Thinking Activity on the scarlet letter and movie Kya kehna

Task  :  
 Kya kehna is a 2000 indian Hindi drama film. directed by kundan shah. The film stars preity zinta as a single teenage mother and salfali khan as the father, with chandrachar singh,  Arupam kher and farida jalal playing supporting roles. 

Movie Kya kehna  is Dealt with Taboo. Similar kind of story we could find in The  Scarlett letter. In this film Hester same situation or problems face in her life. In Scarlett letter. In Scarlett letter we could find that how that time of society was so much Orthodox even they gave punishment to the women. Because that time any women pregnant before marriage so that time of society called as sin. Another point is that in both movies "Scarlett letter " and "Kya Kehna " we could find that how upper class people always escape from all the people. In kya kehna movie  hero of the film.He does not face any kind of problems even he enjoyed life very well. And similar in Scarlett letter we also find that Arthur who is lover of Hester and father of baby girl. He doesn't face any problems from the society that is patriarchal power. If we talked about climax of the films than we can see that in Indian film "kya kehna" Rahul regret for his mistake but end of the movie heroine marry with childhood friend. And in "Scarlett letter " Arthur  also regret for his mistake and he accept Hester as wife in front of crowd that is brave of Arthur. So in both the films end is totally different but I would like to say that in Hindi movie "Kya kehna " is more concider for me.
In both movies we could find the brave of women identity. They fight against the patriarchal power in the both the films.
*  What are the names of the protagonists in both the works?
-  The character of Hester prynne is protagonist of the novel, ' Scarlet letter ' and the character of priya Bakshi is protagonists of the movie 'kya kehna'.
