Overcoming egoes

Mannu has to move on. And even his parents should learn how to find a middlepath.

The only way they can get to him is through Pooja.

They can talk to her, be nice to her and this will surely make Mannu realise that parents are not against his friendship.

Pooja is a good girl and she will take care of him and his studies as a good friend.

Here ganga and Jagya should forget their egoes and try to come to mannu's level and try to renew their ties with him through Pooja.

The other option for them is lose him forever. The way Sumitra lost Jagya during his Gauri phase and Ganga phase.

I am not sure why J or G are so much against Pooja. I understand seeing them as close as hugging, could be slightly daunting for Parents.

In my circle I have seen parents facing rebelling kids due to various reasons. Those who were ready to forget their egoes and compromise, won their kids back.

But Ganga was so much always against Pooja. Is it because Pooja is a girl or a girl of a lower cast?

Why does Ganga want to resrtict Mannu from having a female friend?

Jagya and Ganga both at one stage fell in love and looked out for nobody's emotions. They got married overlooking everyone's emotions and wishes, just because 'they thought it was right'. So how are the same parents failing to appreciate a friendship between children of next gen?

Now dadisa should remind Jagya of those incidents.

Mannu was not really a rebelling child. But Ganga really turned his world upside down.

In BV - we hardly know about caste of characters except in case of Gopal. I don't think it is about caste. They did show Ganga thinking that this friendship will be a distraction for Mannu as his board exams were coming. The reason seemed right (Pooja-Mannu seems to think themselves as girlfriend- boyfriend and perhaps included I love u also in their conversation) but her handling of the situation was wrong. She should have had a heart to heart talk with Mannu - explaining why she thinks this friendship will distract him etc. instead of warning Pooja and her mother. Similarly - J may have slapped Mannu at the spur of the moment - but this is not right approach to make a teenage boy understand especially when he is already seething with resentment towards his parents.

There are many ways to tackle Mannu and one of them is not to forcefully separate him from Pooja.

It will only boomerang.

They saama, daana, bheda , dand. Convince, bribe or show incentive, create differences, punish.

The first option is the best option.

That wont happen. CVs do not like to highlight the wrong actions / perceptions of their leads.

When they tried to keep Ratan away from Mannu, fate brought them together.

The more they try to wean him away from Pooja, will only bring them together.

Jagya is not averse to Pooja personally while ganga is averse to Pooja personally.
That is the difference between them.

And now no one is giving him space. Rather suffocating him.

Ganga and Jagya really need to think through and handle Mannu differently.

But knowing the track record of CVs, Mannu will go wrong to the extremes... so much and so bad that ultimately J and G will come out clean. No realization of their mistakes and Mannu will be seeking forgiveness for even things that he did right.
