Anupama had a great rapport with her father. He gave her the space to explore, to dream his untimely death had made their life a struggle. When Vanrajs grandmother brought the proposal she was happy and thought Anupama s life was 'Sett l ed'. Living in the same mohalla she could see her daughter live by the values she had crammed into her young head as a list of dos and donts.
In Shah House it has been Leela who rules the roost and acting the way Sarla was questioned by Anupama when she said Nasty things about her.
I'm sure if she heard from Bhavesh how Vanraj acted in the bhumu puja, she must have heard of the Dhandia and agnipariksha.
From the way she questions Leela on her Saas role one thinks that her struggles even now starting her papad, pickle business indicates she might accept Anupama has to move on.
My grandmother was widowed at 32 had to take care of her 4 children her orphaned nephews and nieces. In (1947). She put her 3 younger children through college education, worked as a supervisor in a factory. Was okay when her oldest son married an anglo Indian. When I used to chat with her I realises how life, ' s struggles had made her think way ahead of her times. She regretted how she couldn't do much when her oldest daughter was married off at 15. She l ived till the ripe old age of 90 and was the strongest supporter of path breaking decisions in the life of her children and grandchildren.
I am a strong believer that life's struggles teaches us how to and how not to treat others. Maybe anupama was treated well till the dadi saas was around which prompts her to think she had found more love in shah house.
