Hello friends,

Hola Sharmila!

So I'm one of those people who initially did not mind what Dadi was doing. Yes, she's interfering, but it was for the benefit of her granddaughter. From the beginning of the show, she came off as a very intelligent lady. Whereas the rest of Jahnvi's family came under Viraj's "maya", hm what's the right word? They automatically fell for his words, she was the only one to voice her concerns, telling them that they should be a little more cautious in proceeding further with this marriage.

Furthermore, when Jahnvi's family visited her at the Dobriyal mansion after the wedding, only Dadi was the one to recognize that maybe there was something that Jahnvi was keeping from her, that she wasn't actually happy. And her suspicions were pretty much confirmed when she overheard the watchman talking etc.

And I think in some sense she definitely was justified in interfering and trying to help her granddaughter escape the hell she's suffering through.

However, recently, I feel like her actions aren't smart, they're more spontaneous. Why would someone like her attempt to tackle someone like Viraj? Why wouldn't she try to enlist someone to help her out? Yes she's talked to Sanjay, but he's in jail! He can't help her! There's always safety in numbers, and I think her having one more person along with her, maybe someone from Jahnvi's family, would have been more intelligent. At any point since she's moved into Dobriyal mansion, she could have talked to someone but she chose not to. Even in the past few episodes, ever since Dr. Rana disclosed the truth, instead of attempting to confront Viraj by herself...which led to her being in the current situation she's in, she should have brought someone else along with her. The one hope I have left is when, in today's episode, she said that she sent the file off to somewhere else.


Overall though, yes, I get where you guys are coming from with your dislike for her, but I think her interference is not so bad. And she had the right intentions, so I can't really completely hate her.

That being said, amd I glad that her track is over and we won't see that "adventurous" Dadi anymore? Definitely! It's hightime we get back to Jahnvi and Viraj.

Phew. Long post. Hope I haven't put people to sleep

Cheers!

Naina, Wonderful to read your post. I agree dadi is the only lady here who is not influenced by Viraj's aura. She could sense that Jahnvi's paradise is lost! So far so good. Its acting like Ms Marple was something I could understand and appreciate. It was her Lara Croft avatar that irritated me. Valour without a direction, made Dadi into a Don Quixote.

I loved dadi character too, and hate that ugly scary evil minded viraaj
he should die..but I like karanvir bohra so I want his good judwa bhai to appear in serial fr jaanvi

I liked Dadi's character... For one reason that she is the only one who was sane enough to see through Viraj, and in whatever capacity tried to help Jhanvi.. And for her age and background she actually did a lot. Old people we see in today's shows, submit themselves or family to God and Destiny, but she didn't...

Hi Ritz, glad to read your comment and would love to interact more with you. Viraj is not a character I would love to know in life, a show is alright. From a real perspective, filing an FIR against him and then approaching a counsellor would have helped. However in India, every action of a woman gets marred by the social implications. Jahnvi has been pulled by her own parents. Dadi was absolutely right in her decision to find more about Viraj but her overenthusiasm ruined everything. People like Viraj exist in real lives because women let them exist by bowing to all their demands. I wish at least now the CVs focus on Jahnvi and not just show her crying,
