Mangala's story has no appeal without Anandi and her daughter.
Nobody really cares about Mangala Kamili or Mangala Harki etc stories.
Other Jhalra wasis' stories appeal or no appeal doesn't seem to depend on the presence of Anandi and Nandini in those stories.
Depending on how long they want to drag the show they will decide whether she is faking or not faking.
This mental health centre story is only to bring out a discussion on attitudes people have towards mentally ill people.
Whether Mangala is mentally ill or not Anandi Nandini story is not going to change.
They are just using mission Mangala to forge a bond of understanding and trust between mother and daughter.
Ideally I would have liked Anandi educating Nandini about the ills of child marriage by involving her in one of her projects bonding over those activities.
