My point was simply that he cannot just brush aside the promise and pretend he never made it...he has a tendency to zone out things he said and did that he doesn't want to face.....and I don't want him to be let off the hook easy on this.....I want him to FACE what he did....that he made promises that he didn't fully understand.
Adjustment and evolution are part of this journey for him....but he can't just suddenly wake up one day and pretend a promise doesn't matter....he needs to go through the process of understanding why the promise was wrong to make and why it can't sustain in the long run.....and ultimately this is Karma coming for him.....so he will wallow in that purgatory for a bit too I'm sure....that emotionally torturous journey is part of what makes it a compelling watch😆.
Imlie is more idealistic than him about some things and yes, she does take promises more seriously....and then she is the one with bigger selfless streak willing to step back even at her own cost. Adi is not😆....he will fight for his right and make her fight too.....but this is just not as black and white a case to fight for....that is what will keep complicating it for Adi too even if he wants to fight for them. Exam ke case mein toh easy tha haq ke liye ladna.....but not here....here it's not clear who has what right, what haq.....thanks to Adi convoluting it all for so long by first not admitting his marriage with Imlie is valid and then going and marrying someone else.
Ohh yes!! He needs to definitely feel the burden of the choice and decision that he alone made when he married Malini. Imlie did support it but it was all his choice and decision.
@bold 2: That journey is something that I have been waiting for and I think it has kind of started, baby steps yet but the emotional struggle has started to be evident. Ab, we have to see how much "woh isse gol gol ghumate", and what bahanas he comes up , before he accepts his feelings and start facing the repercussions of his wrong choices and decisions.
PD was just small view of his ping pong bahanas from responsibility to farz to closure to career to marzi and he went from one to other within a span of couple of days. I just cant wait to see what he comes up with in Delhi to justify his feelings for Malini and his contradictory actions for Imlie. 😆
Edited: Also his emotional struggle related to Malini. When Imlie brought her up, his expression was apt as if he was not comfortable listening to her name He was struggling there too and then he went into his compartmentalizing mode that I will take care of my issues (I guess when time comes was the subtext😛)
