it's true women like ishwari do exist ,Most Indian women are over possessive about their boys .
In my case I was married to a complete mamas boy at the naive age of 22 .
My mil was always a very over possessive and insecure women at the time of marriage she asked me whether I was marrying him for green card 'I said I don't need a man to fulfill my ambition .i was double graduate with masters degree holder .
When I look at ishwari it's a flashback of do many emotions which come back ,the difference been I tried my best to work out the marriage one fine day I told my better half 6 months or we part ways .
It wouldn't work
Well she was insecure because her elder son moved away completely ,she has a dominating personality .
So just as ishwari she refused to except my presence in her sons life ,she addressed and needed to know everything including initiate details .
At one point she spoke and behaved well with me second place she told my hubby not to discuss finances or their home issues with me .
She also slept in between us as newly weds ,refused to let us go on honeymoon and so on..
Luckily I m a brilliant cook so that area she never said a word because there was nothing she had.
I had a hair cut after a severe depression n sickness the first thing she told me was my son won't like you 'That was after been married to him for two years .
Well nevertheless things hit rock bottom when one day i couldn't take it and just like sonakshi said you can't take me for granted I'm capable enough and will pick these shattered pieces .
That's day something ticked in my hubby and he realized that I was his responsibility too .
The son and mom had a big show down where she accused me of changing and brainwashing him.
Which my hubby said don't accuse her because it's her who has kept everything together after five years of marriage .
And if you were so good you would have successfull relation with your hubby ,elder son and dil .
You have to look mom you might be wrong somewhere .
Well after all said and done its 12 years of marriage she still taunts me on irrelevant stuff which I have learnt to ignore ,and whenever visiting us abroad she lives with us most time in our family home because I never made her feel this is my house it's our home for me that includes them .
Last year after all said and done she told me my son is closest to me no one will take my place ..I said mom no one can take your place your his mom ,will always be and you have a 9 month deeper connection to him.but it is essential and part of a family when a girl gets gets married they have to be close and understand each other .
To which my hubby told her my biggest confidante has been my wife ,if anything at all she taught me how to keep relations !!! That's my biggest. Compliment
Today I am a mother of a son ..and I hope I open my heart to my future daughter in law !!
She might be different ethnicity or anything but she is his love that's what matters
