Ridhima's behavior now a days is beyond anyone's comprehension. Frankly I just can''t figure out what she wants and what she is feeling because every scene of her looks like a stand alone scene without any relation to her emotions before. Its soooo contradictory that it has boggled my mind.
So here I'm just putting down what she is supposed to be feeling now n trying to make some sense of it (I know its of no use but still.....) šŸ˜•šŸ˜•

1. IS SHE REALLY ANGRY AT ARMAAN????????????????????????

This is one thing I just can't figure out. šŸ˜• She is suppossed to be angry at him for leaving her "to die". But her actions in the past don't seem to suggest that.

Lets take her behavior since the time the said incident happened.

After the "body heat" incident when she was at the hospital she was still fighting wid her dad bout armaan. As far as I rem she even left sanjeevni again to find armaan (before sid saved her from some accident). Also before her so called "wedding" she was still very much in LOVE with Armaan to the extent she tried to kill herself for him. All this while she WAS NEVER SHOWN TO BE ANGRY at him for leaving her.

After that she had partial amnesia and seemed to have forgotten about Armaan till KSG's return was decided. Once we knew Armaan was returning voila we suddenly had Ridhima talking to Naina on the phone (completely out of the blue šŸ˜•) and blaming Armaan for leaving her and made us all wonder "where did that come from????"

Then comes the time when she meets him for the first time. She was shocked, stunned, sad, happy but never angry in that scene. But BOOM next day in Sanjeevni she is all mad at him and blaming him for leaving her. After that she has pretty much been consistently angry at Armaan. (The only consistent thing since Armaans return)
But I don't get this behaviour of her's now when she showed no such anger when he actually left her šŸ˜•šŸ˜•.

Some of you might say that she is not angry at him but at herself and is just showing her frustration blah blah.....

But then someone PLSSS tell me why the hell have they NOT showed her FEELING GUILTY for HER BEHAVOIUR towards ARMAAN.
If she is not angry and all this is just a pretense then why in the numerous scenes where she is crying by herself and .feeling sorry for herself they haven't once showed her apologising to Armaan (atleast in her mind) for the way she is treating him. By not showing such a thing the CV's are making us think that she is actually angry at him.

But I just don't understand WHY???????


2. What exactly IS her Confusion??????????


Ok. i know everyone will say that it is whether to choose Ar or Sid but somehow for me her confusion just does not seem to be justified.

The very fact that there is a confusion in her mind to me is proof enough that she STLL LOVES ARMAAN. because if she had moved on then there would be NO confusion and she would simply tell him that she is married and move on with Sid. Considering the fact that she is not doing that it is very clear that her heart still loves Armaan. There is NO other reason other than LOVE that is binding her to Armaan and hence this confusion.

The other way need not be true. With Sid the binding factor is Marriagle and Not love. Because if Love was present with Sid then there would be no confusion. Because If you love someone and you are married to him then where is there a choice that you have to make??? So its clear that with Sid its marriage, committment, respect, obligation, liking but NOT LOVE.

So her confusion is LOVE vs MARRIAGE.

The "Marriage" ( I don't think this can be called a marriage but giving it the benefit of doubt) part I can understand.

But the Love is something I can't understand. We know she loves him because of what we have witnessed over the last 2.5 yrs.
But I have NOT SEEN ONE OUNCE OF THAT LOVE SINCE HIS RETURN.

She has not shown one bit of concern for his feelings, health, happiness, reputation etc since he has come back. Where is that care for him??. She has been practically ill treating him, hurting him and playing with his feeling knowing very well that the poor guy does not know anything and is ignorant about the situation. If she can't show these emotions in front of him for whatever reason then atleast they can show her feel some of these things alone. I mean instaed of her constant self pity (which is getting on my nerves now) why have'nt they showed her once be:
- happy that Armaan is ok and alive,
- guilty for the way she is treating him and hurting his feeling,
- guilty that she din't wait,
- concerned about how he will react when he knows the truth
- Concerned about his reputation in front of the others
- once admit to herself that she still loves him and is sad that she can't be with him etc.

Without all this we are still expected to believe that she LOVES him?? One moment she is being rude to him and next moment she is crying that whom should she choose.

Pls tell me IS THIS LOVE??????????????????????
If it is then WHAT KIND OF LOVE IS THIS??????????????

CV's if u'll are showing nonsense then its ok , but atleast justify the nonsense...

Ridhima's reactions have been soo contradictory that I don't understand her character at all anymore. Hope u'll can help me shed some light on this.

Pls do comment and give ur views about this.

PS: I know its too long and I've rambled on but had to get it out of my sytem.

PPS: Pls this is about the character of Ridhima and NOT the actress to pls don't get them into it. Also this is NOT about AR or SR ao pls stay away from that discussion too.

Completely agree with you and thanks for replying

CV's lost their way with her character the day they started showing that she has developed some feelings for SId. Agreed that at that time KSG was not going to return and they had to show Sidma but it was so sudden and out of the blue that they could simply NOT JUSTIFY how a girl who was madly in love with a guy for 3 yrs could suddenly forget him and start developing feelings for someone else.

And now with Armaan's return they are stuck because the audience wants AR and they can't ignore that she had loved him for 3 yrs, at the same time they have already shown her marriage. So the most obvious way ahead is a triangle and lots of confusion (from Ridz side). They can't show her simply choose Armaan because of tradition , values etc.

i think the CV's are now stuck trying to figure out where Ridz's loyalties lie and are so lost in this confusion that they are unable to justify any of her actions thus completely ruining her character.

Hope they find their way soon.

Very true... If ridz truly loved sid she would have told armaan despite the fact that it would hurt his feelings. But no, she still loves Armaan, If it weren't the case she wouldn't have kept running away. I think she can't look at eye to eye with Armaan because She still loves him, but she must stay away from him for the sake of tradition , culture and her debt to sid who helped her through her rough time. In doing so, she must sacrafice her happiness. Just before SR dans say anything, I would like to say Armaan left ridz for her sake; he himself stared "imagine beautiful ridz aur pagal armaan". He did it for her. Yet we know very well that ridz is his life and he was making scrafices. Throughout the two years what had armaan not done for ridz. Two years or two months, which had more magic and honest, true unique love. Evidently, two years. It goes without saying that ARs relationship is on a scale which no other jodi could match. And ridz is very contradictory, the CVs have been playing with ridz character so much that she has lost so much essence. The only way that Would return is if she has armaan by her side.

Thanks for replying.

And i completely agree with you.

Pertaining to the highlighted part, I agree with what you have said. But what I can't digest is that how is her conscience allowing her to act this mean with him and hurt Armaan's feelings time and again knowing very well that he has just recovered from a serous psychotic condition and is doing whatever he is doing out of ignorance. She keeps behaving as if Armaan is committing a big crime by being close to her, touching her or trying to talk to her. How did she have the heart to ask him why he came back and to tell him that she is not happy that he came????

Is this Love???

If you love him then prove it women.

Welcome to the club. You are not the only one who is so upset. It has started to hurt. They are degrading the values between relationships.The worst thing which has happened on this show is the lack of characterization of each role. They keep on crossing the lines without realizing that its an on-going show. In real life people take right or wrong decisions and live with it. Whatever way they have taken the story is their wish (its a difference of opinion) but why trying to undo/justify that too in most stupid ways. The confusion of the Riddhima's behavior is actually of the writers themselves. Possibly they are in more than two minds, or you can say that they are lost.

I was thinking last night about the same issue and it just came to my mind. If by any chance (if they are the only show nominated!) they get an award for the storyline, I would not be surprised to see a 10 years old kid walking to the stage to receive the award.😊

LOL thats so true. There is no consistent characterization at all. Each persons character takes a complete 360 degree turn according to the requirement of a particular scene or episode without any thought about their past behavior. And then they come up with the lamest justification for it (if at all the care to justify).

LOL agree with your 10 yr old kid comment. Won't be surprised if no one comes to collect the award and they say "Sorry we don't exactly have a story writer"

The answer lies at the CVs doorstep- Make Riddhima the independant and ideal driven woman she was. And get back her girlish charm. Dont waste JEnny please!

Great post Shruti...agree with what u said

I have a new name for Riddhima: RIDDLIMA

If anyone who can figure this girl out, they should receive an award from all DMG viewers.

Sometimes I feel Riddhima doesn't need a husband or a lover, what she needs is a good psychiatrist.
