Totally, his embarrassed when the doctor was disparaging towards Gopi at Mani's bedside, you could see his face, he doesn't want to be associated with an illiterate wife, when the tutor came he was proud that she wanted to learn but when the tutor left with that damning report that Gopi was incapable of learning, he thought it's all just a waste of time, we will all just be embarrassed for nothing, as people will carry on talking about us and she will still be the same Gawar.
I think the whole thing is very trying for Aham, having discovered she is an illiterate after marriage, he just thinks everyone is laughing at him and pitying him, and he has always discriminated against illiterates and having it all confirmed by the tutor, he doesn't know what to do with himself, the Modi's are lucky if he doesn't loose it and throttles Gopi in her sleep where she lay on the floor, it would be so easy. This anger needs to come out somehow, and it's not going to come out in passion as the wife of it is not passionate, to have a battle of wills with Aham, she's more of a passive mouse type, always crying but never learning nothing.
I think with Jigar's help to lift her confidence she will win entrance into the school, but if she has to wear a uniform or the fact she is going to be the only adult in the class, will be too much for Aham, and it will make him look for a teacher for her to come at home to teach her, where no-one knows what she is.
