I wasn’t thinking about Munni and Rithik when making these posts. I agree both can’t be compared. I was annoyed and irritated at Ishita as she has been annoying ever since she started to become cruel to Raman. He has been crying every night. First Ashok has been so cruel to him. Then she started. Shagun was already bad. Now her backstabbing Shagun whose reality she doesn’t know fully is like the last nail in coffin for me because she’s supposed to be the good person. All the time she’s either crying or interfering and thinks she knows best than the child’s parents. I only feel bad for Raman and Ruhi

I guess it depends on how you look at things. You find her annoying but many related to her as a woman who doesn’t have any stakes in the game whatsoever and yet ends up being used as a pawn by Ashok and Shagun against Raman courtesy of them finding out how she has had an antagonistic relationship with him so far. Raman owes her no explanations whatsoever but she could have also simply been cruel and let Shagun keep Ruhi for the sake of ego and petty rivalry. There are no dearth of cases these days where minor arguments escalate to extreme violence even between complete strangers after all.

She certainly could have taken another route wherein she doesn’t do anything and lets the chips fall as they may but she puts her own life at stake there as I mentioned above for her love of Ruhi which she certainly didn’t need to do but she does just for the sake of experiencing what motherhood feels like, something that has been denied to her for no fault of hers. There was no need for her to love a child that belonged to someone else so deeply but it happens and she can’t help herself. Eventually it is she who also makes sure that Raman is able to move past his trauma and provide Ruhi with the love she deserves and needs from her father too.

Backstabbing Shagun about what ? For Ishita it was only about Ruhi's future and when she realised that Shagun is not what she portrayed to be she changed her mind..It was Ruhi herself who chose Ishita over her biological parents in the court and that's when both Mr Iyer n Mr Bhalla started hatching for IshRa wedding..She was a good person that's why she saved Ruhi from going to a person who abandoned her when she was 6 months old to sleep with her boyfriend by cheating on Raman and never bothered about her till 6 years later for custody that too was to humiliate Raman..Shagun manipulated Ishita by showing herself as saint when she wasn't so when Ishita realised that Shagun isn't saint she changed her mind..How did she snatched a child that was already abandoned by her mother for years ?

Shagun deserved Ruhi over Raman ? Ishita choosing to marry Raman over giving Ruhi to Shagun isn't wrong since she saw that Shagun wanted to send Ruhi to boarding school even if it was for temporary time..Also she did saw that Ruhi was always with her nanny rather than with Shagun..Also Ruhi herself chose Ishita over Raman n Shagun in the court..I mean Shagun can manipulate Ishita but Ishita can't marry Raman for Ruhi whom she didn't even loved..Shagun konsi achi maa thi..left behind her 6 month old kid to sleep around by cheating on her husband and never cared for ruhi to even if Ishita did anything with Shagun it was worth watching n fully deserved to be..Ishita actually did good with Raman n Ruhi..

Ok I read the last part of your last post again. I was in hurry reading your post in the morning as I was outside. You are right she does risk her life too for Ruhi. I didn’t realize that part. I was annoying at her betraying a mother as that is extremely cruel since she doesn’t know yet that Shagun wants Ruhi just to impress Ashok or Ashok is abusive towards Ruhi, but I can kind of get past that now knowing that she kind of doesn’t care about her life too and loves Ruhi selflessly. That helps me tolerate her better. Thank you for making me see that as now I can watch her and show better without being annoyed at her lol

Thank you for taking my POV into consideration despite it being different than yours to begin with.

Honestly on the YHM forum at the time the show aired I made a lot of great friends and we never had a single conversation where anyone felt the least bit sorry for Shagun. It was considered a given from day one that biology alone never makes someone a mother, especially if you can walk out on your child like that.

See, Devki Maa had to let go of Krishna almost as soon as the umbilical cord was cut, but in her case we don’t say that she isn’t a mother because she let her child go. What she did required extraordinary strength and the capacity to endure so much more for the greater good of the world. She had already lost 7 children for no fault of hers and was willing to give away her 8th so that no one else suffers thanks to her son. She stayed in that prison waiting for the day her son would slay her own brother and rid the world of evil.

Her act of giving away her child is the best example of a selfless sacrifice that a mother made which was the ultimate sacrifice.

Shagun doesn’t let go of Ruhi for any noble reasons but to pursue her own happiness. To the last minute on the day she’s walking away from Raman, he’s pleading with her and begging her to stay. He knows by then his wife has had an affair with his boss and he’s willing to forgive her and move past the same, endure the humiliation, jibes, taunts and whatever else comes his way so that his children don’t suffer. Ruhi doesn’t lose a mom, Adi doesn’t lose a dad, but she doesn’t care one bit and leaves him and her daughter behind without so much as a second look at them.

We see Ishita finding Raman at his absolute worst - he’s rude, mean, loud, aggressive, arrogant, brash, argumentative as it is. Now, in a usual daily soap this was already not the template for your average hero especially if the show were to last, but it was the case here. The show also premiered at 11 PM, so we knew that all bets were off, they could make Raman be as violent as well as abusive, and still find a way to make Ishita fall in love with him as given ITV it was possible too as anything goes. There have been shows where girls have been married to the main hero against their will and then fallen in love with him eventually - Kutumb, Pratigya, Madhubala to name a few.

We didn’t know how far they intended to take him as a character, and it wasn’t easy to like him given his tone in a lot of ways. It’s slowly that we see underneath, there’s a man who was as sweet as a lamb and who absolutely worshipped the ground that his wife walked on who suffered a betrayal that changed him.

Shagun has Raman at his absolute best and still leaves him for money but Ishita married him at his absolute worst for the child who happened to be his as she had hopelessly fallen in love with Ruhi by then.

So collectively we never cared about Shagun but we did worry how Ishita would cope post marriage with Raman given his own attitude and temperament; then there was his family which was so different than hers.

Guys, I posted the next chapter of my FF: Never Your Wife Again!! last night! Please do read and comment
