Hello everyone, yes its me again and I am a bit low especially after the watered down episode we had today. There was not need to drag todays episode, given the fact that the CV's are rushing with this wedding track 😕.
I have been reading a few posts on IF and outside IF and have a lot of people judging, misjudging and over judging Chandini. I am doing none of the above as I do not like Chandini at the moment. Post the baby track. Full stop. !!! 😡
But since I have read some amazing posts trying explain her character as well as actions,as well as had a good whack up my backside by my good friend Sharada 😆, who wanted me to empathise and sympathise with Chandini. I decided to make a post and throw this question to this forum to help me please 😃!!! , so I can better understand Chandini.😉
Okay here are my points of grievances so please read them and explain and clarify to your best ability. Let me warn you that I am not someone who is easily convinced, but nevertheless I am someone who once convinced will stick to it with full conviction. I believe in a healthy debate , so please let us keep this discussion as a healthy as possible to discuss are differences and POV on this character.
Please note I am only speaking about Chandini ( and not about Shivani, so wud really appreciate if you didnt make personal remarks on Shivani. I love Shivani to bits and I think she is portraying this character beautifully 👍🏼)
Okay , so here we go
Chandini is a broken soul herself. : Okay I am willing to give her that. She has had a lot to deal with with her dad, mum ,stepmum , Dev and above all with Meghu recently while having to deal with her own kidnapping trauma and PTSD.
Chandini loves Aday : No I dont think she loves him , tho she is attracted towards him and is confused why. She is clearly torn between her love for Dev and her attraction for Advay, Dont blame her coz Advay is way ttooo hottt to handle😳 !! HEHE😉
Chandini trusts Advay : No , I don't think she trusts him. Chandini is the only person who knows Advay has or had multiple passports and multiple ID's which he destroyed right in front of her eyes. So practically one wud only assume that any person who is hiding his ID shud be fraught with caution. 😲
Also Advay has made it clear he wants to ruin her family and Chandini will do kuch bhi for her family, hence why , she will want to stay away from him. Also I read somewhere that Advay only speaks the truth to chandini, I disagree on that too, coz Advay hasn't first of all told his reality to her. ( AKA abt DEV ) , also Advay always puts Chandini in trouble with her family,
He lied blatantly that she had called him to rescue her when in reality he had called her ( how I know, I replayed the epi, and Chandinis phone rings after she cuts the call to Indrani, so Advay called her for sure, but lied about it easily). Hence why she says to him ki aap , jhoot bol rahe hai, please dont lie.
He also lies about the fact that they are in love in front of her family, when they clearly are not. So as far as Chandini is concerned Advay is a dishonest man with dishonest intentions only here to dishonor and defame her family name.
Chandini decided to give the baby away and did Meghu a favor : Seriously this is a sore topic for me, I don't even want to discuss this , coz no matter how much you try to convince me on this, I don't think I am going to budge.
What Chandini did was the ultimate betrayal IMO , to Meghu but more so to a 1 day old baby, given the fact that she too is an almost orphan , who doesn't have a mother and has a father only for namesakes.
If she really want to do a favor, she cud have convinced Meghu to make this decision in a rational and sensible way. Mind you only convinced not pressurised. But no she had done neither and has decided to decide for her sister and has sealed the fate of an innocent child in the process.
I am not so upset that the baby was given up to an orphanage as we do hear and read about many such stories and it sad really that our society is responsible for such heartless decisions. But what annoyed me was the fact that she decided on behalf of Meghu and didn't even give meghu a chance to decide the fate of her own child, so much so that Meghu doesn't even know her baby is alive, so she hasn't even held her baby to her bosom.
Now this is simply too much for me to handle, SORRY !!! I am not a mother yet , but still I feel so strongly on this point, I am sure a lot of our IF members who are mothers wud have cringed at what Chandini has done to Meghu. Is there a redemption from this, I clearly dont think there shud be one, but I am willing to give her a chance as she too is a broken soul owing to her need to see her mummy happy.
So above are my points , the ones that I can think of at the moment,
TBH the only thing that I have come to believe about Chandini till now, is that Advay somehow manages to bring out the worst or maybe the best in Chandini.
He manages to challenge her and make her do and say things that are actually out of her character. Or maybe not, maybe this is how she is, a bold strong confident girl who has lost her voice owing to Mummy and her manipulations,
But Advay manages to crack that Sati savitri image and lets her be who she truly is, I believe only in Advays presence Chandini becomes her own person and fights him back , just like how she used to when she was still a child and was unaware of the ways of the world.
Hence maybe why she is attracted towards him, as she is her true self only when with him, Hence why she cries when he is hurt and feels comfortable with him to discuss the trauma of her abduction. Advay helps us stand on her own feet as well as stand up for herself, She is now standing up to him but soon will find her voice to actually stand up to Indrani too one day i think.
So guys the above are my points of grievances towards Chadnini along with my assumptions of her character so far.
So please advise and suggest your thoughts and assumptions on this matter so I can finally begin to see her with a renewed sense of faith and finally manage to sleep well at night HEHE😆
Cheers, Chitra
