@bold: Yep exactly. The battle is already half won when Imlie has confidently started owning her identity as Imlie Tripathi. Finally all the ZILLION times off late that Adi has been calling her Imlie Tripathi, Mrs Tripathi have sunk in for her too 😆….she’s started owning this name….Babusahib ki mehnat thodi toh safal hui 😆…
She’s only been “Imlie from Pagdandiya” for so long….and now she finally gets to own the last name she got through marriage.
As for AC….lol yes good point about how she’s built her identity around being Dev’s wife. No wonder Didi also doesn’t know how to think beyond all this. Aadmi se cling karo puri zindagi to define yourself by him no matter how toxic the marriage 🤷♀️. Such “modernity”, much wow.
I LOVE IT even more caz she kinda got back to back 2 last names and some force her to take the other one but imlie has totally went NOPE no chance in hell I don't need it ai an fine as Imlie and Now Imlie Tripathi caz that is her own will long Overdue .. if I really need to have a last name that will be the one I will pick..I love how it has her marzi ... yay for babusahib doing his homework well of drilling it in jhalli for so long so she started getting used too and organically slipping into the habit of that being her name.. I love the ease she has when she says it with such pride and tells people ke seek lijiye uska Naam..easy ho jaayega..
