let me share my pov..
If I were Aastha, I would be devastated that my hubby chose his father over me,, especially since they recently declared their love to each other.. I would be majorly p.o'd .. likely to give him a kick in the arse .
From Shlok's p.o.v.. he is clueless to Baba's evil action... Baba is his idol who does not wrong ever, baba showers him with lots of love and understanding.. how could he hurt baba's feeling? I get that.. As a child, I love my parents would chose them over anyone else in a heart beat.. probably faster than Shlok chose CEB.
from a parent's pov ...- While I would not dream of asking my child to choose between his two loves.. however I would be honored if I am chosen over someone else- yes.. I'm being selfish... I would be hurt if my child chose someone over me.
what a complicated situation... and hope none of us have to endure this situation ever.. but .. If there were no other resolution,, Shlok made the right choice, just wish he had ponder it a bit longer. 😳
