Thanks Sunny.
Im not saying he doesnt feel anything for her.
He does have lots of hidden and genuine feelings for her.
But he's not technically in love.
He doesnt realise the extent and depth of his own feelings.
Thats because his feelings havent been tested till now.
He thinks that since she loves him he shld do a favour by loving her back too.
Love never does any favour.
It also means sacrifice...had he been techinally in love...he wld have let her win the challenge or wld have wanted to spend some quality time with her all alone.
But he was more interested in winning the challenge and fighting with her.
But I feel once she rejects him he'll start taking things more seriously.
And maybe then he'll start realising the depth of his feelings for her.
Mohini...I'll agree that he doesn't know what love is and he doesn't know what he feels for Veera is love...but that doesn't mean he doesn't love her. He does. 😃
Love isn't about doing favours...his whole zimmedari speech doesn't make sense to us to Baggi...or even to Ballu...he just isn't willing to change his tune cuz his ego is hurt...he wouldn't be doing her favour by agreeing to marry her, he would be doing himself a favour...and he's not too far from realizing that this is his main reason for pursuing this! She's said it many times that she doesn't want to marry him...he'll realize soon enough that he isn't pursuing this just cuz of his jimmedari to her but because he really wants it for himself!
As for sacrifices...yes love doesn't sacrifice...but winning bets and what not are light hearted fun stuff...if it was something serious then he would sacrifice without a second thought...case in point:
He sacrificed his time and energy, plus his jeep lol...in an effort to stop Veera from boarding that plane to London...he didn't have to do this but he did...even he hasn't realized his true motives for doing this!
Case in point#2: getting on the radio...putting himself out there to get her the help that he thought she needed but since he didn't have the expertise he went to the guy who he thought did!
There are probably others I can't think of right now...but the point is Ballu loves Veera!
Even in his day dreams where she is his wife...we don't see him lording over her at all...he sees her as herself, respects her and envisions caring for her...even at the expense of his own mother...his subconscious is slowly but surely making it's desires known...poor Ballu
