Before I delve into the topic, I want to say that I am loving the show right now, and as always, my faith in the writers is intact. I love the way this show is written, the way the characters have been built and the way the story is shaping up. Suman's conversation with Ramnath was bang on. Shravan's desperation to catch hold of Suman and just let go of the secret he's kept to himself, it hits you right on point. This post is just a random observation, because I love Pushkar too much.
Pushkar has been one character that I have loved more than ShraMan at times. The guy just bowls you over because not only he is the biggest shipper of our favourite couple, but also because he has been the voice of reason for Shravan when he needed it the most, he has been Shravan's conscience whenever he digressed from the right path, he never shied away from showing his brother the reality of situation and boldly voiced his opinions on what was wrong and what was right. These are the reasons we cannot help but love Pushkar for the sweetness and righteousness he carries in his heart.
But lately, Pushkar's character has taken a 180 degree turn and he is behaving in the most non-Pushkar-like way.
First off, how did Pushkar not see the set of unreasonable demands his mother put forward for Preeti's family? At some level Kamini's demands are justified, she may have exaggerated them with the mindset of getting rid of this alliance, but all the mothers do want their sons to get married with lots of pomp and show. But why did Pushkar not realise that those demands are too taxing for Preeti's family? I can understand Preeti not bothering about the expenses, she usually has been like this, not that it makes her insensitive because the girl loves Suman and her family, but somewhere along the line, there are things she ignores when it really matters. Pushkar not being bothered is a new for me, he has seen the Tiwaris almost as much as Shravan, then why could an intelligent man like Pushkar not take a stand against Kamini's demands? Shravan clearly saw the discomfort of the Tiwari clan, so how did Pushkar miss it?
Secondly, today Pushkar saying all what he did to Shravan about Preeti being so understanding, where did that come from? It is pretty obvious Preeti is the dominant one in their relation. Pushkar more often than not meekly agrees with her, then where did the whole misunderstanding of understanding and cooperation crop up from?
I still love Pushkar and I think the story is going at the perfect pace. But if someone could explain to me if Pushkar is really behaving unlike himself, or is it just me, I'd appreciate it. Because I could let go of the second instance, but the first is just bothering me.
