Kaalkothri - Really Dev ? - Page 3

I am working in a public sector company in India and even there no one dares talk like this to the subordinates the way Dev does.

But then Dev has this habit of behaving like that because he thinks that as he has money he can get away with whatever he wants. A side effect of his days spent yearning for money and a mother who made money equivalent to God.

He is soft and considerate only with people he loves or cares about with the rest he has the remarkable capability of being inconsiderate and even cruel. Be it Sona before falling in love stage, Ritwik and now ranveer.

Also just wanted to point out one thing for those who keep on defending Ishwari and her alter ego Dev in the name of their Dukh bhari kahani . My grandparents were very rich people who had so much money they used to sleep with a gun. Had huge tracts of land, horses and a house full of servants . My grandmother was the daughter of a high ranking government official and in those days had been given a proper education.

And then one fine day partition of India took place and they had to run to India with absolutely nothing and three very small children. There wasn't anything to even feed the children forget a place to sleep.

My grandfather didn't have a professional degree. He had to sell tea on a thela. But with their hard work they slowly established themselves and gave their children excellent education.

But did I ever see my grandparents behave like Ishwari. No. Is my father scarred like Dev or Neha. No. Did my grandmother ever give my father a lecture on how much she sacrificed for him. No.

I know as a matter of fact that for paying my father's IIT fees my grandparents forego their dinner for a few months. Something my father told us. My grandmother never mentioned this even once in my living memory

That was such an insulting comment especially coming from a person who has gone through poverty himself.

And out of all the things that Dev could say,he was giving advice on responsibilities towards wife 🤣Somebody show him the mirror please.The only reason his marriage is working is because of Sonakshi.(who has undergone a drastic personality change it seems😳)

There was no remorse on Dev's end for saying anything to Ranveer.He called it Ranveer's "ego".Very convenient🤔If somebody dares to think about their self respect or hard work,they are being egoistic.He did not even bother to understand what Ranveer was saying.Thinking only about themselves is a special trait the Dixits possess.They have suffered so much,so now the world must bow down for them.Everybody else in the world is living a dream life with no problems.🥱

If this is how Dev solves problems,then I don't know how his company is still standing.😕

Dev's behavior with Tina is appalling.No employee would tolerate this rudeness.Everybody around Dev is so understanding & accepting towards his behavior that its unreal. When my superior behaves moody(that too not anywhere near how Dev does), me & other trainees shoot glares at him.Understanding & accepting it meekly is not even on radar.

Amazing post as always and loved your responses in Tia's thread as well.I so want to write a longer reply but my mind is preoccupied with my exams starting in a week🤓

Dev may be overly generous with the people he loves. But he can be cruel too.

We have seen it targeted towards Sona, towards Ranveer, towards Ritwik, towards Tina etc. When he gets his way, he is overly charming. But when things aren't moving to his will, his arrogance kicks in...

But then who else have we seen exactly like that? Hummm... let me think. Ishwari and Neha.

Ishwari is the epitome of modern thinking when she is encouraging Sona to go to work. But when things doesn't go her way, she turns on her within seconds.

Neha is very sweet when she is happy. But again, she can be equally cruel when she is unhappy.

So the apple didn't really fall much further than the tree.

Moving on to the Kal Kothri comment.

As far as I know, Dev or Neha wasn't born with a silver spoon stuck in their throat (I was going to use a$$, but then this is a public forum). So Ranveer can accuse Dev and Ishwari for putting Neha in Kal Kothri in her childhood. Just like they had no money then to live a better life, Ranveer doesn't have any money now either.

Besides, Kal Kothri by definition is Black hole of a prison where people suffocate because the air is toxic and stale. If I go by definition, Dixit house is a bigger kal kothri than Ranveer's house can ever be.

Neha had all the respect and honour as befits a newly wedded bride from Ranveer's family. They tried their best with what little they had to accommodate Neha's needs. Money might be tight, but respect and love wasn't...

On the other hand, Sona lives in a gilded cage of minefields.

One false step and insults and humiliation blow up in her face and she is shown the little "X" mark outside the family circle which is her spot. Every time she tries to enter the inner family circle, she is neatly caged back into the her place outside the boundary.

But Dev, being the loving husband, remembers to pat her head for Sona understanding her place before he heads back into his family circle.

I wonder which one sounds more like Kal Kothri? In my opinion, the later. But then I love my freedom more than I value my comforts.

Each word Bijoy Bose speaks is 200% right, I dare anyone challenges that 😆 Starting from calling Dev a boy who still catches Maa ka pallu, to Ishwari being selfish to GKB and Dixits being classless, why 200%, even 10000% right judgments 😆.

If Ranveer or Sona calls Ishwari Kaalkothri Niwaas as Kaalkothri, I doubt if anyone would have a problem in that, because it is what it is. A suffocating, toxic and painful environment which kills a happy soul residing in it. But from which angle a happy-go-lucky and balanced families like Sona's or Ranveer's are Kaalkothri ? Did Ranveer and Sona grow up as emotionally crippled ? No, only Dixits products are defective. Bijoy Baba has a point 😛😆

What you say is right, just a small difference being - Baba's allegations and taunts are full of truth, comes out of concern for his daughter who WAS suffered by and due to Dixits once, whereas Dev's taunts are FAR from reality and is product of his own arrogance, ignorance to correct his own sister, insensitivity and total disregard for the person who is not bowing down to his whining. 😊

cant compare. bijoy has been bang on with everything he says. his observations and comments are astute and based on years of experience. neither Ishwari nor Dev have ever proven him wrong!
