Refusing to eat food not paid for changed the mind set of Krishna as well as his friends. That brought honesty in Kirshna's mind when he traded his ring for the tea stuff. He could have still brought the stuff and lie to her that this stuff was not bought with force.
This tabella could be the worst place where a women would like to stay but why Pratigya seems so comfortable and at ease, was beautifully presented by the Cvs. When there is trust and pure emotions shown by all, tabella was accepted by her as her home. She was never that comfortable and at ease at that thakur mahal and she was seen going about trying to make this place as livable as possible. There were so many moments such as when she was looking towards Krishna with eagerness for his approval of her personality when she came out wearing Tuna's mother's saree. The discussions thereafter brought emotional high points bringing all four closer to each other in a very touching manner to name a few.
What these recent episodes has shown about sore relationships between husband and wife and the healing process, regardless of their past encounters, was very touching. For a young woman adhering to her principals even in the worst circumstance could slowly impact the most adamant male mentality to change. Likewise she saw the good side of all three, trying honestly to do the right things in such a manner that brought smile and appreciation.
I don't know how Cvs will present the Anagad's fiasco and its impact on Kirya's relationship. I wish they do not dramatize too much in humiliating Pratigya and sow the seeds of suspicions in Krishna's mind to bring them to a point of no return.
