Precisely. I don't blame Ishwari for her behaviour.
We are very quick to blame other people for our mess.
When someone's husband has an affair, we call the other woman names. Why?
Was the other woman married to me? No.
My husband was married to me. So my expectations were with him, my trust was with him and if he betrays me, then it's him I am going to blame, no one else.
Same situation apply here. Ishwari did not hold a gun to Dev's head to take a decision himself. He could have went to Sonakshi who was present in the same house at the same time.
He got offended when Sonakshi took the decision to fast without discussing with him when he was not even present and had no opinion regarding the decision that Sonakshi knew of.
Now it's twice since the marriage when he took decisions without discussing with Sonakshi while she was present in the same house knowing her opinion and wishes without discussing her.
And people are still trying to find excuses for his behaviour.
I said before marriage and I said since then that Dev should not have got married when he is already married to his past and obligations. Moreover, he is a blind puppet on string for his mother to play anyway she wants to.
A person who has no freewill and no life of his own has no right to get married.
When I was young there was a religious story about a Goddess where a man who was an indentured slave gets married only to turn his wife into an indentured slave herself. And how the wife after much hardship and with the Goddess's blessings set both of them free was the story (I think it was Lakshmi or Santoshi Maa of sort)
I thought at that time too that why did the man get married if he was a slave?
Do you see any difference here?

Tia in this whole thing I am not even bringing the Easwari equation into this mess because LEGALLY 'Marriage is only between two consenting Adults'.
I know people may say family plays a role and and all which has some validity but the Bottom Line is 'IT IS ONLY BETWEEN TWO CONSENTING ADULTS'
The issue here is one of the Adult really did not have the authority to Consent maybe because he was not adult enough to make the decision to consent maybe a Minor so the Adult in his life made the decision for Him and he went with the flow.
But he is forgetting he may not be the Adult who consented to get into the marriage but the marriage nevertheless involved another 'ADULT who for whatever reasons believes the Man to be an adult so hoping to make adult decisions only with HIM especially when it involves intimacy .
Because as far as the Legality of Marriage it is ONLY between two consenting Adults NOT three adults, or two adults and a Minor!
Maybe this show is rewriting what the legality of marriage really is!
