I really applaud how Sona handled the situation today. She is really a very matured n understanding person. Unfortunately, bcoz of being so understanding, she is often taken for granted by Dixits including Dev. Like any normal girl she was heartbroken abt her HM getting cancelled, but she kept aside her feelings n understood what Dev was going through even when he didn't even bother to consult her n was again rude with her.
I understand HM is very important specially when their dating time for so short n then they had gone thru a rough patch, they need some alone time to understand each other better but Sona knows how much Dev is concerned abt his mother n sisters. N if someone in her own family was unwell, she wud hav done d same thing as Dev did, maybe unlike Dev she wud hav discussed with him first.

I really liked Bijoy, Asha n Sona's conversation today - very real n genuine n Sona did mention that part of the reason was Neha's marital issues. Unfortunately they had this convo in the middle of the hall where anyone can listen. That was pretty stupid. Neha being Neha heard the whole conversation but wud rembr only the part whr Sona tells abt Neha n Ranveer having problems. Neha will conveniently forget the part of the conversation where Sona admits they were wrong in planning the trip n they want to be with Neha in this difficult times.

So tomorrow showdown , Sona wud hav no good reason that why she blamed Neha infront of her parents for HM being cancelled even though its the truth. N no one wud hear her what Sona wud hv to say. Dev wud go back to being insensitive n Ish wud have the 'told you so' moment coz she told Mama that Sona is an outsider n they shud not discuss family problems with her.

Imagine being in nehas place. She finds out that she is the cause for the cancellation. Imagine how she would feel. Sona was wrong to discuss this where anybody can hear her.
Neha is being totally in character when she questions Sona immediately unlike her mother.
It will be interesting to see how Dev will react tomorrow.

Rose, Seriously sona was not in trauma due to HM cancellation to lose her senses. But Neha definitely is in trauma after what she is going thru and on top of it what she heard sona saying.

I am not saying she was in trauma.I just said she was upset.

She should not discuss Neha's marital problems with her parents. period..in the hall outside the house doesnt matter...
I have a different pov here.They are Sonakshi's parents, not an outsider.They are her family too.She did take a decision due to Neha's marital troubles,so I see nothing wrong with her sharing the same.She didn't share details,just told them the problem in few words.The place was wrong-Yes.Sharing? In my view-No.
She didn't share Neha's problems as gossip.
Neha not only came to know that she and she problems are the reason for cancellation but she heard Sona actually telling her parents the same... and her parents saying Neha should understand etc... when did anyone discuss this with Neha ?? why is she being dragged into this ??
So Neha is heartbroken and she packed her bags and said i am going and you guys go on your HM... neha has always been like this.. she doesnt sugar coat .. she doesnt try to please people. she will say what is in her mind..
i expect sona to explain it to Neha tomorrow that she never meant it that way...
As I said,Neha being angry or distressed or disturbed is understandable.I am not questioning or blaming her for how she felt after hearing Sonakshi & her parents.I don't expect her to sugarcoat anything either.She could have confronted Sona& Dev privately.That's all I was saying.Given her character, I am not surprised by how she reacted,I am simply stating an alternative.

Way to go Sona. It's sad that u fall pray to Ishwari's cunningNess everytime but I strongly feel that this is the only way you will get closer to Dev. I believe from now onwards what ever dixit clan will do to belittle u but u will handle it maturally and soon enough Dev will also see and respect this and that day is not far when he will take a stand for ur honour. 🤗

Unfortunate though it may be and how so realistic it may seem like, tomorrow both Ishwari and Dev would punish Sona for what she did. Dev would never take Sona's side and that wouldn't be a surprise for it all happens in reality. Oh Sona will get a good lecture of morality from Ishwari of why she is still an outsider and would never understand Neha's pain. GKB to hai hi tadka lagane ke liye. So more rona dhona tomorrow. However I second that thought, Sona was wrong to discuss Neha's marital issues with her parents. It is this what Ishwari didn't wanted to happen when she told Mamaji not to talk to Sona about Neha and look same thing has happened. It's not Sona's personal matter that she may decide on whom to talk to about it.

People's definition of who is an outsider and who isn't changes so easily. One minute Sona was an outsider... Dev could get angry at Neha's in laws but no one was allowed to discuss neha with Sona. Then next minute Dev is expected to understand what Neha is going through. But do they not realise sona and dev are one entity now. Sona is part of the family.
Why would she not tell her parents what were the TWO reasons the trip was cancelled? Why can't she talk in the hall? Neha is depressed and sona has offered her help.

Neha was bound to feel bad. However, this is sona's house(too)now. Would it be any better is she spoke to her parents behind closed doors? She had no bad intentions. She just stated the facts.

The Makers again did and amazing job. The Ishwari-dev conversation and the dev-sona conversation was very well enacted. Well done guys.

Let's see if Dev stands up for Devakshi this time or more showdowns are needed.

Okay, let's talk about Sona and Neha. Sona's parents arrives at her home hearing that Ishwari is sick. But when Asha offers to help Sona to pack, she informs that they are not going to honeymoon.

Bijoy asks why?

Sona informs that Ishwari is sick.

Bijoy says that there are other people to take care of her. Fair point. She is not at death's door. Just her BP is low.

Now I suppose Sona could say that Ishwari made a drama again and Dev again sidetracked my dreams. But she saved her husband. So she responded that Neha and Ranveer are having problems, so they can't go now.

Bijoy answers, Neha is important, but so is her life.

Sona says that what kind of enjoyment will it be if Dev doesn't have fun and it's his decision and she supports him.

All true. All fair points. All excuses given by Ishwari and Dev for breaking her hopes and dreams.

Did she say it sarcastically? Did she sneer or sigh or blame Neha in any way whatsoever? No.

Did she announce it in public place at the top of her lungs with accusations? Again, no.

She spoke to her parents, HER FAMILY, HER WELL-WISHER in private knowing full well that they will never speak about this to anyone. Sona didn't call her parents and gossip. They were there and saw everything with their own eyes.

Also, who else would she talk to? Who asked Sona how she was feeling to see her dreams getting crushed again? No one. That's who. Then who else will she talk about it if not her parents who is at least asking HER about HER HAPPINESS?

Bijoy tried to give his daughter options to solve the problem, then let her take her own decisions when she made it clear that it was her wish. Just as he has always done.

Next, let's bring Neha.

She overheard a private conversation between her sister-in-law and her parents. If she thought that it's unfair and she never wants to be cause for her brother and sister-in-law not going on their honeymoon, she could go to Sona and say that she never wants to be the cause for her not going on her honeymoon. So she really wishes her and Dev to go.

But what did she do? She proved that she is indeed Ishwari's blood. She made a scene of leaving while calling Dev and Sona. When she gathered everyone, she claimed that Sona said behind her back that she didn't go to her honeymoon because of Neha. Her hope, Sona gets another sets of insult for daring to open her mouth in front of her parents when she should have silently bear everything. Her expectations are not much different from the society because that's exactly what everyone expects from a daughter-in-law.

Sona clearly said that it was Dev's decision and to defend Dev's totally uncaring attitude to her hopes and dreams, she explained the reason behind it.

Now may I ask what would have been the right response to the question Bijoy asked?

1. Same old same old, mother-in-law's manipulation.

2. Same old same old, my husband's don't-give-a-damn attitude towards my hopes and dreams and his tendency to force his decision on me.

3. My husband decided not to go because a. Mother-in-law is sick with low BP and b. Neha and Ranveer are having issues.

Which response sounds better for the crap situation she was in?

But if Neha expects to stay in her brother's home for foreseeable future when she is married, how long can she hide the fact?

Neha wants to be left alone, but also expects special treatment. It doesn't work that way.

If she wanted to be left alone, she could have sorted it out with Dev and Sona so that everyone behaves normal and they leave for honeymoon. Then she will be literally left alone.

She got offended when Sona said they are not going on honeymoon because she and Ranveer is having problems. But not offended that because of her they cancelled their trip?

That means she wanted what Ishwari wants, she will mope around while everyone will stop living their life and stare at her face. But no one can know about it even though everyone is seeing a married woman staying at her brother's home.

That's not happening.

Again, was Sona wrong in mentioning Neha's problem? Yes. But if she didn't have to pay for it, then she won't have mentioned it just like she didn't until today and only when her parents got a glimpse of her life in Dixit house.

Forget Dev... I am just talking about Sona- Neha here.

Cancellation of HM for valid reason shoud not have caused enough trauma for sona to lose her senses.

Sona has no right to discuss Nehas problem with anyone outside that house... period.. if she wants to discuss then she should ask Neha if it OK.
we talk about what is right and what is wrong... so lets apply that to all characters .. why exclude Sona...

What she did was wrong.. and tomorrow if Neha describes to everyone what exactly happened - what sona said and what sona's parents response was ... Who needs to be blamed ?
Sona is the one at fault... directly or indirectly she said the Neha and her problems are the reason for cancelling their HM...

so if Neha questions her tomorrow... I want Sona to answer and Dev to support that what she heard is not what Sona meant. Nonetheless Sona wronged so she needs to explain herself in this situation instead of Dev coming and defending Sona...Dev should just confirm.. thats all once sona explains that she didnt mean it that way.

In this situation Neha is not at fault at all... she has her own troubles and never said donot go on HM to dev or sona... it is Ishwari who created this problem.. So lets not blame Neha for what ever she does tomorrow... she is my favorite after Sona.

At least Neha has a choice. When she got married, she got a choice. Now that she left her husband, also her choice. Her husband didn't leave her, he didn't die and he didn't anyway humiliate/insult or abuse her. Her situation is not a situation of someone else's making.

Unfortunately, there is a price of choice and it's called taking responsibility. Choices are not free.

But Sona doesn't have that luxury. She didn't get her choice and she still had to take the responsibility for Dev's choice. All burden, but no benefits. That's Sona's life.

So sorry if I can't feel sorry for Neha.

Secondly, if Neha truly felt that she doesn't want to be cause for Sona not going to honeymoon, she could have went to Dev and Sona's room and insist that they go. As simple as that? That scene she created was just to insult Sona.

I see the discussions have moved to Sona and Neha.
Let us talk about identities.

Is Sona a Bose or a Dixit? Why does she need to be only one or the other? If she is only Dixit now does that mean that she is no longer a Bose a daughter, granddaughter, sister , cousin ? And because she is not any of these are the Bose strangers?

Does this rule apply to Neha what is she ? A Dixit or I don't know her married name? let us say her married name us x than what is she doing at the Dixit? And why is she talking about her husband to strangers the Dixits? Or does this rule apply only to Sona and daughters are exempt if so isn't Sona exempt because last I knew she was a daughter too?


Does that apply to Dev ? Is he a Dixit? Or a Bose? If he is a Dixit should he be talking to the Bose family? What if tommorow he says to Easwari that Saurabh is having problems not going into the detail of the problems but saying he has problems and that too say in the Bose home. Does Saurabh have the right be offended? Or does this rule apply only to woman? And Dev is exempt?


People sometimes take up their husbands last name or name because they want to or because that is what has been done in the past but nowadays some people retain their maiden name even after marriage just because they do one or the other does that mean they are any less of a good wife.

Do we have to give up our identities just because we happen to be married and now follow an invisible code of conduct that only applies to woman? . Are we still in an Era when women are supposed to shave their heads and stop wearing bindi or flowers because our husbands are no more ..didn't we have our hair the way we wanted and wore bindi and flowers even before the husband came into the picture?

The last I knew really there is no such codes and rules then why is Sona's action here even part of a discussion ? Someone please enlighten me?

Tia my girl sorry here I go again ...

Who is the outsider sona told about neha issues...so her parents are now outsiders...did she speak out side the dixit house or inside...did she go on national TV...? Please if she wishes to let her patents know something then she should be free to do so...I am married 16yrs now and when my brother in law got divorce they did not want anyone to know and I made it very clear to my husband that I was not going to lie to my mother I told him I was going to let her know because if she heard it elsewhere then I would feel bad...that all was not well and I said nothing...he said to do what I think was right and I told my mother...and she give motherly advice to me... So I don't see the hoorah about neha and her situation... It would not surprise me if dev did not support her...she has her own battles as well as his battles... Sona should just go back to work and excel at her work..
I wonder if she has external conferences what will dev do and if she becomes famous all by herself... What would he do...at least she will be out of everybody's way...will nrha also think sona is lucky...just remember sons is not afraid of working and being independent... She is not blaming everyone and there family for her shortcomings...
