This is how according to me how the story should be to fetch sympathy for Vik or redeem him. I know 90% of the audience seem to already sympathize with him and hate DK
. So not sure if I am correct here. But purely going by whatever set up they have shown and how the separation happened, I am writing my opinion.
Vik by the virtue of his postion and power, has more responsibility. period. Either he is that fair, just, rich business man or a spoilt brat who needs guidance all the time to make a right decision depends on how makers show him take actions. If you watched "wake up sid" movie, thats exactly how his redemption should be. Currently, for a person like me who is NOT invested in the show, or who is NOT a fan of Adnan or Vik, and who is only looking at the story as most TRP aunties do, why should I root for this character without him taking corrective actions?
Mannat need not prove anything to Vik. Remember she is a girl who got dumped at the wedding altar. She is a middle class girl who trusted a rich dude because she loved him. Even if she did mistake, Vik should have married her. Because she gave her everything to him. She lost her mother, who is her only support so fearing the worst with her only child is VERY real emotion. IMO
Vik not only abandoned his would be wife, but also his parents! All his wealth is HIS parent's. I remember few folks wanting him to lose everything as part of redemption. WHY? Because the narrative gave us the feeling that he is spoilt by wealth that he didnt earn. If he had any guts, he would have taken Vish and go away with her, may be take Mezbaani ONLY with him. Staying in Saluja Mansion with all the wealth showed him in bad light. For fans it might work. But will it work for TRP audience or just FL fans?
This is for writers, who write Vik so badly. Now also, he should deal with Dua's truth politely. He messed up! And he should show that he repents/regress. NOT BY WORDS. By actions. DK is shown to be a sensible guy till now. He is insecure. May be the brothers can have a heart to heart talk. During Holi, didnt Vik bond with DK reminiscing their past? Why cant they build upon that? All these Dhamkis and all will not show him in good light. One side he regrets and one side he dhamkis. If he brings his wealth and power to fight DK, then it is a lost case. He is not father "emotionally" to Dua. It is a fact that he has to accept and start building the trust. DO NOT SHOW HIM ARROGANT. He has to fight with Patience. I hope they are writing like that only. If Neetu, Y or Malla influences him to fight the other way, GOD save him! And take away DK from Earth. Thats the only way neutral audience will settle for Vik as dad for Dua.
PS: No I DONT hate Vik. I dont like how ML is being written by the writers. They are not paying attention to him. Because it is easy to put him down to stretch the plot Instead they should focus on his character and stretch it.
