I've given up on trying to make sense of this show now. Dev fell in my eyes in day before yesterday's episode. Happily skipping to Sonakshi's office without an iota of guilt or introspection was totally not expected. Just 10 mins back he was feeling ashamed of his behavior and as soon as Mommy said yes, everything vanished. It was as if he forgot what conspired the previous night.
Then comes yesterday. His totally giving up on trying to woo Sonakshi, forget about introspection or redemption. He doesn't even want to try to win her back. All of this makes me come to one conclusion. He doesn't mind being apart from Sonakshi, as long as she doesn't move on. The moment someone else comes into the picture, all hell breaks lose again.
I somehow don't even blame Ishwari after this. She is right in thinking of Dev's love as a zidd for a toy. Coz that's exactly what Sonakshi is to him. A toy. As long as the toy is sitting in the corner, untouched by anyone else, he is ok. As soon as another child expresses a desire in the toy, he loses his shit and throws tantrums, screams, cries, yells, breaks things till the other child gives up on the toy. Sonakshi is his property. "You are mine" were the words he used. He actually means them. He doesn't give two hoots about her feelings, her guilt, her emotions. Her family is not even a part of the equation according to him. Talk about butchering a character. I remember in the initial episodes, Dev used to hurt Sonakshi, but he immediately realized his mistakes, mostly without Ishwari's proding, and would apologize or make it up to her. With flowers, heart felt notes, trips to her house and what not. Where is that Dev Dixit?
The CVs are taking Sonakshi's character for a ride as well. Her total and utter confusion about what she wants is baffling. I thought she was quite clear that she wants to marry Dev, the man and not Dev, Ishwari's son. But now, even I have my doubts as to what she wants. If Bijoy is ok with their alliance, will she forget everything else and rush back into Dev's waiting arms?
I don't feel Ishwari is wrong now. If Dev can't fight for his love and keeps behaving in this manner, she isn't wrong to assume that his wanting Sonakshi is akin to wanting a toy.
They are trying to make the audience sympathize with Dev and Ishwari by making Bijoy and Sona shout on them. Wow. What a way to redemption.
Dev's defeated "Toh fir maan kyu nai jaati tum?" extinguished all my hopes of a redemption.
Sorry for the long-ass reply. I have not been commenting on any posts and seeing your reply, I just couldn't stop myself.
Have you seen the segments that aired today? Erica in one of her interviews says exactly this - Sona was not ok earlier as her parents were not, now that parents are ok, she is fine too.
Need I say anything further?????????
Just saw the segments. facepalming now. So I guess redemption has gone for a toss. I think we should adjust our expectations now and just watch for the chemistry of the leads, keeping aside our brains. It will only lead to disappointment.
