I always maintain that yes you should never take the decision for someone else in their place or take the decision of the couple's fate on your own, no matter how u think it's good for them. So yes normally and as per the way a relationship should be Neil should have shared this with Avni instead of hiding it from her, he has always been honest about everything and he has always given her the choice even to walk away from him if she wanted BUT what about when Avni breaks the promises she makes to Neil, no matter how he explains or begs?!. She decided to die when she discovered Aman's betrayal, it was a decision she took without thinking of Neil, just a mere sorry, what about him, it would have impacted him. She promised him few hours back and she said "kabhi nahi" about not breaking her promise and in the morning u see her with Ali hatching a plan B in all its details, thinking Neil won't understand. I understand her past, I understand her fears and all, but why some fans' double standards when it comes to Neil, this is the first time he does it and under forces he deemed were fatal for Avni, his experience and what he knows about her suggests she might yet again go and confront Vidyut and who knows in which troubles she might land this time especially now that Neil knows the full intentions of Vidyut, when provoked Avni loses control over herslef, she might remember the promise she made to Neil but despite that her feelings take over and she goes ahead with her impulse.
Neil was never an MCP, he has always treated her as an equal, loved her with her flaws, despite breaking his promises, he accepted her the way she is, he has learnt to read through her and love her unconditionally. The Ananya avatar he dislikes is the one where she completely loses herself and can do something drastic like killing someone, if it wasn't for him she would have killed DVM ages ago and gone behind bars ages ago. He did it to control her just for a while, otherwise as per the promo itself he knows his Avni won't sit idle and will try to go out of prison
Many were talking about the consent here, a rule Avni has broken many times and Neil is breaking for the first time. When Juhi's issue came in Neil's life, he told her everthing about her, and then when Juhi came in person to his life and even told him she has a daughter, he didn't hide it from Avni, he gave her the choice to walk away but she decided to stay by his side, when again her past was being digged out by Vidyut and RP Neil admitted it's hard for her and gave her the choice once again to walk away, but she stuck to him as she loved him and respected him. It was her choice here, once u choose u assume the responsibility of ur choice but the day she came up with other plans and due to circumstances she decided to not wait for Neil and went behind Juhi and Vidyut, that was also her choice, she excluded Neil and didn't respect the choice they agreed on, no one compelled her to point the gun at Juhi and fall in Vidyut's trap, the way of dealing with things was her choice and it landed her into troubles despite Neil's warnings. Now yes people would argue saying Mishti and Juhi and Vidyut are in their lives because of Neil but again let's not forget that she was the one who decided to stick to Neil and stand by him the way he stood by her in the past, so it was her consent but when she broke the promise she didn't consider Neil's consent, and here is the difference, it's not about whose problem is that, as in who brought the problem to their lives, it's about what they decided as a couple and agreed about together. Yaar she was even running away without telling him, I know she did it for him as well but wasn't it hiding things from him, doing things that impact both without his consent?!!. Obviously I understand why Avni did all this, first there is her love for Neil and then there is also the impact of her past.
So if we can understand Avni based on her past, why do we find it so hard to understand Neil as well, yes he has been luckier as he didn't have a past as painful as Avni's but that doesn't mean he doesn't feel as well. Why do we jumpt the gun at everything he does, if he protects Avni in a controlling way then he is MCP, if he lets her face Vidyut then he is begharat and doesn't show protective instincts enough, why people expect him to be perfect in every single way, if he is not then they call him hypocrite, nakabil, MCP and what not, I know he has some extreme ways, I don't always agree of but why do we judge.
We can also wonder why Neil is able to read through Avni and understand when she hides something even from her expressions, why he can predict her next moves often while Avni saw doubt in his eyes, now if eyes are the mirror to the soul then Avni definitely didn't read his eyes well, because he trusts her and he loves her, but due to her past experiences we can understand her then why can't we understand him as well!
Why can't we see Neil and Avni as AvNeil, both have their flaws but I don't see anything wrong in their love, at times they hurt each other even when they don't want to, it's hard to not get hurt by ur loved ones at some point of time even when they don't mean to but if you will get hurt anyways make sure you get hurt for a person who is worth it!
Yaha tak lessons ki baat hai, I feel both Neil and Avni might learn things the hard way this time. Only time will tell which decision was good and which one was bad, maybe there is no wrong or right decision, maybe it's all a matter of perspective, a matter of approach, let's see
I also read about how couldn't he find evidence or get her out of jail in 6months, do u know how much time cases stay in courts?!, woh bhi murder cases, if a car accident with no victims can take more than three months to be solved, then u can imagine murder cases, I know about some of these cases which were in courts for years, we want Neil Khanna to be perfect but he is not superman, if people want to judge him on his intelligence and kabiliyat then look at reality first.
And why the sadism of wanting Neil to suffer so much later, as if he is not suffering now, he is inflicting himself the same pain he is inflicting her, he knows he is hurting her and he is hurting himself as well, he thought this is the only way out, maybe there is another way but he thinks this is the only one, so don't intentions hold any importance?! She sleeps on the ground, he sleeps on the gorund, she is distanced from her family, his family is distanced from him as well (emotionally), he needs to protect her, tackle Vidyut, prove her innocence, and as per spoilers he was hurting himself as well for eventually hurting her or for something going wrong in her case.
From the men interested in Avni, Neil is the right match to Avni, they balance each other so well . Vidyut is a psycho murderer and he is only obsessed with her, Ali is too lenient with her, he can support her even when she is wrong but Neil can fight against her for her, now that he saw that she won't listen anyway or give him any choice he did it without her knowledge!
I feel both are right in their own place, if we see all the factors that influenced their decisions
Anyways I know it's just a show, so we can't expect complete logic, we can't always find realism but it's still far better than many things dished out to viewers.
