I agree Hope. Prats is sticking to her core character. And I think we all agree she's not perfect and she does have several flaws in her personality. What bothers me is that the CVs are trying to portray her as the all-rounder perfect lady who really does love her husband, who really does care for her sasuraal, who really does not have a selfish bone in her body. This is not just for Pratigya, it's for all leading ladies on every TV serial that's ever been on air. Even their flaws are projected to us as their assets. Their mistakes are portrayed as their achievements.
You're also right about Krishna himself being the root of his problems. For one, I have never understood EXACTLY WHAT it is about Pratigya that he loves? Infact, I think I'll start a thread on it to see what people think it is? Sure, he fell for her looks, but why the deewaanapan to go against everything he believed in just to see her smile at him?It's a case of Love is Blind.... his eyes are opened sometimes, like today, but then he takes one look at her and goes crazy in love again? How long can he last on such a formula? I don't think this could be a secret to a lifelong happy relationship?
I really do feel bad for him though, he's given his everything for her, and yet he hasn't got much in return.
In my opinion, Pratigya is a horrible wife.
she is a good housekeeper and a good lover (I guess - he seems to be happy)
she does not relate to her husband as a person, she has no sense of loyalty, she does not put his interests over that of outsiders or family. she does not seek to do things for his betterment
she dresses him up like a chid. mends his clothes, does his laundry, cooks for him like a housekeeper and she makes love to him the way he wants to like a good lover.
bas
there is a ton more to being a wife than just being a housekeeper and a mate
the thing is (and I hate harping on the same tune) there is SO MUCH tolerance from krishna about her shortcomings as a wife that she has no motivation (from him) to improve on those shortcomings
he told her the other day - you have 121 days of humiliatiing me. he was right. problem is now that he knows this and he also knows that it bothers him and hurts him and weakens him emotionally what is he going to do about it?
accept sweet smiles, eyelocks and a few warm moments in the sack to appease his pain, humiliation and anger
his behaviour shows that he is so afraid to loss her that he refuses to make an issue of his expectations from her. everytime he drops it
honeslty he is a good husband. he may not be perfect but then anyone who expects that from their spouse is living in dream land.
