What have they done to our Omkara

Hear me out. We all can readily agree on the fact that the Omkara Singh Oberoi we see in DBO is a completely different person than the calm, loving and understanding Om we used to adore in IB. The writer tries to defend his actions by stating that he's suffering and that he's in pain after he saw his mother attempt suicide in front of him. But how does that even remotely justify the way he's treating Gauri? Isn't he doing the exact same thing which he lectured Shivaay against? Fine, let's talk semantics. Shivaay's issue was with NKK and he suspected Anika of being a middle-class opportunist and a gold-digger, who was putting up an act just to get to the big bucks. Om's issue is with infedility and that Gauri is one of 'those' women because of whom a married woman could never get what she rightfully deserved. And he hates the fact that he's being forced to stay married to such a person. Fine. We get it.

How many times has Gauri tried to explain the situation to him? Wasn't Om always the one to say that every person should have the right to put forward his/her side of the story? Wasn't he always the fair one? Is he in so much pain that his morals have completely gone for a toss? Has he changed SO MUCH that he can just switch off his humanity? The way he treats Gauri is horrifying. Today was just ridiculous. Gauri was damn right. Blaming her for every little thing that even he knows she has no control over is beyond unfair. It's as if Omkara's conscience has disappeared completely. He poured water on her head and then threw her out of the room. He refuses to listen to or believe a single word she utters. He's labelled her as a cheat and liar in his head and come what may, he will not budge from it. And it's not even gnawing at him from that he might be wrong. He is okay with doing whatever he's doing and that both scares and pains me. Omkara's indifference has become physically painful to watch now.

I loved how Gauri straight up pointed out to him that she's been doing exactly what's being asked of her. He life has changed too, but she never questioned him about it. What she believes is her gratefulness and devotion towards Om, he percieves it to be greed and a big plan to run away with his money. Agreed that he cannot be compared to Tej, since Omkara never had a love marriage and nor did he cheat on his wife and family. But isn't he being as brutal and cold as his own father? Isn't he spewing the same kind of venom that he accused his father of?

Jhanvi needs to see what her son has become. She needs to open her eyes and realise that by choosing to remain blissfully ignorant about Gauri's plight at the hands of her son, she is sentencing the poor woman to a fate similar to her own, if not worse. Omkara and Jhanvi both need this. For the sake of their own souls.

I hope I made sense. I was too upset after today's episode. Please do let me know what you guys think.. no hate comments, please.

Love,
Peppy 😊

I think Jhanvi thinks Omkara has the best chance at happiness with her because she knows the friendship and the comfort that he shared with CB. Then came the episode with the freezer incident where we see Omkara almost lose his head as he desperately tries to wake up Gauri.

Somewhere along the line, she knows how deeply Omkara cares for Gauri. Maybe she simply wants Omkara to atleast give the relation a chance just so he doesn't regret anything later. Maybe, I don't think any of us will ever understand Jhanvi completely.

It might not work out but at least she tried!

That's what I think.

I get what Jhanvi is trying to do. I'm just not convinced that her methods are correct. She has been on the receiving end of taunts and hurtful words for years now so she knows what it feels like to be hated by someone you care about. I want her to realise what she's putting Gauri through. As a mother, she's doing this for Om. But as a woman, it's important to for her to understand that what Gauri is being made to go through is unfair. I want her to stand up for Gauri too. And not just as a MIL, but as someone who understands the pain of rejection even after giving 100% to a relationship.

Even I am tired of Omkara's behaviour

Why can't CVs clear their MU

Gauri is doing everything in her power

If Om wants her out

Why not take her out and leave her in Bareilly

Waise bhi Bareilly is barely minutes away

Kitna time lagega

I can't see Gauri suffer

But I think pinky had a Point

If Svetlana was not in the scene

Than maybe Jhanvi won't be so accepting

Towards Gauri

Loved how buamaa is trying to bring them together

But isn't she the villain

Why is she doing this

Lol. These serials have their own versions of the space-time continuum. Om probably travels to and from Bareilly via wormholes or something. 😆 I don't understand the definition of 'pain' that the writers are trying to put forward here. Maybe if they tried to explore Om's emotions and feelings somehow, we'd get a better insight into his head. Because right now all Om does is glare and growl. He's becoming a much darker version of SSO and it's making me super uncomfortable.
Pinky. God that woman. She was partially correct, I'll have to admit. Maybe Jhanvi wouldn't have been this accepting but since she's a sane and rational person, she would've probably melted sooner or later. My only issue with Jhanvi is that she's ignoring Gauri's pain because she wants her son to have his chance at happiness.

I think Omkara's 'pain' would have made more sense had the writers attempted to explore his feelings and emotions. We can't connect with his current state because of the absence of OM's narrative-sadly the CVs were too busy finding ways to give swetlana more SS and they screwed that up too!

Omkara is a human who don't have magical powers to read others mind, his treating gauri is bad but gauri herself created vher bad image infront of omkara, then she fails to justify it, like she portrayed herself bad in barelli track coz Kali kidnapped buama, but when she tried to justify herself , Kali turned d tables on her, what will Omkara think on , top of it it's Cb's truth, it's true gauri devices him with whatever reasons she have. Omkara definately don't have reason to trust her

Exactly! That's what's lacking in the story, Omkaara's introspection. The story could have been beautiful had they shown it from the beginning. His conflicts regarding attraction to guari even after knowing her as home wrecker but they messed up all with Svetlana's raaz.


Omkaara is still not out of character, but his attitude has become monotonous now. That's it!

You are right. As much as I love RiKara scenes, sometimes all I want Gauri to do is to disappear in the middle of the night and not come back.

But does Jhanvi know that Omkara hate Gauri? Because I'm not too sure whether she knows or not. If she does, then she is simply subjecting Gauri to the same humiliation she herself went through. Or maybe she thinks her son would never go the Tej way.

I think she knows how Omkara feels. He told her clearly that Gauri is being forced down his throats when all he wants is to get rid of her. She probably hasn't seen Om manhandling Gauri yet but she does know about the antagonism that he nurtures.
