So, my guess was right, she is a theatre veteran. But I feel as if I have seen her in some Doordarshan serial before, but do not know which one.
It definately is a complex emotions she was potraying and she did excellent. I understand all those emotions so well because I too see this happening in my home. The otherday when she was scolding Simi for the looks and that 'how stupid she looks with her mouth open', I have heard all these in my home
:(
She is so right in a way that Parents want the best for their children and nothing else. Who else would look for grooms for their daughters and all her worries for the unseen/uncertain future they all have. But she is so wrong in thinking that Simi should go ahead with the marriage with that animal called Rajiv Bhalla because they would not be considered to be part of the society if something unusual (calling off the marriage at the Mandap) is done.
