For me,Jassi is the most human character on tv today.She is intelligent,ambitious but emotional and naive.Her responses to any given situations are so beleivable.They are not always right,she is not the epitome of 15th centuries virtues but she is definitely more assertive with ppl she feels close to but most of the time she is cluelesss around those who ill treat her...........by the way Purab PIG did deserve the way she treated him.........first he never objected and in fact it never even registered to him because he did not even care to mention it in the cowardly parting letter he wrote......

When she is in her cabin she may have inadvertently heard things not meant for her, but that could not be helped. However, she deliberately eavesdrops a bit too often - especially when Armaan and Malika are having their personal talks it is none of Jassi's business. But like Minnie said Jassi is not perfect - she is human, and this is one of her flaws.

BTW How is it that this understanding of human nature was lacking when it came to Purab reading pages of a diary that was in part accidental and in part deliberate?

There are some people who feel very strongly about privacy issues and I respect their opinions, which is what I assumed was the reason for their being so severe in their criticism of Purab's diary reading. Therefore when I'd read about Jassi deliberately overhearing Armaan-Malika conversations (and not just once) in the updates, and even opening the package from Raj that clearly had Armaan's name on it I expected a tirade - coz that is a clear invasion of privacy. And was very surprised when not only was there not a huge outcry, but also some attempts at justification. I guess in that case the problem was not the diary reading, but the diary reader???


(I personally do not approve of someone reading someone else's diary, just as I do not approve of being "nosey" and listening to private conversations, no matter how much I like the offender. To me they are both wrong -- but very human weaknesses. A huge difference between that and flying planes thru tall buildings and causing mass casualties.)

Well I suppose it is also human nature to somehow overlook or justify the transgressions of those whom we like, and yet be unforgiving when they are committed by someone we hate. Guess that is our human flaw.

If we can forgive "fictional" characters for being "human" why not human beings? 😊

Very well summed up in a point and answred your own question as well.And no,her flaw wasn't overlooked.In fact she was wrong and her manners are awful.That's why she got to know what she did and she doesn't even have a clue that it doesn't even hold good anymore........But just as we don't start to love someone we hate for any reason just on the basis of their good qualities alone ,flaws in our loved ones don't make us hate them instantly......we are naturally more accepting of the flaws of our loved ones and yet for the same type of a flaw in someone else not in our favorite list can be unacceptable to us..........

Case in point ..........A child hitting another child........If the child who is hitting is yours,justifications readily spring on your lips (oh ! he's a bit hyper...he didn't mean it...he was just playing etc etc) but if it's ur child who's getting the hit,the other child instantly becomes a mean demon who is uncontrollable & whose parents are the worst of their kind .blah blah blah.....

Wrong Chayya......it is a personal attack when, to defend some fictional character, anyone points fingers at another member......in this case I think Allegra is USING Minnie's justification abt Jassi's behavior to validate Purab's reasons for the diary episode.......

hope that answers ur question.......
