"But criticizing a character because you don't see their point is not fair, don't you agree?"
This can be applied to all your criticism of Anandi & here Shiv too.
If I remember correctly, Anandi was criticized for her sweet response to Sanchi.- she cant stand up for herself, she is too docile, she doesn't have self respect, etc. Now suddenly she has become Mature? In this argument, I think this is your first appreciation of Anandi, congrats π
On your arguement - Well it has never been shown that Shiv has agreed to that Sanchi will choose his bride. Sanchi just sang about it herself, I want someone like this for my bhabhi, etc.
She is an adult woman of over 18 years, not a 5 year old kid who can't comprehend that her brother has fallen in love. He didn't tell her probably bcoz it didn't occur to him that its so important to tell her first. That again points out that he was never in agreement that she would choose his bride, if he was, he would have considered it important & called her.
And she was okay with Ashima. So what's exactly left of her point? That her ego wasn't assuaged?
As for how exactly he dealt with Sanchi, well a lot of people here have given credible argument & I agree & have nothing to add.

Why in the first place shiv gave her the right to choose his bride?
Second point, why didn't he tell her that he chose his own bride? It was only after the sagai was fixed that her piece-of-old-furniture kind of mother (as some member called her) told her over the phone. π
I think it was unfair to the teenager, if you understand their psychology.
Now we are not emphasizing here that shiv should break the rishta for the sake of his childish sister. The issue was how he dealt with the whole situation. See, how calmly anandi had behaved. That is called maturity.
