Raj bhai the pure reason indira transformed into Hitler was the betrayal from her father. Now since the perfidious father is back we will see the Might Hitler soon. Rishi will be back, Hitler will be back, the audience will be back and the balance will be restored. 😉

JJkJ: We should not forget Indu is heavily challenged with moral dilemmas all the time. She had to agree to sell the house to save her husband. But where will her family go? Does merely thinking abt this makes her selfish and not love Rishi? there is a hiccup so Indu asks herself the question what she should do! Her family might have to live on the streets since she has no job and on the other hand refusing the kidnappers what they want cud be highly fatal to her husband's life. She is definitely challenged with a moral dilemma here no matter what you say.

But the audience shoot a fusillade of arrows at her because she apparently did not give Rishi the 1st preference here. Some of the IF members would like to call it Indira's 'mahanta'. It would have been highly inhuman of her if she did not even consider the possibility of what might befall her family if she sold their only possession. But she does give priority to Rishi. She was challenged with a dilemma like any other person and chose Rishi over her family. Yes it took her a few secs to get there but she did not treat Rishi like disposible trash and did not leave him there to die at the hands of his kidnappers.

Your words would have valid if Indira thought she has done wrong after signing the paper her father gave her or worse if she refused to sign it. 😊 The Indira u describe would not have gone to visit her husband after his phone call in an attempt to save him in utter desperation, or shouted at the insensitive woman. She did not even think twice when her boss fired her from the very job she needed to keep her family floating, the very family she supposedly keeps giving more priority over her husband! 😕

So why purposely omit all these cases where Indira displays her unbounded love for Rishi? Remember Indira kept supporting Rishi throughout the story esp when his family cursed him and their relationship. She always took his side and said he understood her like no one and wants to be with him even if her family does not approve(The shaadi track) Now thats unfair! 😆 keep an open mind dear... Love Ankita!

Patronizing aside, the anger and contempt at Indira is not leveled because she did/didn't agree to sell SN. You are absolutely right that this is a dilemma. And actually not selling SN would be the right decision. If CVs had decided to give Indira brains, she and Radhe, along with a competent police officer would have found a way to trick the kidnappers to release Rishi and not having to sell SN

And yes she went to meet Rishi at the cost of her job. That was human of her

But her inactions and obstructions far outweigh her actions. And most importantly, what led to her downfalls were her inactions when actions would not have cost her anything

Case and point - instead of finding the dump site the truck went to, she had the mental and emotional wherewithal to chase Sumer, wait patiently as he concludes his bribe transaction, take pictures, print flyers, distribute them. All of this right after she has seen her husband being thrown of a high storied building.

Would anyone imagine doing what she did, right after she witnessed murder of her husband. During situations such as this, people become superhuman because of the adrenaline rush, and intense fear of inaction. People snatch life from jaws of death. Yet we see Indira doing her usual, run-of-the-mill bhashan giri

Second example would be the morning after her niece's birth. Your husband is being tortured and most likely near death. You have seen one murder attempt on him. Fine - you prevented your brother being brought in for questioning the day his daughter was born. But considering who Munna is and his habits of getting drunk and disappearing, would not not have spent the night awake, making sure he does not disappear.

Absolutely horrendous was her dis-interested response to Sumer asking her where Munna was. That episode will go down in history of HD as the day old Indira died. Her whole conversation with Sumer was so unbelievable. She was taking him to task for daring to ask her about Munna. And her husband could be dead!

In these cases, time is of the essence. If the kidnappers don't kill Rishi, he could inadvertently die because of internal injuries sustained from constant beating. Infact, this is usually the cause of death.

So, downfall of Indira is because of huge gulf between how we as audience, would react to situation ...versus...how Indira reacted.

PS: And this is CVs fault because they needed to show a dominant Sumer, and that too in conflict with Indira. so Indira had to be brought down to bring Sumer up
