Analysis of RaniMa !!

When the show started RaniMa was everything mother, caretaker, adviser, peace maker, the glue that held everything and everyone together and even saving her sister marriage. Family disintegration now is superimposed against Rani's own emotional disintegration. I think every episode highlights her emotional fragility and the burden of carrying the torch for as long as she has. You might think Vani was the backbone of this family but no she and bhoomi were the bread winners but it was Rani's love and affection that nurtured this family all these years, something I don't think Bhoomi and Vani have fully acknowledged and appreciated. Bhoomi advising Surya today is the tip of the iceberg about how his real father is Chithappa not him, we bow down to Bhoomi for humbly accepting this fact something Vani has yet to openly acknowledge.

How Rani is reacting now is how she should have acted when Bhoomi did all the terrible things and humiliated her and her husband, infact I would even say that as soon as Vani stopped talking to her for a mistake she did not make she should have moved out then and made a life of her own all those years back. But now her misplaced anger and frustration is a result of all those years of pent up frustration and anger and resentment bottled up. Rani is proof that no human can be that good and noble and patient forever and everyone has a breaking point. She has been saint for too long and it was inevitable that now this should happen.

Rani's whole world is family. She is not a working woman like Vani where her job can provide her distractions from any other problems. Rani isn't any normal family woman she went beyond normal human tolerance and devoted herself to the betterment of the family. Bhoomi has said and done so many terrible things when she didn't break then why now, because of what happened due to Gautam marriage. When someone has invested themselves of so much into the family and you are pushed aside like nothing it leaves a deep hurt. I think Vani's words about Gautham about him being her son and combined with Saamy slap made Rani feel very small, she must have felt after all these years what does my sister really think of me.

I think she is feeling her illusion has finally broken, the illusion that her sister is god, and gautam and surya are just as much as her sons and that Vani holds rani and saamy in very high regard. Rani would have tolerated being under valued by anyone but Vani's words has hurt her causing Rani to crumble. Saamy has accused Rani she would rather be a sister to Vani than a wife for him. Do you wonder what impact that statement has on Rani psyche. Would she not think after all these years of devotion what does she have to show for how will she face her husband.

This is the same woman who spent 20 years in the same house with her sister not speaking to her. That is emotional abuse and when the first time Vani speaks she asks Rani to leave the house. I was so disappointed how easily writers forgot as if it is normal for two people to live under the same roof and not talk to each other Vani acted like it was her god given right to punish Rani and Rani took it all lying down. Rani wants to move away good for her my only question is she should have acted much sooner. I hope Vani realizes how deeply hurt her sister is and the writers don't write a band aid solution. She is running away from everyone as she fears no one really loves her as much as she loves them, the way Vani acted, what Surya did and Gautam the lone hero she could turn his back on her too, before she loses faith in the people she loves she wants to go away where her emotions are not trampled on. There is a lot of depth in these characters left to be explored, it will take great screenplay to pull it off.
