Really wish they showed some bonding as She is the only person other than Rohan and may be Padma that has genuine feelings for Dev. She is the only real family he has and of course Dadaji
Lets hope they show some progress. The Dev and Dadi relation was so strong in CB1 that its hard not to compare
Dadi-Dev bonding and Amba- Dev bonding are different because the circumstances are different. Dadi and Dev belonged to a very influential family where dadi was the ruling matriach and Dev the darling son of the family who was spoilt by everyone. Dadi was Dev's best friend and guide. Whereas although Amba is also Devs mentor here, she knows that Dev is actually not a servant but a member of the family whose identity has been kept hidden. This family is a traditional family with traditional values. Amba is also a very traditional person so she might not cross the servant-master invisible border that exists to Amba regarding Dev. Considering Dev, Amba has been always telling him what to do and what not to do........she has given him loads of responsibilities from childhood.....and that is why Amba might be not be a friend to Dev but just a mentor. Thats why Dev might be hesitating in telling Amba the truth. Dev and Birju had a similar relationship.....although both were best friends but there was an invisible border between the two.
There is a similar relationship to Dev-dadi in this show..........thats Masaram-Radhika.Infact I find this relationship more interesting than Dev-dadi..........the reason is that although Radhika is an adopted dauhter, Mansaram always keeps her interests first in his life..........being poor and uneducated he is ready to stand up for her in whatever way he can.............Radhika trusts her father completely and looks at him always and knows that if he is around then she is ok.
