Exactly - he is gradually wearing away at her self-confidence. This is a classic symbol of abuse. But is this going to be acknowledged on the show? Oh no - it's just going to be another "passionate love-hate romance". There will be an arc of half-hearted "redemption" for the male lead that is mostly comprised of some longing glances, self-flagellation on Abhi's part and some sad background music. Sorry guys, I am getting very cynical nowadays!

I like the way you have put this. I cannot understand her mentality but I agree that this is what she's beginning to believe.

There will definitely be no acknowledgement of his personality flaws instead like you said there will be a headlong diametric jump from "I want to kill you" to "you are my saath janam ke soulmate", some coy glances from her and some burning looks from him and all will be forgiven and forgotten.

Thanks :) I cannot watch the show unless I attribute some kind of logic (not accurate and perhaps not what the CVs intend for us to take away) to her totally pitiful and subservient behavior.

So it means that in the guise of redemption he could say and do anything he wants , make her feel inferior, demean her and abuse her mentally and emotionally and get away with it easily just because he man.
Does this means his redemption worth more than her self respect .
What a male chauvinist world is indian serial ( sorry if I offend anyone).

1. Hypocrite - a person who engages in the same conduct he condemns.
2. Enigma - a person who is mysterious, a puzzle difficult to understand.
It's not difficult to understand which category Mr. Rockstar falls into. He is a blatant cheater kicking his wife out for...wait for it...cheating!

Btw all the MCP talk surprises me. Why are you all so upset that Abhi can treat this poor girl so badly? It's a Ekta Mam show after all and she has done more for misogyny than any MCP has ever or could ever do!

I don't know what he is...😛 But after last night he is definitely on the path to realise that maybe this woman who is his wife by rituals means something to him??

His hypocrisy level came down a few points when he questioned himself about this whole incident affecting him so much when he doesn't even consider Pragya his wife.

At times, you don't realize how wrong you are until and unless you see someone else doing the same thing.

I for sure don't want him to be getting a safe way out of all this but let's look at whatever is happening from this POV - it's actually a self-realization process.

that is what i was wondering can't he digest the fact that even pragya is a human and she has rights to love...
he used to think pragya is selfish and loves to attract rich guys now what about suresh he is neither rich nor handsome...
abhi should get his thinkings clear before blaming pragya..

He is abusive, the CVs are afraid to go all the way so they have made him borderline abusive, physically, he doesn't hit her or belt her but he subjects her to verbal abuse every day. People when subjected to that kind reviling on a daily basis lose their confidence and begin to believe they are deserving of such treatment and this is probably what has happened to Pragya. She has turned from a confident woman to a mouse that cowers every time he threatens her. She has begun to believe he is right and she is wrong.



That's always been my response when I hear someone say it's not his fault she doesn't speak up anymore. Yeah to an extent it is. No one's psyche would remain intact after having been duped into a sham marriage (after multiple heartbreaks before), being forced to stay in that martiage by outside circumstances (her mother), having your husband take advantage of the fact you are forced to stay in that marriage (he knew he could torture her and she wouldn't leave), repeatedly being harassed by other in-laws. Is it any wonder that one good act for her and her family, and suddenly she's in "love?" (I still laugh about this insta-love)


ETA: you guys are scaring me with this talk of Abhi's redemption. Am I wrong to hope he will truly suffer (indian soap novice speaking)?

Nah, he will suffer for a second maybe before thanking his good fortune and daadi for bagging him a wonderful wife. The pendulum will swing to the other extreme, he will be tender and loving in his apologies, Pragya will shush him amidst some intense looks and background music and that will be the extent of his suffering.
