Hi,
As part of my phenomenology (subjective experience), I think somewhere down the line I stopped seeing the actor and started focusing on who the character is. For this reason, I am sometimes extremely curious and become engrossed as to how some characters often behave. You could say, I sometimes put aside my idea of reality. I forget temporarily that I am watching a fictional T.V. Show.
Of course, this story is Anupamaa’s but without those around we would probably understand her less. We do not doubt Bapuji’s feeling for Anupamaa and some other house members. I will not address Toshu’s view here at all. Baa’s behaviour towards Anupamaa has always been grey. I could never make up mind about whether she really is as tough as she seems. Or she’s just basically trying to be her mother-in-law but in fact she is actually just hiding behind her pressure from the historic behaviours.
But since the day she argued against Rakhi and reprimanded for her saying: say whatever you may but not to my daughter-in-law and when she asked Anupamaa how she feels about Anirudh’s accusation, I have always been tempted to think that she does have a soft corner for Anupamaa after all.
I am really hoping that the precap of Tuesday’s episode, where they walk into his moment shame with Kavya and Baa slaps Vanraj while regretting he is her son and turns around to Anupamaa. I hope this moment really is all Baa’s and how she does not too stand cheating. I hope she takes the betrayal and becomes a companion for Anupamaa and I hope she understands then the change in her daughter-in-law and how despite Vanraj’s betrayal she didn’t leave their sound and has in fact become even caring for them.
I actually feel so much hope from Baa. It’s like my heart is my throat for Anupamaa. I am having such a pleasant experience of seeing this show from the start. Perhaps, a little more now than before. The dialogues are wonderful and everyday you see a passion to learn something new. I know it is only a show, but I’m so deep into the show. I think I love the show! It’s been a long time since I’ve actually enjoyed a show.
What do you all think? Will Baa surprise us (I won’t be since I’m hoping she will anyway)? Or will she blame Anupamaa? You see, I think given the way story is going forward, I think it would make sense it for it to get stronger. It would totally ruin the whole all going good streak they have going on.
I hope Leela meets my expectation.
