I think we can all agree that this spineless, thoughtless and most selfish Dev is the worst of the worst husbands out there in the real world (barring the physically abusive husbands).

So, let's step back for a minute and think, why is he suddenly being presented this way? Why is every issue being approached badly by Dev and why is every issue being pushed under the rug through temporary solutions - be it through lies, not wanting to spoil birthday or Asha's peacekeeping force and why are Devakshi making up without really resolving any issue?

Dev may be a Mama's boy and maybe an emotional fool when it comes to his mother, but he is no "FOOL"...yet he is being presented that way by the CVs coz they need this marriage to crumble.

Yes ladies...lets look the horse in the mouth...in this case the CVs.

This show which has claimed to emulate reality for long has lost it in presenting a husband who balances life between mother and wife. Lets face it...every husband we have come across in the real world does a better job of the balancing act than Dev and why is that? The CVs have decided to make Dev the scapegoat and made him into a spineless bumbling idiot.

But CVs, why would you want to discredit your ML so badly that the love between ML and FL and in this case the beautiful love between Devakshi doesn't appeal to the viewer anymore?

This is a spectacular failure by the writers of this show. They could have come up with a better solution to the problem they are trying to push forward - How do we convincingly break up Dev and Sona?

Therefore this entire mess we are watching now is a plan to separate Dev and Sona but the CVs have failed in giving us a convincing story in presenting the same.

P.S - Dev's dialogue about loving Sona but loving love more is the worst dialogue ever IMO. Lot of people confuse the high one feels when they fall in love with deep/great love. They love the addictive high more than the partner. And that is a shortcoming...not strength. And they have given Dev that dialogue. Was that intentional? Then, it is another way of putting Dev down but if it was unintentional...then, the CVs have failed in portraying love.

Totally understand and agree with you.

The lesser said, the better. With each passing day, the show is moving to its ruins.

Shaheer sheikh must be cursing himself as to why he signed up for this.

Agree with you.

I was so surprised to see Dev in today's episode. We all know that he is the mamma's boy. The way they showed today, he couldn't tell his mom that he needs to pick up his wife, is too much. That is not reality. I don't think, anyone would do that. Dev would have never done that.

At the same time, Sona is being insensitive even after knowing that Dev being getting hurt from the swing. Sona was shown always sensible and mature. I could not believe, she refuse to understand Dev's trouble.

Based on the segment, Sona was okay with Dev not able to pick her up. I can understand her not showing displeasure infront of family. The girl who fought with Dev for not learning to do chores, she was okay with that because she doesn't want spoil his birthday. That is also unbelievable.

I will completely blame writers for that. They should have come with the better drama instead of what they are showing now for the separation.

May be I am odd one here. But the love between Devakshi still appeal to me. I remember once Sona said "No one is perfect but the feeling is." Dev couldn't enjoy his birthday without Sona. Their love is pure and real. I'm hoping, the writers will show how Dev will balance these relationship without butchering their character further.

I am one of the biggest Devakshi fans but since this whole mess started, I am not feeling Dev and his love. Coz I don't believe love can be compartmentalized that way. And this makes me sad. Earlier, whenever the series went through a bad phase, I used to get my KRPKAB high by watching old episodes and VMs and now, I can't bear to watch them because everything Dev utters in those scenes does not translate to what he is now.

And that makes me all the more angry with the writers of the show.

I was thinking about Diwali episodes when Sona gets hurt because of crackers.

Dev promised his mom that he will go with her to the temple. But when he comes to know Sona is hurt, he completely forget about Ishwari. Ishwari waits for few minutes then go to the temple by herself with the driver at night. When Dev comes to know that his mom is already left, but he wanted to go but stops when his mamaji says it is okay she will come with Driver.

If we look at today's episode, Dev wanted to go but couldn't tell his mom that Sona is waiting for him. He sends driver so that she can come home.

What I am trying to say, Dev was in the similar situation but he sends the driver. But I did not see any posts on this forum saying that his mother went all alone to the temple at night and Dev should have gone as it was their tradition. About safety, whatever..

What I see whoever watches this show, most of them are young, or married. We feel Sona's pain because we can relate to that. Ishwari is extreme at the same time we can not relate to her as we are not at that stage yet.

I wrote this somewhere...if they wanted to show that Sona's surprise birthday would flop, they could have showed Dev picking up Sona from their party venue and celebrated with his family. It would have served the drama purpose. It was okay if he sent driver to pick up Sona, but the writer failed to show the valid reason why Dev was not able to tell this to his mom.

Kuch rang story is very sensitive. CV's needs to be very careful when it comes to Dev and Sona.

Jiyaa...this is why I am blaming the writers...

I liked the Diwali scenes..coz they were well done. Dev began to get a sense of something going wrong when IShwari leaves for the temple and that was an important realization. The reason why people didn't empathize with Ishwari is because she shows jealousy on seeing Dev with Sona in the bedroom and makes a nasty comment to her brother about Sona having Dev.

I for one do not want to get into Dev vs Sona debate that is most often than not, the burning issue on the forum. I on the other hand think they used to and need to complete each other.

The difference between Diwali-Birthday issue is...

1. Ishwari was insecure about Dev's time with Sona but Sona isn't in vice-versa scenarios. Though Sona acknowledges that she shares Dev with everyone...she accepts it.

2. Ishwari knew where Dev was during Diwali incident while Sona waits and waits and waits...not knowing where Dev is (Sona could have charged her phone in the lobby, borrowed someone's mobile or Dev could have called the reception and gotten someone to call Sona etc etc but CVs think we are stupid). Dev knew she was waiting and in the case of Diwali, he goes in search of his mother to take her temple...albeit a bit late. In this case he doesn't.

3. Dev at home worries about Sona while the party at home is hardly underway. It is not convincing ...especially given how unsafe Delhi is...

4. Nobody in Dixit family even thinks of Sona. That she is not home until midnight doesnt give them a pause...and what is that??? Strange...

5. The target audeince of an Indian television show are more often than not women. And what is the message the Cvs are trying to convey to women...that men are like this only? That MILs are terrifying? That married life can be scary? That husbands are so dependent on their mothers that you have to fight for your rights from day one that you'll be left feeling miserable? Where is the balance

6. And lastly, we have already gone through a cycle of Ishwari's insecurities and this is rehash and it is made worse by Dev's insensitivity towards Sona.

The current track is making Dev look worse than Ishwari and we know he is not. So so wrong to portray him as a man who doesn't value his relationship with Sona.

The writing has gone wrong in the recent past and for that I blame only the creatives.

P.S - Sona's character is also shortchanged in the recent past (the ridiculous placement of jhoola, OTT fairy light decor, insensitivity when Dev gets hurt, expecting dev to do household chores when we all know how in India we have help to do the same and we know Sona is smarter than to expect her busy businessman husband to iron his clothes) but I am not getting into it because Dev's character is literally getting butchered and that makes for more urgent discussion.

Kuch rang story is very sensitive. CV's needs to be very careful when it comes to Dev and Sona.

There are several differences in the two situations ( Diwali, birthday)

1. In Diwali sequence, Sona was injured and Dev was taking care of her. In birthday sequence, no one was injured. Dev just could not open his mouth.

2. Matajee decided to go on her own without Dev , without even informing him. She was never stranded anywhere without a phone.

3 Dev wanted to follow Matajee but did not go after Mamajee's assurance, here he did not show any concern that he should have picked Sona up from empty Delhi street.

4 Matajee had gone to a temple which is not deserted and it was not midnight. Sona was standing in front of a club without a phone at midnight When the traffic was thinning.

5 he had shown the same concern that he showed during Diwali when Matajee fainted before his HM, Sona was worried about Matajee too but Matajee did not sound concerned about Sona's injury. She was more bothered about her temple trip that got delayed. Even mamijee showed more concern than her.

6 some people who I know very closely are of the same age group as Ishwari. They also have DiL and SiLs. They all felt that Ishwari's obsession is borderline creepy.
