Widow remarriage and especially with an additional responsibility is worth the message. But the way it happened, did not seem natural or real at all. It was not only too fast, too soon but also IMPOSSIBLE to ever happen in real life with Suguna's attitude and behavior towards Shyam. Simply no reason to fall in love with a Girl who is always bitter and rude when opens her mouth.
One of my friends was widowed after 4 months of her marriage. Two months after the husband's death she found out her pregnancy. Everyone (Friends, family, relatives) shocked at her fate tried to help her and family the best they could. However, one of the friends of the husband was extra helpful and nice to family. He maintained the relationship with family for 2 years. Helping them in each way he could. Became very close to everyone in family. After about 2 years, he told his family and her family that he wished to marry her. Her family of course was very happy. My friend did not really love him but did respect him as a very good human being. She also knew that she needed a life time friend to move on and agreed. A mature practical decision with the thought that we get married first then fall in love unlike westerns fall in love and then get married.
But his parents said 'NO'. Big NO, not because she was widow, because she had a child. He conveyed his message politely and firmly: I would never go against your wish. I will not marry her if you decide not to bless us. But if I EVER marry, I will ONLY marry her. End of discussion. The parents agreed after a year once they realized that he did mean every word he said. The parents excuse/explanation for agreeing to the marriage was that "we don't want to see him alone for the rest of his life".
They are happily married now. I asked her husband what did he like so much about her to go against his family. And he answer was, I quote: "well I am not crazy about her, I don't feel like going on rooftop and yelling that I am in love. But I simply like everything about her. I can not think of anything that I don't like about her. May be she is just an ordinary girl.. magar mujhe BAHUT achchi lagti hai.., her looks, simplicity, homely and family oriented nature, calm and pleasant attitude.. everything… just everything.. "
