Vidhi and Pankaj

Hello TAPD,

I knew that someday Pankaj would break down but not so soon. Pankaj should speak to his wife to address this issue. If he is so concerned, perhaps he should help his wife out. For example his son and daughter needed a helping hand for their project. Pankaj could have helped, it would ease the burden and stress on Vidhi's shoulder; he will have a chance to bond with his kids; and the sooner the projects finish then maybe he can spend the spare time bonding with his wife. Pankaj is frustrated, and he did not intend to hurt his wife. Who does not want to sit and have tea with their significant other, watch a movie, talk about their day and so on. I feel if Vidhi does spend time bonding with her spouse it can buffer her stress from managing all of this house work.

Vidhi is a lovely character. She is very caring and strong. She is key in keeping the family together and running. She is calm and wise. She understands that her mother-in-law lets out her frustration on her but does not necessarily want to hurt her. She wants to help her 2 sister-in-law's blend with the family and feel welcome. Whenever I saw her and Pankaj's interaction I assumed maybe she is scared of intimacy with her husband? As her character unfolded I realized that she strives to be the best mother/daughter-in-law/person she can be somewhere she sacrificed her husband because she knows that he is always going to be there. After Pankaj stormed away, I was touched by what Vidhi said. Her feelings, thoughts and experience are actually common. A lot of women can relate to that It could be trying to be the ideal daughter, mother, student, career woman, wife and etc. I really look forward to Vidhi and Pankaj sorting this misunderstanding. I also felt that with Aarti and Paridhi coming maybe Vidhi's shoulders will be lightened. I do not want to see Aarti and Paridhi's relationship sour. I hope all 3 can manage a way that they feel comfortable with and have time for themselves to do whatever they want.

I understand Scindya lifestyle is traditional, but come on why must Vidhi do everything. Why must the woman be left to domestic duties only. Is Paridhi not going to continue her RJ career? They can certainly can afford help with domestic tasks. They have many helping hands but how does Vidhi always end up doing everything? The Scindya family lifestyle is very culturally and socially specific. I am looking forward to seeing how Aarti and Paridhi adapt as well as bring positive change to the Scindya family and also influence Vidhi and Paridhi's relationship.

Best Regards,

Virgo
