I read this book and felt that this book is a typical "saas bhi kabhi bahu thi" or "valika badhu" sort of story. I assume Ekta Kapoor would be keen on making a("what!"- "what!"- "what!")- kind of day by day cleanser out of it. Woman's rights is great yet what Deshpande has depicted through Jaya is fairly simulated. For instance, she contemplates over the way that why Mohan(her hubby) is not keen on taking any settlement(subliminally she is pondering her dull appearance and thakes it as a reply), her servant Jeeja is likewise a casualty of male hawkishness as her better half beats her in the wake of expending liquor, her neighbor Mukta, Mukta's girl Nilima everyone is enduring as it appears. Fake! Jaya has an online blog called "Seeta", again Feminism! While understanding it I was feeling like it is still India? That is to say, it's entirely unnatural that everything in a(supposed autonomous, desolate) lady's life appears to drag her into the dim gap of despondency made by the twisted patriarchal society. apologies, it's not some tea.
