On the contrary I am very happy that sangramsinh is finally paying for his crimes. Of all I have seen read and heard , if there is a single villan in this entire drama , it is him. His naked lust for money has forced him to turned against his own family. On the internet , there is a court case of gujarat high court. It took some time for me to understand it . But now i realise what kind of criminal that man is. He managed the gaekwad companies on behalf of the family. When his own brother was dying of cancer , the entire family was in bombay. At this time sangramsinh fradulnetly issued fake shares in his name and took control of all the companies. He even persecuted his own 90 year old mother and called her a criminal. However, what is called as poetic justic, today all his companies are bankrupt . So now he has turned his attention to other properties. I think Mrinalini devi is totally innocent and has been made a scapegoat. Also I feel that ranjitsinh and his wife are really nice people. What I feel really sad is that the name of house of gaekwad has been dragged through mud due to this dispecable man. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
