A mother in law has a very important role in a couple’s relationship. In this case Leela was saying this from day 1 that anupama is not ideal for her son. She accepted that she always saw her flaws never appreciated her. This laid foundation of their marriage n Vanraj never considered her equal n loved her. Her constant brainwash made their marriage a burden. she didn’t allow Anu to study, become modern n connect with the outside world.
Instead of making efforts to make their bond strong she always criticized Anu, her family n Vanraj’s Dadi’s bad choice.
