Perhaps because I am ancestrally from the same part of India as Sana I get her and understand her as much as it is possible to get a stranger.
I know the passion, the zest for her life, I know the cunning ,the drama and the fool hardiness and those witty one- liners and the anger that flares up and dies as suddenly as it flared up.
I know the fascinated envy which with she watched Madhurima because I used to get the same from my rural cousins.
I get the sense of alienation, the sense of being an outsider and I get why she would bond with the Kesari’s and the Vishal’s
I get her regressive thought process because I know the patriarchal society that she comes from.
I get her complete lack of knowledge about most of India because when you live in a Punjabi village your general knowledge is limited to the village and Canada and U.K if you have family living there😆
I get her need to talk to everyone in the house because that is what village folks do
I dont get her neediness or her attention seeking - those are rather unique to her.
Sana is a real woman to me with all her flaws and foibles and that is why I root so much for her.
