100% true..That, and the times she used to be real insecure during his first trip..I mean arent couples supposed to, after 7 years of being in a relationship, reach a point where they can say they trust the other person? She was very insecure, clingy and possessive. It can be argued that it was because she held her mom and dad responsible for their dysfunctional marriage and thought if someone can tune themselves to align their character with the other, then a marriage could work out. Thats why Adi said indirectly that talking to Malini made him feel like talking to a mirror. There was nothing new or original about her.
But here you cant blame Malini too. She just wanted at any cost, avoid a marriage like her mom and dad. So she thought if she could be compliant with her partner everything could work out. Little did she realize that even if you are complying to each other, the marriage can still go toxic, like Dev and Anu. She was just judging their relationship on its face value. They were also suffocated by each other just by trying to 'settle down' with each other like her and Adi when there was no love for each other.
True
Malini dint know the truth. All she saw was her parents who supposedly fell in love with each other but just had a relationship which is toxic and suffocating. So she felt knowing a person, spending 7 years, learning his ideas and tuning to those likes can make that best friend a good husband. Falling in love and marrying immediately, she felt it would someday turn like her parents marriage. Ofc this is what I feel when I look at her in the initial episodes, her dialogues infront of Devi ki Murti, her family history.
It wasn't love waala love between them ever. Bas kuch palon me woh dosti waala pyaar thoda dikhta. Baaki most of the times it was just being compatible.
M knew everything changed after her father visited PD. I'm assuming her insecurity was because of that as well ki wahan jaake Adi bhi na badal jaaye. I felt that listening to her conversation with Adi when he had called from PD.
Bold: they came together by choice. There was love but not a deep one. She grew bitter when she had an inkling of his affair. But they stuck on to save their face in society.
