Although Pakhi's actions seem to show her obsessed over Virat thereby portraying her in a bad light she is a victim over here.
The one that loved her sacrificed their love for his brother and family. On the other hand the one who married her left her on the altar without even hearing her explanation leaving her all alone in a new place with a few people who are hostile to her. Her only support system is Virat who is also far away from her.
In the tamil version when Samrat returns she asks him and the other family members some pertinent questions.
Like how most of the audience thinks negatively only about pakhi and not about Virat she asks the family members why only she is seen as the bad one while Virat is seen as a victim although they both were equally wrong and both sacrificed their love. Also she asks Samrat why he decided to leave her without even seeking her side of the story and her explanation for not telling him the truth.
I hope the hindi makers follow the tamil version post Samrat's entry instead of the original bengali version where Samrat dies halfway through. whereas in the tamil version Samrat and Pakhi realise their mistakes and have a happy ending to their story.
Hai Tulasi, I haven't watched the Tamil version but at least in this hindi show named 'Ghum hai kisi ke pyaar mein' I don't think Pakhi's actions can be justified.
Even before Virat asked Pakhi to sacrifice and marry his brother, Pakhi and her family proceeded with Samrat and family's alliance. During their first meeting Pakhi didn't reveal anything to Samrat about her love affair. Instead she remained silent throughout till her Haldi. Wasn't that cheating? She was even asked to back out if she didn't wish to marry but she did not instead gave her consent for the wedding to take place in 3 days. It's not that Samrat and family forced her into this relationship. During her Haldi she saw Virat and then after knowing what happened she wanted to reveal the truth to elders and marry Virat. She would have married Samrat if Virat didn't appear before her but since she met Virat she wanted to proceed with him. Clearly we can see nothing but selfishness!
And also what kind of love is that!? In scenario 1 she was in love with Virat. In scenario 2 she couldn't trust Virat and blocked his number. This meant she no longer wished to be in contact with him. Love disappeared here. Trust is nowhere to be seen. In Scenario 3 she moved on to marry Samrat but didn't reveal any of the details from her past affair. In scenario 4 she confronted Virat, got to know what happened and wanted to break the marriage alliance with Samrat and marry Virat. In scenario 5 she married Samrat, entered as Samrat's wife and took promise from Virat that he wouldn't see any other girl all his life.
It's not that she's in love with Virat throughout right from their first meeting. Her feelings kept changing.
Also we all here agree with the point that Virat was stupid enough to request Pakhi to marry his brother despite knowing it's only an arranged marriage setting and he will always be criticized for that. Leave Pakhi he has ruined his brother Samrat's life, by taking this decision, who has nothing to do with and was unaware of all this nonsense.
Whatever reason, how appropriate it is to keep the person whom you are going to get married unaware of your past affair? I have seen people in real world too do the same thing. At some point in their life they get married keeping their spouse in dark about their previous relationship(s). That's fine if your partner too had his/her own set of relationships and didn't reveal anything to you. Still it's not a good thing for both the sides if they are aiming for a long lasting happy marriage. But what about people like Samrat who believe and get married in the arranged setting? What mistake they have exactly done to suffer such cheating? Pakhi didn't want to proceed with the wedding NOT because she was feeling guilt for cheating Samrat or due to some thoughtfulness about his life and future but just because she found Virat and he cleared her misunderstanding. So why anyone else? Samrat is just an use and throw tissue paper. Why should we expect someone to marry a person who doesn't trust them. It was Pakhi who couldn't trust Virat and blocked his number in haste and decided to move on with another person. So why should Virat feel obliged to marry her? He should definitely have told the truth to his family members not for the sake of marrying Pakhi but to save Samrat from this weird situation. Seeing a person for 2-3 days and liking him/her is different from having love and trust for someone. For Pakhi it's the first case. Her relationship with Virat wasn't that deep. It's clearly shown that she couldn't trust him. She regretted when she came to know the truth. Her guilt of losing him due to her own mistake has turned into obsession. That's why she demanded him not to see any other girl all his life and remain only hers'.
Overall how she's a victim over here?? I don't understand.
