Appu is right about Shashank and dada parallels here. Hehe.
Both want their wife and daughter to study, become independent etc.
On a more serious note, vinayak saying to avantika she's dead to the family is a new extreme. Yes she broke his trust by going behind his back and getting married, yet a father saying that to his beloved daughter isn't right. No matter how angry he is.
After that, i wonder how she could come to amey's wedding. Wouldn't be fair for the husband.
Time should heal certain wounds, both A and Vinayak are wounded, so is madhavi.
Also, Aaj bohot waqt baad Shappu me shaadi k contract ki baat Hui. Liked that drama. I love when they get serious like that about uncomfortable things.
Especially her, now he knows she ain't melting like that.
