Gayatri's reaction was unbelievable, what crap

The story line is compelling, there are lots of skeletons in people' closets because "log kya kehenge" and it leads people to be silent instead of speaking their truths.

Her husband had an affair yrs ago. First of all, when a man has an affair, is it usually limited to just one woman? Exactly. Most people understand, that generally isn't a one time occurence. Most men (and women) who have extramarital affairs, generally don't limit themselves to one person. Secondly, her husband got the woman pregnant and refused to take care of the child or take responsibility for it in any way. Kind human being? One would argue that question. Then that woman confronts him decades later and he lies about it in public and in private.

The only reason he admits to it is that he realizes his wife got jipped of her own child. Radha switched the babies. So now, he feels he can't hide anymore. To show Gayatri, a spitfire under most conditions, to be so completely docile and accepting was ridiculous beyond measure. And for her to buy the argument that it was "just one time that I made a mistake" made it even worse. The very first thing a rational human being would think was "how many others were there?". They didn't bring up her issues with trust or honesty that she is sure to have now. I felt like they were showing a person who felt their feelings or emotions meant nothing at all.

I think Yash's reaction was normal and he portrayed that well. By the way, I just read the other post by someone who had a conversation with the actor Gurmeet who plays Yash, and honestly, it was a little concerning, unless its a kid of course. Fans need to remember, you don't love the actor, you love the character they are portraying. This is their work. You don't know this person. How would you feel if a complete stranger told you that they loved you? This actor is busy, he has no time to read your letter and he appreciates that you are a fan of the show, but he probably doesn't have enough time to spend with his own family/friends for him to have time to read fan mail. Just a thought. I think when I see public adulation for actors/actresses it makes me quite guarded about the sanity of fans. I was at a conference years ago where the actress Madhuri Dixit was part of a panel. It was a professional group of people in the room, maybe several hundred people. Yet when she arrived, grown men and women, many in their 50s and 60s, rushed towards her just to try and touch her. I was just embarassed to be part of that audience that was behaving that way. It would have been more appropriate for people to sit in their seats and allow her to be comfortable and to engage her in conversation during the panel, there was plenty of opportunity to do so. I saw her husband trying to protect her, and he must think people are mad. Sorry got off track, but when I see posts with such adulation for actors, I wonder why. We don't know these people. Let them be.

Sorry for the rant. Just irritated with various parts of this show. They could have done a much better job and trying to realistically portray this type of an event in a family, which by the way, is SO common everywhere. People have extramarital affairs abundantly. It was hard to buy Gayatri's reaction at all, this affects her, Yash, and Akash the most.

1. Gayatri just found out in the most public way possible minus the cameras that her husband cheated on her and wether it is the 1st or 50th time the thing she has to process is that she has been betrayed.

2. Generational thinking would play a very large part in the way she responds to the betrayal and what she has been shown doing is falling into a preprogrmmed "perfect wife" mode. She even says " a husband is God and God doesn't make mistakes". Nice in sentiment, impractical in the real world, but safe in an emotionally fragile state (which everything in her carrage says she is).

3. Aakash as a person or her biological son has not registered yet. For however long it took them to clear everyone out and various family members to find places to brood, Aakash is still a non-issue for her. Her husband's betrayal is, the hurt of the son she raised is, but the young man that she goaded her sons into humiliating still is not on her radar. That she is the mother of a son she doesn't know maybe but I'm still not really sure about that.

4. Yash's hurt has been duly noted by his mother (Gayatri). She has always had a soft spot for him, he has been her favorite and she has let everyone know it and she just found out he's not hers (again this is only biology). For her beyond the betrayal the fact that Yash is not hers through biology has to be devastating. And the look on his face alone was enough to break a mother's heart.

Finally I would like to point out that what is happening is a form of grieving and for as many books, DVDs, CDs, and customs that surround grieving and the grieving process everyone does it differently and separately from others and this woman has a lot to mourn.

So ultimately I would have to say her behavior was understandable for me at least.

In life there are a lot of things to overcome but the hardest thing to overcome is the loss of faith.

I would think that the one thing Pari has learned from all of this is just what we've seen from her lately...

"Keep your head down and your mouth shut".😆

She acted in a very dignified manner and that itself is a great slap to SP!!!!!!!

Her dialogue and composure reminded me of Jaya Bachchan, in Kabhi Kushi Kabhi Gham, where she says to Amitabh Bachchan (her husband in the film) "maa hamesha keheti thi ki pati, Parmeshwar hota hai...par Parmeshwar se kabhi galti nahin hoti, tho aap sirf Pati rahe, parmeshwar nahin (it was something like this..._
