Ahh I see yes definitely Archana was insensitive during those scenarios. I don't know why she has to pick one thing. She doesn't know BALANCE. Always one thing over another.
Just because she wants one thing doesn't mean everyone else does. The way she was talking to Manav and Damodar after finding out the Ahaana truth really angered me. She had no sense of pity for Pari nor did she commend her on trying to move on in such a difficult situation.



For Archana it's about picking favourites between her children - she doesn't realize that she can be equally compassionate to both of them and the situation will be handled in a more mature way where pointless sacrifices won't be made and a lot of drama can be saved - but if the CVs made her character like that, there would be less scope for drama in this show. 😆

Nura I can't agree more!
This makes no sense whatsoever to me!
If you can't balance it out don't have more than one kid!!

So many issues could have been avoided.

a) waiting for Ovi's state-of-mind to get back in control before ArVi's marriage
b) annulling the deal marriage
c) Soham's heart break
d) forgetting about Teju in all of the mess


My feeling exactly Avni..

One more thing I'd like to add : The thing called effective communication lacks grossly in PR..
Ovi's heartbreak and Soham's lunacy were taken for granted... It was as if they were the only people who had to come out of their own... No efforts were taken to educate Soham-- it was just EXPECTED that he had to reform--- I feel out of all their children, Soham suffered the worst fate in the hands of his parents' --not only Archana's insensitivity..

Then due to the lack of heartfelt or matured communication among the elders and Arjun-Purvi-Ovi, all of them had to live without each other--- Could have been avoided if the parents or guardians took the initiative to clear the things or at least arrive at the true picture after some heart to heart communications-- It seems it was not necessary...

Even today they can talk with Karmarkars for a way out-- the one with minimum collateral damage. But NO, let's give in to Ankita's emotions--- To HELL with matured communication like always..

And that again makes them very gross and very insensitive parents..

Archana has always been insensitive, she is the worst mother/wife/grandmother ever in PR, she never bothered to get in contact with Ovi-Teju in their first 18 yrs of life, gave Soham away to Varsha knowing Varshas condition, when Soham came back she never bothered to reform him and kept throwing the Sachin-Gauri marriage in Sohams face, shes also the worst wife ever, always mistrusting Manav and doing court case against him just for trying to improve the chawl peoples lives and give them new flats, and now shes being such a terrible grandmother to Pari. She didnt even look at anything from poor Pari's POV or try to see how Pari must be feeling. Its true Ankita doesnt have anyone but this doesnt mean Pari isnt going thru any pain, Archana doesnt even care for Pari, shes only looking at things from Ankita's POV which is good but she needs to be neutral, and understand both of them. Shes not guiding Ankita correctly either and encouraging her to sacrifice, shes not helping either Ankita or Pari but making it worse for both of them. The way she pushed Pari to go in the Karmarkar Home and say its her own battle was very cruel of her.

Why only stupid ppl cry over break ups?! Thats an unfair generalisation and disrespectful to the people who actually suffered through and felt real heartache and pain.

Yes, her love for Manav was real and SHE too DID cry as was shown in many episodes. So I guess she too falls into the stupid ppl category by your own yardstick.

As for what the TM is saying, yes... I agree, Archana is sometimes insensitive to the point that it comes off as stupidity. She is however lead of the show, so they probably think its being "mahaan".


I understand it is hard to get over break ups but in my opinion it is wrong to act like devdas and make life miserable for the people around you.of course archana cried but she never let her pain affect her family even on the next day of her divorce she continued to live her life as she used to live before when she was unmarried though she was deeply hurt inside.

Exactly, Archana is very insensitive if you look deep into her character. From the whole Varsha track (giving her baby to her sister), to being blind to Ovi's - her daughter - suffering, to even the way she handled the Soham/Gauri situation, she has come off as insensitive.

Now she's just emphasizing the already clear character trait with this whole Pari thing. She doesn't even know that Ankita is her grand daughter yet, so who is Ankita doing this for? A stranger who conveniently has the same face as you? Okay fine, even if you're doing it as a good samaritan, is it a very "mahaan" thing to see your own grand daughter go through heartbreak?

With Varsha, she didn't give two damns about Manav. For Ovi, she kept on rubbing it in her face that the man who she was crazy about was getting married to her sister - where was the compassion for her daughter?! Even when Ovi left for Canada, she was shunned for hiding her pregnancy when her other daughter did the same thing and was treated completely differently. Once the truth was out, it was still the same jaap for Purvi - as far as I remember, there was no such scene where Archana confronted Purvi and told her that the assumption Purvi made was wrong, and because of Purvi's assumption, Archana had to live away from her daughter, Pari had to live away from her father, and Purvi had to separate from her husband for 20 whole years. She acts like she's so fair to all of her children and gives lectures all the time, but where did the lecture go then?

Now she is putting Pari is in this situation where she has to go back to the boy she has been trying to forget for the last two years for Ankita's sake. Why would you send your own daughter to a slaughter house, knowing that she was in love with Naren? All Pari would get from this is a daily reminder that she will never get Naren back because he's in love with someone else, and she's just being raised as a pig for slaughter. Once Naren realizes his marriage and accepts Ankita, she would have to walk out of his life with the biggest heartbreak ever. =/


She never did take Purvi's feelings into consideration after the Ovi Arjun marriage either. I remember the puja scene where Teju goes to make Purvi feel better. There was no overt heartfelt gratitude (except for one initial scene) that because of her daughter's sacrifice she was able to get her family back. And she put Sachin's stupid request over her love for Manav. That was totally senseless too.

They are all characters and so open to criticism and interpretation. What some viewers see as an innately good person with a God complex (mahaan), others might see as an insensitive person.

It is not a bashing topic. I am criticizing her for her insensitivity toward some other characters and how she mishandled situations and made them worse.

All I see is a topic that is opened to discuss insensitivity of a lead character... The points put so far are factual-- nothing has been twisted or assumed to put Archana--- the character down...

Besides even if it is bashing --- it is better to bash a FICTIONAL character based on the actual happening of a show rather than saying that REAL people who cry over heartbreaks are STUPID or WRONG 👏👏notwithstanding a simple consideration that each human being has a different coping mechanism with a grief or each person who faces a heartbreak needs time --- some less, some more to come out of that grief ..
