This show makes zero sense - Page 2

I genuinely think she needs to introspect about her relationship with him..think what's wrong with their relationship. The counselling is there for that ..they are slowly covering those topics. But I think she has this unhealthy need to be with him..even at the cost of her own self.

This is not a Dev criticising post but I'm genuinely baffled about the reason. Neither is it all about Ishwari.

Yeh toh jab samjh aayega then only I can tell.

This mother's death fiasco, slapping her father , mocking her infertility multiple times, knowing he might the reason they were on the streets and he still didn't check up.

The things are innumerable.

Like they say once is a mistake, twice is choice, thrice is a pattern.

Hmm. She seems to be too blind in love. Like she's practical about almost all things except when it comes to him.

Maybe her love for him as well as empathy for his turmoils is what keeps her with him. I don't know. She should've been extremely angry at him for his absence but she gave in coz he might again take stress and pop some more pills. Like us maybe she too has real low expectations...so when he does something even remotely pleasant... that's enough.

Thank you. You saved me from writing. I have been screaming at top of my lungs and writing this since S3 began & she was ready to take kids and walk away from DEV.

She really needs to realize that this is unhealthy toxic relationship-marriage. Her love for Dev is her dreaming about what she wants in a man and needing it from him. he is never going to fulfill her emotional needs or wants. respect, acknowledgement or appreciation. out of their 10+ yrs marriage they had been separated, he threw her out twice and 3 rd time she was going to walk away. speaks volumes. They are sliding all the issues under the rug and keep bringing new tracks which do not make sense.

We all discuss Dev's shortcomings or how dysfunctional he is. at the same time Sona has some issues why she needs to have Dev in her life. SOmetimes we want someone or something when we know we will never have them or have it. Sona comes from a healthy loving family. She doesn't have any emotional baggage from her childhood. So what is it that is keeping her in this Dixit family & marriage to Dev.😒😔

Exactly. I can't think of any other reason except that she's extremely in love.... blindly even. And that's her shortcoming.

By the time Sona realizes and accepts truth regarding Dev she will be so 💔 It takes that one moment to hit & you start seeing everything clearly. The curtain is lifted off your brain-heart.

At that moment She probably would suffer from nervous break down. would have lost all her self esteem, confidence, Assertiveness, objective thinking. Love for someone that deep can break you emotionally, mentally & physically. She is young and right now thinking about her kids and marriage to keep it all together. Doesn't realize the damage its doing to her inner self 😭

Self love is the best love. No one can make you happy more than you loving and be happy with yourself. In reality most beautiful, smart & intelligent successful women fall for a wrong person who are so wrong for them. those men Destroy not only their marriage but leave them broken. 😳

I doubt they have enough room to show this side of Sonakshi. They can't show it else the entire love story will crumble down... makers won't risk it entirely. That's the reason we saw her criticising him in parts initially.

Self love is very important. But when people indulge in self love are deemed to be selfish. It is something that one should be taught from childhood...that you are important too. What you feel, need and want matters too and should not be neglected.

i think sometimes when you're in a toxic relationship you don't realise.

like whenever dev pulls away attention and love she's like a fish out of water

I honestly think this mother's death fiasco is something they randomly pulled because the actress who plays Asha backed out. She made a post saying things did not work out with the PH a couple of months back. So the makers just made it a plot line without thinking things through. Dev has a lot of flaws but he loved Asha (in fact they had so many scenes post leap & he liked her the most too in the Bose house & she was always the one who pushed Sona to give Dev a chance even if Sona was reluctant). And it really doesn't make sense that he did not bother just for a random seminar. And now that they inserted this stupid plot, there is no way something this huge gets resolved by building a school in her name. The issue is, they more or less had a happy relationship by the end of S1 and S2. To restart this season, they reversed all of that & showed crap & have no clue how to resolve it now so they end up showing more crap

Dev is a genuinely nice guy. He can be very helpful, kind and considerate. He is beloved by all his employees, he is very caring towards his family. He works hard not because he himself loves his materialistic pleasures, but so he can provide as much as possible for his family. S1 shows how Sona sees his qualities and slowly, steadily falls in love with him. He didn't have time or the luxury to think or wonder about emotions like love, but when he did fall in love, he fell deeply and irrevocably. He loves Sona immensely, she is the center of his universe.

He has his set of flaws, which probably sets him apart from other ITV male leads who are perfect in all ways. Dev is not. He can be rude, ruthless, has anger issues, he makes short-term decisions without thinking through consequences, especially when it involves his mother. His main issue is his upbringing, his mental conditioning by his mother, which pulls him in directions that he himself rather not go. He couldn't bear to part with Sona, but he did, for his mother.

You see, Sona was HIS, his own happiness. His own happiness can never be greater than his mother and his family. So Sona can never be prioritized over his family. That is the fact of the matter. Sona also understands this. She never asks to be placed in that position either, because she is well aware that Dev, even if he wanted to, can't do it. It does not mean he doesn't love her or care about her, because he does, she knows that. But she is his own love, his life, which will never be prioritized over his duties and responsibilities.

There were instances in S1 where he behavior was abominable. The farmhouse scene was his absolute lowest point. He does apologize to Sona in the same farmhouse 7 years later and wonders why she is with him, why she helps him and his family, when he was never able to be with her and support her as she needed. What the writers failed to do was address those particular instances and have him apologize properly, but I guess the writers didn't want Dev to be too apologetic, or what? I don't know? ML syndrome?🙄

Asha's death: Dev shared a very lovely bond with Sona's mother. Asha truly understood Dev, sometimes even more than Sona. So saying that he didn't know she was sick and just left when Asha was dying, is something no fan of Kuch Rang will be able to digest. No way. Dev was simply not that person. The writers messed up big time when they just showed a casual "he left for seminar", instead of spending some episodes showing exactly what happened. Dev stayed with Ayush's grandfather when he was in the hospital, but left Asha? No way. She was his favorite Bose girl. But oh well, the writers wrapped up a good and interesting track in a hurry, just to bring in this Serendipity woman. 🤷‍♀️

My personal interpretation/justification from that half-baked Asha story the writers threw at us is this: Asha may have taken a turn for the worse when he left, and died. He would have come back right away, but wasn't there with Sona when that moment happened. He understood Sona's pain of losing her mother, but didn't realize the anger that was due to his absence in that specific moment. He probably thought he needed to give her space and with time, the wound festered making it worse for their relationship.

Why he left in the first place, when she was in the hospital, I cannot come up with any explanation for it other than the writers just wanted some weird drama. S1 Dev would not have left. 🤷‍♀️ But the writers are excellent in inconsistencies. So maybe this was the Dev who didn't check up on Sona for 7 long years🤷‍♀️, which I found highly improbable back then as well.🤷‍♀️

The issue with Indian TV shows is that they take up conflicts but don't resolve it properly. They show one of the leads cheating/being toxic/misunderstanding/doing nonsense for drama/conflict/TRP and then turn them around overnight and make them resolve everything when they have to move on to the next track. This is why you have this marriage-divorce-almost marriage with third angle-remarriage again cycle in daily soaps. And this is also why 90 % of the relationships come across as shallow/toxic. Kuch Rang did better in S1. The writing had more depth & the third angles were sane. But S3 is pathetic in all regards. They have a wafer thin plot. None of them are in character (anyone who has watched S1 can tell this is not Dev/Sona/Ishwari but their watered down inconsistent flip flopping versions) & they are showing nonsense to fill up episodes. A character like Sanjana doesn't belong to a show like Kuch Rang. But then again, even this Dev, Sona & Ishwari don't belong to a show like Kuch Rang because S1 had way better writing thanks to Durjoy Dutta
