Hello!
Mr Rawat is being the hot topic on forum, of course for his Chauvinism 😆
here is my analysis on him 😆
He always dreamed of having a boy so that his son would join army n continue his legacy but he was gifted with a daughter. Daughters too can join army but in our country, girls are not sent to wage a war so he was disappointed. so his disappointment is understood but that does not mean he should blame his daughter for that
A father's responsibility is to give good upbringing to his children like good education, good food n all and he has done that all, he has almost fulfilled all her wishes. He may not have done it directly but through Sarita he has done. he has fulfilled all his responsibilities except one-loving his child, making her feel that her father does care for her, her father loves her. he has failed to express his love/care for her.
Anjali thought that if she do something which his fathers loves, he would definitely love her n she ended up doing EVEREST Expedition. she is taking all the pain to win her father love.
when Mr. rawat knew about it, he was astonished. Everyone is thinking that what ever he is saying is wrong n he don't love his daughter.
I would like to differ.
for me, he is experiencing multiple emotions
Firstly, he could not digest the fact that his daughter wants to fulfill his incomplete dream. he is surprised.
secondly, being an army man, he knows the difficulties anjali had to face as she moves closer to her goal. He is afraid of losing her, he genuinely cares for her. When he says, Anjali is ordinary girl who cant do it, he isn't putting her down. All he wants to say is that she has been a simple girl who don't have physical strength n I agree with him BUT according to me physical strength comes from mental strength and Anjali is very strong mentally and her father is unaware of it. He don't know his daughter completely so I can understand his point. See, if your father says that doing a particular thing is dangerous, you cannot do it, you are not capable of doing it that does not means he is bringing you down, he is just showing his care n concern for you. Not all fathers will support such a deathly task/goal in a sporting way. even my father dont allow us to do many things which have the slightest possibility of getting us hurt but on other hand my mom believes in allowing us to do whatever we want as she believes that it will help us learning the harships of life n fighting them back
thirdly, he is afraid that he'll be blamed if anything wrong happens to anjali during Expedition. he is afraid that everyone will criticize him, curse him, abuse him, insult him as she risked her life o fulfill his dream.
lastly, his male ego is not allowing him to appreciate his daughter. He ego is hurt for two things-one, the daughter to whom he never showed love rather didn't loved is trying to fulfill his dream and somewhere is being ashamed and the dream of climbing Everest which was his dream, he cannot fulfilled is being fulfilled by his DAUGHTER rather than SON

He is calling her back so that no one blames him if something bad happens to her n also somewhere he too dont want his daughter to hurt herself.
Rawat dont show any emotions to anyone, he always have a straight face(must be difficult for actor playing it😆) I never saw him smile So if he even cares for Anjali he wont express it
If hugging n pampering is considered as showing a way of affection than that means even my father dont love love me 😆 as he has never hugged but its not a truth 😆
there are others ways of showing concern like saath baith kar baatein karna, aapki life mai kya chal raha wo puchna , these things does show care n affection but Mr. Rawat doing it, wont suit him considering his stiff n emotionless personality 😆

p.s. Its completely my opinion others are allowed to differ 😛
I Kinda like Mr.Rawat's character (but whenever he says those degrading lines, i feel like throwing something at him 😆) solely because his feelings n emotions are tightly covered in his heart, he never shows them n that makes me curious to read his thoughts n intentions 😆

He also says that he would have supported every step in the everest expedition had it been his son. Are the dangers any lesser for men on the Everest? Beyond a point it is a question of mental strength than physical. Hasn't he seen women mountaineers achieve? His only cause of disbelief in Anjali is that she is a girl...and weak...

Just that he has seen Anjali too good and too obedient a daughter that he thinks she is weak. But there is more strength in goodness than boldness. What strength of mind Sarita has to send her only daughter to one risky expedition behind her husband's back. In fact Jagat may be a brave army man, but he is a blinkered coward who cannot see the truth or admit that he could have been wrong all these years in his assessment of his daughter. None is as blind as those who will not see. Rawat is a blind narrow minded chauvinist...

With due respect to the TM, I completely disagree with this different kind of love and care for daughter . You don't need to showcase your love, it shows on its own.
Rawat is a delusional man. For him the world revolves around the Indian Army and mountaineering only. Nothing else matters. He is like a Tangawallah's horse who knows to move in the straight direction only.

I have high regard for our men in the army. Despite this what we need to remember is that a strong nation needs support from all its citizens; with or without uniform. A strong army assures the security of the state but a prosperous state ensures a good security system. A good national and international policy will decide the fate of the army. This whole cycle is inter connected. For Rawat this doesn't exist. I understand he is upset that the family will not have another hero from the army but what about other security forces in India ? What about an IPS officer ? What about joining the RAW or say the CBI ? We don't have women there ?

Love and care for his daughter could have been understood if he was present when his girl topped the university exams. He thinks its nothing khas to top any university exam. She is but an ordinary girl and therefore the next day her marriage is finalized. Why can't his girl opt for higher studies or go for an IAS exam ? Marriage to whom ? Yes another army man and also in an army family. One army uniform decides the character of the groom ?

What dangers is he talking about ? Is it anyways different for sons ? Anjali is not the first girl to do it. Her father seemingly keeps no track about the women mountaineers in India. FOr a qualified man like him its pity that he is not even well informed. He said he would have supported his son in this mission. No, its not caring about her. Its simply pulling her down. He asked if others know his daughter more than him. Unfortunately he knows nothing about his daughter. Abhayankar, who have climbed the Everest 6 six times choose Anjali as his team mate and here a man who is supposedly a good mountaineer and possibly would have summit the Everest says this girl is not worthy of this job. Why and what qualifies him ? She has topped NIM too. Why this caring father doesn't tell her that beta come back and I will train you further before you do the final expedition ?No he calls her to tell her that he will forgive her if she returns and gets married now. Why is he concerned anyways ? Its not because whether she will survive or not. Its because if she fails people will blame him.



JImmedari khatam, umeed khatam after marriage ? He just wants to give away his daughter. Why fathers don't have responsibility after marriage? Fulfilling needs ,feeding children and marrying them off are not the only responsibilities of a father. If that was it then people would have given away their children to the orphanages and paid for their needs every month. Nothing excuses personal touch and personal touch doesn't means hugging your daughter. It means personal connection. It means being interactive with your children. Rawat fails here miserably.


He is also completely delusional about what strength means. Was Gandhi an army man who fought the British ? In Gandhi's words strength doesn't comes from physical capacity.

Rawat actually is a true representation of those men in our country who think women are made to bear the male child for them. Forget about his daughter, what about his wife ? Does he care to know what she thinks ? He would finalize the marriage on his own. His wife has no say in this matter ?

To be frank he can even lose his uniform if his chauvinism is reported. He should be left alone and the wife should have choose to part ways by now.
