@Anjali anf Soniya: Does he even care about Sreetama? Remember how he made excuse escaped on wedding day instead of talking to Sreetama about her decision of marriage and when Ratul came home with Nipa. His favourite line is I can't take it anymore not feeling well I am going to my room.
Dadai knows Siddhartha and Mithai love him alot and takes advantage of it. He knows Mithai's nature forgiving and selfless. Noone else could have tolerated what she did in terms of humiliation and insult. How easily he told Mithai keep your maan saman aside for a month. The whole divorce plan was to make his naati realise not once he thought about Mithai's feelings or emotions.
Well I'm not saying that he cares about Sree a lot, his fav is Sid coz he's the eldest n he is blindly biased towards him.. But like @Anjani said n you mentioned it too Mithai is DIL n in-laws will always support their Daughter over DIL as we've already seen in Nipa missing case.. He didn't utter a single word to support Mithai instead clearly showed his lack of trust in her.. In future too if something ever comes up where he would have to choose between Sree n Mithai, the man will easily push Mithai under a bus to save Sree..
