After watching this weeks episodes there are a few striking differences between the young and adult Devanshi.
1. The young Devanshi was always optimistic - and managed to smile through all the difficulties she faced. The adult Devanshi - so far, has been shown to be predominantly crying (not tearing up but literally crying).
Has she turned pessimistic too? It is too early to tell.
2. The young Devanshi always thought ahead and was full of ideas of what to do next to achieve her goals. The adult Devanshi - is finding it difficult to get the past out of her mind. She is not thinking ahead. It is almost as if she wanted to erase the past out of her life but is unable to get it out of her mind. This is partly because of Sakshi's condition; partly because she has not come up with ideas as to how to get the best medical help for Sakshi given her economic constraints; and partly due to various other factors that have still to be shown to us viewers.
3. The young Devanshi was a go-getter, she was a doer - in fact she always busied herself doing stuff. The older Devanshi is hesitant to step ahead and get going - she feels bound by her words to Omi. The younger Devanshi would have mentally said sorry to Omi and moved on whereas the older Devanshi is reluctant to take the final plunge (symbolically she was near the edge of cliff debating whether to go ahead - when the younger Devanshi appeared and urged her to get going in locating Sakshi).
4. The young Devanshi was very emphathetic - the older Devanshi has lost some of this virtue. The way she bargained by pulling off the economically disadvantaged vendor's pen and the words of the flower vendor made it clear that Devanshi did not empathize with them. Whereas, the young Devanshi was the opposite - she went out of the way to feed a hungry person her plate of ladoos! Perhaps being economically challenged has toughened Devanshi
I am only stating the above to show how life experiences have shaped the adult Devanshi's behavior
