I read some posts where people are claiming a. Sonakshi never loved Dev because she agreed to marry someone else. b. Sonakshi should be lonely after being dumped because what else a woman should do?
Sonakshi loved Dev enough to constantly tolerate insults, mood swings, arrogance of Dev's family. She didn't leave Dev, he dumped her after convincing her that he loves her and will never leave her. Why? Because mummy dearest doesn't like Sona because she didn't choose her.

Did he took even a second to ask his mother, "What is your problem with Sona? What did she do to make you hate her when you were singing her praises for convincing your daughter to not insult her husband's family in her wedding day by wearing her brother's expensive lehenga?"

No. He decided a life partner is dispensable and can be chucked out at family's whim.

Okay. Fair enough.

Sona's family were planning her marriage for way longer than Dev's so called love. They let her choose her life partner. But when that said partner turned out to be unreliable, they could not see their daughter in pain so they arranged a marriage for her hoping to help her move on. Dev pleased his mummy, why should not Sona please her family?

Why it's okay for a man to dump his girlfriend to please his mummy's whim, but it's not okay for a woman to marry to please hers?

If she hides her past from her prospective groom, that's being unfair. But if she is honest with him about her past and knowing everything he is willing to marry her, then why should not she marry him? Why would she waste her life and time pining away for someone who dumped her like yesterday's garbage?

A lot of relationship starts with mutual understanding, trust, honesty, loyalty and respect and grows into friendship and love. It's quite obvious, Dev does not respect Sona nor understands her nor has any loyalty to her. All of his respect, understanding and loyalty is to his mother.

If Sona had dumped Dev because of her family and Ishwari had asked Dev to marry, do you think Dev will still ignore his mom's wish and pine for Sona? I can bet you he won't.

If a woman is asked to choose between her husband and family and she chooses her family, she is a bad wife. But if a man is asked to choose between his wife and family and he chooses his family, he is a good son. Double standard much?

What Dev and Ishwari have gone through, Neha and Ishwari also have gone through. Yet Ishwari wants Dev to not interfere in Neha's married life but she wants to interfere in Dev's. We all know that is double standards, then why apply it to Sonakshi?

If a woman wants to move on with her life, she never loved before. But if a man moves on, then he was heartbroken and it's the woman's fault.

Stop blaming women for their choices. A woman doesn't have to prove to anyone how much she loves if she loves nor she needs to give justification for her decision to move on or stay single. This is 21st century and about time a women gets their right to choose their own life's decision of which one of major ones Dev took alone without asking Sona what she wants.

You shot every point on target bullseye! People should re read what they are saying. This show is making us realize how much we assign different judgements to different values and situations. 👏

Awesome post!!! 👏👏
Not only did he dump her for his mother-he fired her too!!! I mean how nasty and mean can you be??? Did you even give her notice? Did you fire her because she was bad at her job? More than the whole, I am giving you up for my mother BS-this really bothered me.

Her family is dependent on her income-just like his family is dependent on him going to work every day and bringing in all the money. You just fire her because you decide to break up with her? What about your professionalism you 🤬?? Is this what you would do if she worked in your company?? You are taking those liberties with her because she is in love with you and you had convinced her that you loved her. Any other girl would have sued him for unfair termination from work...yes I know it is a serial but still that really got me upset!!!

Well imo it's neither on for a man to dump a woman (without a just cause) just to please his mother..nor is it OK for a woman to marry another man just to please her parents..
Both these decisions are not to be taken in haste and not for the wrong reasons too

Plus the latter involves someone else's life too ( though the lack of involving someone else doesn't make Dev dumping sonakshi on by any means) and has a finality to it.

Imo both are acting in haste

Take a bow ! 🥳

Couldn't agree more ! I honestly can't bear to see Sonabear crying buckets over a guy like Dev.. He is not even a good son imo, a person who blindly trusts and follow his mother without evaluating her decisions/thoughts, can be utterly destructive and can cause big downfall for both if situation demands..

Sona is lot lot better human being than Dev from all perspective - mature, calm, understanding, more patient, intelligent, decent and neutral.. Dev lacks half the qualities .. And I don't even want to comment about the way of break-up, the total lack of effort, the utter callousness in failing to keep promises is appalling to me.. As of now he no way deserves Sona, 2 days of tears don't change my mind sorry..

Sona has again proved to be a sincere daughter who sticks to her promise to try to move on, and she is doing it.. And she proves to be a loyal and sincere partner to Rithwik too, by telling him about her past.. She is by every means a 21st century independent and good woman.. All in for the upcoming track ! 🥳

You are right. Both are acting in haste. But my post was not to show Sona as right or wrong. My point is for those posts which said Sona never loved Dev because she is willing to move on. The point is that Dev made his choice when he dumped Sona. Now if Sona decides to marry someone else to please her family, then she has full right to take her decision. Whether the decision was right or wrong that's irrelevant now, only time would tell. What matters more is having the right to make a decision.

Like I said, Dev never gave her any right to decide whether she wants to break up. If he really respected her, he could have asked her for a solution regarding his mom. May be Sona would have suggested Psychiatrist or she would have suggested for them to be careful and help his mom get over her insanity, who knows? But she never got to decide. When there are two adult, rational people in a relationship, how can one person take decision on both of their behalf?

Now Sona has a choice. Whether she marries someone else to please her family or pine away her life, it's her choice. Provided she is truthful about her past to the prospective groom. And knowing the kind of woman she is, she will be honest with the groom. And again, the groom has a choice to marry Sona knowing she loves someone else or walk away or stay in her life as a friend.

Everyone is giving Sona a choice except Dev and his family.

Even if she goes back to Dev, will she ever have a choice or everything will run at his mom's whim? How would that feel to an independent woman like Sona to be treated like second class family member within her own husband's family where she was treated like equal in hers?

Why should always the woman understand a man's love for his family and the man only considers his family? Did Dev think that by dumping Sona he is also hurting her family who accepted him and came to his house to talk about marriage? No. His world revolves around his mother.

Unfortunately, as long as his mother is the central focus of his life, he can never have a happy relationship with anyone else.

Unlawful termination aside, he never even considered how her family would feel who came to fix their alliance. In that way, he was incredibly selfish to treat Sona as if he was doing a favour by loving her and she should be grateful to serve his family's whim. As if she doesn't have a life or a family who could feel insulted and upset by this break up.
