Great points Debs!
There was Nitya trying to get a job, get a house and support her family. She was fightingcase alone. Not ready to take things lying down. It shows her self reliance and guts. Whereas this man was spineless and dependent from day one!

What has he ever even done for his own family?

Now squandering hard earned money of father and uncle!

He once told Rajnath he was not interested in business. So what was he interested in? Writing love songs?

There is responsibility of kids to grow up and even make their parents realise if they are going wrong. They have to be support to parents also. More so if it is the only son of a widowed mother. Did he ever make Suchitra realise how bullied they both were? Did he ever question her why they lived like this? Did he take a stand or even notice how rude Goenkas were to his mom?

I have seen enough father-less kids in my life. Heck! Even girls become more protective and stronger towards their mother and themselves! And I am talking of middle class families. Not even rich and loaded families like Goenkas.

Even ordinary people know difficulties of poor people in even filing a case let alone fight. But it seems Dev had no idea of this.

Why was he in doubt? Either Goenkas are lying or Mitras were. If he didn't believe Goenkas were lying then it means Mitras were. Why is he close to Payal if he doesn't trust her and isn't sure whether she lied or not?
He knows Shaurya is a bad guy. He knew how childlike Payal was. Still no doubts?

He was afraid to talk case details at coffee shop with Gautam as he felt they could be spied upon. Why did he make the call to lawyer in open then? Where was his fear of being overheard? Why didn't he know someone chased his car to Payal's house?

He suffered two murder attempts after Shaurya threatened him. Yet he couldn't join dots even in private? He is this bullied that he cannot even think to himself?

Has he ever mustered guts to counter Rajnath and ask why doesn't he ask Shaurya to think of ghar ki izzat when he makes mistakes?

He is ingratiated to Goenkas in other matters but not when he squanders their shares?

He sent Gautam to another city to make him safe yet was never careful himself or took care of Payal's safety?

Rajnath brushed it aside when he talked of rape case. Brushed aside investigation of attacks on him. Still it didn't ring a bell with Dev? He found nothing fishy?

Sorry. What to talk of action on others or investigation? We have not even seen him think to himself correctly! No one stopped him from thinking! He is not that much of a puppet.

Agreed Debs this is pathetically a male centric society where even women keep treating males as babies and try to rationalise the blunders and shortcomings of a male. A man is an overgrown baby who needs constant mothering even if he fails to use basic common sense! That explains apologist stance for every man. And every action/non action of his.

Thanks Dey and Fieryheart for putting forth your points. There are lot of valid points in your arguments. Especially on the protected part. yes Dev had a protected life. I had earlier also put that Dev is not looking inward but trying to find fault with everything outside. When he was doing that there was no frustration in him because fault was outside just shout around telling this happened because of x, y things. Frustration is coming only when he looks inside, when that finger is pointing at him. When he says he has lived for others it means he took some wrong decisions thinking they were right. The more he thinks the more finger will point towards him only. And it is better he realizes what he has done than Durga tell him you are responsible for Payal's condition. Because self realization may be tough but that is the only way out for Dev.
Coming to acceptance of marriage with Durga yes it is time Dev wake up to that part. To the world he is Durga's husband now. No one is expecting him to start a marital life as such. But he has to learn that in front of society they are man and wife now. It cannot be simply wished away. Nithya if she was a different girl would never agree to marry a man who plans to dump his wife. That shows he is not trustworthy.
@Anu whenever I put analysis for Dev don't think I am justifying him. I am not in the first place. There is a lot of difference between analysis and justification. Justification means I agree with what Dev is doing, analysis means I am just trying to understand that character. Why that person behaves in a certain fashion. What could have been the reason. I could never agree to the fact that he was away for 2 years and came up suddenly claiming love for Nithya and thought with a locket and song he can get her. I had wanted him to fail. Since I am getting that failure I am fine with it. I had expected him to go in self destructive mode. He is going. I guess some other post I mentioned he only needs a bottle to become Devdas because he is so much clinging to the past and thinks that if Nithya comes everything is corrected.
And self destructive mode of Dev is very much necessary for the story because unless he does that no one else will try to bring him out of his protective cocoon. He needs to come out of the protective cocoon to fight. For that this self destruction and self realization is the only way out. It has to reach the nadir. Failure, failure and more failure. Let his inheritance, relations everything go down the drain. Let him stand alone , face the reality and accept that he is a failure only then change will happen to him.

Dev's character is the faultliest one that I have seen in soapworld. That too for a hero he is fantastically dumb. He knew ab the rape case in US ,if Nithya meant so much to him why did he never bother to pick up the phone and call her???!!! I mean is email the only way to contact her, Nithya didn't know his no. But he knew her phone number didn't he...he was shown as vague,random guy who apparently spent every waking moment with Nithya but was too dense to realise his love or tell her he loved her.
Even now he is in fron of her 24/7 and yet fails to feel his Nithya around...I mean he chants her name 24 hrs a day, he grew up with her and he can't feel her presence? Instead he keeps yelling at Durga!
A person who is educated in US thinks the only way to get money is to sell his shares? He knows raj nath made a deal with lawyer and yet thinks he can sell his shares and rajnath won't know it.
He is like a child who wants something and will keep sulking,whining till he gets it. Heck even his mom. Sounds better than him

First of all welcome to the forum.
With due respect, what you call negativity I call it criticism. We are not haters or bashers. We are just fans of different kind.

The forum has all sorts of posts, praise, fun posts, analysis, daily analysis, criticism.
It is not merely negative.

And asking questions, debating and criticism is not bashing or negativity.

We expected something, saw potential hence asked questions.

The opinion expressed is in good faith as well wishers.
