I am very disappointed at the way the story is going on post her divorce.

I expected to see Anandi rebuilding her life in the way she wanted.

Wish they had dedicated a few epsiodes to Anandi rebuilding her life and carving an identity for herself beyond the confines of Jaitsar and Haweli.

I really wish they have shown Anandi post her divorce along with being sarpanch, engaging in full time social work joining an NGO or starting one and travelling a lot meeting people in the process and see for herself how people react to her and percieve her.

All this travelling and meeting people including men would have mdae her see for herself how to differently people percieve her.All these would have been a morale boosting experiences and would have helped her rebuild her self esteem also.Yes she herself would have realised that she is an attractive woman also.

They could have had J and A confrontations at this time.Have Anandi tell J that she wouldn't take him back even if he is the last man standing.At least that would have brought the closure to A and J relationship.

They could ahve brought in the Character of Shiv at this point when she was regaining her self esteem and become more confident about herself and more importantly she would have been over her divorce and gotten over Jagya.At this stage of her life she would have met him as his equal in every aspect and if she liked him enough she would have agreed to marry him out of her own free will.

But unfortunately we did not get to see it.It is still DS controlling her life and trying to shape it according what she thinks is good for A.

We have Anandi taking care of Jaitsar and living in Haweli without her ever realising her full potential.Now we have Shiv coming into the story so soon into the story even before her divorce is finalised and her being pushed into a relationship by DS.To be fair he has seen her for the kind of person that she is and truly admires her very much we also have to keep in mind that he is the first man to tell her how beautiful and capable woman she is.Should she be expected to fall for the first man who said nice things to her?Agreed he has done more than just saying a few nice things to her but is it enough for her to fall for him?

Why is she not being given time and space to form her relationship with Shiv out of her own will?

To top it all why do they have to bring in the resistance to the relationship in the form of two unreasonable women?

How fair is to expect her to embrace her new relationship with now J hovering around to extract a revenge against her?

To me it seems like Anandi's life is all about becoming a bahu from beti and from beti to bahu.I wish they would show that there is more to Anandi then just ANSH post her divorce to J and marriage to S.

I agree with most of ur points Apy.Just one thing that I dont mind Shiv's involvement in A's growth. I hate how her life ...her emotions...her existence everything is still so closely linked to Jagiya.And to add to that now she has to prove herself to that stupid sister and CM of Shiv too. 😡 Why cant we have Anandi doing something more with her life?Something on the career front.Why she has to always prove herself as the ideal beti or bahu? AnSh was surely introduced to bring A into a new light...so that we can see the real contrast between JaAn and AnSh.Where J always wanted her to remain below him in every matter S would suport and motivate her.

But I am so disappointed to see A still entangled in this 'proving herself a good bahu' thing.I think AnSh had surely been the beginning of a new Anandi but with the introduction of Shiv's family and J's revenge drama its actually moving towards soemthing else only.

I think A's career and further studies track needs to be revived.I really hope cvs concentrate on such substantial things more than stupid sister manaoing thing.

aparnauma,

Really admire your post.. You have very well brought out what many of us feel here very passionately...

I really wish the writer of this serial comes online for a chat 😕 to understand Anandi's portrayal post divorce..

Given her family circumstances, again I am emphasizing whether Singhs and her parents here, have they really understood her aspirations? All of them are only hell bent on her getting a life partner that seems to be their ultimate goal, but they do not realize that she requires the time and space to grow as an individual and excel in her career choice she makes.. But, again, what does Anandi want? If you remember the conversations that she had with Shiv post rokha, she seems to be wedded to Jaitsar and does not want to come out of that place either physically or emotionally??. I am not finding fault with Anandi here, but Anandi with her education and whatever little exposure she had regarding administration could have made the effort to explore further career and educational choices Somewhere, she feels highly obliged that she needs to take care of Singhs now that J is disowned by them. She feels that as daughter to them it is her bounden duty to serve them..These emotional ties have literally tied her to Jaitsar and brought her to this present situation.. I do not know whether B or DS encouraged her to move out of Jaitsar so I cannot comment on that..

Unless and until she is convinced that she needs to move on from everything in Jaitsar, I do not foresee any change in the life of Anandi

@ Mallika - Even I agree that I would like to see Shiv have a part in the growth of A.Shiv is very worthy enough to be her husband for this very reason because he considers her as equal.

It just that if they delayed S' s entry into the story Anandi would have started on that journey on her own and Shiv would have gladly joined her on that journey and Anandi would n't have shown so much resistance.

It would have been more realistic too.I liked the fact that the CVs showed her moving out of relationship that has died with the help of her in laws.But how many of them meet their knight in shining armour straight away?

So many women continue to stay in a dead relationship or abusive relationships just because they feel that they have no where else to go not just n rural areas even in urban settings.They do not have the courage to move out.If they had dedicated a few episodes before Shiv's entry for this purpose it would have sent a positive message.

I feel that the CVs could have utilised this to show that women could move out of a bad relationship and make a life for themselves even if it is in a village.

@umam

You are right.Neither her parents or in laws actually given a thought as to what would have made A happy.Only Bhairon Singh could connect with her and he was silenced by DS.

About her saying that she would have stayed single - I would say it could be her reaction to the way she was being bull dozed into that marriage. I don't think she has had enough time to think about what she would do post her divorce.

Wonderful post and to tell you the truth, exactly what the cvs need to concentrate on...I am also a little upset about the current track, where only thing which seemed like important is marriage...Yeah, i understand that the village people think that the marriage is the only thing which is important in one's life, and dadisa and her family did a wonderful job showing the world how they could support their DIL, taking the side of truth, still now that they have showed the bal vivah concept as a bad one, the Cvs should have concentrated on another issue and that is Anandi's childhood passion of learning...They should show some inspirational story from here, rather than the family drama, which will give inspiration to many women in Anandi's place...

I am currently seeing a marathi serial uncha maza zoka, which is the real story of Ramabai Ranade, if you search in wikepidea, who was a social activist in puna and mumbai...But the main speciality of this serial is her husbands support and his hard work to educate her and make her what she was...She was also a women who worked against child marriages, for the widows as well as womens welfare and there are lots of institutions she started herself for the same with her husband as her inspiration...I would have loved to see something similar in this serial, where instead of Jagya and CM and other negative characters, they concentrate on Anandi's life and Shiv supporting her without any ego issue unlike Jagya, to reach her goals and achieve success...That will not only give a wonderful message to the society, but also show how a good life partner can help his spouse...
They can give a inspirational message to the people here and show the parents of the girls, who marry their daughters at so young age, what potentials their daughter has in her...They can give them the message about what their daughter can do, if they are allowed to study, instead of marrying them at young age...Anandi who loved to study, against all odds did so much for the society, then they need to make people think what their daughters can do...Making her study further and do something for the society, will give a wonderful message to the people, instead of this saas bahu saga...I just feel that they can show so much more than they are, still ruining the show with too much saas bahu saga or negativity...It will also show people that marriage is not just the only thing needed in life to be happy,but a person can stay happy just by doing what he enjoys most as well ...by seeing the happiness on others, by helping them, by changing their life...Every thing doesn't revolves around marriage now a days...! Life is such a wonderful gift of God and they should show how one can use their life to make the most of it...It's time they should show Anandi live life her way, think about the future, study, do what she likes most, help and see that her life is a wonderful gift given by her parents and God and she needs to rise above all and live happily...

@aparna Very well put!!!

Very thoughtful!

But this is an Indian show! Yes A could have well moved on without a certain Shiv in her life...but Indian movies and shows can't survive without a love story...hence the 'Shiv'...but thats possibly what BV wants to show...a woman is considered so incomplete without a husband...

I am also a bit disappointed with the track...Its taking away the novelty from BV...a typical saas bahu drama...when every now and then A has to prove that she is quite worthy of being Shiv's wife...We know she is...He knows she is...so why this proving???

And my point is where is the 'social work' gone all of a sudden??? All we now see is Jagya'a torture on himself...Is that the reason BV was made in the first place???

And if they still want to show the contrast between Bal vivah and Adult marriage, there are lots of avenues left to be treaded upon...

But despite of all this I still hope that along with Jagya, the BV CVs will also get redeemed and give us something real...

even though i regard balika vadhu as a breather from the relentless and mindless saas bahu dramas, i must say i too am disappointed with the way anandi's CH is shaping up post divorse.

balika vadhu remains one of the most progressive dramas on indian telly ,which has successfully addressed many ills and challenged many beliefs. but is now sadly failing in case of anandi.

i agree people have flash backs and it is not easy to forget someone who was once dear to you ... but hey jagiya was evil and how can oen not remember the tortures? the bhabhoot thing!?

IMO we are certainly going over the top with the FBs thing. and what was the need to show anandi all worked up on seeing jagiya " jagiya engagement pe aaye the au rmujhse mile bhi nahi "

i mean now hey have to show anandi as a brain dead heroin of indian soap or what? what did she expect ? he wud come and congratulate her!!!??

needless to say i also hate the fact that anandi deliberatel chhoses to ignore the man who is beign nice ,respectful adn upportive towards her and is seen fixatd on the looser "husband". jagiya.

very disappointed CVS. they shoudl have set the example that women have the will and capability to start over lekn yaahn to pati parmeshavar hi dikhaya jaa raha hai.

==============================================================================

Aparna.,

You had me thinking once again with your great post.

Would just like to say on your above point in bold...That's what is 4 months for...

She is still not in Love with Shiv and indeed has not fallen for the first guy who said good things to her...about herself.

These 4 months are for giving her the much required space and time to realise his persistence, patience and sincerity of his love towards her. And I feel this time would be more than enough even for a girl like Anandi to recognise Shiv as her true soulmate.

I agree, CV's should have shown a more independent A finally succumbing to love etc., after a brief hiatus of improving her self esteem, career...but we will also have to bear in mind., that the grit, independence and will power are intrinsic characteristics of Anandi, which are trampled by a man i.e., J. After the break in the relationship with J, she had indeed moved on and proved what all she is capable of achieving ( the award from Chief Min. is itself an achievement ) with these intrinsic qualities of hers., but on an emotional as well as soulful level, she has become extremely vulnerable., almost dead.

So the logic of Cv's might be that all the characteristics which have gone into hiding or so to say died b'coz of a man are brought alive once again by a man like Shiv.

Yes., being a soap, there is this silly family drama pertaining to CM and Sis, but in a way, as we all know., this is only going to help A realise how important Shiv has become in her life and would not want to lose him at any cost., be it for CM or Sis or finally J. Infact subconsciously she had already realised this., otherwise she would not have been scared of an AANDHI in the last episode...even after seeing cool reactions from Shiv as well as other family members EXCEPT CM.

And in embracing the relationship with Shiv with J hovering over, I would say, this will only showcase her strong will and sincerity of respect as well as love ( going forward ) that she feels for Shiv.

As per growth that we all wish to see for Anandi career wise., it will be definitely on the cards., afterall the show has to run for atleast another 1000 episodes...there's no hurry...😉😆

I agree with above and she is also being brought out of her emotional frozen state slowly and gradually by Shiv who is also giving good amount of space to her to heal. At first she has to be made to realise that she is beautiful and modern as she is since her self confidence as a woman is shattered by jagyas infidelity. I think this is equally required which cvs are showing. Also with this the confidence to go out of the comfort zone of jaitsar and haveli will also come and hopefully they will show her pursuing her interests and further education.
