I think Indu said in the earlier marriage episodes, the reason why M accepts Lav is because she was at least his personal choice. The emphasis was on him getting married first, then later the star sign was brought in. At that time M also asked him if he had anyone in mind she would've got him married to that person too had he volunteered any names.
With Dri, she's creating a ruckus for the star sign and not giving an inch as they don't know anything about her other than being a good, nice, trustworthy employee who suddenly gets ready to marey ine brother then under deception sits on her boss's mandap which is a life saving stance for him.
I saw that scene where she says he has 'chahne laga' his biwi - but she also understand's her son that he's a good man at heart who wouldn't willingly just separate from his wife. Similar to how he hasn't once effectively brushed Lav off?
I feel Mahima has reacted exactly as a mother should. If we have a friend who deceives us - it would take us aeons to put our faith back into them and even after that we'd always be second guessing their actions and intentions. It's natural and human. Here a mere employee (whom she gave love and care to as an almost family member) has stepped on the crux of her life who is her son - so for her to feel sympathy that Dri is orphan et all and give chance - she doesn't need to - Dri on the other hand needs to earn it. And giving out chapatti on the breakfast table isn't the only deed if the day to be with family.
Also Deepika - Dri after munh dikhay gives a speech of how she'll maintain the marriage simply because of it being the sacred bond it is that she's tied in. Next moment she says she'll have to put up a show of this marriage. So why are we only lenient and understanding towards her causes and majboori?
No idea what I've written😆... i did it in bits over a few hrs
