There were three promos, the first promo showed a disappointed Sona not an angry Sona as we see in the segments and promo... It was more of a resigned Sona who was dissapointed in Dev's decision but not hurt and heartbroken. So I was under the impression that the creatives will show a breakup which was mutual which is not the case here so Dev's character here seems weak and really non redeemable

The second Promo showed Sona calling Easwari to inquire about her health- If we see it as Sona being a professional that is ok but her conversations with Dev still showed disappointment and not hurt.

The third promo showed Dev coming to see her and they talking about memories and being cordial but resigned to their fate... so my question is how after the callous breakup by Dev which was nothing but mutual any self respecting woman would forgive ...I know in Love we do forgive but here the very basis of trust seemed to have broken and all promises made by Dev seems empty so how can there be cordiality? and how can we ever justify Sona going back to him. As a woman this is what I am having difficulty coming to terms with.

Thanks again everyone for aiding a very healthy discussion really appreciate it

Lol so true! The samajh jana is indeed washed down with the bottle of pills!

It's a journey of the growth of all 3 characters, individually as well as together.

Sonakshi is definitely going to emerge as the strongest among the 3, that's what I feel as of now. Mostly because she has a support system backing her, something that Dev doesn't and God alone knows how he's gonna deal with his heartbreak. What with rumors of him getting drunk n al doing the rounds. Ishwari will be happy for a while before she realizes the blunder that she's made.

I just hope they show a proper redemption for both Dev and Ishwari instead of showing how mahaan sona is for taking them back. That's my only request. The other things, they're doing it right I feel. Specially after watching the segment. Good decision though, of not watching the segment. They've shown the entire climax😕😲

Finally your post and as usual awesome and on point 👏 Coming home kind of feeling..🤗

Let me share my 2 cents in brief which i have mentioned in replies of diff posts from morning.

Promises...Easy to do & tough to stand by. Dev & Sona - Both made n number of promises to each other. Now the actual test starts for them to check where they actually stand in their relationship wrt their commitment. Looks like now both are going to break their promises and are going to see the actual strength of their relation. Very good. Now start it with a clean slate. Both are going to see the imperfections of their beloved soulmate. Now the Q is Are they still ready to love each other with their imperfections?

Even though its painful, break-up is much needed at this moment. For,

Sona - To gather herself and to learn to see her life beyond Dev and pleasing his family.

Dev - To understand his mom, to know that giving up is never a solution and to learn how to balance relations in life.

Ishwari - To learn to see beyond her ego, pride, position & own happiness.

We - a much needed break from Ishwari ji's emotional athyachar.

Surely the upcoming break-up decision is a big boost for her ego but her ego is like monster which expects constant feeding from Dev. Immediately after break-up Dev may wear a brave mask to make her happy but soon he will break in to pieces bit by bit and loose himself in pain.

I feel only his PAIN can make her THINK about her mistakes because ATM she is just full of herself.

I can't be any more happier than what I am today... Hearing about the breakup (Haven't caught hold of the TV remote yet 😆)... Waiting to watch it filling my eyes and heart with it...

Anyway not much hopes left for Ishwari... So will go with the game the CVs might try to get her back...😉

Never had any expectations from Dev😊... So let him do whatever he wants to do - with his mom or with himself...😃

I just want to see Sonakshi doing good for herself in all this... Getting to see back my girl...🤗

Whether she finds herself back or creates herself newly, all over again... Something gotta be done... Want to see her clothed in strength and dignity👏... Smiling and Laughing without the fear of her future... 👍🏼

Let her live in the moment because...

she has someone to love - A family!🤗

she has some place to go back - A home!

And with both these lovely things, she's the blessed one!!!❤️

Let her blessings be all cherished and celebrated by her...⭐️⭐️

As usual lovely post. I like how you do not focus on critiquing an episode but focus on the story arc.

🤗 Thank you. You are awesome.

Last few episodes were plain distressing so I couldn't get myself to make a post...😃

But now we have reached the end of one phase & the start of another so had to review the journey...

Finally, today an episode that I re-watched. Starting with 'hamare beech mein ab koi nahi aa sakta' & 'will be with you forever' and ending with 'hamein alag ho jana chahiye'... I think my expressions mimicked Sonakshi's when Dev said this...

We all know this was going to happen but have to hand it to the actors for delivering fantastically...

The guy was in shock after hearing that his mother could have had a cardiac arrest because she is not happy with Sonakshi... He is not processing anything else... and he went into his usual Problem-Solution mode.

Doesn't like Sonakshi - Sonakshi out.

When mom gets out of the hospital & all is well, these same words will come back to bite him...

I still remember Shaheer's words from one of his initial press meet audio clip. A reporter asked him "You said Dev doesn't love his mom, He does pooja of his mom & he is a devotee of his mom. What is this means, Can you elaborate?" He said " Dev is the kind of a guy who doesn't think for a sec before removing and throwing away anything from his life if he thinks that its hurting his mom. When it comes to his moms happiness he doesn't think about right or wrong?". I think he is the only one who is still in his character from day one. Nothing brought change in him even now in this aspect, Not even his LOVE but his PAIN will change him for sure now.

Ishwari - I have no words for her but I loved my mom's reaction. All she could see was the Son crying and was so angry. Kept repeating, "what kind of pyar! made her Son cry so much. she used to say, should not hold tight and tree should give shade etc etc...see how badly he is crying"

That was reaction enough 😃😃 Moms are always amazing(Ishwari ji is a rare exceptional case)😆

Sonakshi - Always felt to me that this woman is living in uncertainty & fear from the start. It was like an invisible 'he loves me, he loves me not' going on in her head... and this made her continually try to reach beyond her comfort zone...

Now she finally gets to hear the dreaded words...

@Bold : You are absolutely right. Loving someone and receiving the same from that person is very special & beautiful thing in life but that doesn't mean that you loose your identity in that process.

Dev's first reaction was to break off. (He said he will always be with her)

Sonakshi's first reaction (tomm) will be to scream her hurt (rightfully) and walk off. (She said she will always be with him even if he walks away)...

They both need some time to calm down first and process everything... She is going to scream some more & he is going to pine for her...

When its coming to breaking promises, both are going to maintain equal score by competing with each other. Made for each other. When ever i saw them doing promises to each other, I use to think like Arey..Bas karo yaar...You guys are competing with our politicians in throwing promises.😆

There's quite a distance these 2 need to travel to understand themselves to know what promises they are capable of keeping or if they even want to. These are not just words.

So true. Falling in love is very easy but staying in love is equally tough.

Ishwari - As no one is going to take her to therapy, she needs a harsh reality check. Am not sure how this will happen with everyone feeding her ego.

Dev is going to break but am not even sure if she will really see Dev's pain!

Only if he learns to stand up for himself...but that might be too much to ask given he will always be worried she will overdose if he cuts the umbilical cord...

With this pills drama, she already left a permanent scar on his soul which i dont think even she can heal in future. Now this guy will never share his true emotions with her and will Q million times before even thinking about his happiness in future and gonna shut himself completely.

I always think that only dev's PAIN can open her EYES but she is so full of herself and on top that the never ending bhajan's in Iswari niwas will never allow her to see the reality. Even i am eagerly waiting to see what will make her realize her mistakes?

Just don't give us a moping Devdas... that would be worse than mommy's atyachar 😃 Yes pls.😃

Thank you. 😊

Each episode captures a moment in time and plays with moments too...As for a sequence, it sometimes even moves to the next few episodes and short 22mins don't give me the full view of what they are trying to show. I am more interested in the story, characterization and where they seem to be taking it...
