I agree with the gist of your post Ramas - in fact I had posted in another thread yest that walking with your beloved around the streets of Delhi at night is not carefree romanticism, it is irresponsible. Simi has already experienced that. Even dabhas have drunk truck drivers at night. Lets hope Abhi had been to that dabha before and knew it for a safe one!
Then again not entirely fair to say Abhi did not plan ahead - he did get a job and flat from Nakul, and everything would have worked out fine if Simi had told Nakul about her roka with Abhi immediately and not tried to marry him under false pretences. I am sure Nakul would have accepted it (since there was no firm commitment at that stage) and Abhi could have continued working with Dagar Co.
Not only that, if Simi had let her dad tell Nakul, the humiliation at the marriage could have been avoided, and SimBhi could have worked on winning over Manju and Mr T.
In short there is only person really responsible for their current situation - homeless, disowned - and that is Simi herself. And did she have plenty of warning!
I totally agree with you Bana.
1. When they were walking on the streets in the night, I was also thinking - this girl just a few days back had escape from the goon being on the street alone and Abhi knows it too. Have they both forgotten? There are real incidents in Delhi where eventhough the boy was there with the girl in a car, the girl was raped/abused. Don't these two know anything how unsafe Delhi streets are?
2. Drunk drivers in dhaba - agree again.
3. Agree again that if Simi had informed Nakul or let RS inform the Dagars this wouldn't have happened. Abhi would have had his job, as well as the flat. Nakul fights Abhi only bcos he think that it is only Abhi who is behind Simi and not Simi too.
4. All this useless, reckless, irresponsible homeless thing would not have happened if Simi was truthful when she was necessary to be one. I too hold only Simi responsible for this situation. That is the reason why that day in my comments of the episode, I had written Manju should have slapped 2,3,4 more to Simi (though I do not agree to some of Manju's doings). This is also what I had written in my comments in the post 'Shame on you Sunshiners' a few days back.
