It can even be true - but wont call it 'genuine'. I'll look at the chronology of events:
- He was ashamed that he is like Rajeev - after Rajeev got exposed.
- He couldn't gather the fortitude to apologise to her.
- He found another way - give her the annulment papers. But had a weird request along with it.
- He tests what he is going through - the hug before the Alibaug eps - when Nimmi asks him to.
- Hears her say "it is you who wanted to know what's b/w us... I just waited".
- Sees her backing him up, going against her mom, fighting for him. (Visarjan)
- Sees her not leaving even after Babs is exposed... says that too (when she is pretending to sleep).
- Sees her objecting to Bhavani-Vandy demand to come home. (kidnapping)
- Hears her mention 'ab cheezein badal gayi hai na? Kab tak woh beeti baaton ko pakde baithenge?'
- Sees her willing to go with him and his family when they don't have a home and perhaps cant stay at her place too, despite Bhavani's demand.
- All the chem scenes can add to it.
In short, he knows 'patt gayi hai'... one down... safe to apologise... in fact it is the safest time to apologise, cause through her actions and words she has already forgiven him. I wont be surprised if she willingly forgives even before he finishes his sentence. She'll be happy that he apologised and again wont be surprised if she says 'usme aapki koi galti nahi thi'.
Now... mission 'Pattao Saasu maa'... and Ammu will be 'happy' he at least considers Bhavani's consent as 'important'. [Though the phrase may not apply completely, remembered "soft bigotry of low expectations".]
I know Pro V or Pro VA readers may find this nitpicking or rude / mean. I'd have preferred him having the fortitude to apologise to her after he learnt about Rajeev or about Babita. But that takes character, which V has lacked since the beginning. And ... he wasn't feeling guilty when Rajeev thing happened ... he was feeling ashamed. He was not sure of her role too. But after Babs got exposed. Drunk apology isn't enough.
Also would've preferred him and others (Jahan) not using words like 'patao' and 'maska'. It is an insult to what he has done in the mela - and you (Sam) have described it well in the reply to afrina (tamasha, assassination etc.) I hope he doesn't add at the end... "ab saasumaa ko patana baaki hai. Pata nahi woh kab maanegi?"
Am i fair in having this 'big standards' for him? I think so. He is supposed to be the ML and not a side character. Its 340 (?) eps now. Will he grow up to half the standards of an ML by the end of the show? Or is he around just as the FL's love interest - the one she is stupid and delusional enough to be in love with?
