayed as helpful, brave, generous, business-minded and obviously rich.
Even Gujarati food is glazed to much on the show but irl its not even that great.
Then there’s Abdul. The show loves to preach about unity and “Hindu Muslim bhai bhai” but somehow Abdul is still the one Muslim character living outside the society. There isn’t even a proper Muslim family living in Gokuldham.
Punjabis get the usual stereotypes too, truck drivers, garage owners, loud personalities etc.
And why does literally nobody eat non-veg? Babita is Bengali and we’re supposed to believe she just happens to never eat fish or meat? Even in a show where food is constantly discussed non-veg basically doesn’t exist unless it’s being used as a joke.
The women are another thing. Almost none of them have an independent career or identity outside the home. Madhavi is basically the exception and even she is shown working because apparently the Bhide family needs the extra income.
