So here is my take on it: I don’t think Raavi defended him out of love or respect back then. It was just something she said to avoid having that conversation with Rishita. I feel like she either defends him because he is her husband and the insult indirectly affects her. Or she doesn’t defend him at all (when it comes to her friends).
The same thing that was happening then is still happening now (at least from Shiva’s POV) - She wants to be his wife and a Pandya Bahu but Shiva wants a more wholesome relationship. Even then he told her that Rishita doesn’t know him but Raavi has known him all her life. She should know that he doesn’t care about dressing a certain way. He’s still saying the same thing now. Not justifying Shiva’s actions… just using his words to describe the situation.
I think the main difference now is that the emotions involved (at least from Shiva’s side) are a lot more volatile and the makers want to make it more dramatic. I’m not happy with how they have written the track but I’ve made peace with it simply because it’s better than the past few tracks. Let’s see where they go from here.
