Exactly. Infact I don't know why Anuj thinks Anupamaa is strong, independent. She doesn't need any support. He is so wrong, she is totally a doormat. He did see how Vanraj taunted her in ofc and she was ready to leave.
She wasn't even ready to go to present her ideas, kinhal and bapuji had to push her.
She just says I am independent, mein ghar se bahar Nikki. She did gain bit of financial independence but emotionally she is still stuck there. She feels she is still answerable to vanraj, baa even worse she clarifies herself to Kavya.
She is absolutely not doing anything for self improvement or care. To start off if she was strong she would brush up her skills or learn a new skill. But all she does is baa bapuji Samar blah blah and lectures.
Anuj is wrong if he thinks Anupamaa doesn't need support. She def needs big support to understand that being happy is not wrong. Thinking about urself is not wrong. Vanraj should not matter in her life. His parents you can take care but let them not run ur life.
