This is a fundamental flaw in desi tv because they are daily shows and usually aim to run for years, they never will evolve the characters. If this was a logical show then we would have had a more complex character in IShweri, I started watching the show to see how she would play out and Neha was someone who would give it back to Dev, Ishwari and was perfect flow.
Sonakshi was just meant to be a catalyst to flare up the equation Dev had with his mom. Which is why the louu story was so shabbily written . Or you tell me how the heck Sona would forget Dev controlling her professional and personal space when he was an employer for his mom. Why would that behaviour and conditioning go for a woman or a relationship just coz it's louu.
But coz hot leads and chemistry worked, the show ended up making a caricature of Ishwari coz atyaachari MIL sells but because it's Supriya and they don't want to go negative. But will keep playing off her to sell drama and drag the show endlessly which is why Dev will never have a spine against his mom.
Sona and Dev are endgame so the pati-patni respect or the drama around it doesn't amuse or entertain me. CVs will have them together in the end toh why bother.
I am still very against the idea of keeping the child away from the father. Forget rationality , it's plain lazy writing and does no service to Sonakshi's character sketch . Because the focus shifts to Dev's reaction, Ishwari and the child. Sonakshi's basic point as to why she moved out will remain ignored. Dev's bonding with the child will be the new USP.
Also, I don't agree with the funda she gave the 7-8 year old child the 'choice"..heck that child will never know what it lost and what could have been worked around. This was a plot device to have cute segments of dad-child and Sona falling in louu with Dev again. Eventually.
Pre-nup, custody..meh, desi tv screws up laws nicely.
