From the time Gayatri's blind love for Akash track has started, I am always looking for Radha and her actions and reactions. Unfortunately Radha is never in focus though she also has same role like Gayatri towards her son/sons.

She made a first mistake of kidnapping Akash and but later why she is not showing any concern towards him? When Gayatri was able to control Yash with a look or word, Radha is not that impactful with Akash because she is the trobule maker for him.

Initially when she was describing her story to Aarati, she told though she exchanged the babies, she has given lots of love to Akash and tried to bring him up as best as she can. Even Gayatri acknowledged it to Radha saying no mother can do any thing wrong to her kids. If that is the case where she truely has motherly feelings towards Akash then she cannot sit cool and run behind SP and PV with SP.

My biggest question is why Radha is not trying to talk to Akash? Out of all the people in SM, she is close to his heart for 30 years and she will surely have that kind of influence on him. She is supposed to be on Akash's side of the fence where as she is sitting along with her biological son and enjoying her new found beta love.

I feel she has to focus on Akash and try to understand his pain and agony and try to help redeem him rather than sitting next to Yash and family. Ideally it is not Yash but it should be Radha who has to take lead in pacifying Akash and bring him back into family.

This is why I feel she is an opportunist. At the first opportunity, she made her son grow up properly and now also he is not bothered to help Akash.

I do agree. Somehow the link between Ma and son is missing...r v suppose to think that akash is not on talking terms with his ma for the betrayal and Ma is keeping the distance as she is guilty...

Good one dear👏

I m not sure if Radha can b called an opportunitst here but she just comes across as a normal human who mayb wants to see a marital bliss in her life too at some point of time 🤔... she wears sindoor even today and noone really asked her why but it does show her inside desire to look as a married woman 😉 .. So what I feel is Radha might not really want to take anyone's place on her own but if she is asked by someone she dont mind it either ... Like when Yash asked her to stay in this house only , she never opposed it but quietly accepts it with a hope of getting some respect and acceptance from this family one day ...

So it wont b wrong to say that as a woman she might b craving for some marital bliss and respect in her life too after 30 yrs of lonely struggle 🤔...

She is not telling anything to AKash because she is scared of loosing out on majority who r on this side of the fence with Yash ... Mayb in a way she is selfish ... 🤔

Jyothi, I have never noticed sindhoor. Good point. Will check tonight.
I agree that she is passively accepting/endorsing things - but she is endorsing those things which are good for her Like you mentioned selfish could be more right word than opportunist.

But I am not able to come to terms that instead of focusing on Akash she is focusing on SP. I feel always a woman is mother first and then come all other relations.

Apoorva, good question.


I think a few of us felt the same from day one of Radha's entry into SM and now pretty much all of us feel that something is really amiss between Radha and Akash although I am not sure an opportunist would be the right word to use. It maybe, but I would like to wait and see where this is all going. 😆


The argument that she lacks courage or she may feel that she has lost any rights to reprimand Akash or show him the right way, does not sell anymore according to me. A mother should be able to over come this lack of courage or fear and be able to put her son's betterment at the forefront. We have seen Radha do that with Yash few times when she felt Gayatri was being unfair to Yash. In those instances she was thinking about Yash's betterment and that gave her the strength to overcome whatever guilt or fear she had regarding her role in SP's betrayal of Gayatri. But I still haven't seen her do that with Akash since they entered SM. If Akash being accepted into the Scindiya house is what she truly wants then she should be able to put aside her own emotional insecurities and reach out to Akash and get him to see other ways of doing things, even if it means he would have to face rejection from Akash. Akash is the son she raised. A parent should be able to do that.


I see a pattern in this track like I have seen in many of the other tracks by these CVs (in all their shows nit just PV). At first there is an anomaly in a character that we viewers are not really sure if it is an anomaly or not. Then as the track progresses this anomaly becomes more and more obvious which makes me as a viewer think that it was not something that was merely overlooked by the writers but it is something that the writers very consciously has incorporated into the behavior of the character. And that they have a reason for it and at some point as the track progresses this reason will come out and the character will have to face the repercussions of this anomaly.


So is the case with Radha. At first I wasn't sure what exactly is going on in her mind. I still am not sure. 😆But her not interacting with Akash is definitely a conscious effort on the writers part to bring about something bigger later on. I will not be surprised AT ALL, if Akash one of these days turned around and asks her if she is not responsible too for his plight. She ditched him for Yash as far as he can tell. So in a way I feel the writers are making sure that they leave the door open for her at some point having to take responsibility for her part in this mess.

I agree .. But Aakash was good towards Radha until Ishita took control on him . Akash in return since he walked into the mansion has built an ego to make anyone nauseous . Radha has been accused of being a gold digger by SP and will not try to help Aakash voluntarily because the family will surely paint her to be one then because Aakash's new title is " Mr Money" .Yes she is wrong in her doings with the babies but sacrificed a lot in doing so . Took a gamble and surprisingly was thanked and praised for her mistake by the one person who was taken advantage off" Gaitre" . We all know Gaitre was a tough one and hardly ever let anyone have the upper hand on her . So her forgiveness says a lot about Radha's character in her eyes . Having said that . Aakash has not once since that day he walked in the mansion address Radha as Ma unlike Yash did it publicly letting her know he respect her as his biological mother but his real mother will always be Gaitre. Right now Aakash is blinded by wealth only . Money is new to him and in turn feels he had been robbed and deprived of his rights..Meanwhile therapist Ishita is continuously giving him a daily dose of revenge ideas for her own selfish needs .Bua will always be Bua .. The family needs someone to guide and take responsibility of the household and Bua's sharp remarks will open many doors . They need two parents here . That's the way it has been and will have to be so in the future . Changing this erases all unity and Gaitre knew this and had all faith that Yash and Aarti will make the right decision on her responsibilities accordingly. It's a long rough road ahead but Yash and Aarti will pull it off because they travelled the road before and experience is the greatest teacher .

@angake, Thanks alot for explaining more clearly . I agree with you. Like you mentioned, CVs may send us an explanation for her behaviour later but at this point of time, its too much for me.
