Well, if you are tired of discussing where Dev went wrong today, then I don't see the point taking this discussion any further. Every incident I mentioned in my comment is based on current scenario, not seven years old saga because there is no point in restating the obvious once again.
Dev's claims were lies, not because of what happened seven years ago but based on what happened now.
Soha herself said that her mother gave her a choice to meet her father. She didn't take it. - Current situation that Dev is aware of.
Making Sonakshi going in circles when Soha mentioned that she is worried that her father won't be keep her happy because he wasn't good for her mother which means that she doesn't want to see her mother harassed. - Current situation that Dev is aware of.
The ethic statement was even bigger lie. - Current situation that everyone is aware of.
So he knew the facts and he knew his daughter's wish. Did he respect her feelings and refrained from harassing Sonakshi? No.
What would you say for Sona if despite knowing how much Soha loves her father and how much his happiness matters to her, Sonakshi harassed Dev even for justified anger?
Exactly!!! Then we would call her a bad parent. Because regardless how legitimate the anger is in people's mind, a good parent keeps their personal vendetta aside and treat the other parent with respect whom the child loves.
So either Dev is vengeful and a bad parent who only thinks about his own feelings or swallows his anger and be a good parent because for him his daughter's happiness comes first even over his own vendetta.
And we both know which one of these are Dev as of now. He doesn't know the game Ishwari played, but he knew the straight information Soha gave him. He should have followed that.
Anyways, he doesn't want to force Soha, that's good. It would have only alienated her farther.
But it's only the beginning. When I see Dev being a good father, I will say it. As of today, he was not. And this post and discussion is on today's episode.
