It would be too disappointing if Dev was actually being fooled by all this as Sahaye & his wife are definitely trying to trap Dev. Its too obvious all this mewling for sympathy & showing of marks. I agree with all the very insightful observations above:
- if she was genuinely abused she would be a lot more fearful, definitely too fearful to be drooping all over dev so frequently eg yoga lesson
- real abusers are a lot more conscious to hide this side in front of people. so why make such an exhibition in front of dev
- and why keep bringing dev around, if you are such an insecure husband you will definitely keep a man who thinks your wife is his far faaar away from your home & yr wife. in fact any normal (non-abusive) husband would do so.
Incidentally my mother was disgusted by all this as she dislikes the Vani character & thinks Dev is the biggest fool to be sniffing around her plus she found it boring.
Have we forgotten Zohra apa saying: Woh mujhe Zeher lagti hai (I dislike her like poison). After all Zohra apa had know and been fond of Mehek.
