![]() And sometimes, the drama continues even after the wedding. In most cases, including Nenjam Marappathillai (Vijay TV), Raja Rani (Vijay TV), Aranmanai Kili (Vijay TV), the hero and the heroine get married forced by circumstances. Not that other channels lag behind with this trope. In the hugely popular Sembaruthi (Zee Tamil), the wedding again happened amid drama, with the hero tying the knot to the domestic worker he is in love with, hoodwinking his mother. In Kanmani (Sun TV), the heroine’s wedding is stopped twice – both times after some drama. ![]() In Priyamanaval (Sun TV), the drama continues after the wedding – bride Selvi’s family comes to know that groom Kumar’s brother faked horoscopes to get them married, and the couple continue to live separately. Perpetuating hierarchies: Serials encourage liberal use of degrading terms like Velaikkari (to refer to a domestic worker) even if the domestic worker has graduated to playing heroine.
