Don't say it like that...I never really thought Manav consulting Ashna was ever wrong. She is just his confidant who gives a womanly perspective to him. Archana too shares relationship problems with Sulo...for her she is the confidante. Men never go to men for relationship counselling. Actually they don't even look for counselling at all...they just assume they are always doing right. 🤪
What Manav-Ashna have is just a really good friendship. It should not be assumed otherwise...a man and a woman can also have an extremely good relationship in friendship. I am obviously not married but I am committed to someone in life, and it would be insane to expect out of each other to not have opposite gender friends and to keep them totally unaware of such a significant part of your life which is your relationship. such things are shared. in my little experience of life, guys always fall on their female friends to do special stuff for their special someones. I know it coz I have helped one guy friend in choosing earrings and another over a midnight fight.
I am not saying this to defend Manav but generally giving my outlook on a guy and gal's plain and simple friendship.
But yes I do agree nudging the other in front of your partner and talking through signals is no-no. It is in fact a disrespect to your partner.
Also I agree that Archana should stop forgiving on the blink of an eyelash. ArMan in this matter fail to be partners of equals. Archana keeps herself inferior to Manav which is infact a common factor in all serials to generate sympathy for the woman. And its shame TV has to incite such a feeling for the women gender.
Anyway, for the rest of the serial, I would say savita is doing wrong by making Ajit a leech in D's lives. SIL is made to feel the king in the Indian families but you should not let him take the role of a dictator. It will be a shame if Manav's blood and sweat would go into building castle for Ajit. Then why not just not popularize the dowry system against...atleast its just one time money deal.
Archana was wrong to Vandita not Ajit...the apology to Ajit is not needed. She should go to Lokhande's house as per Savita's instruction but only apologize to Vandita. In that way the much need apology will be delivered with Archana's dignity in place. Sulo's advice as usual is foolish.
I am not so happy with Vinod-Manjusha getting poor...coz that would mean another set of butts falling onto Manav's head. After all ArMan's hearts are so big.
Savita's transition is still not convincing to me. Is she a flip card to turn into black and white on every next turn of events.
