Is Sumitra right? - Page 3

Sumitra is right from her perspective. From the beginning, the Ganga track was depicted unrealistically in the serial when they showed Ganga being given a place to stay with the Singhs. The Singh family has always encouraged Anandi when she helped out people like Phooli and Gulli, but they did not bring any of them home. Ganga should have been shifted to an Ashram at the very beginning, or given accommodation like Gulli.

Sumitra was kind and receptive of Ganga in the beginning. She used to be shown holding Mannu and taking care of him.

The way the other Singhs were repeatedly comparing Ganga with Anandi was again unrealistic, which began to annoy Sumitra.

And after knowing that Ratan was behind the attack, Ganga should have made plans to leave the haveli. She should have voiced her fears to Bhairon and Dadi sa, and they would have helped her shift elsewhere until she could join the nursing course safely. Instead she spent her time planning birthday parties, baking cakes, dancing and competing for Jagya's attention, and then weeping over him.

She cannot be blamed for getting attracted to Jagya but her intense emotions for her benefactor seem weird when she first needs to ensure her and her child's safefty and also get closure from her forced relationship with Ratan - either way, the law would have granted her divorce and custody of the kid. If the creatives had shown Ganga getting a divorce, studying and moving on and very gradually developing feelings for Jagya - , it would have been more realistic and acceptable. Now the story is a mess.

Ganga is being highlighted as a suitable partner for Jagya when compared to Sanchi who is a scheming brat. What if the Singhs had found a really suitable rishta for Jagya - a girl who was good, gentle and well mannered (she may or may not be a divorcee / widow), and would have been compatible with Jagya's lifestyle and goals?

Sumitra's fears were grounded in reality, and she had clearly expressed her concerns to Bhairon. It was sad to see her berated so harshly by both her husband and son for the sake of a third person to whom the whole family had been charitable. Of course, letting Ganga go in the middle of the night was not correct. They should have asked her to wait till Jagya and Bhairon arrived, and after a joint discussion helped Ganga to leave the next morning to a safe place from where she can go for her nursing course. That would have been characteristic of the charitable and humanitarian nature of the Singhs (characteristic as in based upon their kindness to Phooli, Gulli etc).

In my opinion her fears are right, but the way she is blindly listening to sanchi and cursing ganga for everything is not correct. She was once a character who I thought would never change. Very sad to see sumi turning like this 😲
