So Vishakha is still evil. The girl didn’t even try to hurt the main Naagin in her season,who is still alive and happy, and was as thick as thieves with her like Bharni is with Ahana. Vishakha’s husband was somewhat gray character but he got a good redemption and he died. Then in S4 they made her cartoonishly evil. Only person she killed was Manyata and I can tell u that Manyata was a bad mom to Nayantara who immediately forgot her for long lost Naagin daughter. She did not treat her fairly and was behind Nayantara’s insecurities. Also she did kill some members of Parekh family who were innocent but they were minor characters who were forgettable in that season. Nayantara killed Swara who had stolen Brinda at birth or something. Not major kills. Plus in S6 she was a minor villain who was as good as a bystander and her worst crime was supporting Mahek. Yet somehow this major character who was a strong supporter of main Naagins of S1-3 is now a minor villain yet she is supposed to be more evil than Radhika whose kill count is way higher. Radhika has a sympathetic backstory but she deserves a more painful redemption like death if she even wants it. She was raised by a terrorist overlord who did genuinely care for her to some degree but still used her as a glorified lab rat and made her think this was all okay. Still she is trying to harm masses just because of her obsession with hating her sister who doesn’t even know her. There are villains in ITV itself way less evil than her who didn’t get their redemption or happy endings. Neeti from Parineetii was literally betrayed by her best friend and her husband. She was manipulated by her in laws into indulging in evil behaviour yet the show claimed she was worse than her in laws. Fair enough. She didn’t try to turn back or stop her evil ways for even once. Yet she deserved a redemption more than the Chengistani dragon.Thebest thing the show did was to let her be arrested for her crimes without reuniting the best friend and the cheater husband. Pari at least got a good life free of pain while cheater suffered for 20 years. Good. Then there is Rhea Mehra of KKB. Mom and Dad separate. Girl is left with Dad and his family. Dad spoils her but is emotionally neglectful. Dad let’s his criminal sister to raise her. Dad knows his sister has at least murdered a person but doesn’t even make efforts to keep his daughter away from bad influence and bad company, something Mom expected him to do which is basic human decency. Dad’s sister is emotionally manipulative and abusive. She even resorts to physical abuse when Rhea doesn’t do things her way. Dad’s sister makes her feel miserable by reminding her that her mom isn’t with her and encourages her to become hateful and vindictive just like her. She starts acting like her aunt as an adult but she meets a kind lady who is the mother of her hated rival. She is emotionally attached to the lady because she is exactly the kind of mom she always wanted, ironic for her the lady is her own mom all along but neither party is aware. Aunt schemes and manipulates even more to get her into life of manipulation and scheming with occasionally trying to kill her sister but failing. She has 0 kill count and her sister was a fake two faced pick me. Plus the sister’s husband was also a toxic ugly crybaby. She also did have some redemption when she put her life in line to save her sister, reunited her with her husband, tried to actually save her parents’ life from her aunt while her sister was acting foolish and chose to beg the aunt instead of breaking the glass to unbolt and then enter. She also saved her brother in law and his mom’s life but then they made her an evil ally of the aunt who was her main perpetrator. Still her crimes were nothing compared to Dragon Didi’s. Dragon Didi is gonna get her undeserved redemption arc and happy ending.

I am in sync with your points.Vish seems like an angel when compared to Ahana's Dragon sibling Radhika.Would talk about her later first let's focus on Aryamaan-

1-Yes he somewhat redeemed his character even if its in the end by preventing future attacks from Chengistani extremist and arresting Parmeet along with Parmeet's evil sibling but still few points remain-

a- Today he was shown heavily shattered by the reality and truth regarding his Dad's unfortunate death at the hands of his evil Dad Parmeet and his cronies and his character deserves sympathy for that.

b-I have two questions-one what is the reason behind his sudden visceral hatred against Changistanis as it was portrayed today? and second even if he was indeed a patriot then why he never got to the root cause behind his Professor Dad's disappearance or death?

c-Radhika might have been a Spy but when she rejected him 5 years back he never chose the time to reflect and work on his journalistic instincts to look into potential enemy spies rather he wasted those years behind his weird alcoholic obsession for Radhika.

d- Why does he make promises he can't keep like promising Ahana to give justice to her family-did he verify or search the Suri Mansion before putting out the bulletin regarding Looteri Dulhan-nope.How can he have no knowledge regarding the Invisible ink tactic of his dad?

Like a Casanova he switched from Radhika to Ahana or Ahana to Radhika in a jiffy doing fevi-kwik scenes with those 2 sisters.His statements lack conviction.

Its one thing to not trust Ahana but he constantly doubted Ahana's character.I completely agree with Ahana's decision of choosing an independent existence which she should or could have done before also.

And I don't know what is this weird obsession of Naagins regarding surrendering their powers even though new threats continue to emerge whether the enemy is internal or external.More than any future Ananta clan heir its Bharni who deserves the throne and the powers of the Naagrani.

Bharni has never been an emotional fool like Ahana and did whatever needed to protect her Naagrani.She has been the true sister for Ahana more than the Dragon sibling Radhika so why is Ahana not looking at Bharni as a potential successor?

Ahana's throne deserves a worthy Naagin queen like Bharni not some potential bloodline heir.

Getting back to Vish her character has more integrity than Radhika.She might be a cursed Naagin now but she helped her Naagrani Bela whenever Bela needed her rather than being a backstabber like Shesha or Mahek.

Radhika is a top Changistani spy so she will do whatever it takes to help them as well as the Dragons blind in her hatred.Erul's manipulation cannot become the catalyst for her whitewash.She's too deep in darkness now to ever deserve some redemption here.
