Expectations, Pride and Disappointments.

Every parent wants their children to excel, to be happy, to flourish, A parent definitely feels a sense of achievement if the child is brought up well, is successful. It gives them the satisfaction, the contentment that they did not fail as parents.
And then (Pardon me for the DTKL dialogue😆) their are two kinds of children,
One like Vicky who don't give a damn about their parent's expectations, and the other like Dev and Sonakshi, who try to be the ideal children for their parents, trying their best to meet expectations.

From the first kind, like Mamaji, parents stop expecting giving it to fate that things are not in their control,
and those falling in the second category, the expectations of parents rise even more.
You must have noticed how the good child in every family listens to more scoldings if he takes a wrong step, while a spoilt brat may be ignored by the same parents.
Reason?
Expectations.

Dev and Sonakshi kept living upto their parent's expectations throughout their life, not giving a chance to them to complain.
Now, like every human, when they are making mistakes, are being human, are overlooking their role as a child first,
the parents are being disappointed. Frustrated. Angry.That they were wrong in keeping hopes. That their child is not as ideal as they wanted to bring him/her up.
Little do they realise, that this burden of - responsibilities, of being the good child, of living for your parent's happiness - takes away the child's own share of happiness.

What Dev and Sona did yesterday was their own impulsive action, Dev drinking, Sona rescuing him. .The first thing they both think about when they are back to senses is. . I have let my family down.
Dev was worried about what his mom would think, and Sonakshi was hurt because she knew Bijoy was hurt.
Both Bijoy and Ishwari are being rigid, we are already seeing Ishwari's walls of pride falling down and we will soon see a Bijoy compromise with his expectations from Sonakshi, for her happiness. For every parent's first priority is their children's happiness.

Mamaji is such a sorted person..he did not pressurise dev with his heavy words when he woke up, instead calmly told him to follow the routine. He knows that a time bomb is ticking inside Dev, ready to explode, some more pressure and it will blow off.

So, Dev wants to apologise to Sonakshi for ruining her day, for creating a scene. Look! How selfless he became eventually. For those who said he is an egoistic man who just cared about himself should see, how Dev was shocked when he knew about how he was the cause of misery in Sonakshi's life, yet again.

The precap: Ishwari ready for the marriage. Bijoy is a tough nut to crack now. But, Asha is there to help him look beyond pride. So, I am not worried.😊

p.s Farewell R! Thanks for being so good🤗

PPS. Dev was actually smiling when he thought about sona while sleeping😳😆

So rightly said Saumie
Dev and Sona have always been the good and "perfect" child to their parents
And both of them, Dev and Sona, are going through this whole turmoil which may force them to do things that aren't very correct perhaps
Their parents have way too much expectations. N both of them are afraid to let their parents down.

It can be elating for the child if he/she is able to live up to the expectations. . It makes her feel special and worthy that she can make her parents happy.
But, there is no scope of a mistake there. . One wrong step and you feel guilty.

Posting my reply from another thread..because what's what I feel in detail about the episode and characters and their bonds
Episode was better in terms of emotional draining...bit it was super messy...though things gonna clear one by one..and starting would be from dixit house this time..
Baba is rightly angry and I do understand him..but he is again making same mistake .he is still not seeing point what ritwik said. Yesterday and today too.

He has streaks of ishwari in him.he still not coming to terms with reality.

He is doing to sona what ishwari did to dev..make kids guilty..bijoy you need to trust your daughter and your upbringing..she already feeling guilty because she has hurt so many people.you don't need to make her feel guilty more.this will again make her do what she does not want but would do for your happiness just as she decided to get engaged

You were right when you said how many times you asked her before going for engagement.yes you did..but the approach was indirect push to get a yes from her.you repeatedly told her she is strong and over relationship with dev..you repeatedly said how relieve you would be if yiu settle down a nice guy like ritwik.there was no way that she could say no to you because she knew she has already hurt you enough.

I hope you calm down ..I know you are soxiety perosn and worried and embarrassed about whole situation and honestly it's realstic but don't forget you have told your daughter that you are her friend too.
She is your upbringing ..she is your daughter..let her go through her ordeal ..let her follow her heart...this time too..talk to her..clear her inhibitions..support her to have confidence in her own decisions
And this you only can do to her...she gets confidence when she sees trust and pride in your eyes..that's makes her strong..your disappointment makes her sink..dont let her sink

Asha and saurav are my fav in bose family..because they talk less and listen more...they see less but observe more and that the reason they understand people most and are so calm.no wonder sona has got this quality form her mother and high esteem form her father.

I am so glad that first thing dev remembered was sona and consequences of his acts in her engagement.

I am glad he was feeling guilty of spoiling her engagement and being cause of halting her new journey.

Makers have been showing dev's redemption all along whole process.

Mamaji words were so bang on...and Vicky too said on things spot on...Mandir nahi hai ab ya bhagwan se vishwas uth gaya..

I know where this mess is getting us ...role reversal is on cards..
Sona as dev ..and baba as issue
Lets see how they play out..
I am hoping they don't drag it because I would be bored and it's enough of already available mess..needs to clear it first..thank God issue aunty has started clearing..

I feel personally that it should get over asap because it would look OTT if it gets dragged or overboard with bijoy drama and sona giving attitude specially aftef whatever happened at Dev house last night
