"Ladkiyan Itna Padh Likh...": 'Indian Matchmaking' Fame Sima Taparia's Shocking Remark Against Women Who Want Divorce
'Indian Matchmaking' fame Sima Taparia has made a shocking comment against women who want to take divorce.
Who doesn't know Sima Taparia? However, if you are one of those who is not aware about her, then let us remind you about her first. Sima Taparia is a Mumbai-based matchmaker who famously introduces herself as "Sima Taparia from Mumbai." She rose to fame with her show 'Indian Matchmaking' on Netflix. During her stint on the show, she was criticised by some for her controversial comments and problematic views.
In the latest entertainment news, in an interview with Mashable India, Sima Taparia discussed topics such as divorce, the differences between NRIs (Non-Resident Indians) and Indians, and much more.
When asked about the difference between NRIs and Indians, she said: "NRI’s can’t spread their wings everywhere because they have a lot of work to do. They have to do the house chores, drive their car, work in the office and cook for themselves. We are free birds in India, we are so lucky that we get domestic help here. So we can do many other things.”
During the interview, Sima Taparia also ended up making a colourist comment, when she talked about a matchmaking case involving a man from South India.
“There is a very influential family in the South, their son is very dark. In the South, people are generally dark. His mom’s criteria list was very long. But thankfully they got the girl they exactly wished for. Not many people have such criteria but who doesn’t want a beautiful daughter-in-law," said Sima.
In another bit from the interview, Sima Taparia made yet another problematic statement, saying girls who are highly educated are not willing to listen to anybody else, and divorces happen because there is no patience.
"People are divorcing because there is no patience, no adjustment, egoism, ladkiya itna padh likh lete hai toh they say why should I listen to anybody ," she said.
"I do a lot matching for desis abroad, I get a lot of calls from people in the US. I don’t do matchmaking for Christians, Parsi and Muslims… mere pas hai nahi. But I choose and pick because I can’t do it for everybody. Jiska package aacha ho mereko usee type ka aaega na toh mein usse type ka match karte hu," she added.
