For the sake of the audience
For the sake of your own damn story.
Leave this character the he** alone.
You are writing her up to dilute her own marriage, her feelings and her relationship with her "husband". Haven't we been through a mockery of a marriage 6 months ago??
You show her to be mature beyond her years in one frame and then a giggly little girl who doesn't tire of playing rasam rasam.
You make her forget what comes first, suhaag raat or phere in one episode and make her give a lesson is roka 101 in another.
You make her wear a mangal sutra and sindoor and then make her say that she is not yet the wife??
By her own admission, she is already his, then how would a ceremony make her "more" his??
Why put her through these contradictions???
Either make it about them, or move on. These contradictions are killing the essence of this story.
She could have asked him for the rituals because they mean something to her, not because of what the lack of them did to a mythological couple that existed in a different time capsule.
He could have given it to her because they meant something to her, not because he was forced into them by caricatures of the loonkind.
The marriage should have been about them, about her, and about the sanctity of the tradition. Not because the Dadi of rukaawats said so, in the most horribly written dialogues to unfold a plot that you still haven't written.
If you need someone to make a mockery, there are enough people waiting on the sidelines. Use them. Please leave Khushi alone. We know and we have seen that she is much much more than what you are projecting currently.
PS. They have shared so many more moments that are more symbolic to their relationship than what you are scripting right now. Everything in the current track pales in comparison to the bandagement & teej fast break. Those moments belonged to them, within the realm of practiced traditions. We saw the meaning in them. Remind them. Remind us.
EDIT -
Nothing compares to these!
