True! But I also feel that, since he is a young teen, its possible that its due to his age and time phase that is causing him to be all moody. All the other kids are still kids. Once you are a teen, the whole world to you is such a confusing place to be! You are trying to figure out who you are, and you find it more comforting to be with familiar people. He seems to respect this grandma, right na? It just seems like, he sees her differently since birth. She seems to understand him and how he is. He seems to only trust her in life.
As for Chetna not being able to see his rudeness, guess she is just point blank blinded by his love and can't see anything beyond that. He treats her well, so she overlooks everything else he does or says, and don't think she saw him act that way with the other kids.
Trust me, I have a teen bro lol, So I know.. how he is portraying himself.. is ditto how my bro is! lol. So i'm guessing its an age thing. haha. It also depends on personalities. when it comes to respecting people. Just because he is being that way, doesn't mean he has no respect for others, its just, his way of expressing himself is flawed. He needs time to settle down, he seems to get all defensive when someone comes near him or tries to help him.
Even when he says sorry and thank you, you don't sense any genuineness in it.. but guess, the background you come from also matters and shows. His parents are supposed to have negative roles, and if he already his breed is from such a neg. environment, its no surprise he is like that. Its like, Monkey see Monkey do kinda thing, with parents and kids. So yaa.. give it time, maybe if he sticks around with these kids, he might be able to become better? He is supposed to be Isha's love interest after all, I'm assuming that part is going to happen, once they are all grown up, as kids are not soo well familiar with that emotion yet. So yaa.. lets give it time.. and we hope to see better things from Sam.
Btw, he is doing a fab job in acting tho.. very natural! Even alll the kids.. I love Tinnu, Cutting, Thakur, and Isha! FABULOUS! ALL OF THEM!! 😃🤗👏
