We've gone into Gulaal's and Dushyant's mistakes - but look at even MB's decision here. This is a child who has been showing a consistent up graph with the advent of Gulaal - and everyone knows how he literally worships her. No one wonders why there is such a drastic change of attitude in him within a matter of hours or so? Okay, he has a tantrum phase - so you pack him off to a distance so far, that he cannot really fathom 'sharing' whatever is bothering him? Packing off a problem child might as well be a certified means of ensuring he will thereafter never really open up again! Not only has Kesar been a second fiddle in Gulaal's life - but literally for everyone else too, except Vasant, maybe - although in Vasant's case, sometimes its like the whole world has equal priority, people and animals alike! Anyway, MB takes his decisions keeping Gulaal far higher in priority than Kesar himself - and why? Because he can foresee the consequences of a mistake Gulaal has made. So he's not really 'correcting it' but making Kesar suffer in turn. Why? Because Gulaal is not someone they question in that house - certainly not oppose!
I wont say it would have helped Kesar to stay back - but just maybe in time, he could have actually blurted knowing the truth before Gulaal, and not have let the 'wound of betrayal' fester for a decade?
Of course - we may then have not gotten such a complex amazing show to watch - so yes, Kesar can suffer briefly to entertain us 😆
