I always felt Anirudh filed that petition thinking about the countless girls in society who are the victims of child marriage than for Bondita. He can easily save Bondita from the swamp of child marriage. He has to only take her away from RC haveli to Calcutta or London. Their problem will be solved. But all girls out there don't have an Anirudh for their support. So for them, he made that petition.
But now he is facing the personal consequences of it.Like the Brahmo samaj people said havan cannot happen without aahuti. Society is asking to sacrifice the most important person in his life for a greater good.
And Anirudh is torn between two commitments. His responsibility towards Bondita, his promise to make her future bright and his responsibility towards society. Choosing Bondita's responsibility will give him personal happiness but his righteous mind is not allowing him to be that selfish. That is his dilemma.
About showing Anirudh and Bondita as sad, that is only natural. Whatever may be the nature of their relation, there is no doubt that they are deeply attached to each other. They are the most important persons in each other's lives. Annulment means separation. So how can we expect them to be happy to leave the most important person in their lives?!
Sometimes social reformers have to pay a heavy price to bring some change in society. They are trying to show the personal sacrifice of Anirudh and Bondita for a greater good.
Bondita cannot live with RC's without any proper relation. You know what will be the identity given to her by society. For an argument we can agree that she can live there as sampoorna's relative. But do you think people with immense self respect like Sumati and Bondita will stay there after annulment? Sumati refused to stay there with Bondita earlier as it will compromise her self respect. So Definitely they will not stay there
@Bold 1 is the answer to @bold 2
Child marriage with Bondita was an impulsive decision taken in a very difficult situation, now Anirudh has time to think and act on something which will free Bondita from Child marriage and protect her from the society
He is after all a very powerful man
I am saying it again society is against her education too but it doesn't mean Anirudh should keep her at home, he sent her to school against wishes of society, so this society is just an excuse, they can gossip but they have no legal power
Bondita will be a Barrister, this will be her identity, by getting his marriage annulled Anirudh will pave the way towards a social reform, if he is against ending his own child marriage then does he really have any moral ground to ask other people to stop it?
Sumati's young daughter was getting married to an old man, she was about to die when Anirudh saved her, staying in RC house is the least she can do for Bondita
Anyway, when Anirudh filed the petition he said he is doing so because Kaku said that there's nothing to end their marriage, do watch the episode where Barristers came to meet Anirudh and Bondita got a tattoo
That Anirudh and this Anirudh are two different people
