IMO, her view on violence is shaped by Sethji, who told Kunwar that, ' Those days of settling disputes with the swords are over and it's time to resolve issues thr' dialogues".
Ranaji, is trained to fight just wars and has said, he'll pick up the sword only for a just cause.He can kill in self defense, and to defend the people and things he loves.
Y'day when he spared Avdesh, i think, he had decided to do that before RGD intervened, just as he spared Wilkie and BRM earlier.
G also knows his capacity to meet violence with violence and she did go out with armed men n picked the knife herself, when she was pushed to defend herself & her husband. She told RNJ the same during BRM track.
RaGa, seems to share the same views on bloodshed, probably have different trigger points.
I'm curious to see how far will G be pushed in this track, before she herself picks up the sword or as many tender hearted heroines have done in stalker movies egg, RNJ to "Kill him .. Kill him"
