I totally agree that what happened with the kidnapping and near death experience was WRONG. I cringed soooo hard. And was saying Nooooooo the entire time. Pallavi is traumatized and the potential of her falling for her victimizer is still there.
However, when these things happen i personally take them with a grain of salt UNLESS the dude is listerally physically abusing, sexually assaulting, al o that.. mental trauma is def valid.. but its hard with shows that are set up for a love hate story where to draw the line.
With raghav the only reason im still convincing myself to continue is because, this show genuinly is good to me. Its intriguing, skr and shivangi do such a great job, the backdrop and screeplay is good.. theres a lot going for it as of now to totally dismiss over once scene.
Additionally i think we forget that Raghav is literally a goon/don.
It doesnt make it okaystill. But it does add more complexity to his behavior. He does the WRONG thing because thats what has worked for him. Iso somewhere i can rationalize that a don would kidnap, would tie up, would threaten.
A lot of times in other shows the male lead is this hurt but righteous man he tortures and physicaly mentally abuses just cause.. and it still sucks but i can rationalize raghavs behavior MORE being who he is characterized to be.
I agree its not okay but idk why i feel like that one scene is mot enough for me to totally dismiss the show and pairing. Not yet at least.
