Paro kept mooing after him & submissively gloating about that bloody diya & I just felt like giving him one right smack across his face!! And what gave him the right to sit on his damn high-horse & condescendingly judge Chandramukhi?? She isn't an aristocratic spoilt brat, she entered a trade where she lives with dignity & honesty & makes a decent living with the few gifts the Almighty gave her- Her beauty & her learnt adaas. Even if she does sell her body, W*F is he to deem it unseemly?? Atleast she isn't a spoilt loser sitting on her arse & drinking herself to death!! I really liked her character & her flaw to me was that she fell in love with such an idiotic loser! Even then, she literally rose in love, she didn't weep & cry & rail sitting in a fancy haveli & act like a petulant brat & storm out of it while forgetting all about her responsibilities & duties towards his family, forever.
Dev is the sort of men you run away from, not lose your head over & marry. Loser ends his own life, what is he going to support you & enter into an equal partnership with you.
These aren't love stories. They're Torture Stories. And it bothers me a lot when people glorify this self-flagellating, sadistic, heady, crazy tripe as "love."
