She listens to all the taunts and tries to be a perfect daughter in law. But never has she tried to under stand what her husband thinks of her and he's able to have an affair right under her nose. To the extent of getting his gf home.. seriously which wife will see all this and still believe her husband is a devta.
Yes, definitely Vanraj and Kavya are at fault. Anupama is the victim here and I cannot blame her just because she is naive and trusting.
If Vanraj wants a different kind of wife -
1. He should lay down his expectations - he wants Anupama to converse in English, then he should enable that, give her time to take classes and learn and improve. He on the other hand yelled at her for even stepping out with her friends once in 25 years.
2. If Vanraj has expectations of Anupama, he should be willing and ready to listen to her expectations for/from him as well - be a kind, caring husband who can be appreciative at least once in a while and not treat her like a chattel.
3. If Vanraj has fallen out of love or has never loved Anupama and wants out from this arrangement/marriage - he needs to be honest about it, break ties with her, get a divorce and then pursue Kavya.
Nothing gives Vanraj the right to have his cake and eat it too - treat Anupama like his personal slave and the family’s servant, encourage the kids to put her down, talk belittlingly to her all the time, be harsh and contemptuous of her, and cheat and be deceitful and two time her with Kavya. He is a slimy cheat and he has no excuse to have this extra marital affair.
As for Kavya, she is an opportunist, she used Vanraj for her own selfish reasons, personal, emotional, career wise, and wormed her way into the Shah home, belittled Anupama’s position with both Toshu and Pakhi and now is acting irrationally unhinged from snatching Anupama’s sari to wiping Vanraj’s name off Anupama’s palm to pussyfooting right under Anupama’s nose flirting and carrying on with a married man.
Vanraj and Kavya are both to be blamed and shamed, Vanraj more so because he is the husband and has vows he has made to Anupama. Kavya is to be blamed for cheating on Anirudh even if he knows about it and for deceiving Anupama.
The two are immoral selfish people who care only about their own obsession and satisfaction over everyone else’s happiness. Disgusting characters, both.
