*Season 2, Week 5* Analysis Thread - Page 20

Hello everyone !! This is a great thread I must say for it is so conducive for peaceful analysis.Anyways I had a question.It has nothing to do with the current track but is just a general question.How many of you really think that Dev has slept around with women in these 7 years.A guy who is still so ultra-possesive about Sonakshi-I really find it hard to believe that he would have opened up himself with some other lady.He could have casually dated women,but people often do that to garner emotional support when they are going through a turbulent phase mentally.Also I feel it is too much for the creatives of an Indian show to highlight a male lead sleeping around and then re-uniting with the love of his life.Also his behaviour with Shruti clearly showed that he was miffed even if a female other than Sona touched him.His conversation with Golu regarding Sona after the earthquake and also the way he defended Sona in front of Ishwari after the goons attack episode just makes it incredibly difficult for me atleast to even think of him even cozily touching another girl forget being physical with her.I just want a uniform consensus on this matter so that there is no unnecessary debate regarding Dev's character.I would really love it if at the time of re-union Sona questions Dev whether he has ever been physical with some other girl considering that she knows about him having many girlfriends.Please reply everyone if you could.

Cheers !! Today's episode is massive in the context of the story and I hope low IQ Dev connects the dots and realises Soha's true identity.

So make a mast GM post revolving " How 7 % doesn't equate baby in Shimla for Dev" to relieve my stress😆 (Thank you Payal for the idea😛)

I am not suggesting that Dev and Sonakshi marry different people. But as they are now, it is not possible for them to even see each other without the baggage of their past. Anytime Dev and Sonakshi have a conversation, it is with taunts and hidden anger. They are still blaming the other person completely without realizing their own contributions to the breakup.

Only when Soha is seen struggling will Sonakshi stop with her 'I left the decision to Soha and she did not want to meet her dad' chant. Only when Dev sees Sonakshi's struggle through Soha's eyes will he realize the pain endured by her and how he was responsible for it. Jatin and the new girl is for Dev and Sonakshi to realize that they are hurting other people in their quest of ego and one upmanship. It is not just enough that Dev and Sonakshi love one another, they need to accept it too. Not for others, but themselves. That they cannot live without the other.

This time when Dev and Sonakshi come together, it should be on their terms irrespective of what Bijoy or Ishwari think. For that they need to have a sane conversation setting aside their egos and clear the misunderstandings. Soha will be the reason for them to do so.

Hope I made sense in what I wanted to convey. 😊

Hi

Glad you are enjoying the discussions here. That is the beauty of having polite viewpoints. We dont need a uniform consensus.

In fact, my view is quite different. I would love for Dev & Sona to not be devakshi celibate for the last 7 years.. They are afterall humans and 35 & 33 respectively.

Some more views here

See you around

I will try to put my views here. I hope I make sense :

1. The general myth is that Men are different from women. For women sex is equated with love while for men sex is equated with physical needs. But from what I have observed in life if there is love and emotions involved for both men and women sex is a part and parcel of only love.

2. But then we are talking about a scenario where the couple is together. Where one partner dies, there also people stay faithful.

3. But Where they have parted and parted acrimoniously, may be a man can have relations just for satisfying his physical needs. In Dev's case it seems impossible because he is too involved with sona on every level and still in love. But then I am not a man and really can't say anything with certainty about the male psyche. I will always look at the situation from a woman's angle.

3. Now coming to Sonakshi I can confidently bet my every penny that she never had relationship with any guy after Dev. Reason no. 1 she still loves him.

4. Reason 2 Being a middle class female born and brought up in India, I can easily judge her thought process. In India women are trained psychologically not to have any needs outside marriage (at least of my generation) . Whether it is right or wrong I don't know, but it is. And it is very tough to think or act opposite to your basic mental make up.

I have been divorced for 10 years but for me it is impossible to even think in that direction. Try suggesting to me that I can take a partner for my needs and I will take it as the grossest insult possible, an aspersion on my character. It is gandi baat, something women of good families don't do.

This is the average middle class Indian woman psyche and that is why Sona was so hasty in assuring Ishwari in yesterday's episode that she had never had an affair though she didn't owe her any explanation. It was not a matter of pacifying Ishwari, it was a matter of reinforcing her own character.

Remarriage is totally different and I am not considering it here.
