Isn't he guilty of cheating Sanchi?😕 I know - many will be shocked to hear it but there are few facts to be considered -
Jagdish had no feelings - be it pity, concern, friendship, love, - for Sanchi. He was only getting married to Sanchi to keep his family happy and more importantly Anandi's married life happy.
Those who think that Jagdish has done "mahan" work by getting ready to marry Sanchi then please do consider one situation -
if you come to know that your spouse has not married you because he/she likes you or has any feelings for you but only for the betterment of life of ex-lover/spouse and family happiness, how would you react? Would you embrace your spouse for being so "mahaan"?
Even if Sanchi would not have done that dramabaazi and had remained in her true bratty self, Jagdish could never have loved her. He would have always loved Ganga and would only fake his feelings towards Sanchi. Wasn't it a kind of cheating?
Jagdish's attempts to make the relationship work with Sanchi would have been praiseworthy if he would have done that out of feelings for Sanchi - it could be pity, love, concern or anything else but reason should have been Sanchi. But whatever J did was only to keep his near ones happy and was not even bothered with Sanchi.
Sanchi had been fooling her family and Jagdish for her own ego to winover Jagdish. Jagdish on the other hand has also been fooling Sanchi and others - for his family and Anandi.
Sanchi has already paid her price and will pay more. Jagdish has to pay a price too.
It's an irony - J wanted to get married to Sanchi for sake of Anandi's and his family's well- being and now his actions are ruining A's life.
When I said he is not guilty in the present case - it was about the section under which the case is being filed - he is not guilty of abatement of suicide attempt.
What he did was morally wrong and I have already expressed my views about it in my various posts. I agree he was guilty of cheating Sanchi and her family. When someone agrees to marry - it is like agreeing to accept the rishta. He did not accept the rishta with Sanchi - he just accepted to get married for his family's (may be Anandi's) happiness but did he think about his would-be wife's happiness ever? Like your assessment that he had no feelings for Sanchi. He may be sacrificing his own happiness for his family's sake but why did not he thought that he is sacrificing even his would be wife's happiness - he had no right to sacrifice another person's happiness for the sake of his family. Greater wrong was done by him when even after realising(?) his love for Ganga he continued with this rishta - what he was thinking? He can marry someone for the sake of his family with no intention of loving/caring for her? So what Jagya did was not right - it is just that he is not guilty of abatement of suicide. He was morally wrong - but what he did was not against any law of the country - so he cannot be taken to court.
Similarly what Sanchi did (pretending to change, bribing the pandit, badmouthing the future in-laws and mocking their ways) was wrong morally - but even she did not do anything against the law of the land -except for the attempt to suicide. She must be tried in court of law for this offence, but what people are saying that her "truth" will come out in court etc. is nothing. Court does not consider gossiping as crime - a lot of daughters-in-law do the same thing even though in front of their in-laws they pretend to be caring and respecting them. It is just that Sanchi's character was bad right from the start (when she entered the show) with no justification ever shown why she is like this - so nobody can have any sympathy towards her.
