Two other points struck me. J agreed to marry to please his family. He had done badly by them and he needed to give them happiness. Let us assume his family would have been thrilled to see him married -- so delusional are they that theydon't see that he is feeling suffocated, they don't see that he is completely miserable. He in turn keeps says he is doing all this as an obligation. But what about the girl? No girl, not even saanchi, deserves to be trapped in a fake marriage because the husband is discharging an obligation.
Second point: Jagya's family tells him if he doesn't agree to the Sa proposal, Anandi will suffer. But if she did suffer because he said no, it would have been just for a while because the proposal did not even go through. On the other hand, marriage would have meant A being stuck in a situation where the ex-husband is a constant presence in the house. And given A's habit of saying J this and J that she would have been constantly pitted against Sa who would resent her bhabhi knowing so much personal stuff about her husband.Which is more awkward? J saying no to sa rishta or co-habiting with A as her nanand's husband? How did J not think about all this. But who thinks in any serial?If people did think, they would know that no district collector will be allowed to stay in his personal house. The DC's official bungalow serves also as his after-hours office. Throngs of people come to meet him there. He will need to be accessible 24 into seven to his PA and other officers like deputy collector and Block Development Officers. Because managing a district is a nerve-wracking job requiring full attention.But cares for details?
