Dev Dixit Decoded by Shaavi - Page 5

Awesome analysis. Thanks Sabita and shaavi.

In childhood I had read about an experiment where lion cubs were imprisoned since childhood. First they were kept in iron cages. They made a lot of effort to get out but ultimately failed. Then they were deliberately kept in plastic or bamboo cages so weak, they could have broken them in one push. But the lions didn't even make an effort. They were the prisoners of the mentality that they can't break free of these cages.

Another case is if a goat kid which is brought up in the same cage as a lion. He is not allowed to be eaten as the lion is tied but the will to live is sucked out of the goat kid.

Same way Ishwari too sucked out the life from Dev by psychologically raping him. I don't have any other word for what she did. She sucked out his free will, his desire to live, to enjoy, to be himself.

Whenever after marriage, he tried to be himself, she again started her psychological torture, as she knew it would activate Dev's gut reactions.

And such habits are not easy to break. Dev's entire psyche was trained to follow Ishwari, to look upon her as Goddess, to rever her.

Much like those women in the satsangs who happily chant this verse of ramcharitmanas by tulsidas - 'Dhor ganwar shudra pashu naari, yeh sab tadan ke adhikari'

So trained to chant, that we forget we are abusing ourselves.

It takes a major event to come out of such psychological training. In Dev's case it was loosing Sona. That is why I am sympathising with him now a days. Because he has at last managed to come out of Ishwari's control and has realised what he has lost

I will start loving and respecting him the day he understands and acknowledges his role in his breakup.

Sabita,

Thank you... for making this thread. This makes so much sense on so many levels...

Shaavi... Kudos!! Amazing writeup . Brilliant analysis.

"Dev held Ishwari as the primary person responsible for his pain while the Dev Dixit held Sonakshi responsible for his current condition."

This makes so much sense now...

Thanks for an amazing writeup.

Kudos! Absolutely amazing analysis of Dev and Dixit!

eashwari is the evil master! She has groomed Dev to be under command so he can provide a lavish life for her and her daughters!

I doubt even the writers put this much thought and complexities when creating Dev dixit!

Just to add something - somebody make sure that manta patnaik sees this - with due credit to Shaavi of course. Girl, you are one hell of a writer and a diehard KRPKAB fanatic 😆

While reading this it was a clear picture of the turmoil the prince is going through... It was almost to the extent of two different characters but it the reality it was one individual ...but dev had always said to sona he was selfish and wanted her to himself... and he had already made up his mind what he wanted...but sona never said anything ...and I don't think she really understood him...when you looked at the wedding night they fought primarily because of ishwari but sona could have said to him Ithat she understood what he was trying to do but sometimes it is necessary to speak to each other...but she didn't she got upset and again left him to himself...when they should have been happy...when she kept the fast against his wish...he again give in...yes she was the calm inside of him because he saw her as his strength... Dev dixit was on a journey to become dev the hurdles were to much they both kept on making false promises but when it was time to cash in on the promises neither could keep their promise to each other...

That night in the farmhouse when he chose sona...she did not trust him her rage and anger took over that she trusted Vikki words...in the episodes after shimla she did not give him a fair chance again I am not condoning the slap but she refuse to speak to him and I felt there all hell broke loose...I still think sona should have spoken to dev...and I still maintain she was out of place to return the cheque it should have been sharub returning the cheque to dev but then again we won't have gotten season 2.,,but I think dev is back and dev dixit died that night in the farm house...dev is back stronger and I think he will challenge his lady love to win her back and he knows this task is hard...but he may also see sona business not being able to sustain itself in the current economic downturn and he will rightfully give her what was always hers ...but it maybe he will leave it to suha and sona the trustee but he will have a watchful eye on it...he maybe the fun loving dad to suha and look after her while sona conquers the world...it would be nice to see him taking suha to the PTA...it would be nice role reversal for Hindi drama,...

👏 , what a post! U need a standing ovation. Shaavi u have psychoingrssed into Dev's character.

Such a deep evaluation. Each word is true and truly represents Dev. Probably this is the reason no one could ever hate Dev beacuse those split of personalities was so complicated that at best u could always sympathise with him.

Once again congratulation on such an amzing analysis
