Can someone tell me exactly what the point of Rupali knowing the truth here is? I see no point to the revelation except putting someone other than Aditya who could give token defences to everything they’re about to put imlie through. Seems like they want to amp up the torture so they wanted someone there to speak up for her ek do lafz taake humara sar zyada na phate (since that didi ki bhakt zombie has completely lost the ability to stand up for herself).

The one thing I was the most proud of about this show was its storytelling. The way they subtly and organically wove this story. I see the exact opposite of it now, very little makes sense. Rupi knows such a HUGE truth, koi choti baat nahi hai yeh and she didn’t bother to question aditya once?? These faltu ke side eyes do nothing for me when she accepted the truth as it was and moved on not holding her brother responsible for what he did even once. Not asking him ke kyun kab kaise hua, imlie just told her they got married bas udhar baat khatam? That scene was good but after that they put her in the shadows again until they need her to speak do lafz of token defense. How?? It makes no sense she won’t speak to Aditya. They haven’t even shown what her thoughts on Malini are, seems like she’s ok with both of them being the bhabhi, aise kaise behan? I am so tired of pehla haq pehli patni, yes I know that, but what about want and need and facing the truth of how one relationship was not right for him and in what ways the other is?

She’s neither speaking up for imlie nor for malini to him. How come she didn’t question him for making his wife live like a servant? How come she didn’t apologise to imlie for everything she had to go through, how come she wasn’t furious at aditya for making her go through it? Especially since she herself has gone through something similar. How is she not asking aditya he married a second time khud hi na, toh ab kya problem huyi ? Yeh roz ka normal hai kya do do shadiyan karna? why is aditya not being questioned by her? maybe because no matter how different she is from tripathis banne same hi material se hai, baat nahi karni bas apni karni hai jitna bhi senseless ho, honestly I am just trying to understand the logic in her not approaching aditya. Idk what they’re waiting for sab kuch toh uske saamne hai. Oh, maybe because it will give more ss to aditya and his and imlie’s story and how can we have that in a show that is about them? (let me be salty please my brain is nearly fried rn).

Storytelling gayi tel lene, hawa hogayi.

Time wise if you think about it- Rupali found out Adilie’s secret the day before Imlie’s award function and Malini suicide attempt. After that everyone is in the hospital- not the right time for all these other questions. Now things have settled down - perhaps we will have Rupali in full form. I forgot which part it was in the last episode but something made me think she WAS mad at Aditya and full support for Imlie.

Camera crew is limited for sure- that’s why we are getting These long boring segments. Was rewatching the older episodes and you have so many angles of same shot - so many changes of scene and shifting between scenes that it was never boring .

Also dialogues - don’t know - is there limited time for dubbing too? Imlie Aditya etc used to think soo much - now we have them moving around like broken records...

Entire storyline is not making sense for this new twist.

How is marriage at gun point legal ?

someone you are with for 7 years is all of the sudden not your love after marriage.
girl half of your age who is forcefully married to you is love of your life. ?. is it love or sympathy / guilt from mistreatment of her.
how does family takes in a strange young girl and accepts her with open arms in to the family ? To a point that if her presence causes rift between son and daughter-in-law will still side with outsider.
rupali knows the truth and will not only confront involved person but won’t tell anyone in the family even in the middle of life and death situation.. tripathi’s have lost their marbles all together except finally nishant made a valid point of sending imli to hostel.

I loved the show at the start but it has turned into a stubborn fight over sindoor ki dibbia.

Only just and common sense clad character is annu ( Malini mom ) her reasonings are not evil but are of a normal person. May be little aggressive but for right reasons.

It may strange to you and yet - in an interview with the Bengali writer Leena Gangopadhyay- she said the original story was based on the real story of a woman she knew. There are marriages held in precisely the same way - at gunpoint happening India. That’s what got me interested in the plot. There was a movie made on it as well. It’s not the legality- once it does happen , it’s the emotional situation of the 2 people involved and (in this case to build the story up - it’s a triangle- 3 people involved) that is so interesting . There are several families in India who have been through this- which is sad and in a way this story brings the emotional trauma of those alliances to the forefront.

And if you could please go through the answers members have so painstakingly discussed before, you would see multiple points of view why this story makes sense.

In short the makers have made every attempt to show Adi was never in love with Malini- he was settling for what he thought was love or affection. Imlie enters his life forcefully and completely turns it upside down - as he said in one episode he realizes that he loves her - after she finally leaves and that the ideal partner for him was the one who challenged him at every point- who was so different from him .

Regarding ages- in the show - don’t know if it matters- but Imlie is not half Adi’s age. Imlie is 18. Malini and Adi have known each other for 7 years in college and after - this is ll we know- but am assuming they ar e 27-28.

As for how can family accept a strange girl- how many families in India have household help brought in by people they know. This is a girl Adi brought so they know he knows her family and as for how they come to love her as their own- that’s an effort on the makers side to show how adorable and innocent a character she is and once they understand how much she wants to study they do everything to help her in her goals. The Tripathis have said in the beginning episodes they don’t really need help as all the women together do the housework. They only needed some help during the wedding. And also as they have said so many times - that for them people who live with them are family. Perhaps this part would be a little bit more easy to understand if more people treated household help a bit more decently.

As to how ‘Tripathis are siding with an ‘outsider’....Tripathis don’t know yet that Imlie is the reason for the discord between Aditya and Malini. All they saw is Malini going off her rocker over Imlie putting sindoor. And they know things have been bad between Malini and Adi for a long time- their first fight which was the car- bike issue which Imlie had no part in, their differences in status and then they know things got bad when Adi left for 4 days without telling anyone where he was going. Remember neither they nor Malini know even at this point that he was in Pagdandiya. Even Malini only suspects and she told what she suspected to Dev and her Daadi. She has not yet gotten a confirmation from Adi or Imlie.

So according to Tripathis at this point-WHY as Pankaj- Badke Kaka - says would Imlie’s staying at home or not affect relationship between Adi and Malini?

Aparna has zoomed in on the sindoor issue and has felt Imlie’s presence is disturbing Malini but even she doesn’t know anything yet - and yes because of even that minor thing- suddenly she is treating Imlie as an outsider and thinking she should leave.

Hope this brings some clarity...

Cutting in between to show interaction between Adilie or Rupali - Adiilie perhaps would seem insensitive.

Yes I do get that, but it is seeming rather like tokenism as of now. There was a window for rupali to talk it out with aditya between when she found out and what malini did. But she seemed to be shown, giving imlie clothes all chirpy, I don’t have a problem with that I loved it but still can’t they have shown her a little disturbed with aditya? This huge truth? It was ek second mein accept ke imlie is bhabhi and somehow malini is too, adi bhai ne ghalti ki but it’s ok I choose to support imlie baat khatam. Idk the execution makes even as important a character as rupali seem like a token defense ke liye rakhi huyi character, I’d rather have watched her thought process regarding the whole thing, reeling from the shock, her thought process regarding hiding the truth like imlie asked and her own reasons for it, if not questioning adi than thinking about why he did what he did. But instead what we were delivered with was every character becoming a token for malini’s sake

I think it was just that rupi would be the person who will support Imlie in that household ......after all this mess Malini created 🙄🙄
