Mrs. Arati Kadav investigates the ongoing gender dynamics in Indian homes and critically looks at the patriarchal foundations of the Karwa Chauth celebration. Based on Richa’s fasting for her husband’s well-being, a Hindi version of The Great Indian Kitchen shows the emotional and physical toll on women, especially. Using this custom as a metaphor for unreciprocated sacrifices, Kadav questions society standards allowing women’s suffering under the guise of love and obligation. Mrs. challenges viewers to reevaluate the cultural activities that still support patriarchal systems, therefore sparking significant conversations on the junction of tradition and gender inequity.
