True that, but honestly she's been traumatizing others as well. She definitely has somewhat stockholm syndrome towards her MIL - I mean who the heck would ever put up with that? It's really illogical and insane how she cared more about that toxic MIL than her own mother. The writers have a way of using negative psychology to gain audience attention. They don't care about pleasing them and sending a good message, they just care about their own profits at any cost. They drive audiences in with the so called "women empowerment" narrative and then boom turn it into the typical saas bahu trauma. See that with choti Anu/Rahi whatever her name is. It started off with her being the rebellious one calling out Anupama for her hypocrisy for staying with Shahs and then now she's becoming another Anupama getting married into the family of Leela sasu 2.0. And it's so funny how the writers try to show Anupama as tensed and worried about history repeating itself while she literally pleaded to Prem's family to accept Rahi as their "daughter". See what the writers/makers do? They treat audiences like rats - throw a treat then trap them in a cage.
I'd say watch Pushpa Impossible on Sab tv. It may seem a little cringe or over the top but it actually has good writing and character developments. Not much to make you pull your hair out. The MC actually separates from her abusive husband, raises her kids on her own, fights society, completes education, doesn't cry like a cringe cat, and is able to hold up a job/business and gets promoted as well. Her daughter is shown to become more sensible than all of Anupama's kids combined (how many does she even have now? like a dozen?). I honestly enjoy her monologues and speeches the most - she's not a crybaby at all. She has a fiery fiesty attitude and actually learns to speak English like a normal person instead of the horrendous "soori".
