@dodemoon For a second there I was worried about the other girl hovering over Aditya, past shows taught me to never assume the main couple is safe from them ending up with other people. But your point of view makes me see her role differently now. She was there giving him her attention and it could have been easy for Aditya to find comfort in her as many men might have, but instead all he longed for was his wife😳. And the fact that they were still married is even better. I just assumed they were divorced and he may be getting a new girlfriend. I guess she was like Ashard, looks good on the outside in terms of having her life more together, making Zoya look bad like Ashard made Aditya look bad when he came in being a hero, but both Aditya and Zoya have been the only one's able to break down each other's walls and most importantly we want the story of Zoya and Aditya's second chance and not how other people are better for them.
He, did have it worse in the end, but what I saw with Zoya its been worse for some time now, she's been taking hits for both him and his family since the night he proposed, Not counting the Ashard fiasco. Nani and Rajvir started to target her because she kept on seeing their stopping attempts against Aditya. To me Aditya's words that night were like the last hit. She didn't have it in her to fight for anything anymore, especially since she's been fighting for him this whole time.
Okay imagine this, someone getting hit repeatedly, with little time to no time to catch their breathe and during the whole attack they are standing, and just after the last major blow someone else comes and pushes them with one finger and they fall, unable to get up again. That's how I saw it. One little, but not so little accusation by Aditya and she was done, I think it might have appropiate if she had gone weak on knees with tiredness and made her struggle to speak for a bit, before going at him. I've seen this in less extreme situations, someone's strong, in the front line taking care of everyone with little time to recover, holding on for their loved ones and than one day they seem to freak out on the smallest thing, or drop from exhaustion. So yes he did get the biggest hit out of both of them I agree, but little hits over time can be just as harmful. Even if some or most were unnecessary.
What I didn't like the most about Arjun in the end with little time to make up with his brother was that he was mean to him all the time now. But I don't hate him for leaving, it gave Aditya a little needed, but would have been unobtainable at an appropriate future since the show was ending was some time alone with his parents. He had to take care of his mom's health and his father's company for the first time in his life he was responsible for his family, not that he was incapable of it before, but there was always someone else who could do it. An understanding for his moms pain and longing for her husband when he cheated and left (because he thought his wife cheated) was formed, maybe even an appreciation for his dad's hard work all these years, it gives you a different perspective and deeper appreciation of a person when you live in their shoes for a bit and Arjun might have hindered that somehow and he got to learn that it might not have been easy to live in their shoes. I'm glad he got to do something for them on his own for a while, with no one there to cause him to second guess himself, or cushion him to the point of running his life without telling him what is going on, like all his loved ones have done. I found it sad yet beautiful. And it also shows life does go on and sometimes you think you've lost everything (when Pooja died) until you lose even the things you have left, leaving you with almost nothing. He found a purpose in the very people he's been running from since he was, I think 16?
There are some things one has to go through alone in order to heal. I feel that was his healing time from his past pain that was inflicted by his parents wrong actions and his refusal to forgive or understand them for a long time, this stole what should have been time spent with them, this left him exposed to looking for Love and comfort somewhere. His healing doesn't start with Pooja, but his parents. Arjun and Zoya were also not there when this went down, only a broken mom and an absent or slipping away father. Only this time his dad isn't coming back and his mom is in a far worse state.
