Not happy with nani ma today!!!

I was loving today's episode when they showed a lovely and funny scene between Prachin, Gyan, Pashu and Malti but then nani ma started with her nitpicking. Earlier it was just annoying but now to me it feels like she is going behind Nitika's back and instigating Pitaji against her choice to work outside of house. I hated it when she told Chedi that you have brought in a son instead of bahu...if she meant it in a good way that would have been so nice but she was bitter about it. I don't understand what's so wrong in having a working bahu in the house in today's modern world. Nani ma seems to be seeing turmoil in future due to this but why is she destroying the happy present. When things go out of hand, family knows how to handle it and they have done it in the past so many times.

Also, nani ma better know that before Toasty came in the house, all 5 of his grand-sons used to take turn in cooking, cleaning and laundry in the house. What happened to their manhood then? What's with the crap, "jiska kaam usi ko saajhe". I understand Nitika has to take time out in the morning or evening to help Toasty with at least one of the meals for the day but at the same time I love how Ved is being so considerate and supportive of his wife and Toasty as well that he is willing to go an extra step to help Toasty with some of the home chores.

I think this family is better off without nani ma. They are so sweet and considerate towards each other. There is a strong bond and no one has ever spoken ill of one family member to other (except that one time when there was feud between Tej and Pashu but that time also love was always intact). This is the reason we didn't want Malti's mom to come in C-house.

so true. but i thought at times like this, pitaji or dadaji should explain them about how the family members are and how they have dealt with so much before that these little things will not come in between them. Even pitaji said the same thing, that you wont feel bad cuz you are asking but what if someone else feels bad but toasty managed the situation. so here of pitaji instead of being instigated, used his mind to explain things then there would be no issue. communication is the biggest thing here.

Pujli: I agree that Pitaji cannot be instigated easily and he did try to defend his family especially Toasty but he was left having second thoughts...you know seed of doubt has been planted...i don't like such things.

In my opinion, pitaji should get the entire family together and then ask everyone if they have any problem with Nitika going out to work or if they foresee any trouble because of her job in future. Then he should ask Nitika how she can try and maintain good balance between job and home chores. I believe Nitika can help Toasty either in the morning before leaving or otherwise in the evening with the dinner.

I also thought Toasty will end up drinking the kada but she didn't. However she was too slow in thinking and discarding that kada and lol look at how she was throwing it from such height into the sink...koi na dekh raha ho toh bhi dekh le :))

I predicted this beforehand that this will be the track they will focus upon. I am pretty sure that nitika and toasty will be on opposite sides soon when nitika feels toasty gets more importance when she is the elder bahu...

her job will be the starting point

Yes, this would have been a very ripe track if it was any other show but don't we have different sort of expectations from SBS?

Remember when Malti bhabhi was new in the house and was having doubts about her position among family members, Toasty voluntarily left to her mother's place for a week so C-parivar could get used to Malti bhabhi.

Moreover, Nitika and Toasty are childhood friends and Nitika has seen Toasty's struggle in C-house to reach her current position. I highly doubt she will worry about Toasty getting more attention than her.

Nani Ma is old school

She has a good heart and means well but you cant always teach an old person new ways of thinking

She comes from the village life where work is very gender specific...besides Toasty "love" to be a housewife...so she should take that responsibility

I kinda like Nani Ma cause she is showing that Toasty does not know best and there are certain traditions one such follow (Sorry but I have never been able to stand Toasty and her superficial mushroom induced cheeriness)

Rest is up to Chedi to let Nani Ma know there is a certain way of life in the family before she came...but he is a bit scared of her and they need her...so



So will there be some kind of time leap?

I agree with you @abc113, Nani ma kuch zyaada hi kar rahi I feel. If she wants to state her concern, thats fine but she was basically trying to brainwashed Pitaji into thinking there would be problems in the future. Bahuon ke samne voh aisa bhardaav kar rahi thi Jaise usko koi problem nahin aur phir once she's gotten pitaji alone to talk to, she starts talking about it...almost as if she wants Chedi to be the one to stop Nitika from going to work. if she was concerned about how the other bahus felt/whether or they would have a problem later on, ahe should have talked directly to them. She doesn't even know Toasty and Malti's personalities and that they are probably the most flexible bahus and won't have any such bitter feelings towards Nitika. More than her concern, its obvious that this entire time its been bothering her that Nitika isn't sitting at home focusing only on housework.

They need something to go ahead with the track. A serial cannot survive without friction or drama.

at Tejy and abc113: You are right. This way she has one more person to bully if Nitika is also home. I know she is not a negative character but she she is not positive either. its her daughters sons and bahus. she should be very affectionate towards them and try to teach them everything by love. she is lucky to have bahus who are very loving abd caring and more importantly they understand each other very well. we have old grandparents too who are old school but not like this.

Toasty is not perfect but she definitely is special. It is impossible to ignore all that she has done for C-parivar. She didn't ever get success in anything in one go, she had to struggle and suffer but ultimately with her determination and patience she reached her aim and made others happy. So, I disagree with you that nani ma is showing that Toasty doesn't know the best. I am sure you will agree that nani ma doesn't know the best either and is not perfect herself so I am definitely not going to use nani ma's judgement in making analysis of Toasty's character.

Once nani ma gets to know what all this family has gone through and how they have reached to this level of comfort and understanding in the C-house, I am sure her jaw will drop at knowing the maturity with which Toasty has led her way through crisis after crisis.

Sorry, just the way you have never been able to stand Toasty, I have always appreciated her efforts, she definitely is special.

I have also wondered about time leap, let's see how they'll plan out 9 months of pregnancy and another year of nani ma staying back to take care of the newborn.
