I do not have an issue with this scene as a stand alone scene. Seeing him this way, this was the only way Sona as she has been scripted could react. I am questioning the makers for inserting this scene now simply to shift sympathy to Dev (Arch explained it very well in her post in this thread).

Why should Dev get the mental release of a closure so easily and why should Sonakshi give it to him without him even performing the actions necessary for closure when she was wronged by him?

I will be happy to see a redemption track but they already took most of the thunder out of it by having Sona herself acknowledge that he had no other option. A lot of people on this forum did not feel that he had no other option - he did not even try to explore any option.

She very easily dismissed her family once again. All of us were very pained with this aspect prior to break up and once again she is assuring him that she will manage her family with 0 expectation that he will even think about managing his family.



Well, from my own experiences I feel relationships are always way more complicated to simplify on logic. We often hear a lot of cliched stuff about 'first love'. It's made of the most vulnerable and forgiving selves of two people. So Sonakshi reacting to Dev the way she did and bringing about a closure is something very close to reality according to me. To move ahead in her own life, it is absolutely necessary for Sonakshi to keep Dev away from her and that's what she did for herself and Dev today. And I believe this should pave way for Dev to realise all the wrong that he has done to Sonakshi. I found today's scene to be more realistic than moralistic. Probably we would get to see the righteous path taken by both Sona and Dev in the episodes to follow, but for today I felt the scene blended perfectly with the track.

@ bold. I hope what you say is true. Since I have not been able to fathom the path the Cvs want to take, your guess is as good as mine. 😊

Thanks for sharing your views, they are always conveyed very well. I can be quite emotional on the topic of breakup when it has been initiated by the guy owing to family pressures (long story about a close friend, I shared it on someone's thread sometime back).

IKR, i don't understand when people say its LOVE that's why both are doing what they are doing.
Really? Love is not suppose to make you weak, make you insane that you lost your self respect, your mind completely.

In love u grow, you don't fall down like this. Man i have no words now, i am so disaaponted with what Sona did today. They are spoiling the definition of LOve.

This is so not done. She understood ..like seriously Sona? How can you justify Dev's actions.

Aren't you suppose to tell him what is going on is completely wrong. there was an another way out, to sort this out. N on top that you are saving that mental case, let her know sona what her ego and self-obsessiveness has done.

I might stop watching the show now, I mean i don't want Ekta show where all FL are sacrifise ki devi. There is one mother who is utterly wrong, but yet she is being saved. And I don't want to talk about Dev. Damn what they are trying to prove!

I am very very disappointed.

😊 I see your DP and your signature. In KYY the FL's reaction in the jungle scene (from the punch to the punch) and the redemption track was handled so well. So was the second redemption track.

After reading your post , I went back and watched those 3 promos again...I dont see a changed Dev in any of those 3. Its understood that his mom's happiness is above every thing including his life which is his love for Sona...

So all our thoughts were in the wrong direction...redemption can happen only when Sona is back in his life...if he has to save himself and be a better person then her presence in his life is required. She is the one who brings sanity and meaning into his life...and he himself has said this during confession time " you make a better person "!! With out her he is more of a machine.

As I said in previous post todays episode was more a closure to the break up...a mutual one..that of respect and understanding...And I think they are nearing the first promo...today when Dev was telling her how imp she was to him...she responded saying what is the use of saying it when we both know that you can accept me ...if you do then you will loose ur mom!! And the first promo she says what is the use of talking now when its all over ..



I am preparing for an important meeting and in between typing responses on this thread, into the wee hours of the night. Forget Dev, I need to be redeemed.

If they wanted to go the way of the original storyline, why the gratuitous humiliation of Sona and trampling of her family's value along the way? Why not a mutual break up?

Do you remember the phone call between Dev and Sona after Neha's wedding when he tells her that he speaks with her without any filter? I thought they would have similar conversations when they first start witnessing Ish's reactions to their relationship and together discuss next steps...

i don't agree completely with this as i don't think each love story needs to have redemption track only because the lead couples fought/caused pain to each other. And not esp for Dev and Sonakshi. As much as they were living their dreams when in love they know the bitter truth for their breakup and for a son who has worshiped his mother, sonakshi cannot expect Dev to leave his mother or break her heart. she was admitted in hospital, he was feeling guilty and while what he did was wrong he acknowledges that he has done wrong with sonakshi but it doesn't mean he loves her less. I could be the only viewer maybe that is happy with the way the script has been written and story developed.
Perhaps an acknowledgement from Dev to Sonakshi that he did wrong will be good but i think it would be fairly tale thing if he has to woo his lady love back and in real life it doesn't happen.
Today's episode was really good.

You are correct . I mean theoretically yes ..thats how something works - u do mistake , realiseit , work to rectify it and then things get back to normal ...

But relationships dont work that way ..atleast sometimes ...there re mistakes and those mistakes are forgiven attimes even w/o any explaination cos the other person understands u...Sona knows Dev in and out and she just understands him . Simple . So she can forgive him . Cos when u UNDERSTAND somebody u dont go out troubling them - that is real maturity :) Dev can still rectify his mistakes in future but I dont think Sona has been ruined or isnt justified in any way . Cos , really thats how relationships work . You dont go out and get tit-for-tat from ur loved ppl , u just forgive them - thats y they r ur ppl n that doesnt mean u r weak that only means u r strong enough to love them with their flaws and forgive them anyway n keep loving them . Thats life my friend :) sometimes u gotta do that sometimes the other person ..its as simple and as complicated as that :) :P

Yes Dev didnt stand up for the relationship n yes that is a mistake but lets give a chance , he will make things right but in that too he needs Sona as a support , as a guide ..Its always been like that - n right now she is his oxygen n he is strangling . Sona can see it - Thankfully!

So to me Sona understanding him is a very proud moment and m happy that they r going realistic in this way !

anyway its devakshi who r hurt so much in this mess and I want it to end soon ! lets see how the story shapes up ahead ! :)

PS- strictly my POV :)


Thanks for sharing your views.

Yes, relationships are indeed complicated, not black and white. I wish Dev had understood that and thought about how to manage the complicated relationship dynamics involving his mom and Sona. Forget thinking about this option, he did not even contemplate it and Sona too now endorses this simplistic approach.

Sona understanding him definitely shows her as a great soul but that is not new. She has been understanding him since almost the start of the show. Some understanding coming her way from Dev would make this a balanced and more real relationship.

They have skipped the step of realization, apology and muddled with an inconsistent Sona regarding Dev which leaves the door for no-proper redemption arc but more like if shweri under fear of losing Dev agrees to this union, Sona will happily relent and forget all this. It's not a trait created out of love but they always have made Sona like this which is a shame.
When a breakup happens for a desi show , it needs to be careful about the wording of the so called love declarations, these aggressive steps dilute the proposal every way. If the sacrifice shit was done, they should have instantly shown Dev's loss and him realizing what the f**kery he has done and developed a sense of self-loathing . Coupled with Sona being spirited and actually punching him down and explaining to him how this wasn't only his choice to make but as a unit, it needed her consent and her will too. After that they should have started redemption track rather they went all stalking and what not. They throw a bone to annoy viewers of Sona and justify Dev, somewhat or to project him as a protector when they started the 3rd angle and marriage trope. Ritwick is awesome but he is not the end game we all know it. He is there to cover up the track for Dev- either by being a d-bag or being a shipper.

This conversation is late- Sona's fears should be about Dev leaving her again. What if his mom never like her. Can she imagine a life like that waiting for the consent. Where does she stand ? She should have had a thought about it herself and shared that with Dev .

Dev's redemption track shouldn't be combined with him finding out how pathetic ishwari be, thats independent . Thats like blaming Ishwari for his mistakes nope. he effed up, he needs to give that dignity and space to Sona.

But this is Dutta , so meh.

Story is yet to unfold but the part that unfolded today with Sona understanding his dilemma (which even we do not frankly because he did not even try) without him even trying was disappointing for me as a woman, and as someone who expects her true partner to do everything possible and more before even contemplating giving up



Sona understands his dilemma cause she knows him now and she loves him. we are not in love with Dev (I sure am not with this character.. can never see myself spending my life with such a weak & selfish man😡 no matter how handsome). As a woman I agreee.. Dev is no hero.. in fact he has been turned into a total zero by the CVs.. but since it's a fictional character is desi soap.. he doesn't need to be redeemed or shown to demonstrate his understanding of relations outside maa beta
