Hello folks !!

Posting here after long time as I hardly get time to write but I really needed to get this out.

I love all the characters of this show A LOT including vikrant only coz I can relate these characters to people around me. They are believable as all of them have good qualities as well as flaws and thank God for that because I can definitely not watch a show where characters are either white ( sacrifice ki murti) or completely black ( trying to create mis- understanding or going extreme with plotting and killing). Such shows give me headache.


I really like the fact that how this show is so unpredictable and every character has a different perspective. But I feel we as audiences have not evolved and try to see all characters as white and black.

Well from what i believe the makers aren't trying to shove down goody good people down are throats by making others extremely worse. They are rather showing how every character has a different way of reacting and getting things done, each following a different set of ideals and with different mentality irrespective of the fact whether their actions are right or wrong.

For instance, Dr Ansari believed that he was right in letting the neele baba live his life without getting treatment coz baba wanted to live gloriously as blue baba even if meant early death but later his perspective changed and he wished he had treated him earlier. Neither of his perspective was completely wrong even though the latter will always outweigh the first coz nothing is more important than life and henceforth dr Ansari learnt a valuable lesson. Though this show is about doctors who are considered next to God for saving lives , I am glad they are shown as human as possible.


Let's take another example of Dr. Sia when a girl came who had lost weight by liposuction in order to get married and Sia felt that it was ok as it was her choice and noone else had the right to decide for her. I absolutely loved Sia then coz she was being real instead of shown giving some gyan for the sake of justifying her good character.


The characters here are all selfish, strong headed ,complicated and most importantly real. It is us who want to see the characters as typically ethical, doing what is right from our perspective ,if not we say their character is being assassinated by the makers . Sorry to say but that's not true.

Coming to the main topic ,Deepika is doing nothing wrong in helping Vikrant and protecting his career from getting destroyed. I would say this even if V and D had seperated due to infidelity or in any other worse scenario.

Vikrant is who he is . He belongs to that group of people who do want women to work but what he was asking from Deepika wasn't to put her down or anything , he wanted her to have a career in a field where she would be able to give some time to household which would have not been possible had she been a surgeon. When we marry we do keep demands and conditions so that we feel more compatible with our partners not to curb their dreams. And remember what Deepika said to him when she broke her engagement that it was not the fact that he doesn't wants her to be a surgeon but his adamant nature of not trying to even understand her passion for surgery ,she didn't want him to dismiss her dreams instead wanted him to give a chance where both could pursue their careers whilst balancing their personal life as well. And when vikrant didn't bend , Deepika made a choice to choose her career over the man whom she loved but had no understanding equation with.


10 years later, when both have moved on , and they come face to face we see both having feelings for each other, hearts still hurting with the separation. Vikrant is still madly in love with Deepika and seeing her has re-ignited his feelings for her that he had chosen to suppress. He had a wife and was trying to move on in life and felt a baby could maybe make their loveless marriage joyful.

He is clearly unhappy in his marriage but never thought of getting out , only thought that maybe their equation may improve one day .But love cannot be forced my friend. Vikrant did a blunder and destroyed his life as well as his partners and Deepika's love life completely. While Deepika is still single vikrant and Aditi are not soul mates too.


V and D -- Two hearts that have suffered agony and pain of heartbreak are beginning to heal in each other's presence. Vikrant feels giddy in D's presence and D despite being ethical and trying to keep V's behaviour in check is not able to completely behave indifferently .How can she when she has shared a beautiful past with this same man who has loved her cared for her . It was D's choice to call of the engagement not because she suddenly got over vikrant but because she felt in order for their relationship to work V needed to respect her feelings and not dismiss them and dictate his own.


How is Deepika wrong in helping Vikrant? I am absolutely baffled by some strong reactions here. What do you expect her to do? Destroy the man she once loved and will that make her feel any better? Go and complain his wife ? Will that change the husband wife's equation and make it better or create further problems? V who is not in a state to handle himself and is on a self destructive path imagine the extent to which his feelings for Deepika are rooted . He is savouring every moment of being near her. The way his face lits up when she smiles is a proof that he wants to be the one in her life to give happiness that D truly deserves. And D ,well the fact that she hasn't thrown away their memoirs proves that in 10 years she couldn't move over Vikrant. She still loves him but is careful to not cross boundaries because V is married .

Right now V is the only person who is showing concern about Deepika which not even her own parents did. Pouring his love and affection by doing small and simple gesture such as lunch and dinner, thanking her for her support and showing her gratitude for doing things against her wishes for V .

How can V not be drawn towards this girl and how can D stay aloof still ? How can two lonely souls not think about bonding together? Vikrant wasn't a characterless person . He and D had a fall out and V was so engrossed in proving D wrong that not only did he go after Deepika to sort things out he went ahead and chose to marry a girl he didn't know forget about loving her. When today vikrant wants to mend his ways and recover from his past why shouldn't he be allowed to do so.


Didn't Abhay do the same? He knew he didn't feel for Siya the way he felt for D yet went ahead with the engagement instead of telling Sia the truth. He infact thought he could change his feelings for D similar to what Vikrant did . How do we know Abhay is the right one for D ? Can't they have mis understanding and compatibility issues too ? Moreover love should be from both sides .Till D reciprocates and names the person she loves , Abhay doesn't have the right to judge her when he himself had feelings for other woman despite being in relationship with Sia. Also if vikrant wants D in his life he will have to tell his wife .But right now he cannot because D has shown no sign of reciprocating his feelings and by bringing his wife into the current scenario will mess up the situation and kill even the smallest chance he has with Deepika.


Well with what i understand , If V doesn't even try he will forever be stuck in a loveless marriage with his wife which is not good for his wife as well. For a relationship to work both people need to feel for each other , it cannot be one sided and I don't see vikrant being able to do that. And if in 10 years he cannot develop feelings for his partner what makes you think he can now? Deepika or no Deepika his is a failed marriage and no partner should continue like that . Vikrant who was confused can now see his goal and a new happy life with Deepika and it's not wrong for him to think about their happiness.


Rest to each their own. I am not shipping anyone.I am open to whatever D choses

I believe Vikrant should free Aditi from this marriage without treating her like a fallback. It is absolutely not right for him to pursue Deepika while keeping Aditi in the dark, that's called cheating. Living with a married man while lying to his wife is already crossing boundaries. I don't think it's comparable to Abhay's situation. Simply having feelings for someone isn't equivalent to having an affair, one needs to act on those feelings. Abhay and Sia had broken up before Abhay confessed to Deepika. She doesn't have to reciprocate, nor am I saying Abhay is the best choice for her. As for Vikrant, I don't think he's changed at all. He's as manipulative and selfish as ever, even more so now. I have no sympathy for him, whatever sympathy he may have had from me he killed by putting all the blame for his choices on Deepika. I'm not gonna applaud this guy for doing the bare minimum of gestures while Deepika literally puts her career and dreams on the line for him. If Deepika wants to jump in that toxic well, that's her choice. As a viewer it makes me unhappy to see a character making self-destructive choices.

We expect more from a married man. If he's in love with D maybe divorce his wife first as he's unhappy and pursue her then. Stop saying ILU everytime to make her uncomfortable.


D- idk will reserve judgment as she's going somewhere and I don't like it 😂

Vikrant have changed from bad to worse. He wanted a woman who will take care of the household , its fine. But what is not fine , is to blame deepika to for all his actions.its not fine to keep expectations from your ex and demand it to be fulfilled. Men like vikrant are cowards, they will never divorce their partner , but will go on to have affairs, blaming them .They are not truthful neither to their partners nor to themselves.

Per say deepika is not having any affair , but its wrong to live with your ex who has still feelings for u without informing his partner.i hope deepika will take wise decision.

Regular indian audience will expect deepika to save vikrant from his drug addiction with her unconditional love.They will expect her to be the ever great Indian DIL who is allowed to do her job, but make sure she is always available decked up for family dramas . And yes she should sacrifice her dream job and take up full time job of problem solver of the family.

I expect deepika to kick out vikrant, achieve your dreams and be happy.

Well what you are saying is a very very ideal situation but does that ever happen in real life ? Ideally Vikrant should have gone to Delhi, told Aditi about his drug problem and that he cannot get over Deepika and take a divorce and then pursue her, that way atleast his partner would be free and not stuck with him. He can then come back to Deepika and propose her in that situation even D wouldn't have to compromise her morals and she can chose to be with or not be with Vikrant guilt free. No person is ever this loyal to their partner ( irrespective of however good equation they have shared in past) to tell them beforehand about the impending possibility of an affair they might enter into.


When V came to Mumbai he hadn't thought about divorcing Aditi . But seeing Deepika and being around her made him realise that the happiness he feels around her cannot be felt around anyone. He could never truly love his partner no matter what. When a person falls into a bad addiction, it is usually done to relieve themselves of pain and suffering they undergo in life. Again i would like to repeat Vikrant is not a villian, he is just not a saint either .There are men who fall for other women after marriage and cheat and I am not justifying their actions at all. But we don't live in an ideal world at all. Had Vikrant been able to let go of his past and fallen for Aditi he wouldn't be doing drugs or pursuing Deepika at all.....forget about hiding things from his wife. Remember V told D he has been taking drugs since 10 years and still managed to hide that from his wife, what makes you think he would tell her now.


If you ask me i would say infidelity should be a criminal offence and no one should be allowed to indulge in it. But no-one is ideal in real. All have weaknesses which messes them up and which in turn affects those near around them.


Also i disagree with you . I don't think Deepika staying with vikrant means her boundary being crossed or chastity being affected. She is not running into his arms and making love to him . Also it's not her fault of V has chosen not to tell his wife. She is only trying to help Vikrant with no other intentions or hidden motives and she definitely doesn't want V to run behind her .So people questioning D are actually questioning her intent which is wrong according to me.


Whenever an extra Marital affair happens, the guy first gets involved with a girl and when she reciprocates only then the husband proceeds to tell his wife that to if he has guts to leave his wife and re marry his girlfriend. In most cases husband has affair with girlfriend behind his wife's back 🤬🤢. And no I don't support any of this i am just stating what really happens and it's one of the worst things going around us.

Here V has told D that of she accepts him back he will divorce his wife. And once Deepika accepts his love he will definitely do that and irrespective of the fact V tells his wife now or after it's going to hurt her ( divorce/ separation always does) the same as he has hidden about his addiction and maybe about Deepika too since the beginning . Also i fail to understand that in 10 years couldn't Aditi feel her husband's wierd behaviour or their chemistry lacking . Has she ever thought of getting out of this love less marriage we are yet to know. Drugs is not something one can hide for long , and if V managed to do that means he must have been keeping distance from A mostly . Anyways that we are yet to see.


Another thing I believe in second chances. The situation is obviously complicated here as V is married despite being in love with D. If Deepika wants V in her life, it isn't stooping low or compromising her character. Nobody is going to give her a medal or character certificate for shoving off her lover. She desparately needs somebody to love and care for her in her life . And whether she develops feelings for Abhay or still can't move over V depends on her totally. We cannot control how she feels for anyone nor can she. If two people love each other and decide to stay together any moment they should. I will not say that when two people committ they should be together coz everyone forgets about their commitment in the long run and there is no point in dragging a marriage or relationship when there is no love in between.


Even though Sia claims that Abhay cheated on her, but wasn't it Abhay who told Sia the truth about his feelings. Abhay only needed some time in order to gain confidence before telling Sia the truth coz he knew she would be heart broken. But piroz literally poked his nose and made it even more difficult for him . Abhay may not have loved Sia but he definitely cared about her a lot and he was feeling guilty about loving Deepika in his heart while being with Sia physically. He did tell Sia that he is not ready for engagement yet somehow he got forced coz he was thinking about sia's father and her feelings before his own. And when he did gather courage to tell Sia the truth what he did, he saw V hugging D and impulsively got engaged to Sia. So how does that make him better than V when he did the same.

The fact is humans are messed up in real. It takes time to figure out what one really wants. While V has done that Abhay was still confused whether to go behind Deepika or focus on himself. Then after seeing Deepika's foul mood he went ahead and told her the reason behind his behaviour , but he cannot claim that she loves him just because she befriend him or showed concern about his mother. D did the same for Sia and would do that for her other juniors too. If spending time together made Abhay fall for Deepika it's not necessary she has fallen for him too.

Love cannot be forced.It can happen instantly or can also take ages to happen or it may never happen at all. Whatsoever dealing with emotions is one hell of a complicated job and is what makes lives messed up.

Vikrant has been married for 10 years and has a kid.He dosent love his wife , is doing drugs and is ready to just go on with his loveless marriage UNTILL HE AGAIN MET DEEPIKA. So here again vikrant is assuming victims role, he couldn't love his wife because deepika rejected his love, he started taking drugs because aditi couldn't make him fall in love with her , now again even if he have affair that is because deepika was available.

Deepika is this one thing that he couldn't get , now he wants her back.IS IT DUE TO LOVE ? NO. Sure there is past attraction, adamancy in getting the woman who once rejected him, but not love.

Regarding wether deepika staying with vikrant is right or wrong ? It is not a sin , but not right either.There are some boundaries u should not cross , for your own sanity. Deepikas intent is good , but was it needed ? Again no.

Why should she take the responsibility of deaddiction of her ex lover who is currently married and has no intention of informing the same to his wife? It's not that v has no family, there is his sister why don't she take that responsibility? if deepika is feeling responsible for vikrants current state, she is already heping him by not reporting but to stay with your ex who still has feelings for you, who proclaims he dosent love his wife is like pushing yourself into a frying pan , anyway she will get burnt.

Don't you think vikrant is selfish ? If deepika loves me back, I will leave aditi, but if she dosent I will go back to aditi.will such selfish man have enough courage to face society if at all they had an affair and the news leaks.? Deepika needs a support system , but it should be some one who can support himself, not some one with liabilities and family baggage.

brilliant post👏....you summed it all what i wanted to convey.

I have to agree that relationships and emotions are always complicated, life is not easy and people are usually messed up in real life too.

Aditi and vikrant are in a loveless marriage and nobody should spend their entire life this way. I feel more than vikrant its aditi who need to get out of this compromised relation, 10 years is more than enough to realize what sort of marriage you are investing in. Aditi would be in a better and happy place without vikrant .

We have witnessed vikrant's painful situation when he was treating conjugal twins where they wanted to get free but couldn't , similarity Its also stressful and suffocating for vikrant too living with someone whom you don't love. Unlike conjugal twins, he has option to come out of this baggage but never tried instead consumed himself in drugs. At this moment he need to get out of this, get detox and start his life again with or without deepika bcoz he can't consumed deepika also if she doesn't want him in his life.

Deepika was also leading a completely different life from past 10 years but she chose to become wiser instead of consuming herself in miseries so that's makes the difference. But she is lonely too, she also needs someone by her side. She doesn't deserves strong reaction from people out here calling her by names, she isn't sleeping with vikrant, she is not having EMA with him, she isn't breaking his marriage, its not her responsibility to inform aditi when vikrant and his family not taking responsibility.

Now what need to be done-

1.Aditi and vikrant need to decide on their relation

2. Vikrant need to detox his body ,mind and relation

3. Its upto on Deepika if she want to be with V or not only after if he get divorced.

4. Abhay is nowhere in this mess , its individual call, aditi-vikrant and deepika
