I am very upset about the way yesterday's flashbacks were conveyed. But as Echo, Indrani and so many others have mentioned would chalk it down to poor direction and editing. Do not want to take away the cvs efforts for the way they have moved this story.
It was only yesterday that I was thinking... how strong Shraman's love really is and how nothing could break them apart. Then comes today's episode and I am left wondering how Sumo is even going to be able to love / support this MCP man child. Kudos to the CVs for managing to do this...
Shravan, this man is a product of bad parenting. His father was selfish enough to demean his mom in front of him and his mom for reasons unknown abandoned him. Though both parents loved Shravan their love was twisted and selfish. They cared the most for themselves than for their child. Ramnath does not want his wife working and his son to be with him. Instead of nurturing the broken boy he promptly packs him off to London. Seriously bad!!
For the young Shravan, Sumo was his only ray of hope and sunshine. But they had their own nightmares to get past. Sumo unlike Shravan is from a loving family before fate took away her parents. But she has only happy memories about them.
Yesterday it was very clear that there is definitely love between Shraman. BUT that love alone will not be enough for them to surmount their emotional hurdles.
Sumo did a stupid thing on that marriage talk. But what right did Shravan have to tell everyone in the family about the marriage? Their friendship gave them that right. Both were behaving like kids playing pranks till it got serious. Shravan opened up and it was clear that he hates all women, predominantly because of the picture painted by Ramnath about his mother. As ttt1 mentioned in her post, it does not make sense for Shrvan to hate all women because his mother turned out bad. No logic there...
Then again Shravan has spent time with Sumo and considered her Friendship very important. So how would he think about her? What does he think of his Chachi and Vandy bhabi? No one is perfect, no one is all good. Humans are both good and bad. And all these women and even men have their inherent goodness along with the bad qualities. As Pushkar said Shravan sees what he wants to see.
Will Shravan ever change? Yes! He will only when he is driven to the extreme. His relationship with Sumo has seen extremes because she affects him very deeply. If she is unhappy it does get to him. We saw that in the party and Khosla track. She is the only person he runs to with his problems. She is also the only person who can stand up to him and make him see the right path. Once again, remember in the Khosla track how Shravan's father gave him the easy way out but Sumo steered him again in the right direction. She also does not leave his side and manages to shut Chachi up.
We may see something like that very soon. Shravans words about breaking their friendship isjust 'blaa' and nothing else. He has been without her for 10 years and has always been the one to leave her. We need to see what his reaction would be when she decides to move on. From what we have seen till now, if she ignores him, he always blocks her path and brings her back :). Love or hate he would not let Sumo be..
Once again he would want to change now, to become a better person in front of Sumo's eyes. He may not accept his defects but he WOULD change for her with her support. Sumo's marriage would just be the push for him in that direction. He would soon realize if he does not change then he would loose what matters the most to him and is going to be a very unhappy man, just like his father.
Wewww!!! That was a long post. In my defense, since yesterday's episode I have not been able to stop posting 😆😆 There is so much ranting that need to find vent 😛
