Hi,
Sorry I had missed your tag at first. Thought I had replied to you, but found this in my drafts š.
Below is my understanding of the word choot. I had posted it in another post which asked about choot.
I only thought that the word was probably used like saying he has not been strict or stern with her about a few things. That he should have clearly set some rules that these will not be accepted or tolerated.
And that she has misunderstood and taken things for granted because he has supported her many times. Like taking more liberty type. It is not about giving freedom, it is about taking liberty on things which she has no rights on or no business with.
Her getting Devi married this way, behind is back is wrong. He would have never imagined for her to such a big step or decision on her own. The action has made him think that he has let her misuse the support that he had extended to her.
His Dad and Kaku stopped her from getting close to Devi and it was him who had told them that it is okay and Sai only has good intentions for Devi and will never harm her. He thinks that if he had listened to them and not let her get close to Devi, this wouldn't have happened.
I thought if this is what he could have meant. Just my opinion.
