Sepedeh,
I so agree that Pank has gone crazy, but to be honest, I would have done the same coz I can't trust someone who has lived a lie with me for one yr. Not that she / he has a boyfriend or girlfriend, but that they did not think it fit to tell me at the start itself.
so, jyo has to pay for her lying. but what i dislike is that brij won the round here. he promised to destroy her life and he did. Sad, nah?
Fully agree w/ this! Brij's 'victory' was more the law of unintended consequences, since @ the end of the day, if he is rotting in jail, I'd hardly consider it a victory if I were him. Even if he had never gone to jail, his friendship w/ Pankaj & the Vashisths was over. Pankaj's reactions weren't in and of themselves abnormal - he had every right and reason to be upset @ Jyoti witholding the story of Sushma, if not Brij, from him and she and her entire family pretending not to know him. On that basis, had he divorced her, it would have been fine. However, to show him angry @ Jyoti having a boyfriend, or even fiance b4 she ever met him, or questioning the parentage of the baby was over the limit.

I do not like both the girls being pregnant though. I wish they did not bring in this aspect. Remember the cute baby is going to be a 20 yr old someday and question your decision. Why not abort the child esp Sushma...child pregnancy, baby's dad is a bad egg, and there is no chance of him getting back into her life? Think ahead and don't add shackles to your life.
Yeah, I hate this aspect of the story as well. I mean, from the POV of the show, why promote single parenthood? A child needs both a mother and a father - how dare Jyoti pretend that by being the best she can be, her kid won't need its dad? I understand that these shows try to promote messages, like opposing spousal abuse, etc, but why are they promoting such a socially destructive message? Yeah, both Jyoti & Sushma got pregnant as a result of marital intercourse, but now that both their marriages are dead, they should reconsider. Jyoti talks all the time about leaving the past behind and moving ahead... How does she move ahead w/ Pankaj's baby inside her? Moving ahead means that she does her job, helps the family, and if in future, finds the right guy for herself, go ahead and marry him. Same for Sushma. In Sushma's case, to be fair to her, she wanted an abortion, but Jyoti aborted it. Now, she has no choice but carry the baby to term, but she can still adapt it out once it's born. In Jyoti's case, she should either abort, or have a miscarriage.
That way, it's easier for them to leave the past behind and move on. But there's no way they can move on w/ 2 babies, making it impossible for even very liberal guys to want to marry them.
