But Iāll just repeat what I already said two pages back. Aparna is not an AC no matter the hurtful things sheās saying right now cuz the context and tareeka matters.
Again, itās fine if some people feel Aparna has reached the point of no return for them over this. To each their own. But the same way I didnāt write Adi off over the hurtful things he said when he was confused and upset, Aparna doesnāt get written off yet either.
There is a deep, ROOTED love Aparna has for Imlie that is going to weather this haze of darkness and hurtfulness she is lashing out about right now. To me, her mean words canāt overshadow all the love her actions have demonstrated. Again, itās not to say sheās some perfect mom. She clearly has her own selfish and class conscious side too. But she is an inherently good person who loves Imlie and that will prevail ultimately.
She hasnāt ever really lowered Imlieās worth over being the house help. She is only saying all this to push Imlie away in her hurt. That is why itās not getting to me that much š¤·āāļø
+100 Bold so true.
There is so much to write and catch up on... can I say the buildup towards the revelation was totally unexpected.. that was a nice move from the makers. some thoughts below on Apu's words.. and her reaction.
Imagine yourself as Apu and suddenly one day, your son introduces the girl who has been living in your house as a maid is called her bahu, saying he is married to her.. the shock that she received along with the others is huge... no way she can accept it at face value. Normally when the son gets married, all the naam, khoon, khandaan is looked at and then marriages are fixed. Even if the son is dating someone like Malini, they knew the family bg etc and approved of the shaadi, even tolerated all the insults etc from Anu as they are khandaani... etc.. I know that folks cannot digest this.. but trust me real life..aisa hi hai...
Next up, how come Apu forgot all that Imlie has done for them... she has not forgotten them but in light of what has just been revealed, the deception is a far bigger thing. She showered Imlie with affection and in return Imlie deceived her, that is all Apu can focus on right now. She is very hurt and in that hurt, she is lashing out at her son/bahu in pain, calling her names, that are difficult to hear.. but that is exactly how a person would react in real life.. they all know that Imlie does not have a father's name or know nothing about her bg, just that she is from a village.. they know she is intelligent n smart.. simple.good. etc
This is same with Apu, as long as Imlie was the maid, they are ok with things and will shower her with love.. when it affects them directly, then it is a diff issue, they are answerable to society n relatives.. we have seen that they are concerned about that.. Imlie is a 3rd person, easy to dismiss whereas Malini checks all the boxes on paper. She is accepted by society and has the pedigree too.
Unless we judge a person purely on their actions and not by naam, khoon, khandaan, this vicious cycle will keep repeating. That is what the makers want to show here I think.. change in the mentality of the Tripathis from denial to acceptance, the journey of Adilie together too
Looking forward to the discussions š
Superb gifs and caps from both of you as always @AY, @NM šš¼
