Brut India

“Get married.” “Settle down.” Hearing these things might be funny sometimes but it’s no joke for many women…

00:00Papa, would you like to see something?

00:02Yes, the face of your son-in-law.

00:05Papa, I am ordering something, would you like to eat?

00:07What?

00:08Your wedding sweets.

00:09Papa, there is a sale going on, do you want to put anything in the wish list?

00:12I have bought sherwani for you to wear at your wedding.

00:15Okay, do you want to go somewhere for darshan?

00:17Yes.

00:18Tell me.

00:19To your wedding dais.

00:21What kind of a boy do you want for me?

00:23Just the one who tolerates you.

00:26Papa, it is useless to talk to you.

00:30My third son is really annoyed.

00:38Neighbours, family friends, friends, they have just one thing to say, get married.

00:44My aunt tells me that if you don't get married now, you will only be left with leftover boys.

00:50When are you getting married? Get married soon.

00:53Who will ask you about your friends' wedding?

00:55If you don't get married, who will support you in old age?

00:58Settle down.

00:59I have heard, I have got married.

01:01The marriage was abusive, I got out of it.

01:04And now I am hearing it again.

01:05Why? Because my father is growing old.

01:08My mom was diagnosed with cancer.

01:11People would come and visit us.

01:13They had just one thing to say, get married.

01:16Why? Because mom wants to see you get married.

01:19My mother never wanted me to get married so early.

01:22Marriage doesn't mean just settle down.

01:24Why I don't want to settle down?

01:26Exactly, it has the word down in it.

01:28I don't want to settle down in life.

01:30I don't want to settle down with somebody.

01:32I'd rather grow, blossom and bloom with somebody.

01:35I have my own set of goals, my aspirations.

01:38You know, people think that marriage completes a woman.

01:42But I don't think that's true.

01:43I don't believe that any woman is incomplete.

01:46I am not a broken jigsaw piece puzzle looking for my missing piece in a man.

01:51In spite of having a very bad experience myself,

01:54I still believe in the concept of love, marriage, companionship.

01:57But I think we should be more accepting.

01:59The society needs to accept single women or single men

02:02or people who want to live single with more open arms.

02:05There has to be more space and room for them.
