Thanks for the post - I think this must be a record for a sweet, understanding and loving character to be turned into an annoying to the point of dangerous (for her, her baby and Arnav) addiction...Feel bad for poor Arnav & nani who keep thinking she is getting better and slowly coming out of it - what a rude shock awaits them!
Anjali's character has really gone down very badly with most of us - and it certainly does not help that we came to know that Daljeet negotiated her role with the production people...this is one case where quantity has over-ruled quality - fewer Anjali scenes, or at least if they showed her in more sympathetic light, would have got her audience support - right now Anjali is coming across as annoying and definitely feel no understanding for her at all.
Whatever the negotiation Daljeet had, what comes across is the total character assassination of Anjali. Don't know how much of it is Cvs work and how much was because of Daljeet pressurising...
