Dev's memory

During the 7 year leap, Dev remembered every single moment, every single memory with his wife- calls her Ms. Khargosh 7 years after separation and then he just forgot about all that in 1-2 years? Come on writers what are you doing? 🤦🏻‍♀️

He's ghajni now. Can't even remember if he called her khargosh or hiran.

Yeah....the Titanic stuff is still digestible. He was not interested in Titanic anyway.

Anniversary date.... not so digestible, but still efforts can be made to overlook this since apparently, guys are not that good with dates.

But he forgot he called her "Ms Khargosh"? 😲 What type of blasphemy is this? 🤪He himself gave that name to her & kept calling her that all these years....& now just forgot? 😕 Ishwari needs to stop making halwa & feed him badam wala doodh now.😆

I think I have the answer. During the 7 year leap, even though he hated SONA, she was still lingering all over his mind. Time spent with her was subconsciously one of his cherish memories so he remembered each and everything related to her and longed for her company. However, now they have been together for so long (since the date thing is so confusing, I am assuming the leap was only for 3-4years🤣)that they have started taking each other for granted. Now, They are emotionally drifted, lack healthy communication, and don't have romance in their life. Maybe this season is all about DevAkshi rediscovering their love and building their relationship all over again💞💞

I am super excited about it as well.💯💯

Where is our loved dev😔. Forget abt his memory. They changed his basic character of kindness. Previous seasons, he was kind person only thing was he couldn't be good with sona. Where is that dev, who opened children ward for poor n where is that dev who was was ready to bear 20% loss just to save workers job. Here he is just been like normal business man giving ransom to vacate place at any cost to build high rises building.

I think someone in some other thread gave this answer ...and I found that answer very apt for this situation

Actually that 7 yr separation was never in writer's card, they had to take that root because of backlash and trp.... and when they again meet each other the problems they had and ishwari had never addressed again .... everyone just accepted each other without serious redemption track...I mean usually their tracks were similar to what really happened in day to day life...like their first separation is actually very common in india how parents won't agree for love marriage and one of them either end up giving their life or marrying someone else... That exactly happened sona' engagement and dev condition ....all led to Ishwari realisation but her bitterness towards sona was still there....also this thing happen very commonly how a both partner anyhow prepare their respective parents for marriage and bitterness will be there from in laws side for girls

But after second separation, and ishwari bangle track they reconcile , dev realised his mistakes but that 'bangle track' didn't happen in real life ... In fact I find major tracks after separation didn't happen in real life...it was written just to satisfy audience

But production and everyone was actually interested in continuing pre separation story.... If we see this track thinking separation never happened (except that delivery in kolkata part) .... everything will be set at their right place... Like how ishwari is still that pre leap ishwari... Sona still feeling that outsider....dev-sona still not communicating well... And after 9 yrs of marriage he forgot that ms. Khargosh....I hope this they resolve their differences in practical approach not earlier like Bangle stolen track

Honestly, even I didn't like the part where he forgot the nickname which he only gave to her. But then I realized that they are emotionally drifted now and have immersed themselves in other things other than spending time with other.

But I want the old sona-dev love back😭

Very disappointed dev has lost his romance, love, cute nerves from his body😒..how come he forgets sonas pet name he use to call!! I have seen elderly couple who r their 80's still use pet name to call each other and dev babu ? Very sad 🤔

Yes. That is what seems to have happened in the original season. After rewatching the first season quite a few times, I always felt Devakshi's story got a happy ending, but Dev & Ishwari's characters didn't get the closure they should have. My guess was that initially, Ishwari was the central character. The show was meant to be her journey from a possesive mother to an understanding & welcoming Mother In Law. Dev & Sonakshi were secondary characters, tools to take her through this journey. But most probably Devakshi got popular & people really didn't understand Ishwari & thought she was the villain & that's what decided the fate of the story ahead.

Devakshi is addictive, I got addicted too 😆 I don't mind the 7 years separation. Upto that point the show was very realistic. Things like that do happen in real life. Marriages do end in bitter divorces because of possesive mothers who don't treat their daughter in laws as a part of their son's life & sons who are too blind towards their mother to be a supportive husband. Till the separation everything was alright. The separation itself was alright.

But it went a bit filmy AFTER the separation, especially the way they reconciled. Dev's contribution into the whole fiasco was totally brushed aside & it was made out to be like Devakshi's marriage didn't sustain only because Ishwari didn't like Sonakshi. Dev's negligence towards Sonakshi's emotional needs, him pressuring her to always bend before his mother's whim & at the end throwing her out with some serious allegations on her like.... being a cunning gold digger, a homewrecker vamp etc were never mentioned again. And after the separation he was so venomous towards her... even after knowing about Suhana, knowing about her struggles to bring up his daughter while simultaneously trying to overcome the financial crisis his family put her into, he showed zero empathy towards her. He actually took pleasure in verbally abusing her & showing a serves you right attitude. That's not how a person who genuinely loves the other behaves. Pre-leap Dev was flawed but very very realistic. Post-leap Dev was a mess. And then, suddenly, within a span of 2 episodes he did a backflip & confessed that he still loves her & wants her back. Because he got to know she was trying to help his mother in the Khatri track. The whole Khatri track was orchestred to make the Beta & the Maa fall in love with Sonakshi one by one. Ultimately the whole issue was made out to be Ishwari misjudging Sonakshi & not liking her, which was never the case. Ishwari never had any personal problems with Sonakshi. She was very fond of her nootrition, she even gave her tips on how to behave properly when she first went to meet Kushal, used to wonder fondly how she will keep chiding her Mother in law over what to add in food & what to not etc. Ishwari started to have problems only when Dev started loving her & thus giving her an important place in his life, a place Ishwari wanted only for herself. She could never accept Sonakshi because she was scared Sonakshi will become more important to Dev than Ishwari herself was. Ishwari never doubted Sonakshi being a good girl. But ultimately that's how it was made to be & a whole track was created to show Sonakshi's goodness to Ishwari. That's where the story lost its plot imo, before that everything was fine. The reconciliation was very quick, with zero contribution from Dev's side....& It was shown that since Ishwari likes her now so no problem anymore. And then suddenly everything was alright between Devakshi too.

I wouldn't mind if they showed that in season 1 that "happily ever after" was only a temporary one with issues still buried deep inside. It was perfectly okay had they shown that with time the differences again cropped up. And address them finally in this season. That's what I thought they were going to show seeing the initial promos. But I don't understand why a baby swapping nonsense was needed for that.😒 Wanted to show Ishwari still being regressive? She could very well differentiate between Suhana & Shubh. Shubh is a boy too, no? 🤷🏻 Her partiality towards Shubh & negligence towards Suhana would have been enough to create a conflict between Sonakshi & Ishwari again. The more vocal Sonakshi dared to be about it, the more rapidly she would lose her favour with Ishwari. While Devakshi themselves could have drifted apart naturally because of work pressure, kids responsibilities etc. Dev could have very well believed that his mother is being more affectionate towards Shubh only because he is younger while only Sonakshi understood it was gender bias. Dev himself could be more inclined towards Shubh since he connects to him more (since it was him he took care of him most in the earlier days) & Suhana could be jealous of Shubh too. That would have been the realistic approach. Bringing in this child swapping & Suhana suddenly not being their original daughter & Dev - Ishwari suddenly going back to their older self.... I think they made this season even more unrealistic than the original one's filmy bit.🤦🏻

Right now it is like.....they wanted to reboot, but didn't want to let go of the previous content either & so are trying to make a messy khichdi out of all these 🥴

P.S. - Sorry for the long essay😆 I didn't realise I wrote so much😆

This! They made Dev apologize to everyone in the show but he never really said he did not mean any of those really mean things he said to Sona. At least when Viky was exposed, he should have regretted saying and doing all those things. The problem with Dev is he is a troubleshooter, does not really think long term. He never once asked Ishwari what she meant by separation or what problem did she have with Sona! Season 1 Dev would never have been so mean to Sona, she was the only friend and confidante he had.

This season poor Suhana has to be mean so that people empathize with Ayush. This creates team Sona and team Dev. That will hardly serve any purpose.

It would have been so much easier to start a new storyline, could have made Ishawari as Sona's mom or something.
