Dear rash, I am not saying Archana did not tell Purvi about Manav at all, of course, she did, that is why that foolish girl developed such an attachment to her baba.Archana told Purvi her dearest wish was to reunite with her family, not once but constantly, it did not matter if she told Purvi once that her family did not want her, that makes it clear that even though that is her dearest wish to reunite, there is something impeding that reunion. Archana told Purvi that her family was not happy with the Arjun/Purvi marriage and that it had made her position more difficult, she did not disclose to Purvi that even if the marriage did not happen, she could not go back on the divorce because of her promise to Sachin.I am not saying Purvi was not stupid, she was grossly stupid. I am not saying Archana did not want Purvi to get married to Arjun, she did. I am not saying Archana does not love Purvi or prefers her over Ovi. I have written several posts that Archana loves Purvi perhaps more than her own kids. All I am saying is as a mother, she needed to have been a bit more careful in fostering a bond between Purvi and a non-existent dad, it is also unnatural for a mother to fill a young child's head with her own dreams of reuniting with her family, that becomes a burden on the child, especially to an adopted child. Archana is not perfect and that is my opinion. She is not a bad person she has great good intentions but it is not possible for me to view her as above reproach in every circumstance. She did keep secrets from Purvi, that is a fact. She did for a moment in time forget Purvi in her new found happiness at meeting Ovi (archana herself acknowledged this to Sulo), natural for any mother to do that, no blame on Archana for that. She did go decked up to Ovi's reception, leaving Purvi alone at home. She did not ask Sulo to stay back. At least Manav thought he left Ovi with his family when he came to do Purvi's kanyadan.I am sorry if my opinion does not agree with yours, it is not meant to hurt or offend but that is my point of view. Where Savita and Manav are concerned, I am happy that Archana is finally going to get her share of justice especially so because that has been brought about by the efforts of her own daughter Tej.
