Beautifully Growing apart as strong parallel lines

Much as we'd hoped that Devakshi will grow together , not just as a couple , but as individuals as well. We hoped and expected Sona would learn to live indepently , establish and run a big business venture , attain success by her own merits , help her family's financial status to improve so that the likes of GKB and Viky could not taunt her middle class back ground ( as they say shut ,em up with actions , not words. ) and learn to place her self respect above every thing else , even above her all consuming love for her prince charming . .We hoped and expected to see Dev growing out of his mother's toxic influence , their co dependent bond , become aware about the leech mentality and utter selfishness of his so-called-family members , learn their true face and put each one of them in their own place.
That was basically our wish list summary because if only these could happen all other things like mutual trust and respect ( I always believed Sona didn't fought for her own respect and let every one including Dev trample all over her , one of the major reasons their marriage failed. She put up with all the crap for too long so that by the time she put her foot down , she's already reached her breaking points and the relationship was tattered. ) , proper communication ,prevention of frequent misunderstandings , not letting either of their families interfere or have last word on their marital lives etc. etc. will follow automatically. As we say in medical science , once you identify and cure the major pathological process itself the symptomatic relief will follow automatically and minor associate ailments will go away as body heals itself.
But here we see , as long as Dev and Sona were together they absolutely failed to achieve this personal growth arcs , instead of being each other's strength , they just weakened each other like corrosives and it inevitably led to a disaster. We can't blame Vicky and GKB and Ishwari for breaking their marriage . No we can't. You can't break a relationship unless they let you . In real life there'd always be harmful elements around a couple , we all know that from experience , you just don't give them an inch , that's the way to safeguard a marriage.
It's 100 % their own fault. ( Please note I'm not blindly blaming Dev alone. Like I already said , Sona should've been firm and much less understanding with Dev and his family from the very beginning. Bending over backwards to please her husband n in laws got her literally no where. )
Well now let me come to the main topic ( yes it was the preview till now ! 😆) .
I still don't know how the story line will progess from now on . But from what we can gather from the promo and spoilers is that- Dev has FINALLY learned to live for only his own happiness , we can safely say he's no more a mamma's boy becoz we all know Ishwari will never allow this new Dev Dixit , with always one or more girls hanging from his arms , and he's stopped being all sold to family-happiness-is-my-aim-of-life. He's full of life , energy , confidence and mirth of youth.
Now look at Sona , this is the Sona we'd all wanted to see . How beautiful poised confident successful ( look at that glitzy car! Wow !😲 ⭐️ 👏 ) she's become. She's learned to live for herself too , no more will she let anyone walk all over her self respect , she's earning and supporting her own family , bringing up her child single handedly and no more looks at the world with silly blind folded rosy tints or lives in the fairy tale world of prince charmings and happily ever after. She no more needs a man to give meaning to her life. She's her own person.
I'll trememdenously applaud both of their indiviual growths.
But if their separation can achieve all this , why get back together at all ?? For the child ?? That'd be extremely forced and stupid . Are kids to divorced parents not growing up in the western n now even Indian society ?? And they're growing up as good wholesome proper solid human beings as well. So what's the point ?? No body would believe the "We need to be together for the proper upbringing of our child. " They could always divide the money needed and share the custody , without coming together , just by reaching a mutual and legal understanding ensuring child get care n love and time from both parents. Plus if they come together for this reason there'll always be a "what-if-Not-the-child." question hanging between their equation.
They've only been together for an year or even less than that . And have spent 7 yrs apart and survived those 7 yrs to come out stronger and for the better. In real life perspective , they would realize that they'd probably always feel a little empty with out each other , but they don't exactly need other to live life , as they'd once thought. Once you learn to stay with out that once-most-important person , she/he ceases to be most important and becomes a cherish memory where we don't go back for real.
Wouldn't it be all together better , more realistic and more path breaking , if they regain their friendship , but realize and decide that they're better off with out each other, with out being back to a couple ?? That they can be beautiful parallel roads running side by side , never crossing or clashing or merging together again ??
All sorts of opinions are welcome

It will be path breaking if what you say happens.

Unfortunately this is a serial. If they had to lead separate lives why show a leap. They could have ended with the divorce. All fans would cried , cursed & moved on to another serial.

The makers know their money is in devakshi only. Most people are fed up with ishwari hence no sign of her in the promo. They know that we all tune into see devakshi at least most of us. Also I have noticed if they pull the plug on a serial they always end it on a happy note.

First of all a stupendous post.

If they portray what you said it is indeed path breaking TV because in reality if in a relationship both of them pulls each other down that relationship is doomed.

I for one do not think they will show path breaking TV and let me tell you why it is all about money and if they show this there will be a few of us saying great but a lot more who will say no

They are veering from their initial audience to two kinds of audiences.

One who will swoon at how hot the hero looks and of course the heroine too and a lot of cliche romance
Second one will be an audience who will sympathize with the mother because they will say no mother deserves this yadda yadda and there comes the baby the miraculous baby who will heal everything

So both these audience will be satisfied and I will not be surprised if ratings go up.

It is just sad for people me included who invested a lot of time on a show which struck personal chords. Will I watch this show maybe but not as a continuation of the other but maybe just what it is a romantic drama

I'm not absolutely against their coming back together , but I'd say let there be a whole new story or very very strong reasons for them to reunite , and sadly , I really wish there were no child factored in , as it'd automatically rise the suspicion ( and correctly so ) that had it not been for the child , they'd not have bothered at all . After all so many couples sustain their marriages even today in India and some in West too , just for the kids , so why'd Dev-Sonakshi be any thing special ?? What'd set their bond or love apart from those so many ??
It's obvious that none of them are in depression or broken or even too much sad with out each other , yup , might be a little broken around the edges , but so many of us have such little broken pieces hidden our hearts and we survive move on and find happiness with those broken pieces in situ.
It's not like they can't survive with out each other , they damn well could.
Let there be a sensible logical and apprehensive story line that is appreciable from the POV of modern society, before they become DEvakshi again.
Or let them stay apart and continue their amazing personal growth.

It will be truly path breaking if they show this route.but we are expecting too much from indian shows.
They always sell this happy ever after.That's why i was satisfied with Friday's episode because they ended their toxic relationship.But CV's work different way , They need "DRAMA" for running this show. It's clear their main aim is to bring TRP'S and cater certain fan's demand.

Now in this leap my only expectation is showing couple introspection about where they went wrong in their relationship and that too rationally . but What we will get another round of blaming and hating 😆for example Making dev hating sona for leaving him without introspecting about why she left him in the first place. why she stopped trusting him.

Thank you so much . You've always been very supportive of my posts from the very beginning 🤗( by my previous UN was AnnaPaquinFan 😳 ) especially during their 1st separation track.
I understand that they just want to cash in the chemistry of the leads and it's absolutely gonna work in their favor I'm sure of that , judging by how much gaga the entire forum is already after one single promo , and already all the crap they'd thrown at us shoved under the carpet like yesterday's dust 😆 , it's hardly expected that many people will delve deeper than the chemistry and spark and all that . 😉
But I want to ask all of them a honest question , would it give them the satisfaction completely if there's no validity of their love story any more ??
Would it not nag and nibble at their subconscious that in real life once two people separate and stay apart for such a long time and even flourish during this period , they never again gets back together ?? It just doesn't happen. Can any one say they know of such a real life scenerio ?? I'd take their words as truth with out question and shut up.
Because I've neither known , nor seen , nor heard , nor read any such case.

This selling happily ever after , even after many things breaking and tearing apart couples and then showing no rhyme and reason or even healing process they jump back into each other's arms after playing "I hate you , you hate me. " tango for a while - this is standard issue Indian Telly set up , which is absolutely childish and unrealistic and irrelevant to real life scenerio.
People live apart , grow apart and then learn to move on and find happiness , that's how it happens, why not have guts to show the reality ?? 😕

Oh hi I remember you. You write beautifully as ever.

You are asking very valid and pertinent questions but all I am saying is ...since I am a lot older this show is not reality or does not bear any semblance of reality anymore so if we expect it we will be disappointed. I wouldn't be surprised if this show extends if they do well.

Btw I love lady Macbeth one of my favorite characters. Good to see you back

What a fabulous post!!

I was also thinking along d same lines yesterday. When dev and sonakshi were together, they brought out their best and worst from each other. Both were losing their identity in their relationship and were always on the receiving ends.

What we can see from leap is that they both have become a better person than they were before. Sona has found her own identity and her strong self and Dev has got his much needed freedom.

Then why would they exactly need to get back in a relationship where they will face the previous problems all over again? Is love always about being with that person..? Can't it be about finding yourself and cherishing the good memories?

I also have a another line of thought. If they both could stay 7 years without each other.. I am sure they could have done it their whole lives also.

If dev and sonakshi meet other accidently and their emotions for each other erupt once again... That doesn't mean they just HAVE to get back together. I mean it is just very normal for anyone to get nostalgic and emotional about their past memories and especially about their first love.. It never gets forgotten. But does it mean you agai decide to go through the same path? I don't think so.

As far as the role of Dev and sonakshi's daughter is concerned... I am very much skeptical about it. You just mirrored my thoughts when you said that a child there days does not really need his /her parents to be in a relationship to have a good upbringing.

The reunion of a couple just for the sake of child seems the most stupid thing to me. Do people don't get divorced or separated when they already have children?

I think I have really lost my track now.. But the more you think about it.. The more you are caught up in this mess.
