Absolutely agree!
When the show started I thought (based on the articles before the show premiered) that this was a story of a housewife - who is the lifeline of a household but everyone has taken her for granted for so long that she's lost her own identity - she's just ma, bhabhi, bahu etc. She does so much for her family because she cares for them and wants too but she hardly gets anything back and all she needs is some love and recognition.
Not to draw comparisions but that situation reminds me of Sridevi in english vinglish - even she was taken for granted and wasn't terribly fluent in english and had some self confidence issues.
I thought this would be a story of a woman so engrossed in her daily chores, responsibilities and all that she's forgotten who she is and what SHE likes. I was expecting this to be a story of how she realizes that she's being taken for granted and breaks out of that and discovers her self worth - not saying she needs everyone to be at her beck and call but get the love adn respect she deserves.
Sunidhi's character could have been grey - a contrast to Pratibha but she certainly didn't need to be THIS evil. Thats just annoying and almost unrealistic - what devrani has this much time to scheme and plot against her jethani when she has a full time job!
