Am I the only one who thinks Poonam is right?

1. Her resentment @ Jyoti for not turning up @ her wedding, and then being the reason it was almost held up, dishonoring the sentiments of her own family. I hold Jyoti completely @ fault on this for trying to force Sudha's attendence here.
   
2. The sari. Not only was she unaware of this really arcane custom, but she did compromise and offer Sushma an alternative, which the latter wasn't willing to take. Obviously, she was upset @ that.
3. On the day before Holi, when Poonam was learning to cook, Sushma needlessly passed a snide remark about her, provoking Padma to order her to finish the cooking.
4. On Holi itself, I do blame Poonam for bad-mouthing Sushma in front of her friends
5. After getting home, Poonam wasn't to blame - here is Jyoti being asked to do something bordering illegal, and so Poonam suggests that she collect the price for it, and at least get all the financial problems of the family out of the way. For Sushma, it's mocking their poverty, but most people would regard Poonam's suggestion as very practical
6. After being lectured by Jyoti, she reacted badly and wanted to storm out, until Padma stopped her. Yeah, here Poonam was being immature.
7. The cosmetics - fully agree w/ Poonam. She was home, and Sushma had no business using it w/o her permission - Padma was right, for the right reasons stated in front of Poonam, and the wrong reasons stated behind her back
8. When Dadi is preparing some snacks, Poonam recalls how it was @ home when her servants made them, and how she used to play w/ them. This was pretty innocuous, and wasn't offensive to anyone - she was just sharing some childhood memories. Yet, Sushma chose to take offense here. No reason.
9. The questions she asked Jyoti in wake of her divorce hearing were perfectly reasonable. Jyoti left so many unanswered questions that in public, her relatives would be @ a loss to defend her, given what's available for the public to conclude.
10. Poonam decides not to attend a friends b'day to avoid the embarrassment of both questions about Jyoti that may arise, as well as Sushma's condition. For being this thoughtful, she is lectured by Jyoti, and sent there notwithstanding w/ Deepu
11. They have a nice evening, where no questions about Jyoti come up, since nobody there reads the paper, and her dear hubby is bitching about it that her friends don't read papers. Hey, Deepu, thanks to them being hooked on playstations, you didn't need to be embarrassed.
    

She is practical than any1 in the sharmas. But her choice of words don't sound pleasing at all. The sharmas can't handle her attitude especially KK n jyoti coz they r pepl built of mahan adarsh n usool – the 2 sacrificing philosophers of the sharma parivaar… LOL!😆🤣

Dadi can't stand her as her traditional attitude can't match poonam's modern attitude. Sandeep… I have no idea! Padma…she's madly in luv with her DIL. Sushi…poor girl finding it too difficult 2 adjust with her so-called bhabi. 😕

I think this family NEEDS someone like her who will call spade a spade rather than butter Jyoti up.

I loved the way she showed the debt guy the door. It was awesome to see Jyoti's face. Someone was right there snatching her 'greatness' away. Poor Jyoti. She was saved from some torture and THAT would be sheer torture for Jyoti. 🤢

I also love the way she rubs Sushma on the wrong side. Sushma is a ridiculous idiot with a pea sized brain. I am glad someone shows her that she is nothing but &%&^.

I like this Poonam. She is a perfect mirror who shows the Sharmas what they really look like to society!
