But he is not a bad husband. There is a difference in these two statements. He could have been a very good husband, only fault is that he is too weak. And a weak husband is worse than no husband. A very contradictory statement indeed .
Its not as if Manav does not care about marriage or vows Tanya Di. You have seen this character from the very beginning, you know that by now. He is a good man but I must agree with Tanya here . Once he knew Archu was not at fault he shud have told Shravni I cannot punish her for what she never ever did .Much before this commitment that I gave to u I had given her a commitment FOR LIFE . But of course , its too late now , now I want him to marry Shravni ASAP .
The problem here is not that he has given his word to Girish and Shravani, the problem is that there is a life involved- that of Shravani- who had a rough pregnancy since the beginning. any attempt to abort or shock would be disasterous. That was what prevented Manav from stepping down from the commitment.
At the end of the day, a human life is much more important than anything else. Agreed .But if this had happened when he and Archu were not divorced and yet Sachin had died , then what ? Wud it be right to step down from his own marraige to save a human life ?As u rightly said , other solutions must be found .
I am proud of Manav that he thought on such terms. Very few people go to such extent for others. He did the right thing by thinking about Shravani's life first. (now please don't say like yesterday that I'm thinking on such terms cos of medical background) Shravni took that decision , helping her was Manavs prerogative as a human .But to help every human one does NOT AXE his own life . Even God doesnt demand that .Ultimately each one is responsible for his fate or her fate .Irresponsible sex and Sachins death were not ARMAN"s fault at all . So rushing to help her to this extent is hardly a thing to be proud of . He did it at the cost of hurting another individual too , lets not forget that .
My disappointment in him lies in the fact that he acted weak and instead of trying to find a solution to the whole mess choose the easy way out- sacrifice his and Archu's marriage. Let things go on as they are going. I say- crap!!! Agreed .
I hate such a loser attitude since i believe in finding solutions. Ideally I wanted Manav to sit down and think of ways to fulfill his commitment without being unfair to Archu. A sane, practical, rational mind is what I wanted. Instead I saw Manav sacrificing everything and hating himself and dying everday for being unfair to Archu. First disappointment Agreed
Then he was unable to stop Archu's abuse by his mother. Second disappointment.Agreed
Thirdly, even in such terrible times, he does nothing except cry. Varsha on the other hand is trying to find solutions. Agreed
Fourthly, till now this extremely weak person has no clarity of his future. Or even Shravani's. Earlier it was compromise, agreed. But now that he knows Sharvani loves him, how does he plan to fulfill her expectations? why he isn't he nervous of his coming marriage? Again a clear lacking of brains.Agreed
That is why I say Tanya Di, the creatives butchered him by making him weak and brainless. Other than that I haven't seen (or can't remember) an instance when he has been wrong on moralistic grounds (except sindoor scene- I will never forgive him for it). He is A VERY GOOD MAN . VERY LOVABLE . No one can resist MAnav . I agree here in TOTO .
