Ppl have been targeting the director, Pushkar, in Twitter for sidelining Radhika in the last clip.. He is at the receiving end for favoring Sam over Radz, not jus in the last episode but whenever he directed earlier too..

I thought so too that Ardhika esp Radz were quite sidelined at the end but then again we got the awesome first half dedicated to them so I really didn't care😛.

Also Monica loves Pushkar. Basically counts him as her guru lol. So I doubt he would do it on purpose. But its most likely the editing table that got to it. But who knows Lol!

And I tried watching the beginning episodes. I couldn't really get in to it because it was promoted as a Radhika show but in reality you got Sam and her issues. I always saw Radhika as a side character in the beginning and Sam as the lead. And it was not entertaining at all. Because Radhika as character was really cute and funny and made me laugh! I loved her dada ji talks. Mere dada ji hamesha kehte teh..😆And I just could not click with Sam and Arjun. Something was just odd about them. And Sam use to treat Neil really badly in the beginning. Like Sam use to be everything for Neil but it wasn't the same for Sam. I'm just glad the way everything turned out especially Ardhika getting married!

I agree with @foresight here ....

1. We know one thing for certain during this scene: Arjun had accepted Radhika as his wife in every sense. Everything he did and said proved that. He did not like Radhika to even talk about disrespecting herself to keep him away from Sam - and it hurt him so much that he had to take her aside to talk some sense into her. Sigh - he tells her in that gentle manner how she didn't need to dress as such to keep her husband by her side. And that answer by Radhika "jo cheez meri nahi us ko rakhne ka irada bhi nahi" - OUCH! The way Radhika said those words reminded Arjun of that "himmat & haisyat" dialogue - hence he told her "Tum kuch nahi jaanti ho. Kuch bhi nahi jaanti". He was talking about everything. Not just that she doesn't know what he meant by Mrs Mehra (which she took as Sam even though he was implying her), but pre / post marriage everything between them ... i mean think about it - Nandini had to tell Radhika how the latter felt for her to realize she was in fact in love. If she can't realize her own feelings, how can she ever know Arjun's feelings for her ... that is why he said "tum kuch nahi janti ho" .. he knows she is a very 'seedhi saadhi' girl and beyond her bubble of righteousness has no clue about the kind of reality that lurks. Imagine if it wasn't Arjun she had gotten married to save Sam - what if it was a bigger jerk than Saral - do you think he would care about her anything?! No ... see Arjun being the older and experienced understands this so he was basically telling her everything in those simple words. I mean this is the girl who stumbled and some random creep had to help her ... and while she said Thank you, he decided to feel her up. If Arjun hadn't intervened, i am sure that guy would have tried to grope her or more. And the hubby here in those little words was summing up everything he has come to understand about Radz. She is too innocent to realize anything beyond the good that she sees! Further, she is too naive to understand how Arjun feels for her... so it was basically everything!

2. Arjun has never considered himself a good person. He has been trained by Nandini to think the worst of himself so he can be the worst to those who hurt his Nandu. 15 years of indoctrination - full of pain and hatred ... Arjun was nothing short of a jerk and rude a$$ when he came to BS. He knows ALL the crap he has pulled ... the worst for him recently was how he had seduced Sam out (after marriage) to ask her our on a date... and then tried to call his wife's patni-dharam bluff by challenging her. In all this mess, Nandini gives him the divorce papers and he almost breaks right there / then. He is tired of being the horrible person Nandini had trained him to be ... he just wants to be himself. Reflecting over all his misdeeds, which are many, Arjun considers himself to be worse than scum. Radhika on the other hand, sees beyond the facade of Arjun - she always had! And when she realized the truth about Arjun being brainwashed by Nandini since he was a young child... she knew the real Arjun is that boy who doesn't want to see anyone in pain or tears .. the boy who would do everything to return the smile on their loved ones. Further, she noticed time and again how Arjun saved her. From the get-go... covering her up with dupatta, taking her to the hospital (blowing off Sam in process), saving her from Saral many times, her pallu on fire, taking her away from Sam's insults, and then saving her mom when Nandu had planned to kill her! Radhika knew Arjun wasn't the horrible person Nandini wanted him to be. That despite her awful upbringing, he still had a lot of good in him. The last straw was he didn't take advantage of her when he easily could have - and she was ready to (despite being petrified of it all) ... he saw how uneasy she was and stopped ... telling all he did about "if your heart's not in it ... woh aadmi hi kya jo zabardasti kare" ... went on to put her cushion wall between them. After everything, she said "Ek baar aap khud ki meri nazar..."! The only reason she went along with his dare of becoming a wife in the fullest sense was because she knew in her heart, he would never cross that line. She had this blind faith in him ... and that trust she had in him made her say those words to Arjun.
