All the nautanki of parvarish & guilt trapping dhara bhabhi tried with devars was mainly to stop them so her promise to her prized possession chikoo gets fulfilled.
Otherwise she doesn’t care much about all three.
if she did, she would have told kids family stories, how Shiva took care of Store when young , how shiva fought to get money for chutki,
How Raavi never let them lift a finger when her & Rishita were pregnant.
But all bhaji does is manipulate, gaslight, add fears, anxiety in young kids. Do weird promises for no reason & go all out committing crimes for that.
lies lies and control.
They honestly think they are making bhabhi Suman look bechara others bad- but as a mother- wife- daughter-daughter in law: I feel only for Raavi & rishita prerna are right in wanting to step out.No one can live under such suffocating clutches.
Guilt tripping your sons, and playing baghban music doesn’t work with narratives they have set.
whatever they are showing is plain filthy. Again.
I am with you as well. I am a mother, daughter, DiL , Bhabi, Devrani, Jethani all in one, I felt for Raavi, Rishita and Prerna. All 3 have been vilified just to whitewash Suman and Bhabima and absolve them from all their crimes.
I have grown up in a joint family until I was married to my husband and pushed into a nuclear family. I could clearly see the difference between the 2 and my mother lost out on many things in her life post marriage which I gained after my marriage with a nuclear family setting.
I am still close with all my cousins (ofcourse my own sisters too) we still reminisce about our growing up phase together yet we are all happy in our own lives, none of us are missing the joint family system as we have seen the effects if it. Still our family was not as pathetic as Kandyas. My mom being the badi bahu was nothing liike Bhabima because my grandmother who was a widow too, had an iron fist. She was the matriarch and a tyrant too, yet she was manageable but Suman and Bhabima are incorrigible, no redemption or recourse for both of them.
