^^totally agree with you gp. Infact in another post about Menka turning -ve, i commented about that. I'll post those comments here as well. This is what i wrote about Baa and the others' constant and repetitive praising of Sav:
I agree that Menka is purely evil to the core. There is absolutely no doubt about that. But why do Baa, Hal, Phul and the rest of them have to overdo their praising of Savitri. When they used to praise and worship Menka in the early days, they totally ignored Savitri and made her feel like a nobody, just like they are doing with Menka now, and now they are praising Savitri day in and day out and ignoring Menka and making her feel secondary and unimportant. This is where they always go wrong. Yes, when Menka was pampered and Sav ignored.. Sav did not turn evil and mean.. because that's the kind of person she is. But Menka is not like that. And everyone in the family knows that, esp Baa. And yet they constantly keep praising Sav and pushing Menka into feeling insecure and ultimately towards being evil and mean. Menka had changed her bad ways and now if she reverts back to her old mean self then that would be totally thier fault. They really need to learn to treat every member of the family equally. Everyone loves attention esp Menka. Then why not give equal attn to both Menka and Savitri, Savitri for the good person she is and the good things she does and Menka for trying to become a better person.
