After watching today's episode and Dev's reaction today ......oh God I was thinking why Rad doesn't come up and say 'no' to Dev.... that she wants to cancel the trip.....since he is too concern about Vish.I felt the whole situation is a big insult for Rad.What is the point to take him forcefully for a trip like HM....while he is not even willing to.

Angie ... I actually think the show is getting interesting but since a lot of people watch the show for Dev, they have to show us where they are going with this

Dev could be either acting out of extreme self righteousness (very true to his character) ... and what he did today was to ensure that the person he had promised he would look after would be taken care of. Also, I think he has a right to be upset with his family ... how could they suspect his motives and publicly humiliate him when they know what he had to do to get married to Rads ... and that his intentions are pure

Or he could be crafty and be waiting for all this to play out

Either way, I think it will be good to have a stronger and wiser Dev back ... I will give it a few weeks before I panic that this is going the way of other shows

What struck me today was how quickly vish had forgotten that rads had jumped in to rescue her, hid her in the store room even though her reputation was at risk, etc ... she now thinks dev is her savior and forgot abt all the other times when rads helped her out

I am curious as to what Mrin has planned ... and am waiting for it to fail

why3 agree with u,,,really watching CB and specially dev in his new depressed and insane avatar is very painful,,
but i think dev has something in mind,,,which he doesnot want to disclose to anybody and not even radhika,,,i am sure it is not his guilt but something really fishy,,may be he has some plan in his mind ,,which he will disclose at ritetime,,,most probably something against visakha ....,,and yes visakha,,amma on one side and mircha gang on other side,,,,both fighting for their own causes,,on one side amma wants radhika out of PB and wants vish to take her place and on the other side mrinalini is playing dirty games to either kill dev or radhika,,but yes one positive out of this is one old saying coming to my mind "a monkey gains in 2 cat's fight"

Oh yeah I wondered about the phone call too...what was that about? Did they show who he was calling? I desperately need to see dev acting his part I cannot have it any other way...his character will always remain tainted to me if they don't show him acting all this out...

Bani, I don't think he is acting. He has never been shown to be devious. Also, in Goa he looked very guilt ridden. They are just taking it to extreme to show justification for bringing Vishaka to his room and for Vishaka falling for Dev. From today's episode, it seems that Vishaka for now will be in love with Dev and may even help him from Mrinalini's schemes if her suspicious looks were any indication. If that happens, then Dev will start thinking that this is new Vishaka just as Radhika thought during the wedding and his guard towards her will be even lower.

I think they are making this Radhika's fight and they brought down Dev for that purpose. Again could have shown many other ways such as Radhika telling Dev about the wedding help given by Vishaka. But they don't want to punish Amma and so they had to drag down Dev's character.

Angie ... while Dev is taking this to some extremes and causing people's BPs to go up ... you got that right Rajsri...some people's BP are so high they are ready to kill him...I'm not there yet but I am ready to abandon him😭

... if he did cause Vish to miscarry, I like the fact that he would like to support her I don't think anyone is objecting to this. It's one thing to help and support someone in need but it's completely a different story when you become so obsessed over it that you forget about common sense and become completely irrational and extreme.
... dumping her somewhere else is not the right thing to do, esp so soon after her miscarriage Again I don't think anyone expected him to dump her in the ditch somewhere but I can never understand the need to bring her to his own home and to his bed room. There were other options, why didn't he choose one of those? He's so damn rich, build a house for the princess or take her to the farm house...in fact live there with her if he must but why is he so hell bent on imposing her on his other family members. Not only that but today he was throwing tantrums like a little child...if others don't what to take care of Vishaka then he'll cancel the trip?? What kind of BS is that?? Vishaka is his responsibility not the rest of the familys. i don't understand why he even bothered to say yes...let me correct...seek permission to leave for the trip since he already knew about the princess' condition? Right away his answer should have been no to Radhika.
... As much as i would like raDev to go away on a HM, it is imperative that vish get better and that needs to be his first priority ... I know people are going to be mad at me for this My answer here is the same as above...we'll never agree on this one. Trust me I do not want them to go away for this HM, i no longer have any interest in seeing them HMing while there's all these unresolved issues hovering over their heads. Not mad at you Rajrsi, just having a civilized discussion and agreeing to disagree😃
... he gave up his room and barely looks at vish when he is communicating with her awww poor Dev can't even meet the princess' eyes...so guilt ridden he is but i'm sure he will soon b/c she'll be the one to save his life after all (from mirnu's devious plans). Then he'll be not only guilty but also indebted to her for the rest of his life.
... I think his family treating him like a pariah after knowing abt him is very unfair to him ... esp when they know that he has rad's support in this. I find dadi slapping a grown man (and a RP) in front of everyone in very bad taste Well the family has every right to be upset with him ... has he even tried to explain anything to his Dadi or mom about anything, not even in privacy. Why not? If they are supposed to have so much trust in him then why not him too? he can at least trust his Dadi who has always supported him in every little thing so why wouldn't she now? if not the truth, at least he can tell her that he'll let her know in due time. Instead he acted like a complete jerk today😡

While what he is doing now is ensuring that the person he has promised to support has the support she needs, this has to end sometime over the next few days ... he cannot be shown to be constantly doing things per vish's wishes. Once she gets better, he can find a different place for her to stay. I highly doubt so...she's here to stay not going anywhere any time soon. he should've found a different place right from the start now it's a little too late. There's no way the leech will leave, not even if he tries to kick her out. i'm sure she'll have the famous divorce papers already ready to throw it in his face. Well if she does then he very well deserves it.

just my thoughts ... I dont know how a person can go from causing a person to miscarry to being happy and going on a HM with their wife in two days just like how a perfectly fine character can go from being so wise and rational to being a Dumbo😉 within less than one full episode.

BTW, I wish they didn't introduce this HM track just yet, i wish they had waited until all this mess was resolved but alas...
