Current Prarthana is a stupid non entity and I don't understand why she is doing what. What more does she want to know? This entire track has her behaving weirdly, no one will think that she truly loves him. She is lucky she is with Shivansh, he has a lot of patience and his love does not fade away even when he is angry and hurt (we have seen it with Smita).
From Shivansh’s side, yes, the only “mistake” is that he isn’t putting an outright stop to the marriage talk. But even that is layered. He told Sonalika from the very beginning that he doesn’t see her that way, that he will never give her the place in his life that belongs to Prarthana,he doesn't want to marry her. She knew his stance, and yet she chose manipulation. She played the guilt card, blackmailed him emotionally, and pushed him into a corner with absurd statements like “rituals karlo, phir bhale mandap se uth jana.”
That line itself proves that even she knows Shivansh doesn’t want to marry her — but she is weaponising circumstances, his silence, and his own wounds to corner him.
And moreover he is putting other' s happiness before his own as he said... what is the point of making others' heart break when Prarthana herself is saying this... This thinking is flawed but goes with his character only...
Now, if we look at Shivansh in this phase. He isn’t hiding anything. His every word, every gesture, every ounce of care, desperation, and concern is reserved for Prarthana. His world literally begins and ends with her. Even in his brokenness, there’s clarity — she is it for him. Anyone watching can see where his heart lies. His affection isn’t subtle; it’s blazing. His pain when she’s hurt, his longing when she’s distant, his frustration at her coldness — all of it screams his love.
And then there’s Prarthana. Instead of standing with him in this conflict, she is only deepening it with her so-called “plan.” Her constant repetition of “I’m here for money” is not just unconvincing, it’s insulting to their journey, and most of all, it’s damaging Shivansh. He’s not a man who needs wealth to measure love — he’s a man who has been begging all his life for one thing: truth. By feeding him lies, Prarthana isn’t shielding him; she’s suffocating him further.
It’s painful because if she simply stood firm, if she said aloud what she feels in her heart — that she belongs only to him, that he is hers and she is his — this entire farce would collapse. Sonalika’s manipulations would lose their teeth, Shivansh’s turmoil would calm, and together they could face everything. But instead, Prarthana is refusing him the one thing he has never had — clarity, honesty, and unwavering faith.
So yes, Shivansh isn’t flawless. But his flaw is passive silence, while Prarthana’s is active sabotage. And the tragic irony is that in trying to “protect” him with her convoluted plan, she is doing the very opposite — isolating him all over again.
