Every character has got a slap except Archana and it should be given by that weak husband of hers when she says she has a Pavitra Rishta with him and the abandoned kids . It should be given in front of all ...the kids , his family and outsiders and especially Sulochana .
Ideally this slap should have been given on the day Ovi tried to commit suicide .
I hold Manav more responsible than Archana for the laughing stock his marraige became because he made her his weakness and let her do tandav on his head .
She went on doing one foolish thing after the other and he simply watched . The height was when he told Archana I am divorcing you for your self respect . My daughters , my mother insult you constantly and now it has become unbearable for me to watch .
Did Manav seriously expect his daughters not to feel any resentment at being
abandoned ?
Did he expect them to welcome Archana with flowers when she was the one asking for a divorce with a huge monetary compensation ?
Did he expect them to love her when clearly she was rooting for the Arjun Purvi marraige ?
18 year olds judge and take sides when a divorce is happening between their parents. They either side with the mother or the father . Here what did the twins observe ?
The mother is the one asking for the divorce .
The mother is demanding lots of compensation .
The mother is too wrapped up in her adopted child and has not made them her priority .
The mother did not remain neutral but took sides in the Arjun Purvi matter which was a sore subject in their family .
18 years before the mother had done a case against their father and almost financially ruined him .
Their brother was lost to them because of the mother and her obstinacy alone .
Did Manav seriously expect his daughters to like or love Archana ?
I agree with Varsha that there comes a time when a man has to choose between his weakness for a wife and the good of his children . After Ovi's suicide attempt he should have told her to get out of his life . Sulochana coming to invite the Deshmukhs was understandable as she is a very hypocritical lady and she does not leave a single chance to disturb the Deshmukhs emotionally but Archana ? This was her family .
If it indeed was tough love it is a decision taken by discussing with the spouse . Did Archana discuss this matter with Manav? No , we saw her crying on Sulochana's shoulder the same way Purvi cries on Archana's shoulder for the slightest of reasons.
Why do these kind of women marry ? Men are not toys to be sacrificed for senseless sacrifices . Their hard earned money is not khairaat or charity . Such women who can neither be mothers nor wives but use husband's money abundantly are liabilities to men .
Arjun Kirloskar was so confident , such a professional before he met Purvi . Today he literally babbles only one dialogue ...
Thank you Archana aunty . For giving me Purvi .
To Purvi he says only one thing
Your Aai is great .
His concern is not his business but
Will I be able to keep Purvi happy ?
So much is his confidence shaken .
This is the height of emasculation.
If a woman's confidence is shaken we call the man all sorts of names . Why should men be reduced to babbling idiots when they have done nothing wrong ?
Does love mean idiocy ?
I hope someone stands up to Archana in this serial and makes her admit all her mistakes . Be it Soham or Ovi ...I don't care . But the definition of 'love' that this serial is giving is sickening .
