Agree 100% with the second - she needs to make a life for herself.
BUT why should she leave? Why should she be homeless and rely on other people's generosity - mother, friends, etc?
I can't understand this mentality --- Pati ka ghar???!!!! She has given 25 years of her life to the house. She was not a paid servant. It is her home as much as his. If someone has to leave, Vanraj should go and live with Kavya
She should live there for as long as she wants to and use the time to build her life.
If everyone got to know everything on day 1, there is no drama. Don't care whether she tells anyone or not.
I agree with you, Anupama does not need to leave. Vanraj can leave if he wants to go live with Kavya. He can dole out alimony to Anupama and child support for Paakhi, she is still underage.
Anything Vanraj has earned or saved during these 25 years belongs equally to Anupama. If she wasn’t taking care of the household, Vanraj would not have been free enough or had the time he had to focus and further his career. Without her, his success would not have been possible and so his success belongs to her too and is half hers.
I wrote this on another post and am posting it here as well -
“Vanraj’s dignity? There is no dignity about Vanraj, not even scraps of any left.
But half the house is Anupama’s, she has lived and slaved there for 25 years, yes, this is 2020, so Vanraj can leave if he wants to... Anupama does not need to leave until she feels safe financially and emotionally and even then only if she wants to leave.
A mother’s house sure will welcome Anupama but they are not well off and she will be a financial hardship for them. Devika might be a great friend and may support Anupama emotionally and financially but for how long? And will Anupama not feel indebted in both instances?
Anyway, why should Anupama leave her children (she is not a young woman with little children whom she can take with her) and the safe haven of a home she has also contributed to build and leave just because that cheat two-timed her? She can live separately from him in the same house and make an identity for herself, which will take time realistically speaking.
In some countries if you are married for ten years in a community property state, anything the couple owns becomes joint property and that is how I view the Shah house, it is as much Anupama’s as Vanraj’s. If Vanraj does not like that, he can go take a hike.”
