Ghanna you said it all ⭐️ wonderful read 👏
Shravan is still same, I don't see it as a character change, but rather a different shade of him which we are seeing . As I was telling in another post, Human emotions are not one dimensional, or static, they are dynamic and multi layered.. you put someone in a situation, they react to it in a certain way, an amalgamation of how one reacts to different situations in one's life and how sorted he is, becomes is character and not just one situation, one reaction which can seal that person's character .
I like the subtleness with which his character is written, like he thinks women are selfish and manipulative, but he still respects them, doesn't cross line with them. He tries to put them down, with his intellectual sarcastic lines and a fake smile on his face ...(giving flowers to kitty ladies,) but that's harmless.
He was hurt twice by two most important people in his life, both being women. That disappointment, upset,. the judgmental views are all justifiable and reasonable. I wouldn't say he hates women , he doesn't .. but he is being defensive, by making such comments.. like building a wall of defense around himself, trying not to get close to any woman, only to be hurt and left by them later.
Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice shame on me,,, he is pretty much following this, .. he is hurt not once, but twice.. shouldn't he be careful and cautious ? Atleast when riding a bike,. I make sure to be safe than sorry .. after falling couple of times initially.. He doesn't want to be supposedly get fooled by woman again and again , he is safeguarding himself from any incurring future disasters or pain or humiliation or heartbreaks .
And I personally feel , it's justifiable, knowing Shravan, he has everyone, but at the same time he has no one to support him.. in such situations he has to safe guard himself and that is what he is doing .. when he said he doesn't want to get married... and had they left the matter there.. we wouldn't have witnessed this side of his.. but family members still tried to persuade and convince him into marrying which triggered his bottled up emotions.. he has to give the actual reason for his denial .. and the straightforward person he is , he said it all in one go .
This extreme, opinions of Shravan regarding women is all sudden, shocking and something new for us, but the situation in which he is at the moment is also new for him.. . Even in the past, with Urvashi,, he compared her to his mom and left.. ..but this time around,.. it was triggered by Suman, hence the reaction is even more profound .
For me, it's just another layer to Shravan's character.., which was shown until, but came out in certain situation. Just like we are not the same self in all situations.. and react differently to different situations ... so did he and that doesn't make it his base character. .. it rains only in monsoons... not before , not after.. this side of him is shown only now, not earlier, not later and we have to experience all seasons.. ermm all situations in these characters .
