it is a differing POV
But Rima, didn't you see that Sheetal refused to play and was about to leave when Arnav goaded her and then Aarav forced her to participate. If he had kept his mouth shut at that time, Sheetal would have left. Besides, it was a family outing planned by his wife to spend time with him. How much time did he spent with his wife?
Smiling at a friend or teasing her is not wrong, but is Sheetal his friend? Then why shout at Khushi for letting her stay? Khushi also thought Sheetal was his friend. And if he thinks that the situation will be awkward with his ex, then he should have maintained his polite host courtesy.
Secondly, he showed his caring when he said that she will be hurt, but that was after goading Sheetal into joining the game.
Now you may say that he is oblivious and clueless, but that doesn't excuse the fact that he, in spite of knowing Khushi's insecurities regarding Sheetal, is purposefully ignoring them.
If he had hugged Khushi or just tenderly touched her face or just looked into her eyes, it would have made her insecurity much much less. But he ignored her completely the entire time.
Any woman will feel insecure if her husband goads his ex into joining and spends the entire time teasing and bantering with her and completely ignores or throws irritated/embarrassed glances at his wife. Forget even saying thank you for arranging this outing for him. So I agree, we will have to agree to disagree on that.
