Anuj should have waited for their marriage to settle down before bringing up adoption, agree. But that is also not where the problem lies.
Anuj had seen her affiliation to Shahs through the wedding. May be he thought of 2 things:
1. Anupama needs a reason to stay at Kapadia's, she has never been able to move on and probably does NOT intend on moving on. A child would be that reason to move on. Which failed miserably.
2. He never had anything to call his own (thanks to his myopic vision). Even with Anupama, he knew she had a baggage. It was his dream of a complete family with Anupama, the child being someone he called his own.
Anuj's fault is still that:
a. He did not protect Choti Anu calling out the treatment at the hands of Shahs.
b. Not standing up for himself against insults.
c. Not respecting his own family enough.
Anupama could have well had a mature conversation with Anuj and taken time to process what was happening. After a traumatic life, she should have compartmentalised her life. Most importantly, she should have taken therapy for her own well being.
absolutely correct
