Why?

Why did Dev and Sona have a conversation about Sonakshi's career? I mean I know Dev is suffocating her and asking her to shift her work place to their house so he can rest in peace that she is safe (😆) but I don't think he stopped her at any point from working? Dev in fact has always encouraged her to pursue her dreams even when she lost interest post marriage. He even told her in the first scene that he wants her to become a big name in the business field. Then why did it become a conversation about Sonakshi having a career of her own and not giving up everything cos her husband said so? If that was not weird enough, Dev even went ahead and questioned her about her responsibility towards Soha out of no where in the same scene just so the makers could plug in a woman empowerment message 😕 What is this track about? Dev's paranoia and over protective behavior I assume but why did we jump to a lecture on women making a name for themselves? Does every scene have to advocate a social image? 😆 Trust me am not ranting or bashing. Am just trying to understand their random conversation here. I really wish the makers don't mix up issues where on one hand we are seeing Dev go crazy and then on the other hand impart social messages about women being independent. Cos Dev's behavior has nothing to do with chauvinism and everything to do with his abandonment issues. Please give them proper dialogues which have a context 😕

I agree!

@NN07- The problem is not with what Sona or Dev said. It was a perfectly valid argument cos in a country like India, most seem to assume it is the sole duty of the mother to take care of the child while it's essentially both the parent's responsibility. But it made no sense in the context of the track. Dev has never stopped Sona from working. He has always taken pride in her career and achievements. Giving him lectures on women empowerment is not gonna cut it. The writers are going over board with the crazy Dev and practical independent Sona track IMO. Cos Dev in his paranoia is being blind to Sona's emotions and Sona is just not noticing that he is being abnormal. Talk to him, take him to a psychiatrist, fight, explain. Neither of them are making an effort yet they are ready to go out of the way for the rest of the family 😕

I agree that conversation was toatally random and did not fit in, he never said her to give up working but unfortunately seemed like makers wanted to give out a message on woman empowerment but failed to do so at least in my opinion, probably added just so that they can add one more attribute to Dev's over possessiveness and add drama.

As far giving out Social message unfortunately for me whenever the makers have tried to take up any of the social issues they have failed to do justice to it. Be it the infertility track where instead of showing how a husband supports his wife they showed how a mother in law forces them for a child. They never showed the struggles of Sonakshi as a single mother. Interrelated the live in and Ishwari re working track where as it should have been dealt separately.

I though just have one doubt, are the makers undermining the role of homemakers, do you set an example for your children only by working. Asha is a classic example wherein she is a homemaker as well as a successful author today. Why do they have to demean one just to give out a social message.

Apologies for the long rant, just my POV, no offence.

I think cvs just want to ensure that viewers dont get confused that dev has any regressive thoughts that women should stay at home. They just want to clear it for viewers...

Dev's "soha responsibility " is just an excuse to keep sonakshi at home. He knows very well that sona is very responsible.
Not that sona asked dev " is soha only my responsibility?" .. now bells will start ringing and he would come back andsay.. "sona you are brilliant.. yes soha is my responsibility too.. so i am shifting my office to home as well.. so that we both can be available... but u going out and risking your life to make a career is out of question..lets do whatever we want at home... 😎 🤣

Sona phas gayi yaar. Kuch bhi bolo dev logic baat karega.. hmm

I really liked the episode today...getting to know more about Dev's paranoia and him trying to justify everything using Soha. Dev also knows Sona is not liking it but bcoz of her mistake of not telling him d truth, he is not giving her weightage to her pov.

After a very long time...happy to see Sona back to being sensible n sensitive and all her counter arguements were right on point 👏 n like Dev she also took Soha's example to make him understand. Lot of their arguements are very typical of working women homes in India..n really enjoyed all their talks n fights today.

She wants to do her work the best she can so Soha wud look upto her. Fair enough. And she believes her work will suffer if she completely works from home. Her work...n so it shud be her decision coz only she knows abt her work. Do not confuse Sona's aversion of working from home is like insulting someone who is a homemaker. She just wants to do her work her way, sometgshe has done for last 7yrs n its been successful too.

Both Sona n Dev are able to notice that something not correct with the other's pov and they did try to talk about it. But its just d beginning n this will only be resolved thru more n more talks n confrontations.

Regd Sona not able to see Dev's weird behavior..she is indeed noticing it n kinda understand where its coming from but then its too early to ring alarm bells. Also at times Dev again becomes so considerate n his normal self..that his weird obsession takes a back seat.

Confusing track... While I support Sonakshi's stance to be a working mom.. she doesn't get it that Dev is NOT obligated to share parenting responsibilities as Sona didn't give him that right.. Legally, she is Suhana Bose whose father's name doesn't exist in her birth certificate..Hope someone shows her the Mirror and pulls her out of denial world...
