i will tell another fact about this situation,
that both karan and nandini are totally partial and treat
only each other's children with goodness and neglect anyone else's even their own (like manthan is karan's son but karan-tanya's not karan-nandini's) and treat them unjustly.
like you saw, as poppiflower and bhumi fan pointed abt manthan, manthan was neglected too much by karan as he is his and tanya's son, where as just because bhumi was nandnini's daughter she was soft soaped and pampered always by karan, her faults overlooked mostly, manthan never loved emotionally, never trusted, never consoled, never given credit when he does good.
similary nandini would forgive manthan just since he is karan's son, no matter if his fault at one time is big, but he is karan's son...but eklaya will be punished, slapped and humiliated, accused of rape wrongly since he is ansh's son and his only fault is he looks like his father..forget all the good things he did always for all, including risking his own life for tulsi..no wonder the boy stopped believing in goodness...(you can argue abt proofs, but will nandini belive anything against tulsi if
proofs against her is presented, no, similarly till then eklavya was all good and noble, but it wasnt considered, no benefit of doubt given, he suffered cos he looked like ansh.
summary -
for karan - cos bhumi is nand's daughter, she is imp and will be loved and pampered, since manthan is tanya's son, he wud be neglected and unloved.
for nandini - since manthan is karans beta , he wud be forgiven, be it anything, but no mater how much good eklavya ahs done all life till kt rape thinsg came, he
wud be acused and slapped and wudnt given beefit of dount since he looks like his father.
p.s - its a free forum and no fan club, i am writing the truth and with point , my views and in a good language, moderators plz take action against bashers if any after this .
