Secrets, lies and Complicated Relationships

And that in itself is a reason to watch the show.

From the first episode itself we saw that all the inhabitants of Lal mahal had secrets. Starting with the strong Satrupa who gave away her child because Guruji had told her to. The only problem was she gave away the wrong child. Guruji had asked her to give away the eldest but she chose to keep her son and give away her daughter. Was it because she wanted to keep her son near her or was it because she wanted to protect her daughter?

And Baldev. A man who comes across as weak and appearing to feel shame for having a child out of wedlock and vehemently refusing to accept Anami as his daughter. Baldev and Satrupa have no relationship at all and were only bound by their love for their son Vatsalya.

Vatsalya. The truly innocent one of the family who was adored by his parents and Grandparents. A loving child who even had compassion for his half-brother Narotham who is despised by the rest of the family. But even he had enemies. His Uncle Pujan hated him for being chosen by Daadaji to run the company which he believed was his right.

Pujan is a wolf in sheep's clothing. Ready to appear meek and submissive in front of the family but all the while plotting to take over everything. He was ready to gamble his life's son in order to get what he wanted. And he has the support of his bully son Avdoot and equally ambitious wife Kaamini to do what he wants.

And the heroine of the story. Anami.

A feisty, strong yet loving girl who grew up hating her birth mother. Desperate to be the real daughter of Pandit and his wife, she is lashing out and is determined to make everyone's life hell in Lal Mahal. Especially her mother's. The ironic thing though is that Anami is exactly like Satrupa. They are both strong and stubborn, yet have the ability to love and care deeply. Despite Satrupa not showing her feelings, she does care so much for Anami. When Anami slept with hunger pains, stubbornly refusing to eat, it was Satrupa's heart that cried.

And not forgetting Sudha who is in a mental home but seems to know everything that happens in the Lal mahal. Who is she and what is her connection to the inhabitants of the palace.

It is so refreshing to see a show where no one is perfect. As openly evil as Pujan is, Satrupa, Baldev, Narottam and even Daadaji seem too have many hidden secrets. It will be interesting to watch all the layers of each mystery unfold and how every life in that household will be affected.

An intriguing show with great acting and direction.

Hey JJ

I think that's what makes the show so interesting as the most of the characters in the show have flaws.

Hey sravss

Every character seems to have a secret. And Adiraj's connection to Lal mahal seems to have something to do with his family.

Sudha is painting her Lal Mahal and is playing her own game through Narotham. Pujan plays his game through everybody .

Vikramaditya by anointing Satrupa and disinherited his son is playing his game

All game players think Anamu is foisted on the family

Dadi has had dreams of a baby girl too and is willing to accept Anami in her heart.

The grandmother has her game too without the DNA test to verify her hunch.

Anami has her plan to go back to beneras.adiraj has his plan to unravel the mystery.

Avdoot has his plan to track Adirajs sister.

Each of them has a game plan ...it's interesting to see whose plan works and how and the damage it will cause.

It's not Pujan's right to claim. It's Baldev's. And about Sudha we can guess she is the one who Baldev connected with before he got married to Satrupa n so far what has shown she could be the mother of Narottam. It won't be acceptable or convincing if they show it as Satrupa giving the girl for her own safety n wellbeing when she's born. Personally I'm not gonna buy that when it's crystal clear it was not her intention. Because if it was the reason where has she been all these years without even knowing Anami is alive. All of a sudden she remembered her long given away daughter. Why. Because her chosen son is no more. Where all thesw care, pain n love when the poor girl was struggling for 17 years alone. Knowing someone has thrown her away. Only hope was her foster family. It's her real family. Where was Satrupa n her love when Anami was fighting on road with gangsters alone. Did she know that or other things she faces in a day of her life. She was singing n dancing with his chosen son when the girl was struggling. Even after his death she didn't remind of Anami it was the old woman with her n guruji who reminded her about Anami. She didn't even care for the girl for all those years passed nor she thought about her education, comfort, wellbeing at least not even she's alive or not. I like Satrupa but justifying what she's done is impossible.
