Sona showed some very worrying behaviour today, when she didn't return Dev's apology in the car, sulked through his entire speech, and ended their fight only with grudging acceptance and further defence of her point of view. Don't get me wrong, I am always in support of Sona expressing her anger -- or whatever her feelings might be -- to Dev, but this was something entirely different. As far as we know her, Sona has always been very direct in her opinions. If she had a problem with Dev, she told him to his face and ended it then and there. Sulking and silent treatment were *never* her style. In fact, as much as I hate to say it, her behaviour in the car today had Ishwari written all over it!

Uncompromisingly honest communication (barring the infertility thing, I know), and the ability for each one to really listen to the other and understand their point of view, have been the greatest strengths of Dev and Sona's relationship. After every single fight they had before this, BOTH of them have apologised to each other, because they took time to understand each other's perspectives. Today for the first time I was left hanging when after Dev shared his feelings, I expected Sona to show that she understood how she had upset Dev, and where she might have gone wrong, She completely failed to validate his point of view, even when she knew he had a point (why else would she have hesitated to tell him?). If Sona is not more careful about the changes she's allowing in herself, there is a very real risk of the two losing the very thing that makes their relationship special.

Yes, a lot of the time, Sona has a more mature read on situations than Dev, but he definitely complements her blind spots, especially where her stubbornness to have her way comes to the fore. If Dev loses the prerogative to communicate with her at these times, and puts her on a pedestal, assuming she's always right, afraid that Sona won't communicate with him otherwise, then what makes his relationship with Sona any different from his relationship with Ishwari? And I think we can all agree, Dev does not need another Ishwari. 😕

I know it didn't seem like a big incident today, and that their fight was all patched up, but I feel it's these little things that gradually lead to the emotional distance we see in Neha and Ranveer's case; the very things you loved about a person become cause for resentment. I would be totally on board if Sona got a sharp reality check from her saucy nanad. Nobody knows better than Neha that there's no reward or recognition guaranteed when you sacrifice... instead, no matter how much you give, some people will just keep taking until they take you for granted! You should prioritise those few people who genuinely care about your happiness, most of all, yourself!

Brilliant analysis Sam! I have exactly same sentiments about that conversation. I personally felt that Sona should have apologised first because she was at fault, much more than Dev. Infact in my opinion, dev gave her a reality check - and even came down to Bose family, understanding her mellowed mood and point of view.
One very significant quality of Dev that he has displayed in ample quantity has been his unwavering appreciation of Sona and how he recognises her intelligence, grit, strength and maturity, without fail. I haven't seen Sona returning any such compliments to Dev.
Even when her dad was rude with him, Dev has been super understanding. No ill-will, no negativity towards them - he has a big heart.

great post Sam... that was exactly my worry from today's episode.

1. Sona didnt say anything when Bijoy was taunting Dev for no fault of his... isnt this exactly what GKB does to Sona... So i guess CVs want to point out that one should stand up for themselves and not wait for a saviour. I liked how Dev stood up and explained to Bijoy...

2. Sona Sulking and not accepting Dev's apology... i understand she probably didnt have a choice.. so she should have atleast explained him that Maa told this clause later and i didnt feel that it was right to back out because of abstinence rule. Maa kya sochegi... etc etc and sorry but i didnt have a choice or what ever...

but she prefered sulking and Dev had to manofy her...

Sona should stay away from Neha until Neha herself comes to her and opens up..

I know Sona needs to be very careful and intelligent in her thoughts.She needs to be more supportive of Dev. She is now going to understand how everybody takes advantage of Dev especially Ishwari. From the beginning she has been unfair to all her children. She thinks and had made everyone feel including Dev that she has given more importance to Dev but she has done that only (knowingly or unknowingly) thinking he will be her support system. Sonakshi should understand that and should always be more matured and supportive towards Dev .Dev also should realize her mom is not so innocent in her actions or words.
After marriage Dev has been more matured and understanding and also expressing his love and feelings. Sona should reciprocate in better way.She did feel guilty about accepting to do fast at least she should have expressed the same to Dev.

Dona was absolutely right cause dev never gets it. He never listens to full story. He created a really bad situation between ishwari and sons.. brunt of which only Dona has to face. And she knows it. All her hard work of trying to fit in his family down the drain by dev yelling at his mom. Dev has to stop being childish and grow up. His sorry wasn't good Enuff and he didn't learn anything 😡 as soon as next situation arose... ishwari representing Dona for calming dev down... he justified his mum again... bullshit. Him and his mom only see the world from their POV and that's sona's problem with him.

@bold- bang on! How do CVs commit such mistakes I don't understand. They create magical scenes and then defy logic or like today, left it incomplete and lose out on an opportunity to make it heart warming . The execution is flawed 😡

Sam , how do you keep noticing these nuances and analyse it so brilliantly !!! After watching that patch up scene , I felt something was missing, and I was expecting Sona's apology as well ,because I had seen more than once Sona apologizing to Dev even when it was not really necessary like during their first fight and patch up in rain , or when she was convincing him to sit in Pooja . But never in million times I would have compared it with Ishwari's behaviour with Dev ... Or took it as alarming till I read your post !!! 👏 But it makes so much sense !!! I also admire the honesty (sometimes brutal) in their relationship more than anything else ... And thats what I liked about yesterdays fight , even though Dev knew she was hurt , he didnt hold back and tried to make his point just like Sona justified herself .But after reading your post I really hope Sona wont go in this way further , and Dev would not make it his mantra that "You are always right" !!!

" Nobody knows better than Neha that there's no reward or recognition guaranteed when you sacrifice... instead, no matter how much you give, some people will just keep taking until they take you for granted! You should prioritise those few people who genuinely care about your happiness, most of all, yourself! "

This is just ... 👏👏👏 It can't be said in a better way !!! I'm so happy CVs are using Neha at the right time and I'm more than excited !!! Once again can't appreciate you enough for your unique perspective !!!

Sona's reaction speaks a lot both when Ish ordered Dev to hore Vicky or today when Ish accused Dev of forgetting his responsibilities bcoz of his marriage. I think gradually Sona is observing how Ish makes Dev feel so guilty abt his own happiness n how Dev is burdened by family responsibilities. Ish questions Dev's loyalty n that just hit the bulls eye n then Dev does whatever Ish asks him to do.

Regd fast she should have properly explained to Dev abt the circumstances in which she accepted to do it. But their reconciliation in car did seemed that Sona doesn't feel Dev understands her.

Hi, Sam almost missed your post. Today both you and Maham is there. It is a treat. You have a unique and amazingly unbiased way of looking at things. Will try to add my comments later. But reading you all gives so much satisfaction that your mind and heart is at rest n not at war and don't feel like writing anything since I am at peace.
