Character sketch of Ganpat
Ganpat was babi's second husband and nakku's step father who was nothing but a useless alcoholic who didn't support his family in any way, in fact both his wife and daughter worked so that he could get his daily quota of alcohol. A selfish man who thought only about himself and nobody else, he wished to have loads of money without working for it and didn't mind getting his daughter married to a corrupt policeman. Even when she was being molested by that cop he got angry but did nothing to save her, unbelievable isn't it? Not only that when dutta rescued his family from the clutches of morey and got injured later on he was not at all bothered to take dutta to the hospital ,all he wanted was to run away with his money.
An ungrateful person who could cheat anybody, although dutta knew that he was a greedy man still he gave him work but ganpat preferred to make quick bucks by committing fraud. He was never guilty of cheating his own son in law in fact coaxed his son sethji to give up studies and enjoy the gifts that he bought by adopting wrongful means.
Babi tried to stop him several times but he wouldn't listen to her on the contrary would beat her up, he desired to live a luxurious life by using dutta's name and power without caring how nakku was treated by dutta after they got married. I wonder did he ever consider nakku as his daughter? When everybody was planning to delay nakku's face revelation he was the only when who attempted to foil their plans by telling the truth to dutta forgetting that the same nakku saved him from getting beaten up by dutta, she always gave him that respect and love which a father deserves but he didn't value them.
Although for the first time I am trying to write something positive or thinking of defending the character in some way but nothing is coming to my mind except that once he did something good for dutta, remember that temple scene where Anna's men tried to poison him and his family that time ganpat accompanied nakku with a knife to save dutta, in fact that small knife ended up rescuing the entire patil family, hard to believe but its true also one more scene I cant forget is when he was doing that snake dance along with Baaji during dutta's first wedding.
A funny and good for nothing character but still at the end of the day you don't end up hating him instead feel like singing
" Ae Ganpat chal daaru la ..zara table vable saaf karna yaar."
