First of all let me tell you,you've written and explained everything beautifully like always. I agree with almost everything that you've written and would try to present my pov on how i see KrishVeer's situation as of now.😳
Almost every ITV show's female lead is betrayed by their male counterparts but none has been this painful. Never has a character's betrayal affected me or taken me to my past the way Krishna did. She reminded me of me 10 years ago. I could relate to the betrayal, to the lost trust on everyone, to the hurt and to the pain. She wasn't angry, no she wasn't - she was betrayed - she felt used - she felt dead within. A betrayal from your loved one destroys you. It changes you as a person within seconds. If you can't relate to any of this, I am happy for you! I truly am - because then you have never been betrayed by the person you have trusted the most. The person you had hoped from, the person who gave you dreams, a reason to live, a reason to smile. Krishna was betrayed.
She was bailed out by the man who was against her happiness, she knew that. She refused to take his help. But then, he presented the case in a way that she had no choice but to listen. Did she believe him then? No, she didn't. She didn't believe him, even with all the evidence she did not believe him. She went asked Veer - had Veer said no, she would have given him a chance to explain and she would have believed Veer. Had Veer not been found near the international airport, with a ticket in his pocket - she would have listened to him. But his yes' changed all of that.
@Bold i agree! his one yes has changed everything for them.But don't you think she could've given him half a min if not a full minute to say his version? Granted that everything was pointing at him(even Veer understood that and acted accordingly).Granted from her pov had she given him even half a minute he would've woven a new lie and try to manipulate her with it.I completely get that and i've absolutely no problem with how she reacted coz like you said when you are betrayed by the very person you trusted with your everything it is a big blow and naturally your mind won't be in a right state to think straight.(you know it better than i do since i'ven't gone through one *touchwood* but you did and i'm sorry that you did.) but if we think about a similar event( i.e when she was drugged and veer didn't believe her) if i remember it correctly, he still gave her a chance to explain her version when she come upto him with the evidence.He listened to her even if it was with a preconceived notion but he did listen to her! He had no reason to trust her back then but here Krishna had all the reason to trust him.yes she did trust him over everything else before His yes but i wish she would've given him that half a minute to explain himself coz unlike veer she had a reason to trust him.there is a reason why she fell in love with him right?if she could show her absolute trust in him during the false medicine thing and was so sure that veer could never do it and was so sure that he was framed by shukla then why couldn't she think the same in this case even if it was for a split seconds? If radhey meant her everything so did Veer's london dream back then to him.If she could expect him to listen to her back then,then why couldn't she allow him to speak now?
Veer had given her hope, a new life and new dreams - he had rekindled her dreams of being a doctor and then, just like that, everything was taken away. A simple yes, took it all away... Years ago that one phone call changed my life. Did I call and confirm? Yes, I did. But that one yes, destroyed everything. Just like it destroyed everything for Krishna. Nothing else mattered. No explanations. Nothing.
Ishani, you have been complaining about lack of communication, and to a logical, cooler mind this all sounds simpler - but in real life, when the person closest to you betrays you, no communication works. Krishna did not trust on Shukla. She listened to him and then gave Veer a chance to say no. You say she should have listened to him completely - maybe she should. But would that change anything for her - absolutely not! Why? Because no explanation changes anything - how is she supposed to trust him now. Any word he utters could be a lie to protect himself. Hell, how can she be certain he actually loved her. The evidence pointed against Veer, he was found near the international airport with a ticket in his pocket, he did vanish from the lawyers meeting and was not to be found, he did lie to her about the accident, he was having dreams about him killing someone, his mother did beg her to accept the crime she had not committed. No, she did not trust Shukla, but she cannot, now, trust Veer too. You say she should have gone to meet him once, she should have listened to him - looking from her perspective - how does she now he is not manipulating her, again? She knows he has emotional power over her and she does not want to trust him again - or anyone else.
yes i agree that even if she had given him a chance to explain nothing probably would've changed. But this explanation definitely would've given her a few things to think about like say it would not 've her doubt his love for her,it would've made her think that maybe there was some truth to what he was saying,it would've given her the truth that He was the one that collected those very evidence she was believing just so that he can turn himself to the law and tell her everything.and maybe it would've given her a reason to doubt shukla and sunaina or maybe not who knows.
the ticket should've been rang a bell. I mean knowing shukla she should've given him a benefit of doubt. if he was really running away then why would she find him at the middle of the road? And how conveniently she forget the part where he told his mother that he wanted to tell her everything.Hopefully,she'll think about these in the future.
Veer did have a chance to say the truth - in the court. He could've explained it to the judge. Krishna was sitting there, she would've heard him - but Veer did realize that it would look like he is saving himself, protecting himself. So he did not even say it to the court. At least, the running away part could've been cleared in the court. Veer did have a chance to explain, even if it was an indirect chance.
yes i wish he at least he cleared the part where she accused him of knowing everything and marrying her.But then again like you said anything he'd 've said would only look like he was trying to protect himself. For him at that moment it was far more important to let her know that he truly loved her and he didn't betray her more than explaining the whole thing and hence his repeated "i love you"/"i love her..."
You then question, the factor of trust. I agree with most that had their relationship been given some time the trust would have grown stronger - but remember, although trust can grow stronger with time yet, it could be broken as easily. It does not matter if the yes' had come 10 years later, or now. Trust was broken. The only savior of this trust would have been Veer's confession - and that too on time. He had plenty of time to confess - he could have talked to her during the meeting with the lawyer - or when he came to see her at midnight - or when he went running to his mother- he could have confessed to her. It would have changed things. She would have listened to him, would've been angry too but wouldn't have felt betrayed!
agree. but like in the case of krishna where she couldn't think straight after knowing the truth likewise, veer couldn't think straight after realizing he was the one who was behind all her miseries and so he went to his mother who is/was his closest confidante,who knew about this matter.The moment he realized the gravity of the situation he straightway went to confess to krishna. about the midnight,this i don't know why he walked away...probably because he was too ashamed to face her.idk.
This betrayal has changed her (or will post leap). Her emotions will be guarded now, she'll be scared to feel, she'll be hard, she'll not be able to trust anyone again - at least for a long long time, and she'll be focused - focused on herself and her career.
This track also showed Krishna's weakness - her unguarded emotions. It was her emotions that she forgave Shuklain for everything, it was her emotions that made her trust Shukla and sign the papers, and it was her emotions that made her eat the drugged prasad when she was to meet Veer at the airport.
When the betrayal is revealed, it kills all your emotions. That's what happened with Krishna too. Today, when she refused to accept anything from Shuklain and Shukla, even Radhay's name could not soften/ weaken her today.
She has changed. She has finally recognized her weakness and has buried her emotions now. The betrayal has changed her.
The common assumption is that once the truth is revealed post leap, Krishna will be guilty. My question is what truth exactly? That Veer was not running away, that he still loved her - the fact remains he did kill Radhay. He did hide the accident truth. Nothing changes that. Yes, Krishna will be partially guilty, but this truth is the only thing that will heal her. I look forward to her healing!
to answer you, truth about everything that you've mentioned.mio she has made peace with radhey's death. she is more heartbroken over what veer did to her than the actual death. she is guilty for loving and marrying the man who has killed her late husband.She thinks he has betrayed her and pretended to love her...knowing the truth will make her realize that the man she has fallen in love with hasn't betrayed her and he genuinely loved her and was brave enough to collect all the necessary evidences to punish himself for the crime that he has committed .this wouldn't probably change anything much but like you've said it'll heal her.It will give her the peace that the man she thought was a coward wasn't a coward after all.
