That was one lengthy post....(and hence a slighly lengthy reply from my side as well !!!) but loved reading every word of it ! too good ! The way you analysed Jai's emotions and asking god to send Bani to his life earlier in his next Janam was just rocking..Jai's ex GFs namunas eh !!!
I was thinking that in case your analysis was completely anti Jai I wud put one in support of him ! Now there is no need for that ! the poor guy is more worried of 'Bani kya samjhegi'..'Bani badal gayi' and 'bani bani Bani...'. Even his descision was driven by that fact that Bani will not respect him and think that he has taken advantage of her. He is kind of confused that whether he really wanted to take this step. U r rite that if Jai had a chance to speak with Bani without Pia interrupting that things might have been different ! Even I hated him thinking abt Pia but good that he did not delve long into the matter ! If it had been old Jai I think that he wud have thrown Pia out immly ! I guess its only bani's influence which has taught him patience....Also with Bani deciding not to remind /tell Jai abt what happened now effectively Jai will never come to know of Bani's feelings now ..the fammous communication gap now comes to play here...
I completely agree with you Swathi! In fact I hadn't watched the previous episode when I wrote my last post in this thread....but after watching it I'm more in favour of Jai's reaction. I understand that he could've seen Bani's happy embarassment regarding the consummation but he also had the reverberating words of Pia occupying his thoughts. Pia definitely made her point clear that she thought Bani was not happy with the marriage and that she never wanted to be in it in the first place. She kept emphasizing the "mistake" that she made lead to another "mistake" i.e. JnB's wedding. Words like that could def influence Jai's already confused state of mind and make him very uncomfortable in the position that he was. So def his guilt was justified and so was his concern. Like you said it was for Bani more than for himself and that def deserves some credit! It's def not the pretty face that's making me support his character and his stand with the consummation but it's more so his situation and his reaction to the mistaken realisation that Bani's unhappy with the marriage. Well the fact that he's cute is def an added bonus though! đđłđ
