Mannu Ratan scene was very well done.Too bad the man couldn't even call him as his son even in his last moments.
He gave up the rights over his son because he wanted his son to grow up to be a good man not because he didn't want to receive slap from his son.
Considering the background where he is from where they kill just to have a son where fathering a son is considered to be the ultimate achievement he gave up his claims on his son allowed him to have another man's name that is a great thing on his part. He went against the beliefs of his own community to ensure that his son had a good life and grows up to be a decent man.
For all that we know had he grown up with him Mannu no doubt would have been loved and pampered because he was male child but would have been like what Kundan is right now.
He could have very well behaved like Akheraj and kept his son with him.
What Ratan did to Ganga can never be washed off there is no denying in that.Ganga did punish him for what he did to her she made he paid for his crimes and atrocities against her.
But what he did as a father to Mannu cannot be ignored.
Ganga's ex husband deserved to be punished but did Mannu's father deserve to be deprived of the pleasure of seeing his son?
Ratan was Mannu's father and agreed it is no great achievement and Jagya earned right to be Mannu's father with his love dedication towards Mannu. Even if didn't adopt him also he would have continued to care for Mannu as his own.Was it really essential to remove Ratan's name and put Jagya's name?
Mannu was justifiably upset with his mother?parents for not revealing this to him before.What did Ganga think she was doing by telling him that Ratan is his father by this way?
She fulfilled Ratan's last wish without revealing this to Mannu then what is the point in telling Mannu after his death?
If she wanted Mannu to perform Ratan's last rites as his son she could have very well told him about Ratan when he was admitted under her care when she became very sure that he is no threat to her relationship with her son since he is in terminal stage.
Don't blame Mannu for getting angry with his mother/parents over this issue.
