I am so glad for for this post. For the last few days, many people have been bashing either RKB or Mani or Ishita. This was a much needed post. Today's episode was one of the most emotional touching realistic episodes of YHM as per me. Everybody and I mean everybody acted well. Each character was right in its place.

People have been bashing Mani. But why? Just because he is showing Raman where he has been deficient as a husband? But is it not the truth? It is true RKB is a gem of a person. He is caring and loves his family. But what about Ishita? Has he ever bothered to ask her likes and dislikes? Forget that, how many times has RKB really sat down with Ishu for a sensible talk? During the Amma track there was this whole trust issue. He could tell Ishu the truth. They don't share a bed. I mean they don't have to do anything. But why can't he let her sleep on one side? What is wrong with that? Didn't they do it for Ruhi?

Has Raman ever sat and thought what Ishita means to him and his family? Yes he said it in his speech once. He also said it to spite Shagun. But saying it in public and sharing it with one's spouse in private is different. But that does not mean RKB is bad or brute. He immensely likes Ishita, cares for her, and does his best. But he is still in a shell...a shell in which he has cocooned himself because of his bitter experience with Shagun. He needs a push to come out of it and that is where Mani comes in.

People are reacting badly to Mani. But why? Has Mani said anything wrong today? He was asking Raman to speak properly. Was that wrong? Raman was being brute. Whatever Raman said about scrapbook was true. But whatever Mani said about "pati" and "accha pati" was equally true. Few days back, even MiMi had said that Raman is caring but Ishra have not had any KKHH moment. "It is caring...only not exactly love"... Mihika had said it.
My question to Raman is had Mani been a girl and had known everything about Ishita, tab bhi kya problem hota? Nahin... RKB is reacting like this because Mani is a male friend.

Raman is madly in love. He needs a push.. a jhatka to declare that to Ishu. mani is just providing that. As a good friend, he is looking out for his best friend. What is wrong about that?

Raman, Mani and Ishu are exactly doing what their characters are supposed to do. The track is going just like it should for Raman's confession. The acting for all has been excellent. It will be good if people stop bashing a character and just watch the episodes.


Hello Rose! Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us, I cannot tell you how refreshing it is to read your brilliant post. I completely agree with you that Raman, Mani and Ishita are doing exactly what their characters are supposed to do. The problem is, we tend to react with a knee jerk reaction when we see our favorite 'couple' in trouble because of a new entry.
I had mentioned this about Shagun in some other post that people aren't inherently evil, they may be selfish but they aren't evil. Mani is thinking like a friend and is trying to protect his best friend from Raman who he perceives to not good enough for his Ishu. So no one is evil, all the characters are good people it's just how the react in situations of distress that somehow define their 'goodness'.

You are spot on when you say that Raman isn't bad, he does love Ishita and cares for her and her entire family but he just needs a little nudge to come out of his past and start living in the present. In our lives and our relationships, we tend to get complacent and start taking people for granted. And I think that complacency was starting to creep in Ishra's life until Mani shows up with a huge reflective mirror showing the gap and cracks in their relationship. I am so in love this show, and I can't believe it's Balaji show because it has the guts to have a male lead that is damaged, real, flawed and vulnerable. Ishita on the other hand is also damaged, she is hurt, she is lonely and she is scared to trust and love again. What helps Ishita is that there is a constant threat of Shagun snatching her happiness and that always keeps her on her toes. And now Mani is providing the so called 'threat' to Raman and that is difficult for people to digest.

Also let me tell you that you blew my mind with this question, " had Mani been a girl and had known everything about Ishita, tab bhi kya problem hota? Nahin... RKB is reacting like this because Mani is a male friend" I never thought of this angle, and it's mind boggling had the same incidents happened, where the iyers are showering love on Ishu's friend, the friend knowing more about Ishu than Raman but the difference is that friend is a female. Would RKB still be upset with that friendship.

Last but not least, I agree all the actors are doing a tremendous job and it's a treat to watch them!

Hellooo Nisha!!!!
I share your concern about changes in Raman, I really do hope that they don't make Raman into a wimp. What makes Ishra special is Raman and Ishita with their strong individuality. There won't be any magic if Raman will start behaving like a infatuated teenager. Realizing that he loves his wife doesn't mean that his one liners, taunts and his jokes need to stop, I hope the CV's find balance between this couple's love while maintaining their individuality.

And I 100% agree when you say, "In real marriages 100% compatibility cannot be achieved", that little friction and difference make the relationship dynamics. Raman's hotheadedness combined with Ishita's calm and composed demeanor make this couple click. RKB is yin to Ishita's yang.

And thank you so very much for liking my posts, and always finding time to comment on them. It is so nice to interact with you, always get to learn something new from your posts.

I personally only care for the love story Doc
I try and read as many posts that talk about it and share my two cents
I particularly like your posts for the way you articulate your thoughts in a logical manner
Occupational hazard?
