Kapoor shares her thoughts.

Reena says, "Ranju has faced a lot of hardships since her husband left her 14 years ago for another

woman

. It is because of these challenges that she stands so strong today. In spite of all this, she has always kept her stance low when she had to take a stance for herself. But with the difficulties that Lalita has put in her life, she finally stands up for herself. I believe this is an example for all the women out there, who consider themselves burdened under this

patriarchal society

, to stand up for themselves and to not fear anything or anyone. Like Ranju says ‘Yeh darne wali nahi, ladne wali Ranju hai’, everyone should know when to put on a fierce face. I am glad women are stepping out today and don’t think about the society but think how she can make a difference within the society and herself."

Ranju unconditionally loves her family, and chooses not to give up but to fight, so that she can take care of everyone's happiness but this fact doesn't neglect the respect she has for herself. Setting an example for women out there can make a huge difference to society.

Ranju Ki Betiyaan is a heart touching story of a single mother Ranju and her struggles of raising 4 daughters in a patriarchal society. It delves into the various societal issues faced by single mothers, and will witness Ranju empowering herself to raise her four daughters single-handedly to help them achieve their dreams.
