I feel like both Paakhi & Kalpi have suffered quite a bit & I don't think either Kalp or Paakhi have gotten everything they want.
For me, it's not necessarily that one girl get's everything she wants while the other girl doesn't. I guess, it depends on the topic for me.
Betrayal,
Both Paakhi & Kalpi have suffered betrayal. Kalpi has gone through it w/her mom & the Kapoors & the Paakhi has gone through it w/her own family- other Kapoors.
Loving Family,
Paakh's family does love her but yet I feel Kapoor Niwas lacks heart. They buy her nice things but when it came to people Paakhi cares about they didn't listen to her. She never wanted the Jadhav's to be harmed but her family were so close to demolishing their chawl & she saw Vitthal lying in front of her house bleeding due to getting beaten up by the guards, & she felt betrayed when her family stole her presentation. So the Kapoors do buy her nice things & can throw quite a party for her but they she has witnessed a lack of love & care in their eyes when it comes to certain things she really cares about. W/Kalpi on the other hand in terms of family, she overall views her family as a caring, loving family but she has suffered w/a lack of attention & love w/her mom. Anyways, I feel more love w/Jadhav family scenes.
Men,
Kalpi has got plenty of love & attention from her dad, bro, & Raghav & even Prem might give her attention in the future as well. Plus, both her dad & bro seem to have quite a bit of time for her. Both Sahil & Prem love Paakhi but they overall seem quite emersed in their business matters, especially Prem & I feel Paakhi has gotten used to them being like this & she doesn't make a big deal out of being more closer to them & she maybe would make a bigger deal about it if her & Kamla had less close of a relationship.
Taunts, I'll treatment
Kalpi has gone though quite a bt of taunts in her life. She went through Raghav's insults & the police officer's taunts for example & on top of all this she worked as maid for sometime in Kapoor Niwas. She also suffered w/the exam issue a few times because of the Kapoors. It's like her life has been a struggle from the time she was quite young. Paakhi has not gone through much of this in her life so far.
Family closeness,
Kalpi experienced more amount of neglect w/her mom & then she was sent off to boarding school & although she is back from boarding school & her bond w/her dad & bro is overall a positive one since she trusts her dad & bro & has an overall good relationship w/them, still, there is an uneasiness in her relationship w/her mom & how Kamla is with her as well. Even though Paakhi, never lived away from her family there was distance within Kapoor Niwas within the family. Her mom neglected her for years & she never seemed to have as close of a relationship w/her bro as Kalpi w/Pakya & now both her dad & bro are quite emersed in their business.
Now I blame a lot of the reason as to why both the girls are the way they are on Kamla. Even if a baby can end up behaving more cold towards it's own mother if the mother keeps on leaving her her. If the mother keeps on doing this the baby eventually will be hesitant when the mother comes back from wherever she is comin' back from & the baby will be grasping to it's caretaker. Even if the mom decides that she will stop being neglectful f the child & she stays back, already some damage has been done due to the mom's neglectful behavior & the nany getting idea to the caretaker. So the baby will be crying for the caretaker while it's with it's mom. Now what we have seen on EMA is even worse than the situation I described. Neetu neglected Paakhi for years, not just wile she was a baby/tot. Along w/this, Kamla took care of her & to top all this off she breastfed her but circumstances are different now since Paakhi is now an adult & Neetu is now giving importance to being a part of her life but Paakhi giving her a chance now well this is easier said than done of course. Anyways, even if Lamla first intended on giving equal, love attention, & care with both the girls from the time they were very young, this didn't end up happening.
I was born while my mom was in college. She didn't have much time for me so she would leave me w/my grandma at times. Later on, in my life, especially while I was a teenager, a lot the time when I need consolement, my mom wouldn't console me but my grandma would. I am in my late twenties now & I am closer to my grandma than I am to my mom. Yes, our relationship is definitely not as bad as Paakhi & Neetu's relationship but still there are certain things that are at least kinda lacking & like Paakhi there are times when I feel at least kinda suffocated in my house & I stay in my grandma (same grandma) & grandpa's house even though there house is much smaller & more simple than my house. Yes, I don't approve of Paakhi's behavior w/her mom a good chunk of the time but I understand how Paakhi feels sometimes. In fact, I can relate to her more than Kalpi yet there are quite a bit of differences between Paakhi & I at the same time. Whatever both the girls are goin' though w/their moms. I don't to see major improvements in their relationships w/them happening too soon. I am sayin' all this from experience. I wasn't raised with much affection & went through some physical & mental abuse so I guess at times I find these both these girls quite lucky. When I was around the same age as both of these girls I was kinda a mess. I feel at age 20-21, a good chunk of the time one is not so put together & polished at this age & it's still quite close to late teen years but at the same time one is considered an adult & I am seeing quite accurate behavior on this show w/the girls considering their age. I don't really want to get into any more comparing.
So to both Kalpi & Paakhi, I really applaud both of these girls & I also applaud both Rachana & Shrini 👏. Two beautiful young women who are doing a superb job with portraying Kalpi & Paakhi.
Sorry about the long post fellow forum members 😆.
