Now that untreated trauma plus this loss has taken a toll. Vikrant will be put in more guilt in this phase, when he will learn what Neetu has gone through in past after loosing her child and what she is going through after loosing a child for the second time.
I want to ask something. Just a thought that crossed my mind. When a parent does the unimaginable what's the right thing to do? Is there a right thing to do? Is there a right or wrong reaction? I'm wondering if Mannat made any judgement of RoTu's actions or to her bottomline was they are Vikrant's parents no matter the sin. In one of the bts i heard her saying to Vikrant you make relationships in name only. I'm not trying to judge the act itself. I'm just wondering if Mannat just looked at the relationship only and not what they have done.
When a parent commits something unimaginable in that case morally, the act can be condemned, but emotionally and relationally people respond based on their values, attachments, and empathy. Right and wrong exist for the action but reactions to it often fall into a grey patch. There is no black and white. In Mannat’s case, it doesn’t seem that she judged or excused Rotu’s actions. Instead, her perspective appears to separate the act from the relationship, by recognising them as Vikrant’s parents, she isn’t validating what they did she is acknowledging a bond that for Vikrant, cannot be erased. Her line, you make relationships in name only suggests she is calling out Vikrant’s tendency to maintain relationships without emotional truth or accountability. It reflects her belief that relationships carry responsibility, not just labels. For Mannat, ignoring the wrongdoing isn’t the point, understanding how deeply these relationships shape Vikrant is. So, Mannat choose to look at the relationship rather than pass judgment on the act. That doesn’t mean she found the actions acceptable it means she prioritised emotional reality over moral reality. In such situations, it’s not about choosing right or wrong, but about navigating complexity with empathy and awareness of current situations.
