I agree! I don't think that Manav should have to prove himself again and again. Archana needs to realize her mistake and be the one who has to work on getting Manav back, not the other way around. She thinks he's involved with pimps, she thinks that he's a big liar, she thinks that he's having an affair... she puts so many doubts on him that she's lucky he didn't kick her out instead. Manav shouldn't have to lose his self-respect and dignity so many times to prove himself to her.
I also agree about how Savita's anger is justified. I don't think she should resort to slaps and such though, because if she does then she'll be just as low as those who choose to make tamashas rather than working things out (ahem, Sulochana!). I definitely wouldn't mind if she gave Archana and Sulochana an earful though, they need to be brought back to reality. Someone else made the very good point that you can't just come and go from your marriage as you please. Its a commitment, and you have to work at it through thick and thin. I'm quite sure Archana was the one telling Manav that every family has it's lows and you just have to work to get past them, so what now Archana? Practice what you preach and get real!
Something else that I was thinking was that if Manav was as bad as Archana believes him to be, he would have done something to show it in the past month or so. If he was involved with pimps and prostitutes then his behavior would have been totally different. He probably wouldn't have been so nice to Archana, always sticking up for her in front of his family and going as far as taking a loan to buy the necklace so her family wouldn't have to. If Manav was bad, he most likely would have taken advantage of Archana on their first night in the same room rather than being a gentlemen and keeping a polite distance. If he was as characterless as they think, he would have used her and dropped her without much consideration for her feelings.
I keep on telling myself to make my posts shorter, but then they always end up so long! š
