Oh it is a dictatorship totally...and BP is the dictator...its clearly seen that he is no HOF just a control freak for all his sanskar and shudd hindi. If PH wanted to whitewash Anu, they could totally create a sequence where they show in FB how BP further blackmailed and/or ordered Anu to get married to Akriti which is why he went through with the marriage even after teh temple fiasco. (I'm not excusing Anu, just speculating how they could explain/excuse his behavior in the future with the tiniest logic if they wanted to)
I don't know about Bengali but the Marathi version of BP is best...he's deciding and controlling when needed but hes also very jovial and modern at times and his family truly respect him not out of formality or fear of blackmail.
