Ragini poor thing is really middle class.

What with her struggle and trying to bring up the kids single handed

She does not seem to have much to fall back on. Really middle class.

On the other hand already Neil was a doctor when he married her . She does not seem to be much educated when she married him.

She dated him when she was sixteen and married him at seventeen. Had kids when she was eighteen. Had kids in a row from eighteen to twenty five. ( is eighteen the official age to start having kids or what? )

Fought and divorced Neil when she was twenty five.(sorry I sound like Solomon Grundy poem)

Don't understand. It seems like the middle class girl married rich guy story.

On top of that there is Pam.

I don't really care what Ragini is but for her own sake this inequality in status does not go much in her favor. even in the story.

Ragini never took advantage of her situations in life to move forward or go forward in life.

And now the wedding expenditure and all.

She seems to have saved up for Nishi (ungrateful brat) 's education.

That means she must be having enough money for wedding expenditure.

Then how come she is not able to put to gether enough money for this "one function Daadi wants her to spend for"?

If Jignesh's parents are so nice as to spend for the wedding how come Ragini does not have enough money to even conduct this function?

If she is splitting fifty fifty all the expenditure how come she is expected to spend solely for this "one function so that Daadi would be satisfied."/

I don't get it.

All I know is this inequality is going to play a big part in the story.

I don't care what Ragini is . Money does not matter. But when one partner is more educated and wealthier it puts the other in a disadvantage. really!

isnt ragini a doctor too? and its not like she is not educated. she works in the hospital and neil's dad is also rich so thats why he seems well off than ragini and he is a top surgeon. and on talking about why she doesnt have money its because her kids goes to good universities where the fees will be quite high so she took a loan for it and is still paying and she had many FDs but her biggest FD was taken out because her mom got sick and needed money for it.
More than inequality its their ego and self respect and ragini doesnt seem to care much about money for her self

Ragini is a certified nurse. And then here she is admin head in the hospital.

Does not look like she gets that much of a salary. Even if she does she spends it all on her kids.

She keeps saying she has looked after and brought up the kids all by herself.
