I've been saying Baa is the worst for a long time now but for some reason, this woman gets whitewashed after misbehaving for 10-15 episodes. Finally her hypocrisy has come full circle because of her distaste of Anuj Kapadia.
Baa has been regressive since the very beginning. Here's how:
1) Baa was a bitch to Anupamaa for 25 years and expected her to be an ideal wife who never questions her husband. However, Baa has never done this with her own husband and constantly questions every decision he makes, especially if his decision does not favour her son.
2) Baa constantly tried to get Anupamaa back together with Vanraj even after the family found out about his affair. The man was living with his girlfriend, had a fight and an accident and then moved back home only to have Baa constantly tell Anupamaa to give him massages and treatment.
Kinjal even questions Baa at the time asking how she can ask Anu to serve Vanraj despite knowing everything, but she simply talks about how Kinjal doesn't have any respect.
3) Kavya moves into the Shah house after Vanraj's accident despite her having had an affair with him for 9 years. Yes Baa constantly taunts her, but the woman still lets her live in her house hurting Anupamaa, proving that she will do anything for her son's happiness, even if it means screwing over her so-called daughter Anupamaa.
4) When Vanraj's affair comes to light, Baa is ashamed and slaps her son. However, this is literally all she does to him. After this, Baa constantly berates Kavya accusing her of manipulating her son, taking her son away and god knows what else. The point is, Baa is a toxic Indian mom who blames his son's extra marital girlfriend for a sin he himself has commited.
5) Baa is totally against the divorce and constantly tries to patch things up between Anupamaa and Vanraj, including the time she sends them on a trip out of town alone. That was honestly just bullshit. Pakhi doing all of that makes sense, she doesn't want her parents to be seperated and doesn't understand the struggle since she's a child. But baa is an adult, who is whitewashed for this bullshit as well.
6) Anupamaa falls ill and Baa decides to become the ultimate mom. However, as soon as she finds out about Nandini's pre existing "can't get pregnant" drama, she immediately lashes out at Anupamaa and berates her in front of the family. Keep in mind, that Anupamaa was still ill and could've had very little time left.
7) Baa constantly berates Kavya after she marries Vanraj. It seems that 25 years of making her mistakes with Anupamaa, Baa still has no remorse since she decides to continue the same pattern with her new 'bahu'.
She hates Kavya because she married her son. She constantly finds faults in Kavya and compares her to Anupamaa, who she emotionally abused for 25 years. However, none of this angst is ever directed towards Vanraj.
How can you be mad Kavya for marrying Vanraj but not at Vanraj for marrying Kavya? Matlab kuch toh sense rakho?
8) Baa is extremely hurtful and only needs one poke to turn into the evil incarnate that she currently is. She was all fine with Anupamaa for all this time, but as soon as things don't go her way for one second she tries to hurt and berate her ex DIL.
She asks Kavya to serve food to her at the table instead of Anu, knowing that this will hurt Anupamaa, only because she decides to accept Anuj's partnership. But it was more than that, she does it to manipulate anupamaa and guilt her into leaving the position which is literally evil.
Baa deserves to see her son fall into the great depths of hell along with his idiotic wife. Hope this show stops whitewashing this annoying character ever 20 episodes. Screw you Baa, hope your jhoola breaks.
