Hello guys...seems to be my days these days....usually I don't make topics unless I have something to say....
checked few pages no topic..hence my post...coming to topic...

Bauji...father....I don't think I need to look for definition but he forced me to.....

I thought father is the person who is teaches you right and wrong

He is the one that holds your hand in the hardest of times and helps you walk through

He knows your happiness and sorrow , he notices the small things about you and knows the reason behind it....

He knows when to pull you back and when to let you fly...

He respects your opinions and also trust your judgment...

He would never pick one sibling over the other even the worst of times ...even when you commit blunder in his view...

He is not arrogant towards his child...he is proud of his child

Lets meet Bauji...for the first time...I don't want to call him that...because he is not....was may be...he failed miserably........he walked in and he didn't notice Nupur's pain and had enough words to declare he has only one daughter.....

To his shame his daughter had to remind him that she was the mother and still is and she drew the line.....

He actually was talking about money not his child's welfare.....not once he asked Nupur how she is doing ??? one question .....

He conveniently took Nupur's shoulder to cry on and he himself disowned her....what a shame....

He accepted Nupur because Gunjan was shot...if not he would continue the drama....what prestige was he worried about....people would talk more about him disowning her than Nupur marrying Mayank....Seriously ...he didn't know Nupur loves Mayank....which part was he kept in dark....

This is really funny...he saw the pain and anguish in Samrat...but totally failed to see what Mayank had done.....he saw the responsible samrat...but failed to see mature , responsible mayank...

He repeatedly insulted a guy not only married his daughter but also a great freind of Gunjan....Didn't Gunjan tell that to him....he actually said he can accept the pain of Gunjan being shot ,,but not what Nupur had done...OH PUHLEEZE ....That was vengence....I thought fathers are supposed to forgive ...may be not this one...

He stood there in the hospital and didn't have an iota of anguish...i see Samrat , Nupur even all the friends in Pain...This guy just stands there like he was watching a movie.....This is his daughter for petes sake....and goes back and tells nupur about hurricane and stupid Chatt....really...all your life's wisdom has boiled down to this....

He redefined the term FATHER....I don't know what to call him...the relationship...but he is not a FATHER......unless we redefine
the term..

PS: This is not a post to BASH Bauji and his accepting Samrat...Neither am I questioning should he or shouldn't he....I am trying to understand this so called Fathers POV...and his double standards...please don't tell me it is because of the Ladder incident he misunderstood Mayank......

Everything he did so far was despicable in the name of father...I am nor saying it should be Bauji instead of Samrat....

I am questioning whether is can be called a father....from any POV..I fail to see his how actions can be justified...


Do share your views...keep the bashing out...I do love to hear your POVs...

Agrees with u AJ, quite vehemently..!!

I m sorry to say I dont understand this Bauji AT ALL...!!

He makes me sick at his choosing so called dignity over the love of his daughter. I really wanna know (assuming there are people like this in real life) what exactly are they gonna do with all the dignity..? People will anyway he disowned his daughter is that far more acceptable that the happiness of his daughter?

I dont understand why he got them married if he dint want them to marry in the first place, if the reason is his self respect, then I m sure he would have found another RICH guy for Nupur to marry who would be able to pay her college fees.

I cant accept a dad who actually mouths such a dialogue - "woh tumhare college ke fees kaise barege? "
Oh I forgot..the purpose of marriage was to pay the college fees for his daughter. SO Mayank is not a suitable guy for his daughter BECAUSE he is NOT RICH in conclusion cant pay her college fees.
Sure bauji!!!

Nupur fell at her Bauji's feet and cried her eyes out...Even a stone would melt at her tears, not her own father..Nada!!! No way!!!
u cancry as much as u want ...I refuse to believe my own daughter is the simple logic he follows!!

Now when Gunjan was shot, I thought I might see a redemption in Bauji...Nope...nothing....he loves Gunjan alright (thank god for that..he doesnt say...usko goli lagi hai tho woh meri beti nahi hai)
but even at such a stage.he has a mind that criticises and rejects Nupur.
Wow, this man is strong!!

Mayank, his daughter's husband is nothing more than the dust on his feet right now, all his genuine efforts to make bauji comfortable is looked at like ..well not looked at all...
HE did notice Sam in a good way, knowing this guy I suspect, its not just sam's reactions, it could be the fact that he can afford his daughter's fees and the hospital bills probably that is the reason why he likes sam (I certainly hope NOT!!!)..I mean thats his track record.

So, any takers for him disowning Nupur again once Gunjan gets well?

I surely hope he does, I'd rather him not accept Nupur than give acceptance for hypocritical reasons!!

I once said in one of my earlier posts during the marriage track that I'd get my dad to talk some sense into this bauji...the offer still holds good 😉 😆

AJ,i cudnt agree more...............
The Father we saw in the earlier part of the show, who sent his daughters to Mumbai to fulfill their dreams and the one we see now is way diff.
He was called by Bui and he came instantly...........agreed with whathe saw between MN he was supposed to be upset and angry..............but that diesnt mean u force ur daughter to marry some random guy, she hardly knws...........within 3 days..........and the reason given was that the guy she loves,...............no matter how nice he is.......cant pay her fees...............so does it all boil down to money................
Which father will only marry off his daughter to aguy coz he has loads of money..................?
Again, he failed to notice Mayank's pain..............as a father he misunderstood Nupur................and disown her after getting her married...............what logic was behind that..........god only knows.............
He kept on harping on how Nupur let him down and he has only one daughter...............and when that only daughter is shot..............he walks in and instead of being concerned ........he find time to ridicule his disowned daughter and her husband..............
He accepted Nupur, coz he himself needed a shoulder to cry.............to lean on...............
But then again, a father when his daughter was dying, was busy seeing how much her bf is concerned for her................wonderful...........
He not has ridiculous logic, but cant even see the gold infront of his eyes..............thats y he cant see what a wonderful and perfect guy Mayank is..........
I agree, whatever he is, not a father for sure..............

AJ are you talking about THE bauji? who sent his daughters from Moreyna to Mumbai and never bothered to call up his daughters once? Hadnt it been for Bui in Moreyna period he wouldn't even know that there is something to concern him about his daughters...

He has never come across as a respomsible man to me.. he doesnt even know about the thoughts and emotions of his own daughters.....He forced one of them to get marriaed to some one she doesnt like....And when that fanily dsowned her he allowed the B.F to marry her and instantly disowned her......His daughters who are probably highly confused as to what he thinks and wants had each others company, love and support....but even here he comes in and starts behaving in a partial manner to createa rift between them....

For one daughter he can do anything..For another he turns a blind eye..His treatment to mayank is exemplory....But I wouldnt say its unrealistic..Mayank doesnt hail from a rich family....has a single mother and irrespective o fhis grades is still unemployed..So probably he thought that he might have to monetarily help them so he distanced himslef from them....Wow....

I feel really unhappy for the two sisters that they have such a father....if the Cvs care they can actually justify/ explain all the drawbacks in Nupur's and Gunajn's character by showing their interaction with the Great Bauji...Or his lack of it....A bad childhood...motherless children with an insensitive father can wreck havoc in any girl's personality...

Bauji is so not a good father....

Hey AJ, I do have to agree with you!! Bauji's behavior has not been giving me good vibes!!

The thought has crossed my mind - that not once has he asked Nupur how she's doing after marriage - is everything Ok - though she apologised once again in the last epi (or the one before the last - don't remember)!! And one can't ignore Mayank in the hospital - his quiet support of his wife in the time of her need - and his support and direction to all his friends - looking out for Samrat and Gunjan - and I think to myself - how can one not want a son-in-law like Mayank!!

The way he said the boy who's been most helpful - Samrat!! But for Nupur it is Mayank - not Samrat!! I expected the scene - as it was there in the precap - but still it gave me a little shock - How can a father say that to his daughter?? They show bauji leaning on Nupur for support and to be honest he's offering her his - he's basically doing what Nupur told him is important - they need to stand together in this time of need - but even at this v.sad time - he's not prepared to accept Mayank - who has been in hospital for more hours than him - supporting both his daughters!! I find that unacceptabel!! Even the most hard hearted men melt in such situations!! Doesn't his rational mind tell him that there have to be some redeeming qualities in the boy - if everyone else is looking up to him - including Adhiraj who was going to marry Nupur!!

Ah well - I'm sure they'll make up - but at least in this track in the hospital - bauji's behavior was not in good taste and not suiting an elder of the family!! If the elders cannot forgive - then what should we expect from the youngsters!!

I guess when there is a bad impression on someone, it lasts!! I guess there is a difference of seeing love in front him and not behind his back!! He didn't get to know Mayank like he did with Samrat!! It's all because of a misunderstanding!! Hopefully Adhiraj can clear it!! Or Mayank wins his heart!! 😊 But I agree he should forgive everything by now!! Especially at a time like this!! 😔 But I think he will soon, I think!! 😊 The money thing, I guess some people are like that!! 🤔 But does he know Samrat has money??!! 😆

WEll what do i say about Bauji............i cant imagine he is the same one who sent his daughters to mumbai ......... the first scene he is shown in the railway station with his daughters.......the way he behaves with them was so different....... that is a father daughter relation ship not this........

Currently.,,,,,,,, i am not sure who this man is ( i refuse to call him bauji)........

He cant see the pain in Nupurs eyes....when she comes to him to console him when Gunjan is shot.........

He cant see the way Mayank is handling the situation and instead goes on to say that mere betiyon ko jis sahare ki zarrorat hai vo main hun......... aur koi nahi......... yeah right.......😕

During the marriage time he had a different shade all together.......... that time he was the one who thought whatever Nupur did was wrong......... he couldnt see her crying...... he could see her in pain....... nothing...........

I do want to mention though.......... only time i felt for bauji yday was when he was crying for Gunjan... and Nupur was consoling him........ the one where he broke down.

I agree shreya that bad impressions can be long lasting, but not when he is ur son-in-law. IF he cant see Mayank for what he is, he is quite a bad judge of character.

As for Samrat, I hope he likes him for his good qualities rather than for the fact that he is rolling in money

Most importantly is this really the time to hold grudges..sigh...

The rest I completely agree Divz...I am questioning why is he unable to extend the same understanding to Nupur ....why would a father choose...he shouldn't be...
