Shruthi di, nice take.
I would say Vandana is a very real character. She's not an ideal mother but among those judgemental mothers who can just see their son's happiness. Such characters do exist in real life, infact I would say hardly their are completely selfless mothers. Though her behavior after ArYa marriage was insenisitive but now I can't blame her fully after what she has seen happening to her son's.
Having said this I can't agree to her on Maya bimar nahi buri hai.. theory ! I believe even an evil person has a good side within. But if CVs want to show this then fine. Since Vandana predicts the right things abt Maya.. so Maya's manipulations will be out in front of Arjun.
Even if I try my best I can't hate Maya. My heart just goes out to this girl every time she talks abt her insecurities...
She is a psycho, accepted... She is an evil, accepted.. But is it her choice to become like this? Her father's abuse leaves so much stains on her that she can't see true love in Arjun. Always keeps feeling he will leave her or world will separate her from him. If not world, she fears her own illness to make him run away. When she said "Am I this bad that Arjun's love can't act as medicine for me?" I was like 🥺
Yes this is the same Maya who threats VM to send Arjun to jail for beating her, the same Maya who says she is ready to die or kill for Arjun. Her crimes are unpardonable, she isn't in love.. but it's her sanak.. All her actions aren't justified, but I can't detest her due to the way this character is presented.
Having said this I want her to get punished for her crimes.. and I am fully prepared to see a sad end for her...
But I hope she gets happy ending. Not by Maya left scott free for her crimes. I want her to get punished for what she has done, spend few years in jail n redeem fully after her punishment and Arjun waiting for her all these years n finally ending up together. And Arjun should be knowing both side of the story.. He should know Maya's Sach fully n then it's his choice to accept her.
I know this doesn't happen in real life n in normal condition it's not possible for Arjun to forgive Maya after all her manipulations are out ... But hearing his recent episode dialogues I feel his love is what called "Beyhadh"... N Kushal's surprisingly good acting, I am holding up my hopes.
