@ Lakshmi. I did read your post and agree with you. That blurb about Sonakshi was in reference to the posts which referred to my light hearted posts this time around. The reason is Dev and the way he took control from Sonakshi. As Sam said he took away her version of the narrative in this remarriage track. By frequently saying that I am doing this for your happiness, Dev has made sure that Sonakshi doesn't write herself as the martyr. He is forcing her to write the story from his pov where he is the one who is being sacrificed. Sonakshi is not just trapped in her love and jealousy, but is also trapped in terms of her righteousness and her pride. The only way out for her from this saga is the acceptance of the truth. And Sonakshi telling the truth is something that I am looking forward to. 😃

@Deepa. Let's agree to disagree. I do not find Bijoy as neither a protective nor overprotective father. 😊

@ Deepa


I am sorry if you are offended by the tone of my expression. May be I got carried away by the fact that you mentioned Sonakshi as struck up with memories that too from Bijoy's point of view. Sonakshi's pretension is reaching the peak . Dev is forced to do all this against his wish, I know he is steering his way through this in his own way but still it is a tedious process where he is not sure when he can meet with success by making Sonakshi express herself.


About Bijoy I would like to agree to disagree. What Asha could see throughout seven years Bijoy turned blind not to see that I mean his so called dearest daughter's pain.Yes Sonakshi did not tell him to what extent she is responsible to make Dev agree. I don't blame his family members for not disclosing him anything because they must have thought it is of no use since they knew how stubborn he is in his stand once he sticks up anywhere.


I don't think he is a better father at any point of time. In S1 he agreed with reluctance and in S2 he just turned his back to his daughter's truth. My father would have observed my innermost feelings with the slightest hint from my facial expressions and would have united roof and earth to remove my pain I would never compare my father with Bijoy who is insensitive to the point of getting selfish. He is not my choice for a good father leave alone being perfect.

Nice sharing views though we differ .

@Deepa, great post and good point of discussion. Sometimes what we think as boon may be too painful for others because it's about perspectives and how we see any situation based on our past experiences and priorities in life. A character like Bijoy may appear to see like a boon when we watch on screen or when we read in a story but from my experience it's really painful and too draining while handling such people. They are self made people and they feel proud of this fact but at the same time they are loud, unconvincable and becomes unreasonable sometimes.

I too have a bijoy in my life. My mom is like Bijoy but my dad is like asha. Initial three years of my marriage life is nothing less than a hell and I call it as my darkest phase of my life where I don't even want to peep in while going through my memory lane. Even when there is no hope also I didn't give up and to see a little ray of hope only it took three years and another three years to bring life back on track. If you ask me about the biggest challenge I have faced in that time period then without any doubt it's my mom. Trust me, handling issues in my life looks to be less painful than the mess created by the word wars between families. Because she sees me as her achievement in her life and she is very proud of that fact. When she saw me in pain the immediate conclusion by her is they don't deserve me. But I don't want to give up without even trying. You know the main problem with such parents, they think that their pain of seeing their kid in pain is more greater than their kid's actual pain.

My parents got to know the complete picture of my marriage life after one year of my marriage since I never shared about the happenings. When they got to know, my mom started scolding them and my dad started feeling guilty because mine was arranged marriage. I told my parents that we can't change the past but I don't want to give up on my dreams (having a happy family is my only dream since all my life went in hostels till I got married). I know it's impossible to convince my mom but my dad understood me, he said do what ever you want but always remember that we are there for you. Finally it took 3 yrs to see a ray of hope and another three years to bring life back on track. He is the same man who asked me after my marriage how I am cutting onions since he never allowed me to cut onions because they bring tears in my eyes. After my marriage, he saw me only with tears in the initial three years but he was there with me like a rock solid support in my tough times. Even today I think twice if my husband need to stay at my mom's place without me. Our experiences in life should bring maturity in us. As a parent, we should be our kids strength, if that's not possible then at least don't become their weakness.

Coming to bijoy, he was a overprotective father only till he didn't choose his pride and ego over his daughter's happy married life. People may say that he never saw her happy but I would like to say he always saw what he wants to see just like ishwari. When Dev came to apologise to him, he told asha that you are my wife and you should support me but how conveniently he forgot that his daughter also someone's wife and bahu and he should also respect that fact.

Great post.

I felt like I am reading my life before my eyes . Only difference is I have no Bijoy in my life thankfully. Both my father and mother stood by me in my initial years when I faced so much animosity from my in laws. But to my satisfaction I worked my way and achieved success. My father also never saw me do any kind of work at home but he bore with the situation and offered me moral support. Any father should help to join the family but Bijoy became instrumental in destroying Sonakshi's marriage.


In S2 knowing his daughter very well he is praying for Dev's marriage with someone else. Deepa said her father would have cursed Dev but my father would have gone to my husband and exposed my inability to live without him. So not even one percent I can understand Bijoy's point of view. Actually of all the ch,s of the show I can't stand only Bijoy. He irritates me. More than RR and Vicky .

It is just my point of view. Not intended to hurt anyone.

I agree with you, Lakshmi.
No father should be like bijoy.
Any father will wish happiness for his daughter.
For that , as you said, they would even go to son in law & tell him that his daughter can't live without him.
But , no , in bijoy's case , his pride & ego is more important.
I really wish asha was like sonakshi & should have left bijoy & gone.
Then , sona would have been brought up well, not headstrong like this.
Being independent is one thing; being arrogant is another thing.
I think sona needs a submissive husband who just listens to what she says.
Unfortunately, in our society that is not possible.
Especially in a middle class set up, children should be brought up in such a way that
they should know how to compromise.
Dancing on the top of your spouse may not be possible.
Again, nobody in dev's house expected her to cook or take care of daily chores.
Once Dev started going to office, once their honeymoon got cancelled, she should have got back to work.
She need not change herself.
That is why she got irritated & failed because that is not your original self.
I always advise my junior colleagues who are about to get married- don't pretend.
Don't project yourself as a person which u are not.
That would be difficult to maintain.
I am a very straight forward person.
But I don't go out of the way to please people.
I may not have so many friends.
But once they understand me, the bond that forms is unbreakable.
It took so many years to get accepted into my in laws family.
Now everyone knows my true self & they respect me for that.
What I am trying to say is, eventually over the period of time, iswari would have accepted sona.
She need not have put up with Mami's insults.
Should have given back to her.
Dev would have understood & he would have definitely supported also.
Marriage is a partnership.
U should be able to discuss freely anything & everything with each other.
As parents to a girl child, we should give them correct guidance & values in life.
I understand that a girl should not take any abuse just to be in marriage.
But at the same time , it should not be something to be thrown off on a whim.
Children can do mistakes. But as parents we should guide them.
Even when Dev told that get out . She should have given time . She knew dev's temper. He was always like that. What I mean is Dev is not a bad person.
After the talks also, this happens then there would a proper closure.
That is why all this counseling is for.
But for all that u need maturity.
Sorry for my long rant.

@lakshmi, thanks for your appreciation. As a parent if it's their responsibility to be our strength then as a kid it's our responsibility to provide clarity and clear picture to them. No parent wants anything bad to their kids but sometimes they get blinded by their insecurities. Many times people say dev never took stand for Sona, excluding infertility track that guy was always there with her infact he gave full control of their relationship to her, that's how much he trusted her. Sona disappointed me when she conveniently pushed all blame on him when things went out of her hand. In fact, I feel she never took any stand for Dev before her family especially before Bijoy and that guy never complained about this. And I feel the main reason for Bijoy's current fears or behavior is because of this Sona's attitude. Unless he knows what exactly she thinks or wants, I don't think even dev can do anything. Till now, no one knows exactly what she wants since no one saw her without her facade and everyone has their own perspective based on the facade they see.

Also here Bijoy is not blaming Dev for moving on , infact he is happily waiting for that day so Sona can be freed from this emotional baggage and thats why I said he is a better father to wish good for Dev even if its for selfish reasons compared to most normal fathers like mine because if am in Sona's position my father can't digest the fact that the guy is getting remarried while his daughter is adamant to live with his old memories. And I should be responsible for most of that fault for his behavior and thinking and so I blame Sona here for that ! Hope I was able to convey what I wanted to , if not lets agree to disagree and move on.[/I]</font>[/DIV]



I have to agree that Bijoy is happy that Dev is finally getting re-married and Sonakshi would be freed from the Dixit family forever. He is also happy that though Sonakshi has promised him that she has no feelings for Dev, now that he is likely to be bethrothed to someone else, ek bala tal gayi! But, little does he know that Dev has agreed only because of Sonakshi!!!! What would happen when Sonakshi creates tantrums and looses her sanity at Dev's mandap?? 😃

Hi dear ones...hope everything fine with all of you. So, before I go to my reply on Baba Bijoy, I am here with a request. On the mention of the sleeping pills matter in Friday episode, I was forced to go & rewatch the episode where Dev takes Sona's permission to have sleeping pills (Episode 70 of S1, 6th June 2016). I came across lots of dejavu moments there (Mami bringing a jewellery brochure to Ishwari and asking to chose a ring for Natasha, reference of sleeping pills, reference of not hiding anything from a friend, Dev deciding to get married to Natasha and informing it to Ishwari, First time Asha expressing her desire to write a story, trying Natasha's ring on Sona's fingers) and felt like the makers were trying to connect this episode with Thursday's & Friday's episode in many ways. But, I am not getting a clear picture to put it across in words. Hence, it's my request to all the wonderful writers here to re-watch these three episodes. I am sure you will also feel the same I felt and help me to express it out. Please let me out of this suffocation...
