Shiv and anandi complimented each other and Shiv had become an integral part of the show than just a supporting husband with his own space and in very few serials this happens. Sometimes I was tempted to name this serial as Collector Saab instead of Balika Vadhu.
They could kill only the male lead and make the female lead cry and feel the void. Not the other way.
Now coming to the economics. Shiv was earning and I think he was the main breadwinner. Now how will they cope with so many mouths to feed and taken care of? Will Anandi start working for salary? Then who will take care of her kids? Ira and Meenu? Will Mahi come back and take responsibility of the family?
So many questions.
