How 50+ yrs old Archana's grave mistakes are labeled as sillyness, stupidity out of goodness of her heart but the same break is not given to Ovi mind you who is only 19 yrs old 😳

So true, Archu silly and stupid at 25 and now at 50+, but eh... the same yardstick not applicable to Ovi...she is just plain, stupid, selfish and brainless...oh well

Kalaapi, lol, old habits die hard. Archana is the same after 20+ years, Ovi will be the same in 20+ years if PR lasts that long, I hope to God not :)

Dear Bhalla, I applaud Manav for taking the decision he did even if he is not at fault for the kidnapping and it is the kidnapper's fault.

But just for fun, I would like to stretch the blame, who kidnapped Purvi? Soham. Who is Soham? Manav's son. Who is responsible for bringing him into the world ? Manav. So it is Manav's fault. 🤣 also, who is getting the crores? Soham. Is it solely Ovi's inheritance as someone suggested or is Soham entitled to it as well? It is all staying within the family so I am not worrying too much about the monies :)

As Dabulls so wisely stated, this is a silly soap, no rhyme nor reason to it and unfortunately all logic has been thrown to the winds :(

Yes Jahnvi agree with u totally. @bold but then Archana too brought Soham in the world didn't she? So it must be her fault too that Purvi got kidnapped😆 Actually I would say it's much more Archana's fault then Manav's. She gave Soham away to Varsha and Soham got raised with terrible parents.(Varsha and Balan) so he has become this way only due to Archana and her careless mistake of giving Soham away. Manav tried to stop her but she didn't listen if Soham is what he is it's 100% Archana's fault.

Dear, dear Bhalla, I knew you were going to say that, lol. Yes, both their faults so since (I believe) the money belongs to both of them, let them give it to their son. Poor Purvi for getting caught in the middle of this family drama but her parents left her an orphan so it is their fault as well. ;)

Lol, Nirvan, Purvi is understanding of Arjun's inner self so DK is as enamoured of her as Arjun is. Ovi was understanding of only Arjun 's work.
Yesterday, his disgusted expression was warranted but before that, yes, he definitely needed to have talked to/consoled the girl unless he is feeling so guilty about the whole surprise engagement fiasco.

BUT Arey, i know love changes u but from when did the workaholic(love for work supposedly) change into i want to stand on my two feet with my mahnat and not by the name of my father's help. Tusshar Kapoor is the son of JEetendra and brother of Ekta but he is still not successful implying Arjun had the name but he had the talent thats why he WAS Successful at that age.

Dear Nirvan, you are preaching to the choir :) I agree whole heartedly with you that the reasoning is totally bunkum but then such is the illogic of PR!

Don't worry, folks, I am still on my enforced sabbatical and am not about to start posting again!

But I was taking a sneak peek during the first break I could wangle from my present bondage, and I could not resist the urge to correct this "his money is her money too'' assertion, and all that it implies for the Manav-Archana-Purvi kidnapping affair.

There is NO LEGAL CONCEPT OF MATRIMONIAL PROPERTY IN INDIA AS OF NOW. This is the subject of amendments to the relevant laws, to give the wife a half share in her husband's property acquired during the years of the marriage, which are now under debate. But even those amendments (which are not yet law and might not be law for a while, and they have to be debated in Parliament and then only adopted and enacted) apply only to immovable property.

So, all that is periodically shown in Indian TV soaps of women claiming huge amounts in alimony or as part of a divorce settlement is plain hogwash. The wife is entitled to whatever alimony the husband agrees to pay or, if that is contested by the wife, what the court decides he should. This is fixed so as to meet the overall costs of her maintenance at the level at which she was living when she was married to that man, plus provision for child maintenance if she gets the custody of the child/ children. The alimony ceases when she remarries.

She has NO claim to anything else, and definitely not to a half share in the husband's property, either acquired during the period of the marriage or otherwise.

So, as the Manav-Archana marriage is governed by Indian law, there is NO question of her automatically being entitled to or getting a half share of his property. Even her alimony would never be as heavy as is shown in PR, for her lifestyle with Manav was never luxurious, not even after he joined DK Industries and rose in it.

It might seem unfair, and it is, which is why the amendments are to be enacted. But those amendments are still nowhere near being the law, which is, at present, as stated above.

This is to clarify the correct legal position in the matter. The CVs of course play merry hell with both facts and the laws, but we need not join them in their follies! The rest is up to the emotional choices of the individual viewer.

Bye, and continue to have lot of fun with such arguments, as I get back to my new duties!

the 3 Crore used to save Pruvi is Archana's money as well.

I was watching DK throughout Ovi's rant - the man looked disbelieving and disgusted. I am sure he must have been thanking the dear Lord for the chutkaara his son found from this selfish girl. His "main hoon na" dialogue to his son was touching and reassuring. As for Arjun, yes, I did think his stumbling off yesterday from the scene was a bit premature. But the lad did justice, he seemed desperate, helpless, not knowing what to do and his dad seemed to understand the depths of his son's anguish. Arjun's words of bravado to Purvi were as much for his own assurance as for her. I remembered too the promise he made Purvi when she questioned him what if somebody takes her away from him and his emphatic no one can, he won't let them, my guts tells me it will be Arjun who ultimately saves Purvi.

As for Soham, he seemed genuinely surprised that Purvi was moving away in sheer fright from him. His words guaranteeing her safety seems to bode something as well. He will protect her from the other goons, I am certain.

Balan seems surprisingly attached to his son. His prayer to protect his boy was oddly out of character or unexpected from a ruffian like him.

Savita was awesome, there is some humanity left in her after all these years. She alluded to Purvi being from a good family and a good girl (?). She puts on a front alright, our Mrs. Savita Deshmukh, she has a heart underneath all that bark, after all.

Manav was absolutely awesome, loved him today. Resolute with Ovi, loving with Archana, firm in his conviction to save Purvi. I paid attention this time, he said Purvi holds the same importance in his life as Ovi and Teju, he did not say he loves her the same.

As for Ovi, behind all that perulance, is the overriding feeling that of being torn assunder from her mom? Savita, are you listening? can you set things right and make your beloved grand daughter whole again by telling her the truth that she was not abandoned as a child?

PR seems to be clipping at least in terms of innuendo and promise of things to come.

hi Janhvi, i read this yesterday but wanted to comment only after viewing the episode.

Abhi, loved the calm, even tone of your post. Your dad sounds like a wonderful man. My dad was a man of action, decisive, with few words too.

Shyamala, glad you could sneak away from your wards. Hope you are having fun!! That law seems unfair to women so hope they fix it. CA is community property so it is shared half and half, married more than ten years, doesn't even matter if the spouse is cheating (unless in extenuating circumstances), guess the law is lenient in the case of a ten year itch as opposed to the universally "accepted" seven year itch. Cannot wait to see you back full time on the forum instead of peek a boo visits!

hi Janhvi,
