@ Rohini,
So well said. Jagya can only settle in a relationship where is he a dominant partner. And I agree that superficially Jagan look great but as you said he is the boss at home and outside. And ganga is never going to boss him or outshine him.
In a way all 3, Anandi, Gauri and Saanchi outshone him. Anandi through wisdom, Gauri through career and Saanchi through her personal and family background. Saanchi was not as meek as Jagya may have wanted. And this is something Jagya cannot put up with. The moment his women outshine him, he will look out for the next less-dominant option. Ganga fitted the box well.
Honestly speaking JaGan marriage can be viewed as a best deal that both J and Gang got. Ganga couldn't have got a better life than this. She was always so used to harsh dominance from Ratan and his family that compared to that Jagya was of a different league altogether. J's dominance would just be negligible for her. No wonder she respects him and owes it to him for a good life. And one cannot take away the credit from J that he is fairly changed and matured. (Although I cannot vouch if he genuinely loves Ganga)
On the other hand Ganga was good enough for J as she had a combination of all the 3 traits that J was missing in his previous females. She was well-educated unlike Anandi, but homely unlike Gauri and not dominating at all unlike Saanchi. So it was a good DEAL marriage.
Coming to Guari, she has nothing to add to the show.
I can undertsnd that all along she thought J was with Anandi (rather a committed man) and she didn't want to do anything anymore with him.
Now she saw that he has totally changed, is more likeable and single, so she wants to revive her lost life by re-uniting. Accepatable.
What is not acceptable is she has barely tried to know what he did in the past 2 years and whether they are standing on the same equation after 2 years? She is suddenly into a dream land of her own... We are talking about a successful and well-educated doctor here, not some love-crushed teenager. Does it really make sense for her to keep yearning for J? This track is crap and Cvs have butchered Gauri. This is nothing to do with women-empowerment.
Even if J was really single, should Gauri have started jumping like this without trying to know anything about him.

A very nice post.
Totally agree that this the the best deal for both J as well Ganga. Actually it's the best deal even DS could get. . She would never ever get a working grand dil who finds time to cook, clean , massage her feet and impress her in every way possible. If he had gone for an arranged marriage, the girl would be like - is this some kind of circus where one woman works, cooks, cleans, takes care of kids, and still has time to massage the old woman's feet and give milk to her husband before sleeping...? Thank god that ganga was so needy and desperate to settlewith J. Else she wouldn't have been able to survive in that circus.
