I am a silent reader in this forum and was waiting for a topic like this to put forth my two cents…
The writer & the producer claim that they wanted to show the dilemma of Pallavi choosing between her Duty(Mandar) and Love (Raghav)…but my question to them is Where was/is the dilemma at the first place????? whatever they have shown till now of Pallavi in this track…she is very clear about what she wants and what she wants to do…she clearly chose Raghav as her husband over Mandar, she firmly chose to help Mandar over her responsibilities as a wife, she chose Baba’s promise over Raghav’s insecurities, she chose to believe her instincts over Raghav’s warnings on Mandar and above all she chose to stay at Deshmukhs for whatever time it takes than staying with her Husband….she clearly chose to help Mandar over everything. All of these were conscious decisions without an iota of pondering or confusion….so I want to ask the writer sir, where was the dilemma that they are talking about…
If they really wanted to show Pallavi’s conflict then the writers completely failed in it… because neither there was a C of conflict nor D of dilemma in her decisions or actions… and to make it worse she was doing all this while being fully aware of Raghav’s intense love for her, his insecurities and Mandar’s intent to reclaim her as his wife…
Had they NOT shown the love confession & her zillion promises then we could have given Pallavi the benefit of doubt that she was not aware of Raghav’s love for her because everything Raghav did to her till that point could have been easily categorized as redemption care concerns attraction or even affection but NOT Love…but after confession she knew to what extent he loved her so no excuse there. Similarly had they shown Mandar as a nice guy or at least fake it in front of Raghav & Pallavi. Had they NOT made it Raghav vs Mandar from the word go, Had they NOT revealed Mandar’s intent and the extent to which he went to have Pallavi back, at least not in front of her then again we could have given a pass to her behavior on the grounds that she has nothing to doubt about him and is trying to help a nice person. So her very act of ignoring Raghav’s love and choosing to believe Mandar despite knowing Mandar’s intent, her character came across as completely loose and shallow if not a cheat….You can’t hurt your husband, be insensitive towards his feelings, ignore his insecurities to help your Ex and call it humanity. I don’t even understand how can the writer come up with something like this without realizing the damage they are causing…
It’s really unfortunate that they thought they will show a wife consciously and deliberately choose her possessive Ex over her loving husband for whatsoever reasons and the viewers will accept it.. coz the very thought is revolting as per ITV standards….
Pallavi is very kind human who can put herself into trouble to help another…that’s her basic character but the writer’s here failed to come up with a solid reason to justify her insensitive behavior towards Raghav and ignorance towards Mandar’s Intent…
The damage is done…without a logical intense redemption track for pallavi…they may not be able to install back viewer’s love & trust to the character…
This track had so much potential to make the show more interesting and as well as character development but the writing completely failed the plot as well as the characters.
