For sure, but isn't that where we find his character changing. He may not be conforming to conventional society, but he sure isn't turning his back on them. And that's where the complexity of his character lies for. He's caught in this constant battle between self vs society - I find it fascinating
He respects ppl for their ideologies and doesn't force them on others but expects other to respect his.. But in case of his di and Khushi-he loves being pushed,loves being included in their circle ..that is why he respects their conventions .it is a matter of being loved and belonging
