See, Dev ignoring Sona is not in his blood at all. He could be angry, loving, hateful, irritated, or passionate.. but ignore her? No way. But still, the season started with Dev saying idiotic things like, which husband will pay attention to his wife after years? See right there? Poor writing...because you know, which husband will pay attention after 50 years also? Dev will. It's just who he is. Sona is his obsession.
This season the writers are making the characters switch per episode. One episode, Dev is horrible, next episode, he has made up for everything. Then third episode, he does something horrible again, then the episode after, all good again. This isn't how a character should be written.
Also, the writers don't seem to have a lot of clue about the dynamics Dev shared with everyone else. If Asha was in the hospital, I simply don't see how Dev would think, "oh Asha Ma is sick and in the hospital, but I need to go to my seminar." Sorry, not Dev. If she hadn't been hospitalized yet and he had gone, and she got worse and was admitted later, that I can understand. But it's like the writers didn't know the bond Dev shared with Asha.
As for eating Sona's food, he should have eaten what she had made, but I feel the writers have manufactured a situation where he eats Sanjana's lunch. Otherwise Dev does like what Sona makes.. after the pills OD, she had made him soup, saying it was just the way he loved. He ate that. So obviously he has no issue with her cooking. This lunch in the office was just to increase Sanjana's interest in him.
