When he befriended Sona and fell in love with her, that was a big step for him too. He had no one outside his family until then. But I don't think today was that big a step for him.

When he wanted to gift Neha her expensive lehenga for her wedding, he not only questioned his mother's decision but defied her to buy the lehenga his sister wanted.

Even though his mother forbade him to offer Ranbir any monetary thing to protect his pride, he again went against her wishes.

So, should I assume in his mind, Sona is an afterthought that he can't even defend her honour?

Where is the so called love now?

If someone else had bad mouthed Sona, won't he beat him up?

Then when his mother did, he could not even admit that it was him to who crossed the boundaries?

How conveniently they forgot that Neha fell in love with her teacher...if falling in love at workplace is wrong then wat abt Neha n Ranveer.

N you are right Dev shud hv told her that he proposd Sona, not the other way around. How did he let Ish talk abt Sona's character. Arranging alliance for Sona was one of the biggest mistake Ish did, but Dev was nt even angry. How further low wud Ish has to stoop, so that Dev realises thd truth abt his god.

Hated that Dev stopped Ish n hugged her. Ish deserves complete indifference from Dev.

I get what you are saying... but all those instances he just did not agree with his mom's way of thinking and though logically instead of taking care of others feelings.

Proposing to sona - he was living in his bubble that his happiness is mom's happinesss... so there was no conflict in his mind. so it is not a big step for him

Lehenga issue -- again it is a family matter.. brother taking side of Sis going against Ishwari's logic..again all this is with in the family .. so i dont think this is a big step.. the moment she asked if he thinks she is wrong.. he backed off.. All these instances, he did something and then backed off as his mom didnt like his approach..

Here it is like, he found some information from third party and he felt his mom's doing is not correct or did something that would hurt him...this is more like questioning initiated by him..he had too much to digest to further question her rights and wrongs. I am sure he will ask all these questions again in future. but first hand confrontation initiated by Dev is a big deal.

i will be most disappointed if CVs show one episode of Ishwari repenting and begging Sonakshi and her family. what she is and what she has done.. should be a whole track of redemption.

same for Dev.. he can't get away with.. sonakshi loves him, understands him.. so forgave him.

So you agree that in his mind family comes first and Sona is an afterthought. I mean if he can take his sister's side to defy his mother for such a trivial issue of a lehenga and he can't even defend Sona's honour, then it's clear where Sona falls in his priority list.

Where's his claim that they are one, not separate if her dishonour is not his dishonour?

If I was a betting person, I'd bet that this discussion won't ever happen again. As it is, he can't open his mouth in front of his mother, I doubt after hugs and saying she did nothing wrong, he will bring up the same conversation again.

That's what I was trying to point out to you. In Dev's priority list, Sona is an after thought.

A man who can't even defend his lady's honour is not a man in my book. It doesn't matter who questioned her honour. But he knows what is being said is wrong, yet he kept silent. If his mother calls his Mama thief and he knows that he isn't thief, won't he defend his Mama?

That means he honours eveyone except the woman he claims to love.

He lost all my respect as a man today.

As always, I enjoyed reading your thoughts and opinions. I was disappointed with Dev's behaviour but can't say I expected any different. He has always been weak when it comes to his mother and continued being so even today. I wanted to see everything that you wrote you expected from Dev but I knew the way his character is going, it will only remain an unfulfilled wish.There were signs of him being upset with his mother today, but can we expect or hope for a much needed show down? Will he ever be strong enough for that?

I fail to understand why the makers are so hell bent in showing that the only right way to show your respect and love for your mother is by agreeing and accepting everything she says or not questioning her even though she is wrong. Having a different view from your parents or going against their decisions sometimes does not mean that you value them or respect them any less. And the makers are trying to force justifications of his actions based on this ground.

Dev letting his mother belittle Sona and their love and question her character or morals is such a big disappointment and let down. How could a person who "loves" a girl let anybody point fingers at her? Just how? Dev claims that Sona is his reason of breathing and living, then how can he let his mother insult her this way? He can fight with Sona for his mother but can't do the same for Sona? What kind of love is that? People stand up even for their friends in real life and speak up an opinion different from their parents if required. And here Dev can't stand up for somebody he considers his life, especially when she is the one being wronged.

He is truly the only one responsible for his condition.

Ishwari- I have no words to describe how sick I am of this character. Hypocrite would be right. Not once does she consider that her own daughter did exactly what she is criticising Sona for. Not once does she think that Dev was equally responsible in the relationship(but then why would she when Dev himself is letting her think that for him the relationship had no value). The way she was acting oh so innocent and trying to prove herself right using her well thought dramatic emotions and tears, expecting Dev to melt at the mere sight of it, I felt like throwing something at her at that moment.And her comment about how she too had a relationship or connection with Sonakshi made me wanna puke. Ugh. Disgusting. Beyond irritated with this character.Blind to her son's pain, selfish in her love(Can it even be called love?),stooped to such a low level and still continues to fall further.This has crossed insecurity and entered into evil and insane for me .I know this thread was more about Dev but I couldn't stop myself from adding this.
