Its very hard to answer these questions Nikhila. Firstly the premise of the show and the basic characteristics of the main characters have often vacillated from what they were originally intended to be. This leads to contradictions in the characters itself. Life, for example: The family were turned from flawed regressed pple to positively villainous pple with serious issues with avarice. The dad whom we seem to praise now and then due to his feelings of bereavement on losing Indira tried did pretty horrible things to her in the past. So its hard to relate to such a family and Indira in the first place.

I wish HD had more consistency to properly answer these questions without everything I write sounding like refutable elements in the story due to improper writing. I can only be subjective in such a scenario. I must say that Indira yearned happiness but she never really pursued it. She was befuddled with the concept of a happy life and felt that she deserved better but her blind love for her family switched off her will power to do anything for herself.

I think the story is very post modern in setting. I remember a case voiced in Satyameva Jayate where a female doctor against female foeticide had been a victim herself under duress. Indira embodied that kind of a tragic figure. She fought for everyone else maybe from a standpoint that she could not defend herself, not that she was unable to do so but because her family was her kryptonite. At the end of the day she was a lonely woman who depended on her family to overcome solitude and thus endured whatever they threw at her. She suffered from abandonment issues. That is where Rishi is supposed to step in, be her strength and help her stop the injustice happening to her inside hr family itself and find a better life with him. That is what I imagine the story to be.

The original film(Ritwik Ghatak's Meghe Dhaka Tara) from which HD is inspired from we see the main protagonist(there Neeta) never gets happiness. She is the bread earner and waits for her chance to derive happiness, but her turn never comes. her last cry in the film was "I wanted to live". That film was a cult piece, celebrated by cinephiles over the world. But since HD is a modern rendition I guess Indira would have found her happy ending.

I do think Indira placed her family's happiness infront of her own. The Irony is that her family's happiness resulted in her happiness in the long run. If Rishi had ever shown any attempt at abandoning her she might have done the same for him. Isolation and emptiness is what ate up her insides and drove her to do whatever she did for her family. She was an insecure person(just like all of us)who put up a facade to cover her vulnerabilities.

I loved Indira because she was so relatable. Most young women who shout out that they are the embodiment of the so called 'modern' woman and dont take no for an answer, get exploited in their own way but remain oblivious to it. All of us would like to believe in the opposite but life is not that forgiving. Most pple who refuse to understand Indira are fooling themselves. 😊 HD promised us a strong woman(she is to her surrounding and to society maybe) but we in a voyeuristic way get to see Indira, a woman broken and scarred inflicted with serious trust issues. We cant see the story or Indira in such a simplistic way and understand where she comes from. Its quite layered and one cant simply tag her as black or white and move on. Similarly Rishi can be explained under the same rubric.
