Why do you think Ishwari is unable to accept any girl in Dev's life? - Page 3

Is Dev not Iswari's son? Is he adopted? why the insecurity..

Jocasta Complex ...The domineering and intense, but non-incestuous love that an mother has for an intelligent son, and an often absent or weak father

That's an interesting contradiction you have there. Either she considers him her husband or he us a child.

Let me try to put your point in a different way.

She was probably used to being the most important in her husbands life and after his death, she found that in Dev. Having depended on that bond for so long she now is scared of not being the most important person in Devs life anymore.

She has devoted all her life for her son and expects the same devotion from Dev in return. She has even given her daughters' share of her love to Dev and so she can't even think about Dev loving someone other than his mother. Ish clearly maintains a distance between Dev n his sisters n nvr miss a chance to display her affection for Dev. She feels since she has sacrificed so much for Dev's wellbeing, Dev sacrificing this basaati naala type love is no big deal.
