Since we both are in agreement that ishwari may not have accepted sonakshi if not for Khatri, let me rephrase my question - what would dev have done if not for the mentioned scenario? Dev has time and again proved he wouldn’t do anything that his mother doesn’t like, so how much of an effort would he have actually taken to bring sonakshi back in his life? I would like to say fight for her, but then I know that will never happen…
There’s one thing I would like to disagree though wrt Jatin-suhana. I think he was bothered by jatin being a proxy father, because in one of the episodes he clearly states how much he dislikes jatin’s involvement in suhana’s life and even goes further to forbid it. It’s sonakshi who argues with him otherwise and explains jatin’s role in suhana’s life.
This I definitely agree with, he treated her horribly and she deserves more from a partner. I doubt Dev would have fought for her if not for the mentioned scenario, he doesn't have it in him. That being said, if things weren't the way it was, if they had had a mature adult conversation (too much to expect, I know), if Sona budged even an inch, I feel like Dev would've happily left his house and his mother for her.
They weren't on particularly good terms at the time, and he blamed her for what his life had come to. If they took their time to speak and understand each other, fallen in love again, Suhana or not- Dev would've walked out on his mother in my opinion. I think them not talking, and him finding out about Suhana brought him closer to Ishwari.
