Sona picked an activity that she likes without considering if Dev even likes it or not. You cannot say she is the only one working on the relationship when she doesn’t even bother to know his likes or dislikes. If she truly wanted to make an effort, the best thing to do is pick an activity that he likes and enjoys. That is how relationships work. Not like Sona who wants Dev to be her puppet who does only what she wants him to do at what time she says and has to like and dislike only what she says. And if he does something of his choice makes a big show of her forgiveness and how great she is.
Instead of being always biased and expecting Dev to fit the mold that Sona creates, why not see him as a person in his own right just like Sona. And give him a break and show some empathy and understanding.
Agreed, so what should Dev do when his wife picks up an activity that he doesnt enjoy?? He needs to talk to her and tell her that he doesnt enjoy Yoga. Why not pick something that the two of them enjoy. This is the same with Sonakshi. Only in this season , she is this vocal. At least some amount of frustration is coming out.
Counselling was needed because these two dont communicate. Sona doesnt communicate because she feels he will share it with his mother and his mother might not like what they both do. So prefer to do in hiding. He doesnt communicate because of the same fear. Watch the initial promo when he comes to return a pen. "Ajeeb hai na Dev , Mein tumhare ma ko mana nahi sakthi aur tum apne ma ko mana nahi kar sakte" This dialogues speaks it all.
It is very important for married couple to talk to each other and discuss their likes and dislikes. Its fine to say "no" when you do not want to do something that the other person wants to do. At least your spouse will know your likes and dislikes. He/she deserves to know.
