I am the one who entirely blame Viaan for ONS.
And I standby my position.
Yes Katha approach is stupid.
I didn't get how Katha didn't get loan while working as a Lead Architect. I checked internet, she can easily get upto 40 lakh as medical loan. Probably she need guarantor, that Rewa can become. Rewa is as equal experience as Katha. She can arrange 5 lakh. Katha previous boss Chandra sir, he also can give upto 5 lakh. And the Khandani Kangan of her MIL, might be 5 lakh. And the crowdfunding site, may be 5 lakh. Atleast she can arrange 55 - 60 lakh.
Rest she can ask from office. If there is a loan policy in Earthcon, I am expecting it is upto annual package in extreme case (as it is in my company). Her annual package would be around 30 lakh. So asking 40 lakh doesn't look ugly as asking 1 cr.
Asking 1cr from a single bank/person/NGO is plain stupidity.
The more stupidity is - her MIL didn't ask Teji her friend to help her but she can announce in public party that they didn't help her and she arranged money on her own.
But Stupidity and Carelessness doesn't make the person Culprit. It make the person Victim.
People here only point out Katha stupidity only to defend Viaan so called business deal.
If Katha is stupid, so Viaan is harraser. Full stop. By saying he is only morally wrong is a way to sugarcoat his crime.
I don't consider 50 - 50 blame to both party. How in the world this formula calculated. If something happen, it is not necessary that both party have equally involved. It is like saying Salman Khan is only 50% responsible for killing people who are sleeping in footpath because footpath is not meant for sleep but drink and drive is OK.
If sound comes from two hand clap, sound also come from slapping in face.
First of all it is very clear that Earthcon has biases against married woman who has children and they don't hire Mother. This is clearly Viaan fault.
You said Viaan is not responsible for monetary help. He is responsible because in their company there is a loan policy. If there is no loan policy, probably Katha wouldn't ask for it.
Katha didn't tell the reason. She should as it is matter of life and death. But it is because of company policy. You have to add dependency on company profile so that any insurance can be given to direct family member. Let's say Katha is asking for loan for medical help, she hasn't added Aarav as her dependency, then she isn't eligible for loan. She try to get 1cr without saying reason is stupidity. But as soon as Viaan rejected it harshly, she said ok and leaving the room. It is when Viaan take the opportunity to entice her and fulfil his desire.
Again Viaan is the culprit.
Katha clearly ask Loan from company, Viaan has no business to test her character. I don't consider his pure intention. Katha is not a mind reader. Again Viaan is the culprit.
Katha cursed Viaan for asking this shit and leaving. Still Viaan is smiling and ask don't you want loan. If you reject this offer you will not get loan. How the hell this is a test. How can't people see this as harrassment. He didn't ask only 1 time, she rejected and he is fine. He again asked 2nd time when she cursed him and leaving and he can see how annoyed she is, still ask for ONS.
If people want to consider Viaan inner feeling, then consider Katha inner feeling when it is clearly visible that she hesitant with his mere touch on that night. Viaan didn't ask the reason at that time also but he can harrass her next day to know the reason.
If people don't want to consider Katha's feeling, only her word, then don't consider Viaan's feeling as a so called test or how happy he was when Katha rejected it. Did he immediately say sorry to Katha after she cursed him. No.
Viaan inner feeling is clear. If Katha passed the test, he has already plan to say sorry. If Katha is OK with ONS then enjoy. Asking for sexual favor at workplace is sexual harassment.
He said company can't give her money, but he took the money from company account.
Despite her condition to remain as secret, he booked the hotel from company account which many people can access. Again Viaan is to be blamed.
