Raavi has always tried to make this marriage work in whatever way she could. She didn't claim to be in love and then treat him badly. She tried to form a bond of friendship, tried to start from strangers, tried to compromise and adjust. Never even thought about another man, not even dev whom she had loved for so long. Always defended shiva in front of her maasi right from haveli days.
Her mistakes? Calling shiva junglee, jaahil and gawar. Slapping him. But shiva has called her far worse names and insults. How is a woman supposed to react when her character is questioned in the middle of a road? The second time she slapped him to stop his rage. What would shiva have done if raavi had run after gombi with a knife wanting to kill him? I bet he would have slapped her too.
Shiva is more or less looking like an antagonist from whom raavi needs to be saved rather than a hero. They really need to write his character better.
