I don't find anything quick in this track, cause it has been prolonged too long. By 70 episodes, ideally, the couple falls in love in any regular show. But this show is far from regular.
This is also for Pallavi to see the changing dynamics of the Deshmukh family, with Mandaar's entry. Blood is thicker than water, will they prove that or will it be the other way round. I think, that a fake Mandaar will enter and stir up equations in this family. Pallavi hasn't lived with Mandaar in the Deshmukh house as the daughter-in-law. She never had the chance. But whenever this character enters, she will get to see first hand, how the equations change. When she witnesses that, on her own, that is when she will realize how wrong her perspective was.
You are right....Mandaar or fake Mandaar can only show how wrong Pallavi was about D'fam while Raghav will show her what a true family is (Rao's). That will be her turning point.
Cause Raghav Rao, the lover will not be easy either. He will come with his own set of complications. I have always seen Raghav as a person who believes in love, but avoids it as well. He cannot face it cause then it would be giving power to someone else, and he doesn't want to do that. Hence, he will go round and round by calling it responsibility, duty, repentance, challenge, chance and what not, but not love.
As much as I want to disagree to this point..... this is indeed true that Raghav has always kept a big distance from love. But if I go by the present track....he has already stated that he would give her all the rights of a wife....and rights also include husband's love and partnership.... partnership part has already begun....love part has started with a strong attraction from both the ends and somehow Raghav has started acknowledging it too while Pallavi....I will wait till next week to confirm my suspicions
All in all a perfect post Sohini👍🏼
Since the makers are giving Raghav a proper redemption arc, they should ideally give Pallavi a growth arc as well. So I am looking forward to that.
Pallavi is a soft person, and she is very much drawn to him subtly. But she needs more than attraction to give into Raghav or any feelings. Same for Raghav too.
Raghav has began to acknowledge this relationship, cause at the time of the marriage it was visible that the person who will hold this relationship together will be Raghav and not Pallavi. He will be the partner and lover both. So, no denying that. But there is a difference between acknowledging a marriage and acknowledging love.
Raghav isn't just there yet. He will need a lot more of these validation like Sulochana's truth to slowly fall for her. Sulochana's truth was the breakthrough for him to reach his conscience, and the blood donation or any other act for his family will give Raghav the push to acknowledge love. He is attracted to Pallavi and knows a lot more about her as he is delving into her life via her diary or any other medium. Same goes for Pallavi as well.
But when it comes to treatment of love, I feel Raghav is well aware how consuming the feeling can be, Pallavi hasn't had much experience. So, if Raghav falls for his wife, and if Pallavi chooses Raghav, I am not sure any kind of boundary or logic or any explanation will stop him from claiming what he wants, since he is such an obstinate person.
