I am bit confused really. Let me tell I haven't watched the episode or even the prior episodes. But I gauged from the forum discussion that Raghav apparantly tells Pallavi that money matters more to him than her.
Now that's incredibly hurtful and undeniably demeaning. Pallavi has a right to be upset and hurt and mad at him for telling so. But would it be prudent for her to believe it? I mean when we say sweet things to people in love... like I can die for you. I'll cross the thirteen rives and seven seas and climb mountains for you. I'll hang the sun, moon and the stars in your ceiling and other cringeworthy stuff do we actually mean it?
Just how many times have we seen people actually going through with their promises? How many times have we seen people act according to their words. I have seen people having the utmost respect and love for their parteners in their words yet no move is made to that effect in terms of physical action.
And here comes a guy who had no qualms about suffering through humiliation day in and day out from his in laws, getting hit by them and his wife not once, or twice but several times, tolerating his wife's demands and actions to be with her ex husband for her humanity, dressing up as a bloody cook to serve the people who leave no stone unturned to insult him, literally acquising to be in life imprisonment so that his wife doesn't have to suffer through hand burns and would have blown his brains out for her safety.
And the same guy also doesn't think once before spitting hurtful things to her in a fit of rage and temper.
He deliberately hits her where it hurts to win an argument probably. Knows her pressure points and hurts her incessantly in his impulsiveness and acerbic tongue.
What should Pallavi do in this case? I am genuinely out of my depth. What kind of inconsistency is this writers? Is ot your ever increasing dementia or...
Is it deliberate? Are you guys cooking something up to launch at us later unannounced? Or is it just how you have crafted Raghav Rao and Pallavi Deshmukh? If that is the case then kudos to you! This is absolutely amazing. I have probably for the first time in ITV seen a heroine, a female lead being as flawed as the male lead. She is beautiful no doubt, kind no doubt, generous no doubt, loving no doubt... but has her own faults. The flaws which makes her look human.
Stubbornness, selective justice and somewhat deliberate blindness towards her family. The typical faults shown in the ITV male leads whereas the fls are the self sacrificing type.
Kudos and cheers! If that is what you all are trying to portray. đ
