I do not agree with Gaj loved her – I remember the scene with Gaj and Kalika outside the court room. Kalika never touched his feet or hugged him. Only now we see hugs at the wedding. I think she was brought by him because she was Shyma's child but she was also an illegitimate child – link to a heartless man who dumped Shyma. If he loved her so much she wouldn't have been such an issue with his wife. He brought her up with hatred. I cannot imagine how she would have felt at an early age when he told her about her history.
Remember the scene with Narpat at the kitchen where she was trying to do everything herself. She hated any affection – he was a stranger and old man calling her child and she basically told him off. She should have been accustomed to that if Gaj showed her affection.
I have always thought that Kalika would have been better off alone than being raised by Gaj. I am sure she was brought up to be an instrument of revenge by Gaj. Even working as a lawyer she would have seen day-in-day out cases that reinforce her hatred for men. Even some of those cases the men may not have been at fault. Kalika would not see this.
I have always believed that Samar, Shubdra and Ambika anger was justified. But time usually heals wounds and pain becomes bearable with time. Saloni gave them no time before Kalika was thrust at them. However, Saloni got punished for her action – all the anger her family vented or her, she deserved. True, they not perfect but who is. Yes, saloni is not perfect despite popular belief. That's why everybody is usually mad at her. Her decision to dump Nahar for Brijesh's child. She paid for that as well. Though her actions were for a noble cause it did not come without sacrifices.
Yes her actions to destroy the family are deranged but watch at the world why does some one kidnap a man family when he was the one to do the crime. It's because that's the way to hurt some-one. Hurt loved ones is the cruelest way to punish any-one because now they will be on the person's conscious. I totally agree with you Shyma issue and Kalika has nothing to do with Saloni, Shubdra, Samar and Ambika. Has Kalika got any personal satisfaction from Narpat demise? No she has not.
I agree with you I don't know what would satisfy Kalika – the only thing to me is although the family is suffering no one has said bad words about Narpat. Saloni always praises her father – when she went to Kalika's office she defended her father. Samar pretends his father is dead. Ambika though going through a bad time pretends Narpat dees not exist. The contrast to Saloni and Shubdra's in-laws is also very noticeable. Brijesh and family is not thrashing Narpat or treating Saloni like dirt although her father is disgusting. The family has Saloni on a pedestal. The love and affection the family shows Saloni is fantastic. So, to Kalika how has Narpat defection hurt Saloni. The family was only divided because Saloni brought Kalika into the family. The only hostility we saw towards what Narpat did was where Padma treated Shubdra bad.
This is where I find Narpat actions disappointing after he saved Kalika's life the writers should have made him face Kalika. Again they reinforce our belief that he's a coward that runs away (when he dumps Shyma). In fact his actions of leaving Ambika and family to deal with the fall out of his actions were not justified.
Do you remember the girl that was begging on the street despite all that she is going through she is not overcome with hatred.
She blessed Nahar and Saloni after they drove off - she and Ginni is similar in nature. They have not let their circumstances override right and wrong. Or blamed everyone for their lot in life.
