When we look at Krishna we have to see the background that he comes from to understand him. He grew up in a junglee household where education wasn't worth much and your status/money is the number 1 priority. Women are seen as property to handle and use for pleasure and for continuing the family. Despite the way he grew up, Krishna has respected Prats and has always supported her against his family. It is easy to see from the outside that SS and co are evil, but how would you feel if SS was your father? Would you view him as evil especially if you were kept away from his doings? At the end of the day, SS is Krishna's father and he will always love his father--once he finds out the truth he probably won't respect his father, but he will always love him.
Of course there were moments where his junglee background came back to him like during the honeymoon where he was bent on making love to Prats, but he also stopped himself. I believe it was his love for her that refused to hurt her in any way. Also, he couldn't understand the hatred Prats felt for him. He thought she married him out of love. That doesn't excuse what he did, but it makes it easier to understand where he's coming from when you see his background.
Krishna is a flawed man yet despite his flaws and despite the fact that Pratigya and Krishna's views are different, Pratigya managed to fall in love with Krishna. How was that possible? I'll give you just two quotes Krishna said:
1. "Tumko kaise dikhai na diya ke hum hum tumse kitna pyaar karte hain."
2. "Tumne jo kiya humri khushi ke kilaaf kiya. Humne tumri khushi mein apne khushi doondhi. Tumko hamesha sahi samjha.."
Quote number 1 is truly haunting. Hats off to Arhaan for pulling it off with such conviction. See, Pratigya married Krishna under the spell of revenge so his goodness was something she refused to see. In her eyes he was just being nice as an act. Slowly, she couldn't stop herself from seeing the man he truly is and then when she found out the truth about Angad, the smoke cleared up and she saw Krishna for the man he truly is----a man who loves her so deeply that he himself cannot comprehend it. A man who is willing to do anything for her even if that means fighting the very people he has considered his own.
Quote number 2 which Prats is still yet to realize and I'm hoping that she does so soon. I know Prats feels this, but she's yet to realize the extent of it. Krishna has always always tried to find his happiness within hers. When she was distant with him, he would still support her in hopes of making her happy and that she turns around and sees that he does really love her. He went against the world to marry her and then after that he was still going against everyone including Prats to keep his marriage intact. Then when she finally realized that she loves him as well, he was still hiding some of his pain. Krishna is a man who does not approve of feeling vulnerable so he hides it behind a mask of anger and his frustration makes it pour out. When will Prats see his pain--the pain of not being enough for her? The pain of not being able to provide for her? The pain of not having an education so he can match her? The pain of the rejection from her family despite him trying so hard to please them? The pain of hurting his own family? The pain of always having to choose between his parents and his wife?
Personally, I think Pratigya is one lucky girl. She has a husband who loves her more than anything and will do anything for her. As long as he's by her side, she has no fear and no worry. It also helps that he's good on the eyes. đłđ Ka kehti ho?
