Correction, they didn't..
Who didn't?
Pia was strong, Vividha too was fantastic! Mauli and quite a few..
Well, post leap they kind of derailed Mauli's character. Because a big reason for choosing Ishaan was Mishti. I had never thought that I could love any other ITV FL more than her but I actually ended up praising Piya more. At least she didn't need someone else's help to raise her kid. She showed strength both as a wife and a mother. Mauli let Ishaan's mother speak rubbish just because she was a divorcee. Only bright side was - they redeemed her at the last episode when she chose Ishaan going against family pressure.
