Hi Jhanvi .

I don't watch the show regularly bu tI watched it today as I was doing the update ...It's a horrible story line and it is going to get worse when they will show Purvi giving up her baby . Even Archana was spared when she took Soham back the last minute from Varsha's arms in the adoption lawyer's office ...

Why does Arjun keeps listening to Purvi ?

Even Manav totally refused to listen to Archana after he found out that Sachin wanted her to divorce her husband .He clearly said ' I will not let you sacrifise any more ". Right from the begining , Manav 's character has been very very firm about one thing ' I will not love anyone else but Archana ' .He has said this loud and clear to everyone ... To his mother , to Shravani ( the girl he was forced to marry , even to Archana , Archana's fiance Jaywant and more recently to Shravani's son ...No matter how much pressure was put on his , he stood firm on this stand ...

But Arjun doesn't even do that ..He does nothing actually .Just stays quiet and takes all the zulm that Purvi and Ovi pile on him ...

I don't like such spineless men ..Why is a talented boy like RD doing this role ???

It definitely looks like Onir is now the most importan tcharacter of PR ..In fact I think Purvi is second to him and then there is Ovi ...others hardly count ( specially Manav , Archana and Arjun ) .I like Onir .He is a very nice person but I hope he too does not becomes a puppet like Arjun ...

What Purvi is about to do ( giving her baby to Ovi without her knowledge ) is terribly wrong , immoral and even illegal ..There are no words to describe this despicable act ..The child protection agencies should be informed of this kind of an adoption where the mother who is about to adopt does not even know who she is going to be a mother of ...

No, bee, he was not just very arrogant to start with, and abrasive, for he was very bitter about his love having jilted him for a rich man, but also shockingly crude at one point. Priya is unable to meet the deadline for paying the rent for the bookshop she has on a lease from him, and says she is trying hard to get it in a few days. Then he bumps into her in a very upmarket hotel, where Pihu, her little daughter, has been invited by her Golu Uncle (Ram Kapoor). Well, Rajat looks at Priya in this setting, that is not at all her thing, and actually asks her if this is how she plans to get the rent money ! It was plain awful. He realises that and apologises later, but it was hardly the sort of thing for which an apology would suffice. Later, of course, he falls in love with her, and becomes a changed man, not just towards her, but towards everyone.Of course he always loved and respected his Daijaan.

Now Onir would never have said anything like that ever. I like him very much and relate to him, and I do not feel that he is too good to be true, because I have known doctors like him. When I was Ambassador to the Philippines in the 1990s, their Minister for Health, Senator Juan Flavier, had been a doctor who had worked in the poorest areas of Manila and in the countryside all his life. He cared nothing for money or power, except as a means for helping the poor.

As for Onir, even if he is irritating at times with his brand of mahaanta, he is far better than anyone else in PR ever, and not just now. As for his doctoring the report, that is hardly a serious lapse, for it hurts no one, and saves his Mishti from a lot of humiliation. I think any husband would have done it. It is not as though he was defrauding anyone.

Dear Shyamala,

Thank you for the write-up on Rajat. His early characterization seems very interesting and definitely well written.

About Onir, I don't have any issues with him being a good person, selfless, wanting to treat the poor and that there are doctors out there in the real-world who are like that, makes him 'real'.

But if he can fabricate medical reports for his wife's sake, it only gives a hint on what he can do when push comes to shove. He did not harm anyone, yes. But being a doctor, what he did is unethical and if it comes out in open, he can easily be sentenced to a jail term is also true. There was Arjun, who married and later slept with Ovi to fulfill his words for Purvi and there is this guy who doctors reports and I don't know from where he is getting all the money these days all-of-a-sudden to save the same girl's skin. Have had enough of such men.

Good for you Shyamala, u still at least like 1 character, I'm trying to think if there is anyone left whom I can like?!

Bee,

Medical ethics are a strange thing in India - first hand experience. I know of a case where a cancer patient was not told he had cancer but his family did. It was a few years ago but the doctor and the family determined that he would be better off not knowing. I later learned about it and remember being appalled.

Strega,
Your real story of how things are handled in Indian Medical system does not surprise me. But, I'm going by the book. A rule is a rule. Its all about how compromising/ignoring one is personally when you see such things. But it was not just about 'medical reports' for me, in case of Onir.

Archana just called for the reports and they were delivered? Patient privacy is not an issue. Given that context, Onir at least was shown protecting the patients wish :)

Exactly! Not just that, Dr. Breganza was shown talking openly about a patient's 'secret' in full public-view to the front-desk clerk.

Re Purvi - She is reminding me of cornered animal...She looks terrified all the time.

LOL. yeah! like a-breathe-stuck-in-the-wind-pipe-somewhere look! 😆

Convinced? Heck no. But didn't Janhvi start this thread as the devil's advocate? Just a mere assistant here. 😆

No, Amber, I did my M.Sc in Physics, and I was a professional diplomat for all of 38 years till I retired recently. My link with literature is only thru my love of the language, and of languages in general. It is Janhvi who is the litterateure manquee (literary person who has missed her calling). She should have been a professional writer.
