Shruthi, you said this long ago, that Satrupa the mother has to emerge from within Satrupa the LM bahu. I feel this is starting to happen slowly ... the first step was when Satrupa hid Laddoo from Anami to bring Anami closer to her ... bringing Laddoo back immediately would have exposed Sudha but Satrupa chose to hide him only for her selfish 'mamta'. Although she gave Damo the ostensible reason that it was to provoke Sudha further, but that was not true.
While she is worried about Laddoo exposing her secret, she doesn't want to hurt him, and by extension, Anami ... hence her words, ... she doesn't want to fall in Anami's eyes. Slowly, the role of Anami's mother is becoming more important to her ... when she brought Anami back to LM, it was because she saw her as the heir to LM, with no concern for her happiness.
Laddoo is a big part of this ... she has developed genuine affection for Laddoo ... he gives her the same love and admiration she got from Vatsalya ... so the mother in her, who was frozen after Vatsalya's death, is slowly coming back to life.
Also she is starting to see Narottam as a person in his own right, a person who has been wronged in many ways ... not just as an extension of Sudha and a constant reminder of Baldev's mistake ... and the way she herself was deceived.
