I feel apart from anupamas 2nd marriage everything else in the serial is regressive as shit. To name few.
1. Saas is always saas.
2. Have to be careful with spouses friends [kavyas relationship with vanraj]
3. End of the day wifes duties are measured in food/house duties.
4. Even though we want to improve. Societal and home needs will pull us back.
5. Irrespective of your financial status you cant be happy.
6. Sabji waali bacchi can be mistreated.
7. Adopted child is a toy that can be bet and played with.
8. Inlaws should be spared irrespective of their mistakes.
9. People are always behind money!!
Please feel free to add!
