And why was he drinking after he promised Pals ??
No matter what Esha did...he gave her the soft corner and opportunity.
Shalini, I saw the eye lock and I can give him a pass for that. To me it didn't feel like unresolved feelings. Yes it's a slippery slope I won't deny but I'd go by bis intentions that he didn't intend to cheat.
I don't absolve him of responsibility though but he was being stupid and naive and not cheating (again slippery slope).
Makers have a habit of taking things extreme. They are going to pin the blame on Esha absolving R completely.
