babita has always put mini and her needs at the front. whatever the situation.
we see mini as a strong independent girl, who is bold and not scared to speak her mind. this is ony because of babita's upbringing. she was only 18 when she got married and not even 19 when mini was born. all her suppressed desires are being fulfilled through mini. babita gave all her hidden courage to mini. if a mother does not give the confidence no child can be so independent.
babita has always put mini first, even when she hid her love for HS. someone mentioned abt HS getting a camera for mini and how babita should have gotten the camera. at that point babita did not have the money. she only had 45,000 which she had to re-invest in business and use for daily things.
when she refused to file an FIR after the college incident was also for mini, because she did not want her daughter to face such personal questions.
even when mini shouted at her so badly, babita cooked her fav food.
she stayed up the entire night to stitch clothes for mini. she hid about her blisters so that mini does not get hurt.
when babita sent ashok to london, she says how she could not forgive ashok, not because he broke babita's trust, but because he broke mini's trust and heart.
when they talk about true love, again she says the same. how much ever ashok might have hurt babita, she will always be thankful to him, because she got mini because of that relation.
coming to the scene of mini wearing old clothes, it is not such a big thing. or babita chosing lehenga for herself.
right now babita is that 18 year old girl who wants to live her life. why is it so difficult to accept that? she has lived for mini for 17 years, why cant she live for herself for once? yes she is a mother, but does that mean that she cant think for herself for once? and mini is mature and old enough to understand that. why is it so strange if a daughter is supporting her mother unconditionally?
and she is not going to forget mini. its just the situation of a second marriage is such that babita is going through so many emotions that she is unable to find her balance.
though it is not mentioned clearly, but babita talks about how her father came under pressure and married her off. she is probably hurt by that. her brother hurt her, husband ditched her. she is having a hard time making herself understand that she can live again and it is ok to trust HS.
coming to babita treating mini as a child or an adult depending on her convenience. that every mom does.
personally, when i need to take a decision and ask my mom she will say, you are old enough, learn to decide for yourself. and in the next second when i sneeze, she is all over me telling me how i am a child and do not know how to take care of myself. a mother daughter relation is such.
