Nice post Koolsadhu. I understand where you're coming from and agree on many counts. Shravani isn't all that bad, she never forced Manav into this marriage, and has atleast tried to bring ArMan back together. What bothers me though is that despite being an independent, educated woman, she's going through with all of this. I understand why in a sense, but if the situation is thought through, it can be realized that she doesn't really "need" Manav's family now that she's in her second trimester and can't be forced into an abortion. She can move in life with someone exponentially better than a man who is crazy for another woman and has a dysfunctional family, villainous mother, and less than desirable living conditions. I dislike that the storywriters are subjecting her to this and making her compromise like this. They're making her do it for the safety of her child, which I understand from her point of view, but then she comes out with the oddest dialogues and expressions which just throw me off.
For example, I will never get over this one, it makes me laugh every time...
I don't think that she is literally a psycho or anything, but some of her expressions are just... 😆
