Ok, after Sandhya's return, we've seen the sisters all make the case to her that she needs to move on, and in their interpretation of moving on, she needs to re-marry.

Here are some of the things worth considering:
  1. Is marriage something Sandhya just has to do? Or does she have alternatives, like living alone in her baba's house, learning how to read & write standard (not Braille), then get a job and support herself on her own? Or even work in the palna-ghar that is going on in that home - helping Sakshi-di w/ the kids and getting a minimal income for herself that helps her eat? The house after all is in her name as well - no rent or mortgage!
  2. Aside from Neeraj, is it even likely that Sandhya can even find somebody who won't object to the fact that she was previously married? And in the process of explaining things, wouldn't she make it seem more gross, and in the process, paint herself pretty unfavorably?
  3. Is Sandhya justified @ all in bemoaning her having to return to her maayka?
  4. Are the sisters right in bringing up this question now? Are they justified on the grounds that they too have their own families to pay attention to, and can't indefinitely stay w/ Sandhya @ her father's home?
  5. Or should they have waited until Sandhya was back from Neeraj's place? After all, unless she marries him, she's not going to stay w/ Neeraj indefinitely!
  6. Should Neeraj first either find a job, or accept his inheritance from Dadaji's family b4 he decides to marry Sandhya?
The above questions are all factors worth considering while determining whether Neeraj & Sandhya should or shouldn't marry, and if they do, whether they should do it now or later.

What do you think? Weigh in!

I'm baaaaaaaack! 😉

And oh boy, what a development in RS. Wow! Loved it!

So back to your questions, Vrish.

What I found pretty weird regarding the Neeraj & Sandhya-relationship is that there are no signs of affection. Don't take me wrong, I know they love each other, but when I made the Neerdhya videos and watched the moments where Sandhya had the leftovers of his belongings, I would assume she would show more feelings towards him. Like a hug? 😳
On one hand, she's afraid of "who wants her" but she has feelings for him. Maybe she's afraid of expressing the latter because Neeraj's pretty much isn't doing much? 😆 Oi mundeya, get a grip, and take the first step! I think it's okay that her sisters wish her to get married, because Sandhya deserves to have a normal life instead of struggling alone. After all, they are her sisters and want her the best.

It is difficult to live alone without a spouse, but not impossible. I would prefer that she had an external support aside from her sisters, Neeraj. And by marrying him she would get encouraged that although you've previously been married, one can still marry again and live a happy life.

Again, it depends on the culture. Do people object the fact that a woman can marry second time? If yes, then it will be difficult - but Sandhya has something any becoming MIL would love to have a part of : Money and property. 😆

I would like Neeraj to work his way up alone with the only support from Sandhya. No need to to accept the his part of the inheritance from Dadaji's family.

Pink-Spy, welcome back! You can catch up on events to date from the story so far.

The money that Sandhya has - I think she's just holding it captive so that the Jagirdars can't abuse it to go free and torment her and their other victims. She didn't do all that to embezzle her former sasural: she's already (presumably) promised DK half of it. If the other Jagirdars reform, they'll get their money back as well - Sandhya doesn't want to keep it. As for her father's property, they are in all sisters' names. Already, Abha & Rohit were demanding it, but Shradhya refused. I'd hate for any MIL of Sandhya to demand it. And in any case, Neeraj's parents are both deceased, and it's his dadaji's family, w/ its unknown members, who Sandhya would have to deal w/ if she moves there after marrying Neeraj. And I think it's safe to say that Neeraj won't appreciate his 'new family' having a say in his relationship w/ someone he's known for over a year now.

Women can definitely marry a 2nd time - and nowadays, it's more common in India as well. That wasn't the purpose of my question. What I meant was that when anyone gets married a 2nd time, the circumstances of their first marriage are typically described, and although Sandhya was not @ fault, question is whether potential suitors would see it the way Savita does. Especially if they describe that her previous marriage was to a eunuch, and therefore technically a non-marriage. That was sort of what I had in mind.

Anyway, thanks for your observations 👏

If Sandhya and Neeraj really love eachother they should get married but not just for the sake of getting married. So in this case I would say remarriage of Sandhya should be done.
About now..I think Sandhya wants to close the chapter of Jagirdars fully like they getting lifelong sentence and then she might be able to think about second marriage. In the meantime she and Neeraj will bond so the decision will be made easier.
The sisters shouldnot pressurize Sandhya much on getting married again. She needs time to recover from the pain which she got at her former sasuraal and the decision of remarriage should be made by Sandhya only not by her sisters but its good that they will support her.
Another thing..I am not liking Neerjas new family so I hope they wont give Sandhya or Neeraj more pain as they already got more than enough pain from Jagirdars.

^^^ I agree w/ this, which is why I'm surprised that the majority of those who polled above don't believe in a cooling-off period!

Looking @ the recent KMH2 promos, I think that they are better off having Neerdhya marrying soon, and then centering the story over their marriage, like Arjuhi. Also have side plots, like Anmol-Anjali, resolve Shradhya's issues, maybe have Shreya pregnant, and so on. Sorta like when Jyoti & Pankaj were married, the marriage was stable for a long while while the story centered around Sudha & Sushma. Similarly, put Neerdhya in a stable marriage, and have other side plots to keep it interesting.
