what a woman wants... - Page 6

         Here in Bhabo's case everybody has argued that why can't she talk to Suraj about her fears. Bhabo overheard the conversation between Bhabasa and Suraj in which Suraj was unwilling to listen to the doctor engineer idea. He wanted it to be IPS and nothing else. Bhabo has heard her sons views. Suraj approaches his mother and says he wants his wife to pursue her dreams. You cannot lie to Bhabo and say there will be no separation.You cannot lie to her and say there will be no danger. What is the use than of a round table conference ?  No such assurances can be given about this profession.How can you expect a mother like Bhabo to accept such an impossible proposal. On the contrary if Suraj had just talked about graduation than she after some token protest may have agreed with Bhabasa prodding her. Here his revolutionary proposal has lost him his only friend in the family Bhabasa. To top his list of mistakes he enlisted Ankur's support in the drama which was a very big blunder. From Bhabo's side if she considers it the great Kothari conspiracy you can't blame her. She has now doubled her efforts to resist. Bhabo can be faulted for the methods she uses to make people bend, but in this I find Suraj being less far sighted than her. In his blind love for his wife he has not fully understood the long term implications of his decisions on him and the family. A man who could not keep away from his wife for a day and went running to see her will be condemned to a life of long separation either from his wife or mother both of whom he cannot live without.
