Strong Gopi...

I think Gopi is strong...judging by the way she has put Radha in her place a couple of times...I believe she is simply showing respect to her elders (in terms of Kokila) but she is no longer the vulnerable girl she once was...I think this strength of hers will come through more and more as the serial progresses.

But where is this strength if all you are going to do is bang your head against a brick wall and put up with constant taunts. Elders aside, they should perhaps put themselves in Gopi's place to know what she is going through. Gopi deserves better than this if she is judged by her past goodness. But as you can see, that passes for naught. She has been accused of deliberately losing her child, hiding the news about a second daughter while at the same time dealing with Kokila and Ahem's hatred. All I can say is even a dog realises when it is being mistreated and behaves with fear or hesitance. Gopi giving up a perfectly good job to become housemaid has fallen in my estimation. I thought she was stronger and independent.

yea but i hate how she is trying to suck up to them...basically she is feeding them with the idea that they are right at being mad at her and she is sorry for her actions...but she didn;t do anything wrong...it was an accident.. and no mother would want to live in a house where people are blaming her for her kid's death.

Any parent who loses a child (the way Meera disappeared) would blame themselves. I don't think Gopi is paying heed to the accusations of Ahem and Kokila, she blames herself because she wishes she could have done more to stop this unfortunate event. Deep down, she knows it was an accident.
Kokila is furious because Gopi dared to leave the house without her say so. And judging by her treatment of Gopi in the past, she is not the kind of person who can tolerate such action.
Ahem is just lashing out but deep down he cares for Gopi.
Gopi isn't bowing down to Ahem or Kokila, she is in MM only for the sake of her daughter. She is a mother and as such cannot bare to be separated from her child.
Gopi is a caring soul. She has become strong in those 8 years of fending not only for herself but also her child. Because of her soft nature, she isn't so abrupt about her new found strength but it is there.

Gopi could easily ask madhu to take Radha away since it's obvious that she's making it hard for gopi to gain her rightful place back, why madhu didn't think of it is beyond me, mind you she caved in to attending the marriage of Radha and ahem. Instead of madhu having at go at urmilla all the time she should have thought that two sisters can not live under the same roof considering Radha was disappointed in not marrying her brother in law.

I reckon different...vidya deserves every bit of ahem's money...but gopi doesnt need to go through abuse for that. Its more important for vidya to see a healthy relationship between her parents than see them as a married couple. Can u imagine a child witnessing her dad and grandma yelling at her mom and treating her like a maid...it would be traumatizing for any kid...its just wrong on all levels. Teaching young girls that you have to take on whatever ur inlaws say and never complain is wrong...no wonder there are so many daughter in laws commiting suicide in india...u can only take so much for so long

Radha is not going out of modi bhavan until meera truth comes out. I doubt gopi or kokila will ouster Radha till that point.

I don't think that a strong Gopi needs to shout or throw tantrums. She need not demean anyone, not even Radha. But it is not strong Gopi I am seeing now because she is not taking her place in MM. She is trying to woo two people back who don't want to be wooed.

There is a difference between being sensible and being blind. Gopi IMHO is being blinded by the requests from the likes of Baa and Parag who let her down when she needs them the most.

Gopi's stay in MM would have been fine with me if she just sticks to taking care of Vidya and perhaps teach the other kids. It would have been fine with me if she made sure that she stayed there with dignity instead of trying to right a relationship single handedly.

I do not think Vidya will lose out on anything if Gopi is not Ahem's wife anymore or a Modi DIL for that matter. No matter who Gopi is, Vidya is and will always be the heir to Ahem's share of Modi empire. Prince William did become the prince in waiting even if his mother divorced his dad😊

I think Gopi was strong when she decided not to go back to Bhopal taking Vidya with her. I think she proved herself strong by making it a point to Radha that she should not interfere in her personal decisions. But that is it.

By trying to cook, clean, worry for those who don't want her, she looks like sucking up to them. And all she gets in return for saving someone from taking poison is to be told that she is a mere guest, so will she get out!

I do not think Gopi will achieve anything by cooking for Ahem and trying to get into his good books. Gopi is smitten and in love even after all these years. So she will take the smallest morsel thrown to her wishing that she gets back her husband and MIL. It would be nice if her wishes were reciprocated.

Wouldn't it be prudent for Gopi to stop trying for a bit and let Koki and Ahem settle down with Vidya? They will start enjoying her and mellow down a bit, atleast to the stage where they will not jump on Gopi everytime she does something nice for them.

It is NOT ok to accept being put down time and again in front of your own kid because you want to get your relationship right. Gopi is causing major disservice to herself, her kid and also to Ahem and Koki.

While Vidya blames Radha for all the hate Koki has right now, she will soon start blaming either Gopi herself or Kokila for the animosity between them. She will do the same with Ahem too. If Gopi keeps being nice to Koki and Ahem when they don't want her to even come near them, sooner or later Vidya will form the opinion that her father and Dadi are unreasonable. Even Samar and Sahil have wondered aloud why Koki is not able to like their Pari miss.. This thought will only grow deeper in the minds of those kids and it will not take long if they see Gopi being shouted/taunted at time and again. The novelty of the family, the house and new relations can go only this far.

I do not say that Gopi has to go back to Bhopal taking Vidya. She can however stay as told, as a guest. I do not agree that she is taking her rightful place as a bahu now. She is however taking the place of the lapdog who will not go away even when asked to.

Gopi has no authority in the house. She cannot give her opinion on anything, be it Radha, Urmi or Rashi. She cannot complain because the PM of the house does not consider her a member. All she can do is watch and wait.

Baa's advice about getting into Ahem's good books is easily said than achieved. Ahem waited 8 years and he is not going to be swayed. He harbors a sense of grief and resentment that goes beyond wanting green tea and eating Kadi. Their problems are much deeper.

Unless Koki and Ahem also understand that, there will be no good dialogue about real issues in their relationship. I think Gopi is not being strong. She is being the submissive naive woman who wishes that her dreams come true. But the truth is, it rarely works that way.🥱
