Hi Gemini,
In season 1, all of the leads used their heads and not their hearts to make decision.
Ishwari -- After Dev - Sonakshi's marriage, the only one time she listened to her heart and told the truth was during breaking Riya's proposal and her talk with Sonakshi. Every other time she used her head which was clouded with insecurity. That was the reason she trusted Vickky over Dev regarding evicting Bose family from their house. That was also the reason why maami and Vickky were successful in instigating Ishwari successfully.
Easwari used her head to cheat during the Pre Nup signature, She used her head to get Ritwik alliance , she used her Head to convince Sona to marry Dev, She used her head to absolve herself of any wrongdoing in the break up of Dev and Sona both times. She used her head to convince Dev to give Vicky the job even though she knew that he was good for nothing more to show her one up manship over Sona
Dev -- He also used his head and not his heart. In his heart he knew he could never do something like evicting Bose family from their house. But he chose to listen to his head which said "you were drunk. You probably don't remember it, but you are the reason they are on the street". When Sonakshi comes to the farm house he starts off by apologizing for something he kind of knows that he did not do it. If he did not start that way, probably Sonakshi would have listened to him at least a little. She might have even listened to his explanation regarding the prenup.
Dev was a very emotional person so he used his heart when he broke up with Natasha to pursue Sona, Broke up with Sona in a knee jerk reaction where he was purely taken over by emotions..no rational thinking, he used his heart when he lied about Sona being pregnant, he used his heart in an emotional state when he threw Sona out when Easwari fell ..so in essence used his heart more than the head..especially when head needed to be used
Sonakshi -- Since the slapping of Bijoy, Sonakshi mainly listened to her head than her heart. When Vickky says that it was Dev's order to evict them from their home, she immediately believes that he is capable of that. It is Saurabh who reminds her that Dev is not like that and she should talk to him. Till the time Dev says get out, Sonakshi did listen partly to her heart. But when their family is evicted she stopped listening to her heart completely. Her head took over and she believed Vickky instead of Dev.
Sona used her heart when she decided to marry Dev without solving the main issue of the breakup, she used her heart when she tried too hard to fit in the Dixit household..especially when she wanted to please Easwari because all signs were there that whatever she did Easawri was not going to accept it. She used her heart when she agreed for infertility treatment and the Simla trip even knowing what that trip was for, used her heart when she refused to speak to Dev after her fathers insult, used her heart when she believed that Dev could evict her ...because if she knew the real Dev using her head she would know that he would never do what he did..so really took an emotional decision..a knee jerk one too
But in this season, it looks like Dev and Sonakshi's head is cleared. They have the baggage of the past, but also are not that influenced by others when it comes to themselves. They have learnt to use their instincts and their heart instead of what they hear from others(parents, brother, maami, etc. ). When they meet and things start coming out(and it will come out!!! The baggage they are carrying is too big for them not to confront each other), they will listen to their hearts and not their head anymore.
I think this reason they will use their heads to gauge the situation before jumping heart first because they have been hurt..and if they only use the head they can lose what the heart desires for in real life we do need to use BOTH the head and the heart depending on situations
Anyway I think in this discussion there is no right or wrong it is all about perceptions..Thanks againJust my take... 😃
