Traditionally, the sasur-bahu relationship has been portrayed as strained, with the mother-in-law being depicted as strict, dominating, and sometimes cruel. The daughter-in-law, on the other hand, is often shown as submissive, obedient, and eager to please her mother-in-law. However, this portrayal is not always accurate, and the reality is often more nuanced.
This study provides insights into the impact of reality TV shows on Indian society, using "Saas-Bahu MMS" as a case study. The findings suggest that reality TV shows have the potential to shape public discourse and influence social attitudes, but also highlight the need for responsible and sensitive portrayal of social issues. The study recommends that TV producers and broadcasters take a more nuanced and thoughtful approach to creating reality TV shows, one that balances entertainment with social responsibility. sasur bahu mms
