Every mom loves all her kids. Ishwari too loves her kids. But she loves Dev a tad bit more than others. In her words, its because he was her first son; he was the one that first made her a mother; he was the one that gave her the identity of "Dev's mom". She wants to love him more... because she is proud of him. She empathises with him in every stage of life from childhood till today and supports him achieve his every goal in life.
As Dev rightly says, "for a person to succeed in life he needs hardwork, sincerity and prayers - and my mom has done all these for me. So, any reward for me, actually goes to her!". He owes her his entire life. He is aware of that. And Ishwari is proud of him for that.
Ishwari is blamed for not giving the right childhood to her elder daughter, Neha. Ishwari is surely guilty of it. However, she feels that at that point in time, Dev was the eldest, the fastest and the smartest and that she had to give him everything, so that, one day he will be able to take care of the whole family including his sisters, her daughters.
At one point, it so happens that Neha's wedding will not happen if Dev does not marry the groom's sister. Although she knew that Neha was keen on the marriage, she refuses to put Dev under pressure for a marriage and does not hesitate to call off Neha's wedding!
The mom-son relationship has been very beautifully weaved in this show. They have a wifi connection and one completes not just the sentence of the other, but even thought of the other person.
Of all problems that the Dixit family faced, Dev very clearly remembers the pain that his mom went through as a woman in this world. Ishwari had been an extremely strong woman. She is, however, very possessive of Dev and gets disturbed, every time Dev's marriage is discussed. I sit and wonder why..Why is this mom so possessive of her son.. to the extent that she does not want to share him and his love with anyone..
Ishwari is a possessive mother, because she owned Dev, banked on him. He was not just her son - he was her life. He was her eyes. Through him, she saw her future, the future of her broken family. He was her heart that helped her live even after she was emotionally dead with her husband's death. He was her limbs that helped her sail through everyday of her life when hardships were at it its peak. She made him the way she dreamt of. She worked hard, very hard, in moulding the 8 year old boy into the smart, successful, intelligent, business man that he is, today. And she was not ready to give him away to anyone else. Her relationship with her son is like that of a boy who asked his mom to hold his hand while crossing a river. When the mom asked why, the boy said "If I hold your hand and something happens, chances are that I may let your hand go, but if you hold me, I know for sure that you will never let go of me!" During the hard times, they both needed this reassurance..and now, its too hard to let go.
We use "Entire lifetime" as a very long time..But in reality, its just 4 or 5 phases of short periods of time. As we move on to the next phase of life, the previous phase becomes a memory..and we cherish the happy times and heal ourselves of sad memories and move on. This will happen to Ishwari as well, eventually. But, until then..she has to go through the pain. It will be sad to see that its not just her, who is hurt. Inadvertently, she is going to hurt her dearest son and the girl that is dearest to him. And this is also a kind of love.
