Ya I had seen some episodes on and off of Patiala Babes, since my mom used to watch. They had very nicely shown her struggles and success of becoming a working woman. Here Anu ke independent hone ke naam pe they just show her leaving for school or coming back from school, and wrapping up the dance class and we got one fire sequence which was also ok ok.
Patiala Babes was so good and refreshing in the beginning...
There Babita was actually a victim of circumstances, not a willing doormat... once she found out about the affair (despite having a 10 times worse situation than Anu) she took a stand for herself and left the house where neither husband nor in laws were respecting her...
And Babita was never dumb either, she failed to discover the affair for so many years because Ashok was living in another country and she hadn't met him in so many years, and once she found out she took the right decision...
I liked this show better than Patiala Babes because I find it more realistic overall, and many of the characters seemed better written and more complex...
But I have to say Babita as a character was far better than Anupama looking back... sad thing is in PB despite everything she did Babita was portrayed as not being particularly smart or capable and most of the praise was directed at her teen daughter Minnie, while here Anu is portrayed almost as a perfect superwoman 🤔...
