And all of this is simply because they all sorely misread their motivations for getting into this marriage.....is HS really so dumb that just cuz Mini kept extracting promises from him to take care of Babita, he thinks that he himself doesn't need to become Mini's father? That this unit can survive simply on him having his thing on the side with Babita and just checking in on Mini once in a while as needed? lol come on.....yeah I get his lack of self confidence now given the many incidents but this level of oversimplification is now feeling contrived from the writers....thanks to lack of communication.
Why does the paternal instinct only need to come out when challenged? Husband instinct toh aaraam se nikalta rehta hai iska....despite having such a prickly bipolar wife.....lol
LOL HS-Mini keeping an equation on the side again won't solve the basic issues.....bas hi-hello toh yeh log abhi bhi kar lete hain......if there is nothing more they feel the need to address or evolve on then what's the point? Real conversations mein kisi ko interest hi nahin hai....bas surface level pe generalizations mein baat karte hain.
If this was any other kind of second marriage, then equation ko itne tak hi rakhna would totally be realistic.....but for HS-Mini to not even dwell a little bit on where they stand with each other after all this doesn't add up.....even if they only want to stay Uncle and Veer Balika all their lives, where are the conversations? Ki duniya bakwaas kar rahi hai, but we know how we want to handle this.....where are those convos?
That just shows then how much trust is still lacking if they can't share these things with each other.....baaki toh love and affection hai.....bas bharosa nahin hai.
No no, you didn't say that. But a lot of people feel that him prioritizing Babita is a bad thing. Yes it's feeling contrived. For HS not to understand the subtleties of the situations Minnie is dealing with goes so against his character. It's not like he's got amnesia or something. He has to find the balance between being a father and a husband, something he would have had to do even if Minnie had come into his life as a newborn.
I mean, I know the writers had told us through NB that none of them had thought things through but I didn't think it would mean that they would just go about it as though nothing had happened. That just getting married would mean they were suddenly going to find the happiness they had all been looking for.
I also find it hard to believe that HS and Minnie's equation would remain just superficial and light-touch, if you know what I mean. As for his paternal instinct, time will tell where this is going. Just to create drama they ruined things with the CD fiasco, then his lack of introspection etc. Since they've patched up, there have been little touches, but I guess we will find out, based on what him yelling at Minnie is about.
I also get the feeling that on some level they are trying to show he is tired of all this kalesh at home, which is fine, but just make it clear already.
@bold... I know, right? They promised us so much but nothing happened. I still hope we get to see it at some point, but done in a proper way. It's fine if they build on it bit by bit rather than have one major confrontation.
I had thought it would be resolved due to Khatri or maybe now with NB's court case, but doesn't look like it.
