I like selfish Mangala. Let her be like that.

For Selfish Mangala unknown baby girl became her self. Kamli, Gopal, Pushkar, teacherji etc. were close to her self. Now she's feeling bad and crying for not considering people around as her own self. Poor lady she doesn't know this will make her more selfish.



blue - I liked this. 🤣 ..Thanks for pointing this out.
Mangala is so selfish. How can she even think that she can do good to the whole society? Who gave her the right to be a social worker?

Cant we all see that she is doing this for her own selfish reasons ? 😉

So true.

I was shocked too read posts those stated how Mangla was a villain trapping Nandini in child marriage to catter her own selfish motherly instincts when She should be applauded for thinking of a way to save child's live by even putting her life one more time in danger for the sake of someone else totally unrelated to her.
That made me jump into her defence.

Even y/day her self examination improved her image in my perception since how many ppl can examine their own conduct so objectively? How many of them berate themselves for not exerting more for the sake of society beyond their personal gain specially when the same society did nothing for them?


I am not shocked. I felt it was a good entertainment reading the hilarious posts to put down mangala.🤣

If CVs read this thread, they will die laughing.🤣

A very good point. A thought that I get everytime I read here that Anandi is selfless...and that's why she lost her child while fighting ...blah blah... It is Okay if one is selfless. She could go and jump in a well too to save others. Not a soul would bother or worry about her. What is irritating is , in this case, she put someone else life in danger here, not her's!

Ppl are saying that Mangla is treating Nandini as her possession but the truth is Anandi has treated as her possession.
She is selfless so sacrificed her possession for the welfare of some one else. But unfortunately that possession was a living being , having same rights to be considered which that other girl was having .

But since this possession belonged to Anandi as her daughter , she sacrificed her for her wish to put others before her. She forgets to consider that this daughter was not a lifeless possession which she could sacrificed as she wished but a helpless girl who had more rights on her mother for keeping her safe than any other child.

I could not understand why she should be applauded for this so called selfless act and others needs to follow her to become a good Samaritan?

Nice posts to explain why people are "defending" Mangala. I also wrote in my various posts - the best quality that I see in Mangala (and unfortunately, the leads of serials seldom have this) is her ability to introspect, her acceptance of her own weaknesses and not forcing her decisions on others (like Kamli) and not using emotional blackmail on those who will listen to her, and giving due credit to others where due (like she gave credit to Kamli for her courage). Being good at heart, helping others etc. can be seen in other characters also.

Do any body wonder why Kamli did not report to investigate her in laws accident specially when she was told by her father in law about his brother's intention. Kamli was not a poor, helpless person anymore. She had money, there were too many people in her in law's village to help her if she had mentioned her suspicion on her father in law's funeral. Instead she did nothing and came back to her evil father's house and put her and her husband's life at risk.

So M does have those weaknesses as told by M herself.

That has been told by us from the beginning. She saved Nimboli, loves her a lot but she does have those traits of being too possessive and blinded by love for Nimboli , the love which made the life of both Nimboli and herself a hell.

Just becoz she cant come out of that , her insecurities prevented her to embrace a better life for herself and Nimboli.

Today writer's answered the question what N asked M , have you beaten Kundan for what he did to Urmi? And M didnt have an answer for that.


We all know her background , But this is a character so telling about those traits are no sin. That is her character.

Anandi has her own faults which were criticized/bashed the most.

So why there is any comparison between Anandi and Mangala.

Both are different. Both are good at heart but from the childhood A thinks for others too which is lacking in M

And today also Kamli convinced her that she should not fear this and talk to Visa.

Good that she understood her weaknesses

Those are not weaknesses, but that is where introspection comes in.

First, M was not equipped in any way to do anything better for herself or Nimboli than what she was already doing. And neither there was any helping hand to allow herself to embrace a better life.

She lived for survival until a long time using her devi mask when needed. Saw Nimboli and saved her, like any good human would do. Nimboli also became a reason to add some value in Mangala's lifeless life. She cared for Nimboli in her own limited ways and came to love this girl very much.

Then she met Anandi, who scared her about taking away child brides, so M started living with a fear that if people come to know about N, they will snatch her. So she kept quiet. (And in this, no one told her, how BVs are rescued and what kind of good life will they get. Anandi, the social worker, did a very poor job despite her experience)

However, after a couple of further incidents, she has realised that keeping quiet out of the fear of losing Nimboli is also no good, so she introspected herself, has listened to Kamli and will also take right steps.

Of course those are her weaknesses.

Now she has to do the introspection . Becoz she dont have any option left. She was scared after winning election Akheraj will kill N first.

And I didnt know A came and scared her, that I will come and take away your child.

This is too much.

And how do you know that she never got any opportunity before?

Anandi, the social worker didnt do any poor work, She told they rescue child brides and rehabilitate them. She gave her card, and told if she come across any such incident she should contact her. By that time DS called up.

She knows very well that Anandi is a good lady and that is what Kamli said.

She understood very well what A does and that is the reason she is scared that if N goes away from this hell how will she live.

No, I don't know if she got any opportunity before because I can only draw conclusions from what is shown and join reasonable dots from it.

I cannot say that she never got any opportunity and at the same time I cannot blame her on the fact that she must have got some other opportunity before and she would have deliberately lost it.

-------

Secondly, introspection is a great virtue. It's a great way to grow / succeed.

At least she doesn't keep things to herself and take random decisions. She was in a dilemma, so she shared her mind with Kamli and accepted her advise too.

This was an applaudable step.

-----

I didn't want to bring in any comparison but couldn't help it. Mangala instrospects and she grows. Anandi doesn't and hence loses.
