If this was an attempt to rape, then so was what Maya did to Arjun in the ambulance. At worst, what Ayan did could be termed a physical assault.[/QUOTE
Do you understand what the word "Rape" actually means? I am sorry but the way you say that Maya was trying to rape Arjun in the ambulance over and over is making no sense at all. In what part of the episode did they show her trying to attack him? Just coz she hugged him and slept on his chest that was rape?
But when Ayaan tore her clothes, tore the bottom of her dress, pushed her to the ground, told her he will "Make sure she can't show her face to anyone", THAT was just at best a physical assault and in no way sexual assault?
Maya's behavior is extreme and wrong any day. But how you continue to repeat the rape allegation towards Maya's attempts to get physically close to Arjun is meaningless. (Yes he was drugged and yes it was wrong. But she didn't drug him to rape him. If that was the case they would have shown her do that before as well). She has never been shown to drug him before. They were in an "Ambulance" and she had an injection at hand and she used it to drug him so he won't leave. Then she tied him to the bed and locked the doors. While she is wrong to do so, I don't think her "Intention" was to sexually violate him.
Ayaan also probably didn't come with the "Intent" to do sexual assault but in the end that is what it ended up looking like. Especially because of the things he said to threaten her. Ayaan's attack looked like a sexual assault because of the way it took place, his words and how he tore her clothes and even bit her neck. Saving his brother is not a good enough justification. He could have called the police after what he saw through that keyhole. Or even taken a picture of it. Attacking Maya was stupid at worst. If Maya had hoped to frame him, he totally played into her hands.
