Ganga is not Anandi and she dont need to be Anandi. She is uniqe if one cant understand her or her feelings then they cant exprain her character too. I will always chose Ganga over Anandi even if Sriti not play this character coz Ganga know how to stand for herself.Originally posted by: rohini55
@5cents,
You are so perceptive normally, I'm surprised you have not understood my post. I did not imply that Anandi is not strong. If that was the case, I would not have ended my post by saying she will speak the truth -- as always -- in the court regardless of the cost to herself,I was looking at A's current position from the POV of others: Everyone expects her to speak the truth as they see it. J' s family wants her to defend J and speak the truth of coffeeshop. S's family wants her to oppose J and speak the truth from the POV of Sanch's pain and suicide attempt. In all this, somewhere, the concern for A -- from BH as well as Shiv -- has been lost.Take DS: she did support A after J's desertion and found Shiv for her. But once J returned, he was her priority. The day she saw his shoes -- on the day of A-Shiv engagement -- she was crazed with emotion for him. She was willing to sacrifice A even though she was the one who pushed her to Shiv. She asked her to dump S and marry J because she could not bear the pain of her pota. A's pain did not matter to her at all that point. She backstabbed S for J and was awfully glad when he came to call off the marriage. Where was her concern for A? It was Anandi who stood strong at that point and saved herself.DS used A to get J to agree to marriage. This despite knowing the delicate relationship between them. This is the genesis of the current crisis. After J-Ganga marriage she said A mattered to her but for just two days -- now its is back to MY Pota and he has to be saved -- even if A is the collateral victim.Once he is released via A's truth, she'd be sad for A but she'd be gladder for J. Her throwing him out etc was just for one day.Now for Bhairon. I respect him a lot but am somewhat disappointed in him now. He has unreservedly accepted J and says he is proud of him. Proud of what? That he filled G's maang in front of a whole big audience? And two days after he broke a six-month old engagement?. He could have told him, I accept that Sa is not suitable for you but the way you went about marrying G was not right. That would have been the OLD Bhairon..He has also disappointed me with his subtle EBing of A. Why did he tell her that J did not mention she was at the coffee house? This puts enormous pressure on her. This makes her hugely guilty and she will tell the truth at the cost of breaking up with Shiv. Is this not saving one rishta at the cost of another?.Of course A will tell the truth and nothing but the truth.that truth would have come out anyway -- because A is A.. She need not have been gently pressured by Bhairon or Ganga. On the other side, Shiv should have had the courage of conviction to say let her state the truth as she sees it. He is equally putting pressure on her.One wants her to save J at the cost of her relationship with her own husband; the husband wants her to defame J at the cost of her relationship with BH..About Ganga. She is a nice girl but she can never be A. A would have never accepted a man who filled her maang in the way J did with G. She would walked out in anger and not had anything to do with him till he repaired his relationship with every single person -- in BH and in KB. Instead she keeps telling J he did nothing wrong. Really, he did no wrong?.Jagya -- what can one say about a man who was so much in love with A that he refused to get married and wanted to spend the rest of his life in her memory? First he is in love with A, then in love with Gauri -- to whom he says I will love you till my dying day; this is true love not what I had with A. Then he gets back his love for A, tries all sorts of chicanery to snatch her from Shiv. He continues to pine for her after her marriage and tells her he cannot forget her till his dying day. He hugs Ganga thinking she is A.Two months later, Presto, he is in love with Ganga. And six months later, it is true love again with G, and once again the dialogue: till death do us part.WHY Anandi, why do you want to save this man? Are you not scared he will enact a fourth marriage and proclaim undying love to yet another woman?Sa is horrible and deserves to go to hell. But the fact is that people have forgotten J was engaged to her for SIX months during which time her family thought she had completely changed herself. That is what upsets Shiv. From his POV: he asked J if he had second thoughts on the engagement. J said he is fine with marrying Sa. He carried on the charade for six whole months, called Ira mummyji, promised never to hurt her and her daughter and then .broke up with Sa over the coffees house drama. Why would Shiv and family not believe he did this only because he was two-timing Sa with Ganga?. How can anyone,even A, accept the maang-bharo drama? Just two days after he breaks a six-month long engagement, he tells another woman he loves her to distraction and in full view of the former fiancee and her family. How can Ganga says, this is right?When a distraught Sa questioned J, he said, "no, I don't love you." This after six months of engagement? He had said "no, I don't love you" to Anandi as well. " I love you" and "I don't love you" have become part of his drill now.Sa may be awful but when a man says "I don't love you" in front a whole big audience, and at that after being engaged to her for six months, any girl will be upset, A broke down and collapsed, Sa plotted revenge.But revenge or not, she did attempt suicide and that cannot not be a concern to her brother and family.I have gone off the original point. But in all this, the person worst affected is A. J would be released sooner or later --even without A's testimony. Simply because Sa is alive. Bu the damage to A will be difficult to repair.@Skep I agree largely with you. People have used and misused A at will but my point of diff is she is, and has been strong despite this.
