I am not sure if anyone is supporting Ayaan for his actions...Ayaan should have let go the moment Maya hid the keys in her blouse.
He was stupid to run around her and using force to get the keys...ABSOLUTELY WRONG.
But I fail to understand why declare him the culprit when the crime is yet to be proved...One should analyse both the sides..That is the logical thing to do
Ayaan despite seeing that Maya hid the keys in the blouse ran after her and forced her to give the keys...When her sleeve got tore he should have stopped..but he kept chasing her for keys...Well one can argue that he was drunk , plus Arjun had told so much stuff about Maya that he was angry plus he saw his brother tied in such a helpless state...but that doesn't mean that he should without applying brains can pursue her and get involved in a tussle with Maya to get the keys..The sensible thing would have been to call the police...So, what he did was WRONG...like Maya said "Jitne samajhdar dikhte ho utne ho nahi" ..Also that neck biting part I am not sure if it was clearly shown...I will wait for that matter to unfold and then only can make a comment on it
Now even if he used foul language in other context still he should have refrained from using such language no matter how furious he was...He should have tackled the situation better but then he wouldn't have got trapped and story wound't have moved forward
Now coming to Maya...If one says that she is absolutely right in this case then in my opinion it is surely NOT THE CASE...She is not an innocent soul who didn't do anything
She did hid the keys in her blouse...She did instigate Ayaan by saying "Jitne samajhdar dikhte ho utne ho nahi" , "Accha hua tumhare bhai ne tumhe chodh diya" "She did lock Jhanvi and Arjun in their respective rooms" "She did instruct her mom to stay in the room only"
Why are people not doubting Maya even for a second ! When we can doubt Ayaan and his story then we should doubt Maya as well coz things are pointing out that Maya can be at fault too..To assume that Maya is absolutely the victim here would not be right !
Benefit of doubt should be given to both unless the story unfolds and truth comes out
So, to say that Ayaan is absolutely right and Maya is totally wrong is a NAIVE THING TO SAY
AND to say that Maya is absolutely innocent and AYaan is the rapist is EQUALLY NAIVE THING TO SAY !
Now m not an expert on Feminism or anything..In my opinion such cases are very sensitive...To declare a man the culprit even before the final verdict is unfair to that man IF HE IS INNOCENT...If we go by what Arjun said then all men will be punished and declared guilty even before the case begins...One must be empathetic to the rape victim but to assume that the accused is wrong always coz no woman will lie about such a thing is naive !
One must not jump to conclusions like this... both things are necessary - every victim must get justice and no innocent should be punished irrespective of their GENDER in my opinion !
So, in my opinion IF AYAAN IS SAYING THE TRUTH then he must be punished or fined for his conduct but CERTAINLY NOT FOR RAPE AND MAAYA SHOULD ALSO BE PUNISHED FOR FRAMING HIM
AND IF MAYA IS RIGHT AND HE LIED THEN AYAAN DESERVES A SEVERE PUNISHMENT.
But untill the truth comes out to declare Maya a saint and Ayaan the culprit of rape attempt is a bit harsh!
