On jay's ultimatum to archana, I think this forum is being very unfair to archana. She gave up manav to make shravani happy even though she loved him to death. All she wanted was to be left alone to live in her manav dreamland. She swore that she will remain single. She said that CLEARLY AND BOLDLY to Jay: Don't you assume that I will ever, ever agree to marry you, she said. Mind you, she said this well after Manav's alleged threat to her to marry Jay. Then shrav came like a thundercloud, said sachu's future would be ruined if she didn't marry, and the poor girl had no option but to agree to be sacrficed one more time. At this point Jaywant should have reminded her of her pledge not to marry him, and told her he will not marry her against her will. He didn't. He was only too happy to marry her knowing all about her deep, abiding love for her ex and the sacrifice of the couple -- did not he and Dharmu hear the "incredible, believe- it -or- not" story of true love between A and M? They did. It was being repeated in the factory like a folklore. Archu looked like death, walked about like a zombie, but our man Jay -- and his counterpart shrav -- could not stop grinning at their luck. Now archana is being asked to stop being even friends with Manav. Unfair, unfair. What will they do next? Ask her to sever her head and place it before the blood thirsty crowd so that her brain does not involuntarily think about manav? Ask her to pull out her heart -- ala hanuman-- to prove that there is no M there? Jay and Shrav ought to just walk of their respective engagements. It does not matter if AM come running after them, beg them to return. They should stay firm or better still each should marry someone else. After all, they are so good at telling other people to marry those that they don't love. I don't know who said it but the decision is not A and M's anymore. It is for Jay and Shrav to realise the sin they are about to commit and stop themselves..
