I guess CVs r deliberately showing Rudra a bit toned down now because he realised that his anger will take him nowhere .. thats why even with Mohini , he dint really go all out but just made his point clear by asking her to stay away from Paro in a subtle yet firm tone ..
coming to his behaviour with Paro , I guess he feels that he owes this much to her .. its not out of love yet but just that he realise he was unfair to her and so he is trying to keep his patience with her now
I dont think he is a softy yet .. he is still carrying that attitude of his and is the same reserved kind of guy only .. its just thath e is behaving more human now 😳Yea ur right I watched it again noticed even thought his being nice... The sarcastic undone is still there...love it! Specially the look he gave when she mentioned "basanti"!
