<font color="#006699">This is super depressing, I was thinking the same thing.</font>
<font color="#006699">But! I also drew a comparison between this scene and the scene where he introduced himself to Peeya. And it's made me realise he's treating Devyani and Peeya as kids! Of course, for us it's weird because we don't see them as children, and they're not. Especially for a man of his station, you'd expect him to be a bit more refined around girls - maybe we'll understand the situation better eventually.</font><font color="#006699">As for Devyani, I think he's quite oblivious to her feelings. And thinking back on how he's been behaving - I feel like because he knows his dad loves the Shastris, he's just going out of his way to be nice to them. Also, he only started respecting Devyani after she proved herself in the race and never before. So, also based on other comments here, I think some of us could at least agree to the fact that he admires her determination.</font><font color="#006699">As for me, I find a distinct difference between how he treats Devyani and Peeya to how he treats Anu akin to that of an equal.😊At least, I hope that's not my imagination.</font>
Devyani was obviously flirting with him frm d clg as well as frm d house...nd he is nt dat dense to nt see d obvious nd as for treating Anu equal i havent seen anything of that sort nd if he is attracted to Anu then he is attracted to her simplicity or her abla naari status...bcoz for him she has an abusive bf whatevr im jus confused nd i disliked d way behaved...to peeya he was like a bro bt to devs he was flirting nd a bro doesnt flirt with ur lil sister 😕
