Tulsi was a homemaker and stuck to being one even when she solved problems or killed her son who just so happened to be a drug lord also. Her character never deviates from being who she is and not once is she shown as being ashamed of being a homemaker or thinking her independence and individuality is dependent on her earning her own money.
Here this woman is sometimes a wannabe dancer, then she’s a masterchef later becomes a reality show dancing star. It’s like she’s all over the place. Her first husband cheats on her, she makes the second one miserable by not committing to him fully and has other random men just pop up and fall in love with her out of nowhere who also disappear from the show overnight.
Tulsi never had to be shown as someone unsure of her identity and worse ashamed of her role as a homemaker to become iconic. Even when we had Anupam and that character played by Parmeet Sethi pop up, they didn’t just fall in love with Tulsi randomly to show her as some kind of incredible woman. She didn’t need other characters validating her to prop her up be it as a desirable woman or a righteous person.
From the little glimpses of Anupama that appear on feeds on Instagram or Twitter, you either believe she’s a goddess who does no wrong or you’re evil. There’s just no in-between. And anyone against her has to also be loud, OTT and just behave as monstrously as possible. Just like Anupama herself.
Payal and Tulsi sold their tensed relationship even as Samdhaans without a single one of them ever having to raise their voice. The tension was palpable and so intense, yet pulled off with such class and subtlety.
Even Kyunki’s villains are more classy and subtle than the actual heroine of Anupama!
