Her parents have been bringing her up that way, for a reason, they are protecting her, but if she has not even a bit of sense as to what she is doing is a act of stupidity, then she wld have to face the consequences of being soo stupid! Even Runjhun is innocent, tho a lot older than Devi, but still.. as a girl, we are brought up with a sense of responsible and sensibleness and understanding right from wrong. I don't feel sorry for her. She didn't listen to her elders.. and this is what happens..when you dont!
That sounds a bit harsh. Even when we know right or wrong, we are yet tempted by the wrong. Elders always warn us, yet sometimes till we make our own mistakes we don't learn. Her parents haven't really been good role models, either. So you can't say that elders are always right, either. They might have protected her, but they've have sheltered her more and given her what she needs rather than chide her when she does wrong, and encourage when she's done right. So in someways she is a product of how she's been brought up very much like Runjhun. Runjhun has to survive on her own so she is much wiser than Mahadevi who has always gotten what she wanted. She is innocent, but selfish too and in her selfishness she did put herself in a compromising plight and while it is her own fault, she is still a victim in the situation. It doesn't make her any less of a victim.
