Oh we do, birlas are definitely dyfunctional.
Anand is manipulative but he does it very subtlety, and with a smile on his face, he does not respect his wife.
So in turn, mahima feel that she doesn't get the respect she deserves. So tries to control the household by putting down manjari.
Manjari she deserves a whole post yaar.
Parth and shefali kuch samaj nahi aata mujhe Inka.
Harsh is a complete jerk, he treats everyone horribly exept Abhi and anand. Mahima he doesn't disrespect but has a cold war going on with.
And also the fact that his son calls him "sir" and he might have had an affair.
And Abhimanyu really that guy is harsh son I am telling you he has all of his traits even stronger, Abhimanyu never knows when to stop. But they're positive because of manjari's sanskaar.
And the fact that this educated family of doctors sorry "surgeons" ignores Abhi's anger issues completely.
Like he break furniture on regular basis and nobody bats an eyelid, they are like "he is just acting out", like Abhi is some toddler.
But the difference between goenkas and birlas is that birlas always treated Abhi well, gave him love and respect. Infact their word revolves around him.
Coming to Birla family dynamics, each member there has a story behind and some are like sealed vaults of Padmanabhaswamy temple. God knows what all are there in those secret chambers.
It would be interesting to unfold all those mysteries.
Neil is the best brother and character for me there. He is selfless and devoted to his brother and can go any extreme for him, which probably Abhi doesnt realise.
Next as of now I like Mahima. She is clever, intelligent and pursued her ambitions and with her dedication reached the heights of fame but craves for recognition among her family members which she doesnt get whether its from her husband, or son or brother in law. Tough for a female to survive in this high paced male dominated professional world and she does a superb job at that. Even her advices are balanced and know what to speak and when which i dont think any other Birla knows so well except to some extent Harsh.
Anand not much to say, but is diplomatic very ego centric though emits it subtlely but still genuinely concerned for the birla kids.
Harsh is very smart, manipulative ambitious hardworking abusive jerk of a husband but he genuinely loves Abhi and try to run his life as well. He knows his son very well and his instincts on his son are very sharp. He is definitely the father of abhi cause abhi is the photocopy of him whether in physical features or traits except ethical values which comes from his mother.
Manjeri is a loving, caring, patient indecisive mother who nurtured all the birla kids and instilled moral values in them. But her self esteem is low due to her under achievements and continuous harrassment by her husband. She has kept the entire birla family together catering to each and every person's need. Though she has immense love for Abhi but least connectivity with him. Dont think, she is his actual mother. That knowledge is going to be worst heartwrenching moment of Abhi.
Parth and shefali loves each other but needs better understanding and parth needs to really work on something rather than simply sitting useless at home.
Abhi my best.. love him to the core with all his imperfections and flaws. Though he do needs to work on his impulsive nature and short temper and better communication with Ak if things have to go smoothly.
