You know what astounded me
the fact that Mahi , a FAMILY MEMBER skipped the engagement just like that with a shrug , a simple 'sorry guys' and walked off with bags at the last minute .
No ' Shiv's saasra' arguments were made by the Shekhars with bulging eyes
no guilt trips were laid on him
mom was cursorily irritated thats it .
Even unreasonable Ira did not mind as her darling daughter's sagaai was being missed and did NOT embark on a miffed lecture
Rather
Daddu understood !
It seems even Alok had missed Minu's wedding
But
Jagdish who is a doctor and very very busy
who had intimated much beforehand
who is even more grown up than Mahi
had no say in the date of his engagement
was given lectures upon lectures of 'Anandi's sasra' by Sumitra
was forced to give up a commitment he had intimated them about much beforehand
was forced to endure guilt trips
in fact
was so coerced and bullied that an event of joy became an issue making event .
So
r Alok and Mahi's commitments more important as they are in official capacity
is the 'saasra' argument only apllicable to a daughter's saasra not the male's
in what way does a grown up professional like Jagdish who has more life experience than a youngster like Mahi lose the right to make his own decisions
does coming back to the roots and family mean allowing family to bully u in every damn issue with manipulative arguments made by the whole lot .
Jagya should have done what Mahi did . Waked off at last minute with a bag with a shrug and sorry .
