Like the majority of us, I also don't like the idea of bride swap.
I want my hero to be a hero and do the needful, stop this dastardly wedding. But Abhi seems to be bedazzled at the moment by his nobility and principles and is in a romantic daze that he is " fulfilling somebody's death wish" or " upholding a promise" at the expense of everything else, his life, his love, his happiness, and passed a verdict on the life of his love as well. If he doesn't stick to his convictions, anybody can do this " death wish" thing to him and manipulate him. Let's just say if God forbid Daadi somehow is on the death bed now and asks him to marry Pragya as her last wish, then what will he do? So this whole premise of fulfilling somebody's death wish at the cost of your convictions, happiness is nonsense in my opinion.
And according to the writers, his memory cannot return yet, he can't be told that Pragya is his wife nor can the villains be exposed.
So like everybody else I am making peace with the bride swap, not justifying it by any means. Sorry guys, have to put up with me and my examples one more time.
Let us say that a man gets his leg chopped off or amputated. This can have more than one possible scenario
# 1 Scenario: An innocent man ( Abhi obviously ) gets hunted down by an assailant ( witch ) who chops off his leg and so the man has to suffer the consequences of this traumatic amputation by unhygienic means, such as bleeding, infection, surgical procedures ( divorce ) and death.
#2 Scenario: An innocent man ( Abhi again ) gets hunted down and the man is involved in a motor vehicle accident and suffers a crush injury and is unconscious ( bedazzled, ML Abhi ), and is brought by his family ( Purab and daadi ) to a surgeon ( Pragya). The surgeon, out of duty for her patient, performs a life saving amputation to save his life. It is painful, but hopefully doesn't have the above consequences barring unforeseen events.
In both the scenarios, the end result is that the man ended up with an amputated limb, but can we equate them both? Is the surgeon and the assailant the same? NO, because the intentions are different. The surgeon is doing her duty with the best intentions of the patient at heart. She is not willingly amputating his leg.
I am sorry guys that I had to equate amputation of a limb to bride swap and marriage. Life and my profession have taught me not to be too dogmatic about how life turns out and how people handle those events. This is how I am going to look at bride swap and make peace with it for the time being. Sorry if I hurt any feelings.
