After today's episode everyone is so stuck upon sisters reaction. Yes we all feel for Dev , a person who , worked for his family all his life , lived only for them , came clean about being in love ... We expected everyone to be happy for him ... We wanted to see the teasing of sisters ...
But I can't say enough about the realistic approach they are taking ... Its easier to predict how we will behave if we are given a situation ... But human behavior is wayyy more complex than we think ...
I had faced such situation in my life too ... One of my very close friend is married to my cousin brother ... And when they came clean about their relationship (obviously I was the first one knew about it in my family), my reaction was very strange ... Its not that I was not happy for him knowing the beautiful wonderful person my friend is , and for the fact that we would never part our ways now that she would be part of my family ... All these thoughts only came later ... But at first I was shocked that it was happening under my nose , and I was so concerned if it was going to work out with our very traditional orthodox family . In my case after some long discussions and arguments , and made sure how serious they were of each other , I was the one advocating for them in my family , giving them moral support , and obviously pulled their leg the most after situations became normal 😉...
Yes when somethings that we least expect happens, first we think about the implications of that change ... It's so natural ... Here as Riya said they refer them as "second class citizens" , because all of them are very much aware of the bond between Dev and mom , and for the very fact that his whole life he lived only for them , they love and respect him too much to be jealous (Not including Neha here, that topic should be up for another discussion) ...
As Neha said playfully once, Ishwari didn't even let his sisters come in between mom n son then forget about an outsider , they all are conscious about how difficult it will be for Ishwari to accept another woman in Dev's life . Forget about love , knowing their brother , they all expected if it ever happens , it would be through Ishwari only ... And here they come to know that he is in love not only that the person he is in love with is none other than Ishwari's nutritionist who was there in their house this whole time ... So its natural for all of them to react the way they did ... I am actually amazed how realistically the writers are showing these complex human emotions for me at least, it was relatable... Don't worry after this news settle in , I am sure we would get to see lots of teasing from them .
So let's take a chill pill for now and trust CVs ...
