She is as hgg said an alpha female - a fixer and a savior so will try to fix this2. Her conscious as smrth said - she has to prove her commitment to this relationship - to herself, her parents and her in laws, so will invest all in this relationship3. There's nowhere else to go- she has literally and figuratively burned her past and believes there is no turning backPlus the emo blackmail of MIL, as you pointed out, the usual constraints of samaj and izzat that will also seal her lips to the reality of her sham marriage.But to see her take abuse - I hope not, behind closed doors I hope pramaad sees that she is no doormatHer sarees - again back to the end of innocence thought , also the shift from honest simplicity of Desais to artificial world of BD , where Kumud does what she ought , not what she wantsSo the shift from lehenga to saree.And of course in private Kumud and pramaad continue with their resp affairs unintentionally or intentionally, so her first meal goes to Saras, and his morning after pyaala of chai from kanika!Loved your post!
They are "beautifully broken lines" Arshi, and a very appealing literary style 😳 I appreciate the fact of the @Bold. There's something so timely about the CB by virtue of this... I used to wonder and now I know why...
Regarding Kumari-Dugba... I cannot help but take into attention, the twisted connect of Sahas Rai and Umess 🤢... I hope they'll be disposed of without ceremony, but I fear this will not be the case... Yes, Kumud's marriage would free up the attention-space of the Desai elders for Kumari and Kusum but at the same time, what about the revelations forthcoming? The actual fallout from Gumaan's shotgun emotional blast is yet to happen... After being made aware of Umess and his beating of Saras, Dugba will again take sides and as you say... for Saras and Kumud... but what about Kumari in the bargain... Danny is a ray of hope... Actually waiting to see him back. He brings charm to the proceedings and so does Sunny.
Kumud... Personally I want her to be "beta" in this... As you said, sab ko zindagi se wapas jodne ka zimma rakha hua hai usne ... And so she believes, but what happens when she comes face to face with that past? Her ehsaas, conscience and consciousness will all do battle and as I've said before, that'll be grand to watch. But paradoxically, at that point, I want her to be "Alpha"... And at no point do I want to see abuse... Keeping my fingers tightly crossed that we won't.
@Bold... Again so beautifully put... The wilful Kumud... Constrained... In her attire, in her emotions, in her expressions... Until that moment when the ehsaas touches her, freeing her though she cannot yet fathom why... And we see our Kumud once more...
