Sumitra in fact is quite a weak character who is surrounded by strong characters - mother-in-law, husband and son. She cannot control her mother-in-law and husband. So it is now the son who was not previously under her control, but is listening to her now in some ways because he is immersed in all these guilt feelings.
Exactly what i explained in a post analyzing Sumitra
once more agree entirely
i had said that with 2 strong persons neutralized [ Dadisa mellowed with age and strong headed Jagdish is dealing with his guilt] Sumitra wants to rule
Even when Jagya marries Ganga , Sumitra will ill treat her
The Anandi saasra excuse is a load of hooey , its not about Anandi's happiness or son's happiness at all , it is about Sumitra's happiness
And social snobbery is one of the criterias of her happiness
Ruthlessly using the son's guilt she wants to use him as a tool to get what she wants ...the Shekhars pleased and their virgin , well settled daughter as a bahu for that girl has projected falsely that she will respect Sumitra's queendom .
The girl intends to make none queen but play that role herself , see how she told Jagya to get ready in just 5 minutes for the engagement , it was laughed at by the insensitive elders as a lovable wifely trait
Does Maturity make one so insensitive or does the eye of experience makes u fine tuned to these finer points
Sumitra laughed so lovingly at this display off bossiness by future bahu , the first thing that rude girl will do after entering that house is shake the legs of the throne on which Sumitra sits and topple her .
