That rasam is done by the ladki's mother.
But a part of me wants to interpret it this way -
That today, Mini will let go of her responsibility as Babita's mother. Mini ke Babita ki bidaayi ho gayi, Mini ke coach baane ki bidaayi ho gayi.
And now welcome Babita the Mom and Mini the child, in the grihapravesh.
Btw it'd be really rude if HS doesn't consider Mini for that and act as promised, welcoming the mother daughter alike. I don't want him to just forget her or ignore her.
In all that HS said today, he never once discarded his feelings for his daughter or reduced her importance in his life. He still maintained that she was the most important. He was hurting so much but was still willing to walk away from this wedding, from Babita, and by extension even Minnie, just for her happiness. Minnie ko gnore karne ka sawaal hi paida nahin hota.
He is grappling with the doubt that the daughter, jispe woh jaan chhidakta hai, doesn't love him after all.
