Mahi12 -- I have a different view on this
1. Jagya decided to change his name to jagat even before he went to medical college. There was a scene where the ladies were applying mehendi to anandi, and then he started calling her to him, so she went to him, and he had written "Jagat" on his hand and he showed it to her saying that he would change his name to Jagat when he went to the city because it was more modern than Jagadish. She was really puzzled and repeated it loud and he hushed her.
Anyway, the name Jagat was not changed because of the ragging/bullying. I think he had already carved out an alter-ego for himself subconsciously.
2. Now agreed that during the bullying he lied about his identity. For me, that part is okay. After all if he is ragged, and the raggers are not his friends he need not reveal anything about himself to them. Ragging will last one or two weeks and then these people will disappear ... so if he felt like lying about it well and good... that part I have no issue with during the ragging period.
3. However, after he lied about it, he should have taken anandi into confidence (that is if he intended to be her husband) and told her that here people think he has no wife...and he should also have explained why he needed to lie about her.
I was enrolled in a graduate program and had to take a leave of absence due to some unfortunate personal circumstances. This delayed my graduation by two years. During this time, friends and family asked my brother about my progress ... and he didnt want to open up the story to people who really had no business knowing about anything ... so he lied and said i had completed it. That was the end of that... but he told me that he had said this to family members because he wanted to avoid all sorts of questions... particularly when they did not know. But I knew about what he has said to them.
4. If he really loved anandi, I think the ragging was just two weeks, and even if he lied about his status initially he could later have faked being just married to her at the age of 20 or something, saying that he was marrying his village sweetheart now. The people who ragged him would nowhere be around, and nobody would look into his story to see if anandi was his child bride or his immediate bride. Lalsingh knew, but he wasnt a blabber mouth.
5. Finally, even if he lied about his marital status at the ragging incident, he could have opened up to gauri only (in private) when it came to such a critical point in their relationship where she wanted an answer from him as to whether he was interested or not.
My view is that neither child marriage nor the ragging and city life are jagat's issue. And he is a victim of neither.
his real issue is that he has no value system and he has no integrity. he also has no empathy and no conscience.
