Hi Shruti, for once I do not agree completely with you..
That Adi called Papa Hooda.. Pa for the sake of Zoya hints at a certain opportunistic and manipulative streak from Adi's side.. that he needs to ply Mr.Hooda with such words to make him protect Zoya too..
Which I do not think is the case at all.. As I had mentioned in an earlier post of mine.. about parents and children and their relationship.. I think with this whole sojourn of running away, Adi realised that his dad is the one who can save him.. and despite all the past.. his dad did rush to him.. is what made him call him pa.. The way his dad has stood up for him, infront of Rajveer at every instance, saying mera beta.. mera beta has touched the intended spot..
Yes.. Adi wants Zoya to be saved too.. but this whole Pa business.. is not for Zoya or coz of Zoya alone. As we say Adi has matured as an individual.. the circumstances has made him grow.. Zo is part of the whole circumstances.. but to say the whole thing is now being driven by Zoya.. is something which I find hardpressed to believe.. Adi has had his share of betrayals from Sakshi.. Pooja and now understands family is family.. come what may..
And again as for Pooja and Sakshi, not trying to mend bridges between Adi and his dad.. we do not know that now, do we.. For all we know, they could have tried and Adi would never have understood or tried to listen to them.. When folks are childhood friends, a lot of angst is shared, am sure... and then the friend would have tried to reason too.. but after a point, they realise its futile..
right now, again circumstances are such that the value of every relationship is becoming crystal clear to Adi.. for me again, its got less to do with Zoya and any action of her.. she is again part of the context.. a catalyst but not the driver..
As for this whole protecting virtue business and Adi marrying her for that.. I rather hope not.. it leaves an unpleasant taste.. the whole thing..
