After much agonizing and analyzing the whys and wherefores of the dire dilemma that Mohan Bhatnagar has put himself into , all I can quote is a profound statement from one of my fav english soaps ( an intellectual show called "Desperate Housewives"----hehe)

"People are complicated creatures. On the one hand, able to perform great acts of charity. On the other, capable of the most underhanded forms of betrayal. It's a constant battle that rages within all of us - between the better angels of our nature and the temptation of our inner demons. And, sometimes, the only way to ward off the darkness... is to shine the light of compassion." We witnessed the complications and inner turmoil that Mohan has unwittingly taken upon himself, by accepting Ridz dad's proposal-----his ultimate act of charity in the form of self sacrifice , egged on by his inner demons telling him that his mother was right and that Megha didn't care ! I keep on wondering what if Mohan had refused the proposal ? ----but then I came to the conclusion that if Mohan had refused, then he would no longer be the Mohan Bhatnagar , the well intentioned, good and kind hearted man that Megha Vyas and us viewers had fallen hook line and sinker for ! It is these very qualities of genuinely trying to help everyone irrespective of age, gender , cast and creed , acting impulsively upon what ever he thinks is right for that situation ( this maybe due to his being a loner and his profession which requires him to make spot decisions in matters of life and death ), respecting the wishes of elders ( this is where I salute Induji's parenting skills ) etc. are the very qualities that endear Monu to us. So, after much thoughtful consideration and self deridation, I managed to swallow my anger at this unfortunate turn of events---------- and before I fall deeper into the dark depths of depression, I have decided to shine my light of compassion upon our valiant star reporter, as I truly feel that the worst casualty of war in this is none other than Mohan Bhatnagar himself ! So, being a positive person, I hang my head in resignation to the possibility that maybe we might get to see happier times for Meghan in the coming weeks and delude myself by thinking that at now that the "widow marrying bachelor" concept will change to "widow marrying divorcee" ---it might bring more social acceptance and equilibrium into Meghan equation , with respect to both families.

Keeping my chin up and fingers crossed ----praying that God grants us all the strength to witness Meghan's pain in the coming episodes.

I really don't have problem with he being impulsive or whatever and taking to decision to marry Riddhima. But if he has taken the decision, then he has to live with it. Even if Riddhima agrees to divorce or lets him go etc, mohan has to tell about his marriage to Riddhima. He can't keep anyone in dark about this truth. If he lies, that is also not Mohan Bhatnagar.

you are right @sunna_Deewani , that is exactly one of the dilemmas that Mohan will have to face ---and I'm sure he'll face it with courage. It may also be that he needs to stay married for a certain period of time-----before getting annulment legally------but he will surely tell the truth to all.

Also he should not have acted impulsively when he has given a promise to Nanhi that agar meri shaadi hogi toh sirf teri mummy se nahin to nahin hogi. By that logic he should not have married Riddima even if he felt that Megha had turned him down at her house. More than us, bechaari Nanhi will be shattered...not good for a young child starting out in life to be let down so badly by her role model. Wonder how he can ever answer Nanhi if he innocently asks him later " Par Spiderman tumne to mujhe bhagwanji ke saamne promise kiya tha ki tum sirf meri mummy se shaadi karoge aur kisi aur se nahin. Toh tumne kisi aur se shhadi kyon kar li..."
