Yup its right to refuse psycho goons in your life and not over hype 'pyaar' and its not weakness but wisdom and foresight . Plunging ahead is not bravery but foolhardiness .
While filmy love that justifies stocking and disrupting other people's (and your own) life, is something to remain cautious of. However,deep love that withstands time and adversity--is something that I feel people should give in to, if they have realized it. I think the concept of soul-mate is beyond the human realm of understanding and reasoning------and ultimately two adults are better positioned to understand what they have in between them than the rest of the world is.
Can every throe of passion be placed above the rules that govern social orders? Not really, an absolute yes/no is probably not the right answer. That is why no mature culture makes laws on love. It's a very individual and personal realization...and generalizing any solution is rather a simplistic view of complex human lives and relations. In my opinion... the solution lies in educating people on the importance of marital commitments, helping them develop foresight,...and then giving them all the space in the world to let them make their own decisions.
In the case of Meethi--her decision making had already been stifled my Damini/even before other people tried to influence Meethi into keeping or breaking marriage with either of the two guys. Damini's concern for Meethi is not wrong----and it is her duty to educate Meethi on dangers of marrying into a family of goons ...which is a very real and practical concern. However her being extremely paranoid on trying to be the one who knows it all, including what's best for Meethi -- is rather uncalled for. Even if Damini did it for Meethi---Meethi never had the space to decide anything for herself on her own.
