A lot of people seem surprised that Jannu is after Shiva- but if you think about it, this goes back to the scene when Dev and Shiva go to hit him. Shiva not only hit him, but rubbed slat on his wounds with his dialogues and then went on to get his Motiben slapped by the house help.
While Janardhan completely got what he deserved, if you think from his perspective it was a major blow to his ego. He always felt he was the Seth and he could not be questioned by anyone. This 20 something year old boy not only breached his house(akin to his fortress), beat him up in front of his wife, daughter and his mother-like sister. He was humiliated and stripped of his power in front of his men and house help, the very people he presides over arrogantly.
now as to why he would fixate on Shiva, my rough guess is that Janardhan probably thinks Shiva is the strongest of the brothers(in terms of strength). Janardhan is no mastermind himself and believes in resolving issues by brute force. In his mind, Shiva is a bigger threat than his brothers. He might be conditioned think Gaumbi and Dev are too soft or “sharif”, because of their image built up over the years, probably since childhood. He might feel that getting Shiva(the physical strength) out of the way will weaken the family.
I will not comment on Dev, but Janardhan is clearly underestimating Gaumbi. “Sharif insaan ki sharaafat ke saath kheloge, toh usse bada gunda koi nahin hota”. Just because someone is avoiding a fight, does not make them weak. Seemingly weak people will move mountains to save the thing they love.By striking Shiva and the store, Janardhan thinks he is striking the backbone of the family and will cripple them. What he doesn’t realize is that the entire family, including his own daughter, will rally around Shiva and the store, making them stronger and a force to reckon with. 😊
lovely analysis 🤗
while I do think Jannu is inherently after Shiva because of previous incidents, the way I saw it was at the time it was most convenient for him to go after Shiva as he was in a vulnerable position of selling trucks to make up for lost money
even during the kidnapping incident, he wanted dev to be kidnapped as well so if he had the option - I feel he would target the both of them
I'm not really sure though 😆
