@Mandy & @Ri
I feel Avni is already showing symptoms of a bahu, she is less assertive with her in laws when they taunt or insult her. No one asked her to be disrespectful to them but she can be more firm and more assertive in her way of dealing with them. She has mainly been wearing sarees post marriage, and her top most priority is to win Shweta over and mend relationships within the family! I know there is no harm at that and she sees them as her family the one she always longed for but the time she gives to it and the way she goes about it is a problem!.
Before marriage her main purpose was to get back her brother, now she barely gives him time! I have never seen her visit Nanoo or spend time with her post marriage, for God's sake, this is her grand-mother and they have been apart for 15years!!! What about a career for herself, something that can identify her as an individual!
I'm quoting myself from some posts about the same :
"How I wish Cvs occupied her time with other things instead of bahufying her, the main thing which she came for was her brother, if they gave us scenes with her bother, it would have been way much better than Swetha and Riya plotting. She should also have thought about a career for herself and focused on her relationship with Neil, at least spend time with him if not as a lover as a friend whom she can trust, who helped her a lot, spend time with the people who really love her, why is she wasting her time on Shweta, a woman who would point fingers on your character and who you think is plotting against you is so underserving in my point of view, it tells a lot about her personality: a saas can be insecure, utter some bitter words but going to the point of tarnishing another woman's reputation just to oust her of her son's life should have given a clear idea to Avni about what kind of people Shweta is!!
"Avni is shown oblivious to what is happening around her, where is the alert, shrewd Avni of pre-marriage who used to turn the tables (remember when Riya and Diksha tried to frame her in the jewellery theft, or when Amol wanted to show the video featuring her mom's face and she was a step ahead and not only blurred that part of the video but also showed a video sequence of Dayavanti talking about the mortgage and the video was taken by Diksha's phone!) I miss that Avni. By now, she knows to which extent some people can go and she knows Shweta was involved in showing her in a bad light, so she should be one step ahead of her too! She should know how to play her games, didn't she try to win Dayavanti when she was a child yet she failed, some people can just never change, they have this unjustified hatred and who better than Avni to know this!! While I understand she is grateful to Neil, Bebe and Prakash, she should also be realistic in her approach with Shweta, Neil himself seems to feel his mom is a lost case though I don't know whether he knows to which extent she can go!
I know she behaved unlike other bahus when she refused to give agnipariksha and walked out with her head held high, though it could have also been better had she given them her innocence proof and walked out as they didn't trust her on her word, at least she could have known that Rhea is plotting against her.
Anyways I hope now, once she sees with her own eyes how Rhea will clearly stand against her and also after seeing how Shweta behaves, she stops being lenient. She should be diplomatic and shrewd yet respectful, if Shweta can't change, then Avni should change her approach with her and be one step ahead instead, she can ignore whatever Shweta says but never let her create a rift between her and Neil.
