And if she is to be mentioned at all she is referred to as P aunty in front of elders and amongst themselves, she is referred to as chudail.
Years ago when Kapoor Group of Industries were facing some financial trouble, Sumitra had very generously lent a helping hand to Vyankatesh and since then, they were housed in the same building.
Not long after Bella's 18th birthday, Vyankatesh realised that the Kapoor Group of Companies was on the verge of bankruptcy. Essential steps had to be taken quickly before the media got hold of this news. It was then that Sumitra offered financial help to him. But he was reluctant to accept it. So she offered to buy a portion of shares and hence become a partner in his business. So Vyankatesh had sold his portion of shares to her keeping only Omkar's shares intact as only Bella and Rehan had the right over those shares.
