I am in two minds about ganga. One part of me says, she is right in not showing too much warmth and acceding to the request. It is not because they ill treated her. It is the present that makes ganga apprehensive. If mannu comes to know the truth, how he may react.She knows mannu is sensitive and this truth may upset him. His bond with Jagya may not be the same afterwards. Even his bond with abhi may change.
While Jagya is confident that he can deal with mannu and his trauma. Thats why he is encouraging ganga to tell the truth and get it over once and for all. Otherwise it will always be like Damocles's sword hanging overhead.
Well Ganga's fears regarding Mannu Ratan issue are understandable but the way she is handling the issue will make things worse.
How Mannu will react is a big issue that has made her push this thing under carpet for too long.
Now Mannu got to know about Jagya Anandi child marriage issue. This issue may not affect Shivam and Anhi that much since they are small kids and don't as of now know what a failed marriage means But Mannu is a little older than these two kids and he just becoming aware of man woman relationship.
Jagya did tell him in a very tactful way and yet without hiding the truth about his child marriage.
But still Mannu's mental image of his father received a dent.
In this scenario if truth about biological father comes out Mannu may not take it well.
One secret which was hidden all these years from them had come out and soon after that another truth comes out it will be too much for him to take.
This would have been much better if Ganga agreed to Jagya's stand tackled the bull by it's horns way back then.
Now Bimla will try EB and she is so desperate she may even scheme and plot to make Mannu Ratan meet happen without Ganga's consent or knowledge then things will get uglier.
It is not about Ratan's rights to see his son but about people's behaviour towards a dying man on one side and Mannu's right to know the truth.
It would be so much better if the truth comes from his mother and not Bimla.
If he gets to know from Bimla it will be even worse I hope Ganga realises that.
It is better she reaches him first before anyone else.
Only two options Either she tell Mannu about Ratan or risk the consequences of Mannu knowing it from Bimla.
If truth is hidden it comes out in the most ugly manner - Mannu doesn't deserve that.The fact thta J is adopted father and Ratan is biological father is not going to change it may come out on it's own.But it is better for him if Ganga tells him.
