The bolded part very well said Tanya...i have given up hoping some scenes of Purvi with her Manav baba. She should just leave the D clan and K clan for good...everyone says that Arjun has had the worse for the stupid deal wedding which i agree completely...but now i feel Purvi also is in a bad place, by giving up Arjun she has lost everything...

1) Arjun-Her love, she could have been so happy with him-both of them would have been.
2) Her job - She could be running the office Dk gave for Arjun with Arjun, now she jobless
3) Her family - She could have at least had the D clan as her family when she lost Arjun, but today it has come plain and simple, she is not welcomed in the D clan. She should never go to the D clan house again. Nobody stood up for her except Archana. Going there would only give her more humilation.
4) A great father - If she married Arjun, at least she would have gotten a great father in Dk. She would have received all the love she has been waiting for Manav to give her.
5) Manju - When she finds out Purvi has lost her job, she is going to torture Purvi with words. She won't be able to live in her own house.

Conclusion :- Purvi don't take Manav's Pune project job also...leave for good, go to kolkata and find a new job away from all these. You have done enough, now the time has come to live for yourself. Archana aai can live without you- it will be hard for both of you but she has 4 other children. Go Purvi, leave and start you own life. How much more can you take? because i had enough watching it.

Hi Jai... Not saying Manav should not Support Ovi, but today he just didnt do anything. When a parent just lets their childs actions go just like that then you are just telling the child do whatever you want no one is going to stop you. That really made me angry. One should not let the love for one's child blind them from telling them right for wrong. Maybe Cv's do not want to show that as of yet, but in my pov it is long overdue.

Manav cares for Purvi but today I was disappointed in him bigtime, Im not expecting him to stand up for Purvi but I was expecting him to tell her off for acting in such a way with a guest.

All I can say is Im never going to have any expectations from Cv's because then they will always disappoint me😃

Hi there!

I have to agree with what you said. I am no fan of any of the characters that writers give us in the beginning and then just make them so unreal, it is hard to bother liking them anymore. But as much as I have loved Manav from the beginning, he has been a tad bit disappointing since the leap, especially when it comes to the treatment of his mother, and then his daughter Ovi. He should have been the support she needed long back when she came to India and found out about Arjun and Purvi. I expected him to be the shoulder, that he was, but then move on to being a more authoratitve figure and a wise father who along with giving her emotional support, also gives her some lessons on growing up, on understanding the difference between love and obsession, who shows her right from wrong. I had high expectations from him post the wedding, where he let me down once again. Archana rightfully went home slapped Purvi and reprimanded her for what she had done. It was highly emotional and made sense for a mother to feel that way. Manav did nothing, besides waking up in the morning, being temporarily upset and just telling Ovi, that what she did was wrong because Arjun-Purvi love each other. Much more was needed from Manav at that point than just lamely telling her and accepting her apology. He should have been livid at her for being so self centred and obsessed that she bartered his marriage with Archana ( with no thought for either of her parents) simply to get hold of a man who does not love her. Manav simply resigned to this chosen fate by his child and did not so much as give her an insight into the consequences of this as well as punish her for the arrogance and desperation that she had acted on. One hug, it was all over.

Same way, after the wedding, he should have spoken to his damaad too about what has happened and how to go from here. Arjun, has grown up looking up to Manav, which means they share a close relationship, close enough for Manav to have slapped him for loving Purvi. He should have spoken to him as an older, father in law figure and discussed this debacle. Archana was relatively new to Ovi to open up, but she gave her the advice to work on her marriage with patience, but Manav did not rise to that occassion either. Today, when Ovi was inappropriately misbehaving, he simply left standing there like a putla without putting her in her place for once. Archana came forward to protect Purvi, which makes sense, and I do not expect Manav to sound off Ovi for Purvi;s sake. But yes, as a father, he should have been angry at Ovi for misbehaving with a guest and being so childish and immature in her approach. There is a tactful way to handle children and I think Manav has simply failed as a father in Ovi's case at the least.

I must say though that DK has proved to be quite amusing to me. He simply does not care about "trivial" issues like who his son ends up marrying. At one point, I used to love the relationship that he shared with Arjun, but clearly DK seems more engrossed in his own self or maybe praising Archana and Sulochana all day, that he has no interest in his son's life anymore. He should have really been the supposedly " cool" father, having an open-hearted discussion with his son about his marriage, what he needs to do, what he should do, how he is feeling, how he needs to work about this. He simply stayed put, observed the tamasha and decided to stand back and let things move on. Parents, have been quite the wrong examples for the kids in this show. Sad that DK was reduced to this. I used to like his cool headed character who was such a stark difference from Manav who is not so passive. But have simply become wall flowers in their children's lives it seems.

Hey welcome to the forum!!

Ha since leap Manav has been really disappointing for me, as he was supposed to be the male lead.

I know he wasnt going to yell about what she said to Purvi, but acting is such a way with a guest shuld not be tolerated. I bet farukh bhai walked out thinking oh god who has Arjun got himseld into, God protect him..

After the marriage Manav was so passive... If I was the parent I would have told her to get a divorce as soon as she could... or knock some sense into her saying how she was never was going to be happy..

DK I had expectations from him to do something since he knows that Arjun is madly in love with Purvi, but he didnt do anyhting...

Manav is a changed man after leap.The moment Sushant quit ,they decided to change the characterization of Manav.Manav had become more out-spoken.There was time before leap when Archu was the dominating partner and Manav would give in to pacify her but after the leap Manav has yelled the living day lights of Archu due to the senseless MU and now a days its more of fear in Archu over Manav's anger than anything else.CV's wanted to change the characterization as well with the actor getting changed.

Manav had become a universal character for many around who adored him.He was the best son,best husband anyone could have till leap happened.

I feel for the actors of the show who are giving their best with such senseless story tracks.

DK is a changed man too (except the actor did not change) after leap.He has not been doing much after leap except accept things as it comes and play the spectator role and just sit and watch the tamasha.
