Pls can I ask a hypothetical question. Let me start by saying I dont justify forced marriage in any way. Do you think Amu & virat would ever got married if it was not forced? Lets think if fake marriage happened instead of forced marriage. Babs would have brought Ex before the marriage even if it was fake to create same problems that actually occurred post Goa. Just before marriage actually could happen( if Amvira didnt run away to be married) then Babs would pull same divorce papers rubbish so marriage didnt happen.
If you look at all of babita plans after forced marriage. Think if Amu & virat were not married & these plans happened. Amvira would be permanently apart ending the show. I know show could have gone many other directions. @Adiandsid said forced marriage could have been shown less disgusting & I agree. Its my view all of Babita plans to seperate Amvira was written 1st. Creators knew babitas plans needed marriage of Amu & virat so dildar/ Bhavani character would support some sort of VA relationship. 2nd writing to make all the above fall in place was forced marriage.
Probably not touching upon the specific questions but...
Ammu withdrew the case by saying whatever happened happened under promise of marriage. Now, i dont know if the court can force it but what if the court says 'Check Muhurat and get your marriage registered... else he goes to jail'. Does it make sense legally? I dont know / i dont think so... but then have they been consistent with legal issues?
Ammu may have been seen as the villain here and his anger would've been justified. the 'vows' he took 'I will make your life hell each day' would feel justified. Perhaps rest of the Ahujas can call her an opportunist, a gold digger... etc... and it will perhaps be a genuine mistake from Ammu too.
They haven't been good enough with giving valid reasons for things - be it fake marriage, forced marriage... and even her claiming 'we did things with my consent, under promise of marriage'... (or currently why Ammu is staying there and why is she in love with him given what happened). Bombs with no valid triggers - bas phod diya, just because they can / want to.
Babs' mela plan too - was it justified? She overheard Ammu saying to Virat 'remember we are faking it... its not real'... So why did she go ahead? She could've kept aloof and let things play out. Probably even faked that some relative in Delhi / Punjab is sick and has to visit them... what would've been the outcome? idk... I dont think they would've got married unless Virat learns there may be some social stigma attached to Ammu, having confessed what she did / gone through these fake rituals.
In a funny way, theirs could only have been forced marriage - at least in the hands of the writers - after all most of their chem scenes have been forced... and now the confession was forced... so... forcing is their way. [But hope it stops here...hmm... dont think writers will go there - Virat kameena hai but utna bhi nahi. Ab tak to ye ek hi cheez hai jiski guarantee mai bhi de sakta hu about him.]
I dont think Babs doing things was their OG plan - best guess is it was Abhiraj who was supposed to defame them and force a marriage like situation upon them, and Babs would've played some other role in it. So, cant say they figured that out first - at least in this pov.
