Hope you don't me posting.
I agree Kamla is not a very convincing Mother towards Kalpi. Today's episode was very confusing. I thought she would try to hold on to both girls, but not only did she choose Paakhi she carried her to safety and never remembered Kalpi. It was Paakhi would remembered Kalpi first.
I understand her turmoil, because it is hard to take out someone's kid and not be able to explain why they drowned, it would be very very terrible to tell another Mother that. However, I just can't wrap my mind around the fact that she forgot about Kalpi, it was shocking, even though Kamla's behaviour up to this point has been seriously questionable.
I think Kamla has made her choice...it is Paakhi.
If Kalpi ends up hating her Mom, I would feel sad, but I will not judge her for it. There must be some limit to what a child must bare from their parents. Kamla has gone too far now, and even Vitthal is looking completed disgusted and very sad...I feel sorry for him, because he loves his wife and does not want to go against her, but at the same time Kalpi is suffering. He has even warned Kamla on several occasions about her relationship with Paakhi but she has totally ignored him.
Kamla is not understanding that Kalpi is not an adult, she is a child she will not in any form or shape be able to understand her Mother's intentions and why she is even leaving home.
I was completely upset when Paakhi pushed herself in the bus seat beside Kamla, so Kalpi could not sit there. Kamla could have nicely told Paakhi to sit in another seat, so she could spend some time with Kalpi who is leaving.
For crying out loud, she only breast fed Paakhi, she did not carry her in her womb for 9 months, what is this need for declaring this Motherhood?
So, she feeds a life, and want payment as Mother?
Neetu is not a nice lady, but I understand how she feels.
She made Kamla feed her baby expecting that is all it would be. It was not necessary for Kamla to develop this extreme attachment to someone else's child. Her extreme efforts, have made Paakhi feel closer to her. she should have kept within her limits.
Lots of women feed other women's babies with their milk. What is the point of developing this extreme attachment and this God given right over the baby. So, that means any woman who can't breastfeed, must let their baby die, for fear that the women who feeds the baby will assume the position of Mother?
Never once did I hear Kamla really try to make Paakhi bond with her Mother. She should have tried to bring them together, that would be Mahaan, not to declare her as her own daughter. She already has a daughter of her own. Paakhi no longer needs to be breastfed.
Just my two cents.
