Is the show trying to gaslight us by having Anupamaa say things like that?
Freakin Vanraj Shah who menacingly walks towards his wives in arguments.. Certainly uses the threat of physical violence to tame his women despite being a Bhai. He put his wife through the trauma of an unwanted pregnancy. Indulged in financial, emotional, and mental abuse galore. His mother threatens to slap his wives everyday, and 'villains' like Toshu & Kavya are the only people to find it odd.
Really, Anupamaa? Tumhare sath aisa kuch nahi hua? Please bring back Devika to call this character out on her $h!t. Rightfully said, Anupamaa jitni progressive hai usse zada regressive hai.
For them to reel the average-Indian-woman audience in with 'relatable' financial/emotional/mental abuse.. Only to negate it a year later. THE AUDIENCE IS IN AN ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIP WITH THIS SHOW! 🤡
