Values R fine , but one must remember , this is business world , where competition is stiff . The Rising Group of industries where Devki worked was equally ruthless . IMV cannot flourish in business with Motilal's way of thinking .

I think one is not talking about the business world when one says that IMV does not value other people's emotions.... he loves to control other's life, then be it Sid's selection of profession or Vaibhav's selction of life partner...he very ruthlessly snuffed out his love life for his own selfish reasons... as he had a hidden agenda in bringing D as his bahu... that too connivingly ... if he had the guts he should have done it openly...rather than trying to show that Sabina was to blame in this whole matter

Dolly i wudn't exactly say that . I will give u my reasons , ok .
.
All the people in his house , with the exception of Siddarth r living life exactly the way they please. And he allows them to .
.
Motilal Master has his own big room and he does Saraswati worship there , lives life on his terrms , goes for romantic walks with his wife ...........I dont see him adjusting AT ALL............rite from eating his gathiyas to romancing Baa
and why shud he adjust just 4 the whims of IMV??did IMV consider oders feelings as sum worth??and watever his father is doing isn't harming him or his image in the outer world. so why shudn't he remain like he pleases??and just 4 this reason how can IMV not allow them 2 live like they wanted!!
Baa is a very strong woman who doesn't hesitate to give her son a tongue lashing when she chooses to speak her mind . She left house when she chose to and came back when she chose to . I dont see her adjusting AT ALL .
and baa is adjusting its only ur perception as ur finding IMVs actions as reasonable.and baa only came back 2 save devki from IMV's malicious intentions!!
Charu does her Guru worship and manages two ashrams using her husbands money . He allows her to do this social work by using his money , he doesnt interfere in her life .I have not seen him throwing her Gurus photo out or the sandals she worships out and refusing to allow her to go to those ashrams. Charu also is a strong woman who doesnt hesitate to speak her mind to him .
yeah charu is doing wid his money & why can't she?? shes his wife & he'd married her 4 money & that money gave him initial sustenance & support 2 establish such a big empire later on!! and if shes doing sumthing gud of his money why shud he object!! and in this way he can uphold his image of benevolent patriarch which is essential 4 his business & share mkt!!
Rajvi shops unlimitedly using credi cards on Viranis account . I dont see IMV scolding her in ANYTHING . Infact he encouraged her to manage an event when he was plotting badnami of BB . He rather likes his bahus doing other stuff besides kitchen kitchen the whole day .
rajvi is doing shopping. why shud he object? wats use of this money if he won't allow her bahus & betis 2 spend it on themselves!! and by this hes able 2 show 2 world his richness!!
Devki has got permission to keep Ganesh idol , he personally doesnt believe in God but he does evaluate the debate before giving final judgement . He wants her to do business and not waste her talent by just doing kitchen work .
he allowed her after baa told him that its the idol which devki's mother worshipped & bcoz he has still sum feelings 4 her mother he didn't say anything.and here hes bit human!!
Siddarth ...........well , perhaps he was kinda forced to join business instead of becoming an artist . But look at it from his POV .........he is a tycoon and he will hand over a legacy to Siddarth and Vaibhav . Surely Siddarth can do business and yet paint as a hobby in spare time ? Or if he uses creatrive ideas to enhance business , im sure IMV wont mind it .
but why not paintinga s his profession & business aa a hobby? vaibhav has interest in business so theres no quesn that he did wrong. and if it was possible thta sid can paint as a hobby then it wud've been shown but i think IMV has objections 2 it also!!thatswhy he hasn't allowed him 2 paint even as a hobby!!
Vaibhav inherited his Dads love for business so no force there . Yes , his affair with Sabina was snuffed out by IMV but frankly , he had his reasons .
imv may've his reasons but they r not acceptable if humanity is taken in consideration. and no parent or human has the right 2 decide oders life & its priorities 4 them!!imagine if IMVs's father'd stopped him doing wat he wanted or baa hadn't allowed him 4 it wud u'd justifie dtheir actions??no i don't think so.
Manhar's family left the house so Sonal shud become a teacher . IMV frankly told her that ok , if u want to be a teacher although I am willing to give u better opprtunities , fine , but go and do it on ur terms .No point in staying in an AC mansion and opting for a simple paying profession .If u want to experience that life .........go , REALLY experience it . Fair enough , right ?
he wanted 2 give better oppurtunities not bcoz he trult wanted but that was 4 2 satisfy his ego & not out of the respect 4 his bro & his ideals or evn sonal's feelings.a nd even wen he asked her 2 join sum big institute then 2 his intentions were 2 make ita business & wen educn is made purely a business like IMV does then wat"ll b the future of nxt generation!!
But he does invite them for all functions and even asked them to come back .Not coming back was THEIR choice .
bcoz he cudn't convince them 2 cum back wid his own business like tycoon talks. if he'd asked them 2 cum back as bro or uncle then they might've cum back. and they never badmouth abt him though that press prsn always wants sumthing -ve 4 IMV!!
Rupal wanted to learn business from him .He welcomed her . However bad he may be , it was Rupal's choice to go back to him .
and wat has she learned from him till date?? nothing. she only sits there, eat, do shopping but i never see her discussing sumthing abt business even like nirali who has atleast interest in horse racing business!!
So u see I dont see people suffering due to him as such . Everyone is pretty much living their own life .
if u think this type of living life is worth then ppl wid money wud've been most happy!!and no1 is truly happy in that family & they r finding happiness among their own small things which IMV has allowed watever his reasons r!!
As far as the Saraswati and Laxmi point goes .............worship of knowledge and Vidya is fine , but poverty is NOT . Since u gave me example of Ramayan and Mahabharat ............I will give u example of Dronacharya in Mahabharat . He was a scholarly Brahmin who cud not give his child Ashwathama even a glass of milk due to his poverty as he was extremely poor inspite of his vidya , knowledge . His wife tricked Ashwathama by mixing white flour with water and telling him it was milk and Ashwathama ran in joy declaring that like his friends he too had tasted milk . That pained Drronacharya who decided that enuf was enuf and he decided to use his knowledge to earn money and give his family a good living .
dear u've given gud e.g & i m also not saying that one shud live in poverty & shudn't try 2 bcum rich but i think knowledge is the way 4 wealth & even u admit that dronacharya cudn't give his son milk but he got wealth only due 2 his vast knowledge which attracted bhishma & not the vice-versa!!
The Dhirubhai Ambani point ................even he has faced enquiry commitee for using unethical means in business .His war with Ramnath Goenka.founder of Indian express is legendary . This doesn't make him evil . Business is a cut throat industry . U gotta be ruthless to win . If one stands there joining hands and doing namastes and telling others u take the contracts , in one day he will become a beggar !
and though in business sum %age of ruthness is allowed & we know its a necessary evil in the corporate world but here we r asking abt his intentions 2 destroy oder's life 2 try 2 challenge him whether sabina oe devki or even his parents.
and luk wat has happend 2 DBA's family now if he did sumthing illegal or immoral 2 win! his own sons just sum yrs after his death got separated & even bad mouthed each oder indirectly!!
Values R fine , but one must remember , this is business world , where competition is stiff . The Rising Group of industries where Devki worked was equally ruthless . IMV cannot flourish in business with Motilal's way of thinking .
no1 is saying he shud work like his father in the corporate world but still there r many ways 2 reach the top. its not necessary that 2 shorten oder line we need 2 cut it we can shorten it by increasing our own line!!
.
.

and by watching this ckt till now i came 2 this conclusion though he'd allowed sum things in his house but they r not out of respect 4 any1else's feeling but just 2 show his power those ppl whom he'd allowed 2 do it & 2 maintain his gud image which is essential in the business 4 share mkts 2 sum extent 2 the world!!
so 4 me hes bad & shrewd & even getting nearer 2 the limit of evil if he goes on like this!!

.
I disagree with the underlined statement . He has strong opinions , yes , and yes he likes being in control . But when a convincing debate is presented to him , he evaluates it by turning it over in his mind and does agree to respecting people's emotions . His acceptance of his father's Maangrol like room , Saraswati pooja , Charu's Guru worship , Devki's Ganpati idol r all after a debate of perspectives .
As far as coming down hard on the choices of both his sons go .......................i am not saying he did the RIGHT thing .................but I am saying he did a COMMON thing . Most Indian parents wud perhaps do the same . If a son wants to become a floundering artist although a considerable legacy awaits him ............most parents wud advise him to take up art as a hobby but to be serious about the legacy that awaits him . And many wud disapporove of Vaibhavs choice too . The attitude wud be ..............Hah , what does he even 'know' of Love ? He is just starting life .
I found IMVs attitude in both these things pretty normal , not evil . As far as not having guts to tell and putting it all on SAbina goes ....................simple , he didnt wanna lose his son !😊
.
But yes ............the clash between him and Devki will be always showing him in a negative way and her in positive way . Its the clash between two attitudes towards life . It will be intteresting and its necessary to the show so show has a storyline . Accepting Sabina wud have not provided much of a story is wat I feel ..
though i agree that his rxn likedisapproving his son's choice doesn't make him evil if his intentions & behaviour was/is like any normal parent but here its clear that his intentions r not like normal parent!! its not 2 do anything wid loosing his son its his attitude of not loosing his inveatments in form of his sons!!and if he'd truly thought of his son's happiness he shud've loose him rather than 2've him but wid no happiness!! i believe in this saying" if u truly luvs sum1 & don't want 2 loose then u shud set them free & if its urs it"ll cum back & if not then never was"!! @bold in blue i agree that devki"ll b shown in +ve light & he in -ve light. and though it makes things interesting as we won't know the worth of gudness widout watching the consequences of bad deeds/evilness'sins!!but overdose is always harmful. but i disagree accepting sabina wud'vn't provided much story. there r many plots 4 showing it & also it can b used side by side alongwid devki in outer world challenging him !!😊

Dolly ........ur questions'why shudn't they' is not what i am talking about . By all means they shud live their live just asthey please , where did i say they shud not ? All I am saying is all r living life exactly the way they want to , I really dont see ANY jabardasti on them whatsoever .
I disagree that all the allowances were given by him to preserve his good image . He has evaluated every debate and permitted after considering it .
He does respect his parents .He does love them . This is a fact .The serial shows it .
IMV 's parents r as strong minded as him . I dont think they r oppressed people at all .
The clash is in the way of thinking . But they r mature enuf to keep that aside and not let it come in the way of personal relationships .
IMV does make an effort to connect with his parents.
Since this is a serial they have shown his ways of breaking Vaibhav up with Sabina dramatically . But many Indian parents wud somehow or the other come down heavily on an alliance they did not deem appropriate for their son . Thats ALL I am saying .
I really did not understand why u kept saying Why shudnt they do it ..........I never said they shud listen to him . Of course they shud lead their life the way they want to ............my only point is had he been really oppressive he wud have tried squashing even that . He doesn't and its not just for good image , no way . His grief in front of Pavla when Baa left the house was genuine . I stand by the fact that he isn't hundred percent bad . Thats NOT what the serial is trying to propogate at all .The serial is trying to show a clash between capitalism and idealism .

.
But even in the serial IMV does not devalue education . He devalues poverty . He educated his sons by sending them abroad didnt he ? He liked Devkis Business School qualifications and he even himself wrote a book on business ethics !
No one is devaluing Saraswati or Education here . No one is even saying its vice versa . Infact everyone agrees that education is important ..........even IMV . What he despises is the glorification of poverty . And I agree with him there . There is nothing glorious about poverty ...........it is extremely painful . Poverty is acceptable only when one voluntarily gives up riches for a spiritual goal . Like the Sadhus do . For common man it can be a worst kind of curse .

though i may think that he luvs & respects his parents 2 sum extent but most of the respect & luv he shows bcoz of his image consciousness as its proved even in 2days epi wen charu herself told that IMV considers it below their level 2 go & watch movie in the cinema hall!!
and abt glorification of poverty even IMV's father isn't saying this. he is only wanting 2 live simply, peacefully & fully which is not allowed by IMV!! and even if u'd noticed i didn't say in my post that poverty is gud but contentment shud b there whether u r poor or rich. the prsn whos happy wid his condition in which he lives is more richer than any1 even ppl like me as i m also not a v.content but generally i know how 2 control my spending acc. 2 money wid me but it doesn't make feel bad 4 long term!!
and its ppl's perception abt the ckt. 4 sum he may b not bad or may b normal like u think but 4 sum like me hes nearing 2 evil. bcoz the prsn who ask sum1 2 kill an innocent prsn that 2 who'dn't even harmed him even unconsciously is equal 2 being an evil!!😊😊 so each 2 his own.
abt business ethics he might've written a book on this topic or mentioned in his book abt business but by watching his ways it doesn't luk like hes himself following them. so 2 me it again seems "Kathni aur karni mein antar"!!😊

@ Koolsadhu:
A very thougthful topic this is. I went through yours and all the other posts on here, and would like to drop my a few cents.
I agree with you on your analysis of the Vaibhav-Sabina relationship. For sure, it is rushed and unreal. Love does not build on so fast, it takes more than a couple of meetings to get to build a friendship at depth.
But on the rest, i would have to disagree. Your identification of IMV as a complex and multi-faceted character is correct, but i feel you use this term to lend a shield to all his less-than-honourable facets.😳
First off, regarding your justifications of IMV imposing a Devaki on his distraught son, are, i have to say, disagreeable. By the law of humanity, no parent figure on this earth reserves the right to force or coerce his adult offspring to take decisions against their will. It was plain, downright, inhuman of him to try to get Sabina out of the way to bring Devaki in, not because his son's madness about Sabina is justified, but because it is immoral and unethical on his (or on any other parents in the world, "Indian" or not) part.
I feel your judgement of Siddharth's character bordering on insensitive. Yes, he is definitely wrong in disregarding his wife and subjecting her to ignore, but there is a reason for it all...he has been psychologically handicapped by his older brother who clipped his creative side for the interests of his Business Empire. He is a lost soul, who never did re-concile to this fact. Whatever you say here, it is inhuman and tyrrannical to take away from someone what they love------------and no excuse can justify THAT. What IMV has done to his brother is unforgiveable.
Ditto goes for Sonal...being born into a business lineage doesnt shoulder you with the automatic responsibility to carry forth the business, nor does it endow you with a knack for business.
And i also find your statement quite disturbing there (If she wants to fulfill her MEDIOCRE ambition)...what was that???😕😕😕
Im not sure what you meant by this...aiming to teach poor students free of cost is a mediocre according to you?? Im no sin-forsaken ascetic to start lectures on the superiority of moral wealth to material 😆, but i do find your statement most uncalled for. Maybe you didnt intend it that way, but it reeks of Extremist materialism. And, in a country like ours where more than a whopping 30% population never get a chance to know school, it is indeed higher than a Noble intention to aim to dispense education to some of them free of cost...doing your micro bit to obliterate the monster of illteracy. Maybe so that many more successful doctors, engineers, teachers or successful businessmen like IMV could be made to rise from amongst that muck of poverty. I dont know how any human person could make that statement, really. Pardon me, but i found it offensive. 😃
Back on topic, your point that IMV cares for his family and does not ever impose his thinking on them, I'll agree with tiny15 here------his aim of image-building is the reason for his "benevolence" if you can call it that. Though i won't say he is 100% lacking in care or concern...nobody could be that, not unless you're Robot.
Overall, a nicely-written and well-presented analysis. Hoping for your reply to my input. Cheers 😊
