Veena Sippy

Diverting the discussion to the main forum from the episode discussion/wu thread so more people can participate 🙈 Excellent points made by @Raingoddess too

Veena Sippy, no matter how good her intentions are, is very overbearing. Had Rohit actually loved Sonakshi and not told Sona yet, veena just confessed for him. Was she right in asking sambhal lo mere Rohit ko? Assuming Sona tou already loves Rohit or is ready to love Rohit. Where is the 'Are you okay with this relationship' question? Or even will you marry him? Or sorry my kid gave your mom an heart attack🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

I completely agree! I love Veena Sippy and I adore her relationship with her DIL and MIL (plus Shalini looks gorgeous in every scene) but she has a tendency to coddle Rohit which caused her to become overbearing and cripples his growth. Naren is always pointing this out. Unfortunately, a lot of desi moms are like this towards their grown sons haha Her intentions are noble but her approach is not the best. She needs to let Rohit make his own decisions and own up to his mistakes. I think a lot of Rohit’s behavior (esp towards loved ones aka Sonakshi stems from the coddling). Rohit needs to realize Sonakshi is not obligated to do anything (she is not his mom nor is she a childhood friend). I would love to see a track where Sonakshi is shown meeting other guys or even having a great costar that she shares a wonderful rapport with. Rohit doesn’t realize how attached he is to Sonakshi and how much he cares for her. He needs to realize that if he wants to keep her in his life, he was to work up to it. With his mom, no matter what she will always be there and support his decisions. Anyway I kinda diverted from the original point but I completely agree with you!

@bold1 - This is so true. Most boys in Indian households grow up as crown princes, nothing they do is wrong 🙄 then they get used to molly coddling and expect the same behaviour from everyone

@bold2- Agreed here too. Sonakshi has been nothing but helpful and patient towards him when he has been rude and ignorant. Visiting her work place and criticizing the show, inviting her to hospital for their function and behaving poorly, although not his mistake - his bua getting suman arrested, filing a case against Sonakshi before hearing her out🙄 and he was trying to apologise for the one he did not do. Sonakshi saved his ass from getting mugged on streets in Pune, became an uncertified therapist and life coach for him and he expects her to dole out more favours for him, asking her to fool both their families so that they get off his back for marriage. How childish. Least he could do was ask properly, woh bhi ni kia🤷🏽‍♀️, he was again condescending towards her work, saying I am just asking you to act, not climb Mt Everest 🤦🏽‍♀️She owes him nothing. Zilch.

I already said once veena as a mother she is too much, yes sometimes mother are biased towards certain child (good naturedlly) , here rohit 's past is additional thing but still she goes overboard

Absolutely! I agree with each and every word! I want to see Rohit realize this as he falls for Sonakshi! He needs to respect and value her! I’m excited for the upcoming tracks but I hope they show the two falling in love without the family being too pushy lol

Couldn't have agreed more.

All his family wants is a bahu (read toy) phir woh kaise bhi aaye/laaye🤢

Another thing which really bothered me was his family failing to give him space. He did agree to what he did was wrong but bande ko kuch time toh do🤔

Had I been in his position I would've lost it there.

The thing is what he is asking her also affects her reputation. As a public figure anyone she dates will become publicized. Also does he expect her to fool her own family as well as his own? I just feel like he is so self centred that he doesn't really think beyond himself.

I think it annoys me that they think a "bahu" will fix him. But what if the bahu doesn't want to fix him. Why would any girl want to get involved with someone who has so much emotional baggage and needs fixing? They should give him time just to sort himself out before rushing into marriage.

There is no recognition that even without emotional baggage people have to get to know each other and like each other to have a happy marriage. Both partners may be good people but that doesn't necessarily mean they are compatible.

You said it!👏

@bold Ekdum correct. That emotional being should connect to his own conscience first before connecting to another person all together.

And clearly Rohit is an emotional wreck even though he doesn't show it. He may even get over love but the guilt still remains. No Sippy is talking/concerned about that? 🤔🧐
