I don't hate Malini, she just bores me. That's my main issue. She has zero entertainment value and I don't know about you but I watch tv shows to be entertained. There have been so many terrible, vampy, evil tv characters that I have absolutely loved to watch. So, characters don't have to be overly sweet and flawless (which no doubt Malini is and yes the actress is beautiful, there's no question about that) for me to love them. They need to be interesting. They have to have different shades to them and I'm sorry to say but the writers are doing everything to make Malini completely unrelatable and give her the most unrealistic ideals. Her expectation of Aditya to be just as flawless as she is, is why he always seems to have emotional block around her. Every time he has even dared to show frustration (triggered by Imlie) in front of her, she has acted all fragile and then lectured him on how perfect their married life needs to be. "Promise me this...promise me that" sheesh give it a rest. 😵
All of the above is why I love Imlie and ship Adilie. Imlie is entertaining as a stand-alone character. She has substance, she’s beautiful inside and out…and most importantly she has FLAWS which she never holds back. And it’s because of her that we actually see different shades of Aditya. He isn’t pressured to be perfect around Imlie. Heck I feel the main reason he used to roar at Imlie is because he has never been allowed to be anything but the perfect robotic sugar-coated gentleman in front of Malini which explains that incredible moment when he asked himself WHY he loses control of himself when Imlie is in front of him. Imlie brings out every emotion in him and it’s around her that I see an Adi who dares to step out of his comfort zone. Case in point...that scene when Malini imagined Aditya's response to being invited to fly kites. She very confidently imagined he'd be uptight and reject that (you telling me for 7 YEARS you couldn't get him to do anything fun? I mean COME ON 😆 ). Change scene over to real Adi in Pagdandiya taking up the kite strings to accept the challenge thrown by his Jhalli wifey. Being able to share every part of yourself, good and bad, with your partner and receive that acceptance is the real essence and foundation of a lasting relationship. I only see that quality in Adilie not Adoon.
So yeah…sorry not sorry Malini. 🤪
