No human being is all good or bad (Very true else we wld be either God or Satan not humans) Everyone has traits one can improve on. Every person has a breaking point. There is a brilliant saying that hidden in every one of us is a Hitler and a Mother Teresa. (Well said 👏) It's what we bring to our consciousness and how we monitor our own choices and progress along the way that determines which way we are headed in life. Haven't we all been surprised at some news that ..........stumped us to know that a person we know did something so ghastly it was beyond belief and comprehension, and least expected from him or her. One never knows when the dam can break in anyone's life. The human psyche has many a mystery. Many a crime has been committed in the name of love, a very intense emotion by its very nature. I believe ...... Condemn the crime not the person committing it. Everyone needs forgiveness to move on in life, if not this world would be a difficult place to live in. We all want forgiveness at some point in our lives. To err is human, to forgive divine (And I think thats what makes you a better person as you rise above the differences).
I understand my POV may not sit well. But I know I am only analyzing a CHARACTER on a show not any real person. That said, given Krishna's character I do commend him fgoing the or not distance with the "zabardasti" in spite of his intense reaction to Pratigya's continued rejection of him at the hotel. He was not blinded to the point that he lost his senses completely and did something he'd regret for the rest of his life Somewhere in him his love for her stopped him. Again, shades of grey seen in his character.
The creators while promoting women's issues also have decided to weave a love story in there. If Krishna's character was that terrible that there was no goodness in him, how will it explain Pratigya's behavior when the ice around her heart starts to melt and she starts to see Krishna with fresh eyes?😲 How does she go from hating the man whom she holds responsible for a string of incidents that caused her pain and her family humiliation to forgiving him for some of his past behavior and mistakes?😲 How does she go from hating Krishna with a passion and wanting to teach him a few lessons/ get revenge to liking/loving him? Wouldn't she want him to forgive her for the way she hurt his feelings down the road?😕 (Totally agree with this if his character was not redeemble i don't think the creatives wld have created him as the lead actor). Again, Prats is also a woman more in shades of grey not black or white. Anger, hatred and need for revenge are ugly emotions any which way one looks at it (how true just because she is a woman doesn't mean she is free of such emotions). It's self-destructive and destroys the person from the inside out. I hope the creators address the power of forgiveness, without it there really won't be a believable love story for Krishna and Pratigya.
