Yes, she's not black but she sure has forgotten her path.
Gunjan here is behaving like a child who's so fascinated by fire that it wants to hold it in his hands. When his mother refuses, he cries yet tries to move towards it... when sternly held back the child simply becomes more stubborn and is more determined to hold the enchanting flame... as a last resort his parents tie his hands and try to pull him further in but the adamant child retaliates and looks for an opportunity to sneak towards the beckoning warmth... and on the first given opportunity when he holds it... the warmth leaves, and the flames scalds him... hurting him deeply and leaving behind scars for a lifetime.But thn respecting your opinion, I would agree to disagree here that what Veera is doing is wrong. Desperate times do call for desperate measures. Veera is simply trying to give Gunjan the taste of her own medicine. Ranvi's philosophy is not going to work with Gunjan and its only apparent... Right on the first day of marriage she was manipulating him and later was plotting to run away. She has already managed to trap Ranvi by mortgaging her jewelery. All this while Veera was not rude to her.Veera lost her cool when she found out about Gunjan planning to flee. If Veera wanted her revenge she would have exposed Gunjan then and there by letting everyone know about her discreet plans but she withheld that info not even letting Ranvi privy of information that would hurt him immensely. If Veera wanted to break Ranvi's marriage that would have been her best tool but instead she hid it... for it is one information that would have marred the last figment of trust Ranvi has ever placed on Gunjan and would break him.She was right when she said that her house is no hotel for Gunjan's temporary accommodation. Her conditions sounded bonded-labour arrangement but if one would see Veera simply have arm-twisted Gunjan to make her accept her role as the daughter-in-law of the house that will lead to Gunjan becoming a part of the family eventually, that is, if and when Gunjan will come to accept them as her family. In her own way Veera is trying to open Gunjan's eyes to her present and bring her back from the dream world that will only take Gunjan further down.Ratan and Chaiji have accepted Gunjan putting the past behind them but how much do they know to begin with? And if they knew which mother will readily accept or trust a gal who was ready to make a compromise on her dignity? Or which mother-in-law will shower love and care on a daughter-in-law who wanted to "escape" at the first given opportunity or as a matter of fact thinks her son is unworthy of her?Though I agree that Veera's tactics are childish and in all honesty not going to work on Gunjan who's simply refusing to open her eyes to the light of the day and in darkness a fall is imminent. Perhaps thats what Gunjan needs right now. The lesson Veera is trying to teach Gunjan is being looked at by Gunjan as torture but lessons of life are much tougher than these.In my POV Veera is on the last desperate resort to pull Gunjan back and save her from the fire that is drawing Gunjan towards itself. If she doesn't stop now, the fire is going to consume her as we know completely oblivious to the perils of the world beyond Gunjan is inching towards disaster.
I agree and disagree to some of your points.
But dont you think that earing scene was unecesarry.
and Veera now is doing it for her utter ammusement .The way she made Gunjan make so many parathas and had her do housework.
To be honest just by doing housework one doesnt feel part of the family your heart needs to give in for that to happen and right now Gunjan heart and mind is on her goal.
If that was the case maybe Veera should do some housework maybe Ratan will accept her sooner too.
