I agree that right now she is acting selfish, heartless, mean and totally being oblivious to his feelings. Or so we are made to believe.
See the point is even I would have loved to see AR as friends (for the time being), sharing their feelings and memories etc. But then when I think about it I wonder is it possible to be "just friends" with a person you still love. Friendship is a platonic relationship. AR can NEVER have a platonic relationship. They love each other too deeply for that. We know that every time AR are in close proximity they kind off get lost in each other or feel something for each other. Their feelings are no longer under their control then. (we saw that in lonavala, we saw it when Riddhima hugged him from behind, we saw that when Riddhima almost leaned in to kiss him in the FE after he had returned).
Now Riddhima we know is sincerely trying to work on her marriage and is trying hard to develop feelings for her husband. Obviously she knows that if she ever loses herself in front of Armaan and lets out her feelings, as a married woman she'll be being disloyal to her husband.
I think this is her way of keeping her feelings in check. By staying away from Armaan and by being not so friendly with him she's ensuring that she does not become weak and give in to her feelings for him. This is just a facade she has put on now.
She did this earlier too during the whole cupid track when she was being rude to him for no reason and we reacted the same way then. But in the garden when she broke down she confessed that her anger was a facade, that she was not angry at Armaan but at herself for letting him and his love down and for getting all of them into this situation.
I think something similar is happening now too. (this is just my POV I might be wrong)
All said and done I agree that her behavior right now is totally uncalled for. I hope the CVs give a suitable justification for this soon because otherwise they are just making her look really bi****.
But till then though I hate Riddhima Modi, I would like to give BASKET the benefit of doubt.
After all she was Armaan's BASKET once upon a time. She is what made Armaan the man we love so much today and most importantly she is one half of the eternal Armaan-Riddhima jodi and I will always love her for that.
Basket is in there. We just need to get her back. 😃
