When I say that he knows he was raped, it means that he knew whatever happened between Malini and him that night, didn’t have his consent and it was done through trickery. So, when your consent is not there, then it is rape. He just thinks that both of them were victims. It is a twisted logic, he doesn’t believe Malini raped him but he was raped, (and even Malini.)
He not doubting Malini, there is no logic in it, not even the 7 years of friendship can justify that because of all the contradictory things that Malini did.
The things that he glossed over, the moment Imlie said Malini was still in love with him and is out to get him back, should have rung a bell… like…
1. Malini dresses up Imlie in unappealing way for the party and wears the saree Adi chose for Imlie.
2. When he is dancing with Imlie, she barges in and dances with him.
3. When his wife was asked to tie the tie for him, Malini butts in and does it.
4. Malini comes and sleeps in his bed.
5. Malini gives him champi.
6. Malini makes fried rice for him.
7. Adi asks Malini whether she saw moti roti and she says no. Next day, Imlie tells him that Malini fed it to the dogs, Adi justifies that maybe she didn’t want it to go to waste, forgetting about he himself asking her about it the previous night.
8. Malini tells him she told the lie about KC so that he and Imlie could move on but he forgot that she told him about that before Adi told her about Imlie and that time, she had thought Adi was having an affair with Imlie.
9. They were going through divorce and during the rape case Adi finds out that Malini stopped the proceedings, and when he questions her, she says she was confused and stopped it and he is like “it is all cool.” without even thinking about Imlie telling him that Malini wants him back.
After the court case, Malini was monopolizing all of his time and Imlie even pointed out that Malini has “suddenlyji” moments, an average human being would start taking note of all these things, specially when it is creating issues between his wife and him. His solution is ignore Malini and she can never affect our relation, if he had said that before JM night and before Malini was pregnant with his baby then it would have been understandable. But now for him, JM night, Malini pregnant with his baby and all are no issue that Imlie or he should be concerned about. So, my thinking is, if he is not concerned about it, why should I be concerned about it?
regarding, Imlie not thinking about Adi when she let Malini stay, Adi brought Malini to T house and then asked Imlie to take a decision. Imlie can’t still call her his rapist when he clearly doesn’t believe it and is no longer concerned about it. It had come to his baby at that point.
Regarding Adi never getting the choice of whether he wanted the baby, he took the decision to have the baby because abortion or not taking the responsibility of the baby was never on his mind, immediately after Malini revealed about the baby, he had deleted the video out of love for his unborn baby. If a thought or conflict was in his mind regarding the baby, he wouldn’t have deleted the video.
