My point was that a relationship is meant to be 2 way. Dutta and Roops both made mistakes, they both need to work on their relationship.
Dutta fulfilled all the material demands of being their brother - the provider. He did not fulfill their emotional demands, and that was his mistake.
Roops got swayed by Kala, influenced to the extent that she stopped caring and communicating for Dutta, that was a big mistake.
They both need to rectify and move on; that was the point I was trying to make.
I also disagree that Dutta gave everything to his family - yes he played the role of a provider, but he didnt give them his time or attention. The black sheep in the family Kala took advantage and played his other 2 sisters for that one mistake. Unfortunately Leela and Roop fell for it, that was their mis-judgement. Hence I say, that the fault lies with both parties not just with Roop in this case.
Though I might call what Dutta did as a "mistake", I wouldnt say the same for what Roops and Leela did. Mistake is something that happens unknowingly, and lying and cheating doesnt come under that. Dutta's mistake was genuine, but I feel he has genuine reasons for it too (by now we all know about Dutta and his emotional vulnerability, we know this one thing itself is the base for the entire story of LTL). There are times when I have gone through bad phases in my life as well, and during those times, I prefered to be left alone and never even used to spend much time with parents/sister. But they knew I loved them. So all I'm saying is, for the mistake Dutta made, he definitely dint deserve "dhoka" from the ones whom he loved and cared the most. In return of Dutta's lack of attention to his sisters, if they quit caring for him or dint do much for him, thats still an understandable reaction. But here they were playing games with him and his mind, and making sure he is depressed in life! I wouldnt call that a mistake/misunderstanding etc., I believe if you genuinely love someone, no one can mislead you against them. Care is an automatic byproduct if you genuinely love someone. Even kids nowadays are smart that even they cannot be misled against people they love, here we are talking about ADULTS like Roops and Leela (Leela was even a mother, so I believe mature enough). So I can never compare what Dutta did with what Roops/Leela did, both the things are at totally different levels of karma, for me.
