Legitimate Reasons to Run Away?

Seeing as how Pia and Pushkar eloped, and Rano and Saahil are going to elope (giving way to another Jai-Bani aka Ranveer-Raashi), I was wondering what are legitimate reasons to elope?

Personally, I don't think there are any legitimate reasons. For Pia and Pushkar, the whole disaster could've been averted if she just hadn't been so ambitious, and if Pushkar wasn't so short-sighted.

For Rano, she was right in the first place--just because you love someone doesn't mean that he/she is right for you. Saahil is not right for her because he is controlled by his mother, and Jigz hates Rano. Rano knew that another saas-bahu saga would ensue, so she initially refuses him.

In more general terms, why would anyone ever want to hurt his/her family like that--running way not only shows a weak character, but also a flawed upringing; otherwise, the person should've been able to talk to his parents/family about it.

So, what do you guys think? Would you ever run away and get married if you had no other way and you "loved" (or so you thought in pyaar ka junoon)? How would you justify it?

i would never run away on my wedding night.. i wouldn't want my parents to suffer because of me and for their happiness i would go ahead and get married to the guy.. but hopefully that will never happen to me 😆 😆 😳

i'll agree to that.. yep.. but the thing is pia's just 😡 but rano's a bit more mature.. she knows if she does anythin stupid her sister's gonna pay for it.. that's y she told sahil she doesn't luv him.. even though she luvs him luvs him

good question

i would never run away either...that would bring pain and shame to my family and myself, and i would never remain happy with the man i love because the guilt of hurting my parents would be looming over me!

in sahil's case, he really is a victim or the bali ka bakra, whether rano loves him or not, the point that he does not want to marry raashi should be considered by his family. and its even worse that the woman looks old enough to be his mother!...but in pia's case, she certainly was not the victim, poor jai and bani were (although that is absolutely perfect for us fans, she had agreed herself but cheated everyone at the last moment!

Well said...very mature thought-process reflected there! 👏 👏 👏
Well firstly I wouldn't run away...again for the same reasons mentioned...I wouldn't risk years of my parent's love and upbringing for someone whom I might be in love with. I also wouldn't want to bring any sort of shame and sorrow to my family and myself as well! I really don't know if there any legitimate reasons for eloping other than a surge of emotions taking over your rational thoughts. 😕 And well in the western world at least it's been glamourised and glorified to the extent that couples elope just for the heck of it! 🤢
However, in the case of KS I never was, am and never will be in favour of Pia and Pushkar's eloping episode coz well they had ample opportunity to set things straight but refused to take them up and instead waited till the very last min! But in the case of Rano and Sahil well at least we know that Rano has a good head on her shoulders but of course as I said earlier emotions will take over rationality and she will elope with Sahil but in this case they might hurt the family members but aren't really "cheating" any one particular person. So I wouldn't say it is justified but at least it seems more logical than Pia and Pushkar's little run!
I guess in a nutshell what i'm trying to say is that there prolly isn't any logical reasoning behind eloping other than the fact that you are caught in a web of emotions which completely take over your mind and heart and stop you from thinking rationally!

I agree 100% Piscean...

Eloping is not practical at all because you are hurting years of Love of your family there by wiping your past for unknown future and in most cases you will have no financial security either which would create problems in marriage and your happiness will be short lived as in the movie Chalte Chalte - Shah /Rani... and now Pia /Pushy.. I know some ppl think that Love conquers all but in real life you need more then love to live..

having said that in Saahil/Rano case it is little complicated because Saahil's life is being played with by forcing him to marry an older woman(I am sure Raashi is older then Saahil as Chopras are desperate to get her married) and Saahil needs to stand up for himself and refuse the marriage proposal...I am not saying that he has to elope with Rano but he needs to make it clear that his life is not going to be sacrificed for anyone , not even Anu... Saahil and Rano are going to create more problems for Bania and the Walia family if they decide to elope which does not make sense....
