I don’t condone cheating. But it’s not me here. It’s Pallavi. It’s Pallavi & Raghav. I’ve been saying the same thing again and again. This is their love story and it is a love story. It is meant to be about a supposed widow finding her love and happiness and marriage again. So no one else is coming for her. Nobody else better is coming to take her away on a white horse. It’s just them both for each other.
Now regarding the cheating, the act done and all that. The act is a huge blot on their relationship, no doubt about it. I’m going to take it right now as if it really happened, even though it breaks my heart.
Here I don’t think Raghav should be forgiven quickly or absolved of it because there were mistakes that led him there. Miscalculations maybe or men are fools situation but nonetheless mistakes happened and I’m not talking about Raghav’s ‘mistake ho gaya’.Do I think Raghav deserves punishment? YES
Do I think Raghav is not worthy of redemption? NO
The way I see it is he needs to make himself worthy of redemption. I’m not negating his love, his commitment to the relationship, to the trust that he showed her, to the laying down of everything in front of her, ready to sacrifice his life, his pride for her. All are absolutely praiseworthy. But this situation is grave that it can make you question everything else or at least doubt. So I’m going with his emotions and intentions. And the fact that that this was not in his sober mind and intentional and repetitive.
It was never his intention to cheat on Pallavi. He himself has confessed that he thought it was Pallavi there, otherwise he wouldn’t have. We saw even when he was drunk that for him, it was Pallavi. His emotions are also clear here. Initially he was affected by Esha’s reentry but there was no confusion about his love. And that’s what makes me feel that if he suffers for his mistake or redeems himself ( if the stupid CVs give him a redemptive track ), then he is worthy of being redeemed. But that is all if Pallavi has it in her to forgive Raghav, to understand beyond the superficial and for her to have that trust that for Raghav, there’s nothing greater or more important than Pallavi.
Many might not be able to digest this, many might not be able to forgive. But here it’s Pallavi and Raghav and the life and the love that they have led so far.
I don’t want Pallavi to be mahaan. But if Pallavi forgives, she is mahaan but that should be something that she takes if that is what gives her happiness and peace.
And nobody can question thatHave I digressed?
At the e.o.d, it’s what Pallavi wants from this relationship. If it is Raghav, his love, his companionship, then even if it takes forever, she’ll find it in her heart to forgive him and stay. But if she is not at peace, she’ll leave. Though then I don’t know what the love story is and we’ll all have been sitting ducks in front of SS ministrations and he has royally taken us for a ride. And at this point on ITV, we have enough shows at around similar time slots to know what exactly constitutes cheating and what exactly deserves a moving on forward. I think every show is having this now.
Pallavi can leave and move forward and then there is no more a love story but even if she stays behind and forgives, I can find it in my heart to understand her and support her. And I would do that to any of my friends if I can see a similar story happening.
Long story short : Zasha’s explanation is what it is. The end game is Raghvi. So now the only thing is here is to wait it out and see how they handle this huge and horrible situation.
But for me the icing on the cake is if it turns out like how Gayu and Ren says : It’s a trap.
I’ll start dancing
I really hope so too 🤞
