1. The Orphan - It's honestly laughable how Ruhi never remembers the actual father. Then she has the galls to ask Abhira whether she knew her papa. The amount of eye rolls I give when she was weeping and shaking and screaming at Manish for praying for Akshu. Gurl, you are not the only person in this family to lose family members. Compared to you, Manish's grief is even MORE. Everything about Ruhi screams ME ME ME ME I have the utmost trauma - which was partially contributed by me - but I will NEVER accept that. So I must act like a tantrum entitled brat and force other people to forget their blood relations because other people forgets ME. Like she is the seriously THAT selfish.
2. The Random Stranger - Did she even respect Rohit her husband even once when he was alive? She ignored him, shoved him away, but pretend-wants to stay with his family after he was declared dead all so she could stay being near her ex-husband's brother. The immorality of the situation is absolutely cringe (and pathetic) to watch an unknown woman named Ruhi inside the Poddars house. She didn't even take on Poddar surname as evidenced by the coloring book scene receipt. Like who is Ruhi even? Why does she stay inside a house, why does she spend time with another woman's husband more than the other 'family' members.
3. The Gaslighter - So many of these things. Ruhi would always screech at Ab to stop interfering in her business yet noses deep down into Ar-Ab's legal and full ritual-ed marriage with her inane opinions, insane demands, chugli wali mohalle of reminding the non-legal expiry date of Ab-Ar's marriage . This random stranger poking her nose in a married husband and wife's conversation, peeping at them creepily from their bedroom, making instigating comments about Ab... [I also had a thread previously listing her super abilities of doing this but it sadly got locked]
4. The Homewrecker - So not only Ruhi dances in a married couple's bedroom (and I shudder to even remember how she was sniffing Ar's jacket), she feels the need to bring out divorce papers in order to end a a sacred alliance of marriage which if she disappeared would have moved so many steps ahead. It's Ruhi's entire other woman persona that has ruined three lives - RoPod, Ab and Ar. Honestly, she is capable of ruining lives and shows absolutely no remorse for it. Gurl what you had with Ar was teenage love which you took a step beyond by turning it into an emotional affair (and non-consenting touches like sleeping on his shoulder without his permission). What an absolute terrible human being, forget even woman.
