Noone is saying babita should do seva or anything or she is obligated to put her life on hold nope all we are saying is she can think of it as mini'a duty towards her grandparents too esp when they haven't wronged mini at all. They are a separate entity from ashok and that's it. She cannot decide for mini and her grandparents and what kind of relationship they want to share
But my parents are together. They have a wonderful Marriage. They go lengths for each other. Hence, Mom does so for my father.
Babita is divorcee. Mini can have her relations with her grandparents. Babita is stopping her but she will learn to understand that. My problem is expecting Babita to take them under same roof.
I stay away here in USA, I don’t do anything for my grandparents. It’s absolutely unfair if I call my mom and tell her that I have feelings for grandparents, you please look after them. Am I going to do anything? No.
Mini will go to college. Will be busy in her life exams. HS to his thane. Who ends up doing things for Khuranas? Babita. Cooks for them. Does chores after them.
I don’t agree about old age here. What if someone tortured their Bahu all their life for dowry and various other things, their time comes and they become ill so they start giving old age duhaai? Should they be forgiven? Why?
It’s like you do bad all your life but old age mein to you will be execused coz old age hai to chalta hai.
What do they say? You reap what you sow. Khuranas kids is what they sowed. Extremely selfish. And Babita was fine with them. But even in her wedding Lovely taunted her and Biji sided with lovely. That was last straw. I do not blame Babita at all for not wanting to do anything wit them. She is so right.
